she was always so sorry about it and

EDITORIAL COMMENT

a great deal In the few months that
they have been in Office. They, al
least, have done enough to create a
desire on a part of many citizens to
see more. There are no politics in
this. 1t is the public schools and the
pupils first, last and all time.
The EVENING NEWS does not
believe the present nine members of
the school board are the only men
who can handle the schools properly.
We do believe, however, that the
n~on-partisan board is superior to the
board named on the straight repub-
lican ticket IL for no other reason
than because the present board has
eliminated politics entirely and will
continue to do so If elected this fall.
That is the reason and the sole
reason why the EVENING NEWS
desires to see the non-partisan board
elected.
AS for making political capital out
of the latest move on the part Of the
non-partisan school board whereby it
proposes to look after the physical
uyalPora ~ +bn ,ahoIora wall nc tho
mental welfare, the EVENING NEWS
did play it up big because it was
something 80 entirely new and at the
same time such an excellent idea.
that 1t was deemed worthy of a
display on the first page of the
newspaper. Judging from the re-
suit we deem the display was justi-
fed. Not only were favorable COM
ments made about the move in all
parts of the city, but Joseph Christ
Jr. & Company at once came forward
with an offer of twelve boys suits
and twelve garments for girls for the
use of the school board in its work,
and Albert Leon has offered to give
twenty-five pairs of shoes for the
same purpose. This shows how the
idea has been accepted by the public
without regard to politics, which the
first ward republican political meet
ing, already referred to, insisted was
the sole object of the move. The
present non-partisan board is work
ing for the welfare of the school
children and are leaving it for the
people to say whether or not they
shall be elected for a full term.
There is every reason to believe that
they are in safe hands.

The Markets
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings In All
The Leading Stocks.

New York Aug 5-The stock market
while still narrow and professlonal tooay
reflected a more aggressive moou on TIC
part of that element in the speculation.
Their position was adhered to with more
determination and was not changed un-
til the end of the day. The attitude as
stunned by the professional traders wa
based on a conviction that a large Silort
interest remained uncovered and was III
a vulnerable position throughout the ces-
sation of urgent liquidation.
The borrowing demand for stocks con
stituted the evidence on which the tfad-
ers relied for the belief in the over-eX-
tended short interest, although the Dor
rowing of stocks for delivery IN recent
markets has been under suspicion as
device of sellers of long stock to conceal
| their identity. 1t was not until the lasl
half hour that an attempt to take profits
demonstrated the hollowness of the mar
ket and wiped out the previous gains.
The rise in the private discount rate
! in the London market raises the question
whether opposition will be made to fur-
Their movement of gold from there to Ne"
| York. The London Statist says OF TINS
situation. we can afford to be larry
| liberal to the United States at the pres
| ent time In fact, if we are not, some
what severe reaction in trade may occur
| in the States, and the reaction may give
| that country greater power to import
gold than may be comfortable Tor othel
markets" Whatever the additional move
| ment of gold from London may be, an
other enormous accretion of cash to New
York bank reserves is indicated by the
preliminary estimates of the weeks cur
| rency movement. Sub-treasury opera,
| lions, which include payments for import
gold, have supplied to the banks $G69IOO'
| while the inflow of cash from the interior
will swell the aggregate to from $l5,oOO.OU

Jimmy Gardner is training at Win
throp. Mass, Tor his bout with Bill Nc

at Portland,
The big event in boxing at PASSPORT
will occur tonight when BARLEY Con-
molly of Portland will box Henry Hall
at the Opera house. The two men ar
rived at Eastport Thursday in company
with Manager Jack Galley of Portland.
The Boston Globe says: Jim Flynn
of Pueblo wants to hox Ketchel. Papke
or Tommy Burns for $4,000 side. 1t is
probably stage money, for Flynn has
had too many hard knocks to risk any
of the money he has earned i'm the ring
by putting up side wagers with any
one.
This agitation against the pictures
of the event will not prevent the pic
lures from being shown, in my opin-
ion,' said Jack Gleason. 1t will die
out after q time. There is nothing
harmful in the pictures. They are in
no sense immoral or anything of that
sort, and | think that when those who
now object to their presentation learn
more about them they will withdraw
their protest"
1t will put boxing on much more
solid basis if the l0-round rule is ef-
fected,' says Stanley ketchel. Il do
not believe, either that if would be a
difficult thing TO proselyte the fans, for
there is no lodging the fact that the
finish fights are naug IT but exhibitions
of nrutiShnesS. When boxing is con-
Quoted for science, as is fencing, the
games stock will take a boost"

weight boxer, who some of the promi-
nent sportsmen of England tout as the
coming worlds champion, made his
first appearance in the ring in England
at London the other night. Wells fail
ed to show the speed and science he Is
said to have displayed in private, bul
| he demonstrated that he was a hard
| hitter and can place the punch etfec-
| lively. He met Corp, Brown of the

FISH DYNAMITERS.
Stocking of North Carolina Rivers
Baked by Wholesale Slaughter.

In remarking on the fact that the
United States fish commission has
placed several millions of specified
trout in the mountain streams of
North Carolina, the Asheville Citizen
says:
Unfortunately, the enterprise of
some residents of that section has
been baked in the past by the des-
tructive and piratical tendencies of
others, and the fish that have been
put out have been slaughtered whole
sale by the use of dynamite and other
explosives"
This is another evidence of the de-
structive inclinations of some of our
American people, and II shows what
tremendous campaign of education
VIII be necessary to impress the mass
es OF our citizenship with the inn
portance of conservation. 1t will be
or little avail that the fish commission
has stocked these mountain streams If
the people of that section of North
carolina allow the dynamiters to pur-
sue their work of destruction at their
own sweet will.
The use of dynamite destroys prac-
tically all the fish in the vicinity
where the explosions are made. 1t
Kills thousands of small fish that can
be OF no possible use to the barbarian
VINO resorts to such ruthless and
reprehensible methods. North Caro-
lima has a fish and game commission,
and also has laws against the whole
sale destruction of fish There IS
likely to be an opportunity of some
prosecution that will have whole
some effect.
States which have adopted stringent
measures for the protection of fish and
have made vigilant efforts to enforce
the laws have found it to be paying
policy. The whole of western North
Carolina is to some extent a health
and pleasure resort. Good fishing
adds largely to the popularity of such
resorts, and the people of Asheville
and other interested towns will find
that it pays to suppress the dyhamit-
