GOOD WORK BY DIR. ELIOT.

H ORMER President Eliot, of Harvard, has
Il rendered public service III his appeal to
the American people to prevent the grabbing OF
coal lands and water powers by monopolies. He
has aroused an interest that has sumbered con-
cerning the preservation of our natural resources.
During the tariff debate the preservation of our
resources was rudely brushed aside before the
onslaughts of greedy manufacturers of paper who
would root up our forests If they could put
little more money into their plethoric purses.
Conservation was thrown to the winds when
greed appeared in the Senate. Now that there
IS no danger of legislation that would really pre-
serve the national wealth, the campaign for
preservation is resumed in talk, but out of this
talk something tangible will come. Many men
in Congress for long time have been trying TO
get laws that would safeguard the national
wealth but with no success. All the laws on the
subject seem to have been framed in order to
make il easy for rich men to seize public prop
crty for private gain. And these rich corpora
tions, once in possession will levy heavy tribute
upon the people
In his address Dr. Eliot instances the coal
fields of Alaska as needing laws for protection
against private rapacity. The monopolization of
water power in the West has also gone on at
a rapid pace In the coal trust of PENNSYLVANIA
we have an example of what private monopoly
will do with things that should be owned or con-
trolled by the public.
1t is well that former President Eliot has spok-
en- his word of warning. Private corporations
are constantly trying TO secure control of oub-
lie utilities Many cities that own water works
or gas plants must be on their guard at all times
to balk the schemes Of corporations that seek to
secure control Of such utilities. Most writers on
these subjects advocating public ownership
of such utilities. but we'll organized and mower
ful capital is always eagerly seeking monopo-
listic rights.
During the last session OF Congress Senator
LaFollette OF Wisconsin, urged the passage Of
bill which would protect mineral lands and
similar bills pressed for the preservation of
water power, but the influence of private inter
ests was so great that no safeguarding legisla-
ton has been enacted. Resources that still re-
main public property should not pass ont of con-
troll of the nation

expression Of some primitive emotions Of
man. A crowd and its emotions are a
plain form Of evolutional drunk and de-
bauch into which the so-common- -as-to-be
characterless man enters as naturally and
as unconsciousiy as q dog into fight II
Is growing pretty evident that the lung
splitting campaign crowd does not amount
to a row OF pins in determining elections.
This country has been the worlds fore
most exponent OF the crowd and the
shrieking revival reformer. Surely after
the last thirteen years OF experiences with
excited election exhibitions all must real
lie that the crowd and its doings, its en-
tire personnel and its promises are an
utterly discountable and negligible force
IN great movements. Every sign of the
times shows that blessed revolution is
taking place In American politics, psy-
chology and thought; an immense part OF
the population is listening to the calm,
deliberate utterances of the pulpit and OF
the press, and refusing to get drunk with
the crowd or with the crowds influences
at work with red fire in parades or on the
cart tail. No candidate ever drew such
crowds as Bryan his votes we're always

SCHOOLS SHOULD
TEACH COOKING
Views Of Woman Appointed
to New York Board of
Education

NEW YORK. Nov. 10.--Mrs. Chris
tine Towns, the fourth woman named
by Mayor Mcclellan TO serve on the
Board Of Education Of New York city,
is by no means a suffragette. She is
essentially feminine but she has some
advanced ideas as to education.
Il am of the opinion" said Mrs.
Towns, today, that too much time is
allotted TO athletics in the public schools
today and not enough time to what
one might call the domestic arts /
think it is worse than nonsense for girls
to be taught athletics and in many
cases I am sure it brings about physi-
cal harm.
IF cooking. housekeeping and clean
liness swere inculcated into the minds
of little girls it would be better for
them.
Another thing that strikes me is that
the children Of the congested districts
have too much time for the streets
If their work was mapped out for them
a little more Systematically these chill
dren would not find so much time to get
into mischief
Il believe firmly in co-education in
stitutions, think it is a great mistake
to segregate the sexes. Up to the
time a child is IL or Is years old il
is better for little boys and girls Ia
study together 1t is the little girl
unaccustomed to meeting and studying
freely with boys who meets them on
the street corners after school"

SAYS BRIDGE WHIST
AIDS GAMBLING INSTINCT

CHICAGO, Nov. 10--"Bridge whist
and the bargain counter are the re-
spectacle outlets for the gambling in
stinct of modern women. While men
are accorded the gaming table, the
races and similar scenes. the women
must resort TO the bargain counter in
order to satisfy their inherent desire
to get all they can without a fair re-
turn"
These arc two extracts from a lee
ture delivered by Miss Sophronis
Breckenridge. one OF the deans Of wo-
men at the University Of Chicago, in
which she arraigned the members of
her own sex in scathing terms Miss
Breckenridge was addressing the
school of education at the university.
Woman's slavish devotion to. the de-
crees Of fashion also came in for the
shafts Of Miss Breckenridge strong
~ worded criticism.
Irrational. lawless changes in the
fashions for women are economic
wastes" she said Fashions, more
than the people who wear them. wear
out the garments Of the modern wo-

After
La Grippe

Il had suffered several weeks
with LaGrippe. Had pains in
my head and eyes. 1t felt as
though there was a heavy weight
on the top of my head, until it
seemed that my brain would
burst. I was so nervous that
I could not rest or sleep. When
l dozed off l would awake with
sudden jerking of my whole
body. DR.. Miles Nerwine, Heart
Remedy and Nerve and Liver
Pills cured me. A number of
friends have since realized the
same benefits"
MRS. ALVIN H. LOCKS,
Seabrook, N. II.
The after effects of LaGrippe
are often more serious than the
disease, as it leaves the system
in a weakened condition that
invites more serious troubles,
such as pneumonia, etc.

NEEDS A PRESS AGENT.

&URELY curious New Workers have not
- heard of the ripples in the journalistic sea
of Wilmington caused by the Emma Goldman
incident in Philadelphia. and perhaps they
have no knowledge of the trouble of Emma's fol-
lowers in Philadelphia, or of efforts of Frank
Stephens TO preserve free speech.
Emma and Ben Reitman, King of Hoboes,
held a meeting in New York City last Sunday
without police interference, and without much
fuss. They blew their trumpets, but only n
handful of people, 200 or thereabout, responded
and each person contributed IS cents to the
cause. Miss Goldman talked about the execu-
ton Of Professor Ferrer, the Spanish Anarch-
ist and the money collected she said would go
to the five thousand prisoners in Montiuich
prison
Another meeting is to be held to pay tribute
to the memory Of the Anarchists who were
hanged in Chicago some twenty-five years ago.
They arc heroes in her eyes, heroes TO talk
about but not to initiate, and her audience will
probably not be larger than it was on Sunday.
Even Anarchists realize that there is not much
glory in being strung up, and Emma herself does
not want TO take chances in that direction. Miss
Goldman, however, is probably in need of a new
press agent in New York City. Her audiences
are too small TO make her pocket book fat.

Editorial
Opinion
Pennypaeker and the press.

FtnnypaCkef ana tne freSSs
New York Evening Sun.
Once more the Hon. Samuel w
Pennypaclzer Of the great State Of Penn
sylvania lifts up his voice in lamentation
over the wickedness Of the daily news
papers. In the North American Review
he lays down the proposition. as a text,
that "the doctrine of the Liberty OF the
Press. though embedded In the Constitu-
ton OF the United States and In the Con-
stitution OF all OF the states, Is to-day, in
It's application TO existing conditions OF
life. little more than a shibboieth.'
The good Doctors diagnosis Of tho dis
ease In the body polite, together with his
exposition OF the remedy. is disappoint-
ing. He points with pride to the Penn
sylvania act of 1903. and reminds US that
II Is still on the statute book. But could
there be a more conclusive demonstration
OF the futility, the absurdity Of the
Pennypacker treatment than that very
lawq II became IN the case Of himself the
subject OF public derision. He was held
up to greater and greater derlsion the
more he insisted while in office that the
only way to treat the Press was TO muz-
zle 1t.
DR.. Pennypacker is old-fashioned in his
views. As a rule he thinks that they used
to order things better In the eighteenth
century. A constitutional lawyer himself
he must have some respect for Edmund
Burke as an exponent OF the philosophy
OF government We would therefore rec
ommend to the earnest attention OF the
former Governor the famous and signih-
cant warning on the subject OF the press
addressed by that great man TO those
who. like DR.. Pennypacker, dislike and
distrust It. who. too, II they had the
power would destroy its usefulness by
taking away It's freedom.

GOOD SUGGESTION.

a 7 the meeting of the Board Of Education
the other evening Dr. Cooper brought up
a question that has been discussed considerably
by Superintendent Twitnyer and the educational
committee Of the Board of Trade. Dr. Cooper
suggested that a medical examination of pupils
in our public schools be made in order that any
possible defects might be discovered and treat
rnent recommended.
The matter will be taken mp by the Board OF
Health and doubtless Dr. Cooper's suggestion
will be put into practical operation. Other cities
have such examinations of school children and
why not Wilmington? Early discovery and treat
OF defects which hamper the child in study would
be the means in many instances of saving the
children from much misery in later life. DR.
Cooper deserves to be commended for bringing
