MILLIONS FOR PROTECTION.

The president of the national board
OF underwriters in an address in New
York last month condensed the facts
with reference to loss Of property by
fires as follows:
The fire losses in America are from
ten TO thirty times per capita those in
foreign countries.
The population of the United States
has increased 70 per cent. since 1880;
the fire loss 1874 per cent.
The cases of fire per capita have
increased $40 In the five years from
1903 to 1908
The lives lost in flames in 1ses
numbered 1,44s. The injured were
1854
The average annual fire loss in this
country amounts to quarter of a bill
lion dollars.
For the first three months of 1909
the loss was So million dollars.
Fire departments cost the taxpayers
$10T063,524 yearly. Water works
costs chargeable to IRE service amount
to S245,671.e76.
This tells the story in a nutshell, and
what a story it is. There is, he finds.
Improvement in the skill Of the fire.
men to fight fires and in all the means
Of fire lighting, but the builders keep
putting up the same old firetraps.
More attention should be paid to
building for permanence and for safe
ty, and the laws should require the
proper care Of the premises, and then
should be enforced.
These things, in the opinion OF the
'.rnderwritsRr, would greatly reduce the
humber of OTnfiagrations.

PEACEFUL DRINKS.

When it comes to drunks there are
only two classes, those who are good
natured but senseless and those who
are ilI-natured and scrappy. There is
under this classification only two ways
to treat them and these are laid down
by Chief Of Police Guilty Of Spring
field, Mass, as follows:
Il maintain 1t is more essential in
many respects for the poor man to be
taken home than It is for the rich fell
low who has the means to care for
himself after having had a hot old
time. I think 1t wrong on principle to
arrest a man who is orderly, even
though his manner may show he has
been drinking. 1t is our business to
keep the streets orderly, and ! am
emphatical1y In favor Of dealing in a
positive and summary manner with a
scrapper, tough or crook, who is Gre
ating disorder, whether he be sober
or intoxicated"
This is a humane way of viewing
the matter. There is no reason why
there should be favoritism shown to
DRINKS anywhere. they are right on
the level they have brought them
selves to and it is useless to try to
make it anything but what 1t is. Max
ing the drunk source of municipal
revenue regardless as some cities do
is not commendable. The humane
spirit of Springfield's chief is worthy
of being copied in all parts of the
country.

CONFEDERATE DEAD ON UNION
SOIL.

There is about to be erected at Fort
Delaware in the state of New Jer-
sey, a monument to cost $500, in
memory Of the rebel soldiers buried
there, the total number in the Nation
al cemetery at Salem being 2,400 off,
GERS and men. Commenting upon this,
the Newark News says:
The intention Of the government
to build this monument, corning so
soon after the raising OF a shaft to
the memory of Wirz. who was hanged
for the dreadful. deadly treatment of
union soldiers at Andersonville, calls
to mind the awful records of prison
deaths during the war. There were
about 10000 union men captured by
the confederates; half Of whom were
paroled' and the other half confined in
Libby, Belle Isle, Andersonville and
other southern prisons. or these 36. 900
died Of starvation and disease or were
shot down by sentries The union
forces captured 4760O0 confederates, Of
whom $4,000 were sent to the prisons
in the north. OF these 10000 died. In
addition to the monument at Salem.
the government is arranging for the
better care of the confederate cerne-
teries in Ohio and Illinois, all of which
tends to show the passing Of the war
spirit and the return of the perfect
spirit of amity, fraternity and peace"

NEW JERSEYS ENTERPRISE.

THE CAMP AT NIANTIc.
Old Ways Are Changing, but Not All
for the Worse.

There is something serious as well
as comical in the lament of the poll
tcians that the national guard will
take the field in Massachusetts, this
summer, accompanied by the regulars
of the United States army, instead of
going into camp at Mantle, accom-
panied by the regulars of the republic
can party in Connecticut. For years
the encampment at Mantle has been
a place where almost equal emphasis
has been laid upon military and po-
litical manoeuvres. Governors have
gone under canvas, accompanied by an
array of glittering staff officers, whose
military information has extended lit
tie beyond the recently acquired
knowledge that sabers should be worn
on the left side, and followed by an
array of big office holders, little office
holders, office holders in prospect
and the swarm of town chairmen and
organization workers, whose capital is
