ARE THE NIGHT SCHOOLS
WORTH S., 500 MOREi

Washington has 1900 citizens who
must get at night what education they
are to have Most of those $500 are
full grown. Over 400 Of them are
foreigners. All of them are in deadly
sagnest in trying to make themselves
Setter men and women. Yet they must
b. put off this year with half the
REogress they might reasonably expect
Cor their effort, mless-unless Cca-
gress appropriates $500 asked by all
the District authorities concerned, and
makes that sum Immediately available.
About Sl5,5OO has been already APP
propriated for the night schools. When
$4,000 had been spent for equipment,
as contemplated in the allowance, there
remained enough to keep the schools
open ffty-five nights. The year would
naturally include seventy five nights or
more. The sum asked would extend
the course to seventy-five nights.
Is it worth $500 to give these $500
strugglers further opportunity to learn
Is it worth that much as an investment
by the slater Is it worth that much
TO reward their earnestness? Surely
there can be only one answer. OF course
it is. But if anyone has any doubt he
owes it to himself to attend a session
of the night schools and see for him
self. He viii find there
Four hundred adult foreigners
Greeks, Lithuanians, Russian Jews,
Italians, and so on-all learning to read
and write our language, learning TO be
patriotic, learning to love the country
of their adoption.
Three hundred young boys and girls,
many of them native-bOn Americans,
learning the rudiments of commerce at
the Business High School. hoping to
open to themselves a wider business
horizon, and SO become more Produc-
tive earners for the State.
Eight out of every ten coIored stu
dents grown men and women, striving
to master the very fundamentals Of
education.
The greater number of all these
classes are so employed that during the
holiday season they have been unable
TO attend the only school open TO them.
Twenty nights beyond the term origin
ally outlined viii give them a term still
shorter than that offered the fellows
of like situation in other cities. If they
could have seventy nights of in
struction unbroken and uninterrupted
the state would still not do all that il
might do with profit to itself. Surely,
FOR such a work with citizens so needy
and so earnest, there viii be no stop

THE NEW YORK GAS DECISION
BY THE SUPREME COURT.

1t will require the analysis of the
lawyers and the experts in this par
ticular set of facts before exact APP
praisaI may be made of the publc's
gains through the Supreme Courts de
cision in the Consolidated Gas case. But
it Is plain enough already that the de
eision is a great victory for the public
interest. 1t sustains in the widest way
the power of legislature to make rates
for public utility services; and it indi-
Gates clearly that no technical pleadings
and dubious allegations about confsca
ton viii be allowed to defeat the pub
hes right to service at a fair price.
The New York Legislature passed an
act fixing the price of gas for general
consumption in New York city at 50
cents, and for public use at IS cents
per thousand. The uniform price of 81
had previously prevailed.
The gas company appealed, and won
in the appellate court; that is, 1t got
a decision on its main contention that
the price was not compensatory, and
an order that the gas concern might
continue collecting 81 for gas, but must
retain 20 cents as "a fund in trust
pending further appeal, 20 be paid back
to users of gas if the last court should
decide for the sO-cent rate.
E-rs=T-r. .----. 1---. ..-...---. z
The largest question was as to the
valuation to be placed on franchises OF
the company; and in order to make the
sO-cent rate nonconfscatory, the court
had to take a view of franchise values
which is most gratifying to the public
and indicates that in future the ex-
cessive valuation of franchises, as a
means TO justifying high rates fol
service, viii have small excuse.
New York has lined itself up with
the progressive States by the passage
of this legislation and the passage OF
the public service commission law. II
is left more than ever a pitifuI reAec.
tion on the capacity Of Congress that
Washington is now the only city OF
first class, and of conditions at all nor.
NAL, in which so high q price as 81 is
still charged for gas. Congress governs
Washington. and perhaps Congress viii

Man often views his fellow with cou-
temptuoJs superiority Nation looks
upon nation with disdan, or envy,
or hate. Yet, before a small couyul-
sion of nature. man is, at the most. ON

ought to teach him to avoid pride. He
is "a creature of occasionally revealed in
significance who may be taken up in

In viewing the present disaster, it is
comparable I'm its suddenuess and sever
ity with the effects of the eruption of

quake has, however, worked far greater
ruin and death. because it occurred In
a broader and more PopuIou7 land. BY
the side of the present visitation the
disaster at San Francisco was trihing.
One circumstance, perhaps without
significance, may be noted in counec-
tion with both disasters. Both hap
