APPLYING NEWARk'S LESSON.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir All the various organizations of
women in New Jersey have united for sew
eral years in petitioning their Legisla-
ture to appropriate money for the enforce
ment of adequate factory laws and inspec-
ton. They gave as their reasons for this
demand the facts that men have taken the
old home industries into factories and that
the young girl forced to follow them there
is dependent for health and for life itself
upon the State.
Their requests have, however, invariably
been disregarded. One member, while vot-
ing against any increase of outlay, took oc-
casion to allude to the ''encroachment of
this woman suffrage idea which is trying
to teach men to attend to their own busi-
ness"
May l suggest, in the light of the revela-
tions in Newark. that the twenty-four de-
tenceless victims who perished there on
Saturday are quite a poignant object lesson
as to just how they attended to their busI-
ness

WOMAN COLLECTOR.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In your issue of November q ap
peared an article giving Neptune Township,
in Monmouth County, n. j.. the palm for
having the only woman collector in the
state. Lakewood. n. j., really has first
claim to that honor.
In October, 1907. t. T. Johnson. Collector
of Lakewood Township, which includes
Lakewood. East Lakewood, South Lake
wood, Lakewood Manor and Pine Forest
Manor, appointed Miss Martha Freeborn
deputy collector, and since that date Miss
Freedom has successfully played right
bower in the Lakewood Township tax office.

LESSONS OF 4 FATAL FIRE.

Twenty-four lives were lost in a
factory fire in Newark last Saturday.
Immediately it was said. by police and
firemen as well as press and public that
the building had been a firetrap. This
was. however. earnestly and clrcumstan-
TALLY denied, not only by the owner and
tenants of the building. but also by the
official building inspectors. We were
assured that the inspectors had exam
ined the building and had ordered GER
tain safeguards. to comply with the law,
and that the proprietor had caused them
to be provided; wherefore the building
was all right. and the loss of life must
have been due to blind panic among the
cmployes or to some inscrutable "act
of Cod
Investigation into all the circum-
stances of the tragedy is now being
made. however, and it shows according
to The Newark Evening News some
suggestive facts: That the building was
listed by insurance companies as IN
extra hazardous risk: that there was
only one stairway to the upper floors.
W ''--0>
adjOined an open elevator shaft. with no
protection against fire; that there were
only two fire escapes, one Of which was
to be reached only by climbing upon Il
platform which promptly collapsed when
it was put TO use, and that the inspection
force of the city and state. and also the
laws bearing upon the subject. are quite
Inadequate to the needs of safety.
These facts. which seem TO be indis-
putable. and the other tragic fact of the
loss of twenty-four lives certainly sug-
eest the need of much heart searching
among the municipal and state authori-
ties. If the law was not complied with.
somebody was at fault for the neglect.
If the law was complied with, then we
should say that the law was at fault.
ANY law which permits conditions to eX-
ist such as we have described, which re-
suit in such catastrophe as that 0f
Saturday last. is certainly to be suspect
ed of inefiiciency and Of urgent need Ct
radical revision. In some way some
assurance should he given against the
repetition of this tragedy i'll any one OF

DR.. Cook appears to have spent the last
year exploring his own mind.

The Board of Education has been con-
sidering the curtailment Of some special
branches, particularly foreign languages,
in the public schools. Without pre-
suming to dictate to that body 1t may
confidently be said that if the special
branches interfere with the best possible
teaching of the ordinary or regular
branches they should be curtailed, and
that if foreign languages prevent sue
cessful teaching of English they should
be eliminated 1t is a good thing to
teach psychology, but arithmetic is far
more important. 1t would be a fine
thing to teach all the children French
and German and Spanish, but it would
be a finer thing first to teach them Eng
lish a good deal more perfectly than 1t
now seems to be taught in nine out of
ten cases.

The growing popularity of swimming
contests as part Of school and college
athletics suggests the advantage of
making that exercise a part of the COM
pulsory athletics at every institution
where facilities for it exist or can be
provided. The propriety of requiring
certain amount of physical exercise for
the welfare of the students is conceded.
1t would be difficult to name a form of
exercise which would more surely serve
that end than swimming. 1t is excel
lent for the discipline of almost every
member and muscle of the body. and 1t
is in addition a valuable protection
against drowning. 1t ought to be good
recommendation Of any school that all
its students are required to learn to
swim.

out OF the window and put the fire out.
They found Ferry in the next room

forehead was badly cut. They Dol
him to the Swedish Hospital.

Has there been a fire in Sterling
placer"
He was told there had been a fire.

Yes, replied the policeman.
Ferry said he dimly remembered

We point with pride to the record
of the Republican party in Latah.

people of the county to the fact that
during the republican administration
for decade prior to the lncumbency
OF the present Democratic board OF
county commissioners, the indebted.
ness OF Latah county was continually
being reduced and extinguished while
at the same time the county taxes on
the masses of the people we're also be.
ing reduced. We condemnthe pres.
ent Democratic board of county com.
miscioners for its failure to conduct
the business of Latah county on cash
basis, and call attention of the PEG.
pie Of the county to the fact that dur.
ing the first year of the present Demo-
cratic administr alton the indebtedness
OF Latah county was increased over
ten thousand dollars. The Republican
party Of Latah county pledges to the
people OF the state in the event of
Republican success, a business admin.
istration with taxes at the lowest, keep.
ing in mind the conduct of the busl
ness Of the county upon a cash basis
and the payment of Democratic in.
debetedness.
We endorse the platform of the Re.
publican party of Idaho as adopted
September Goth, 1910, and especially
cali to the attention of the people of

interest to Latah County:
