FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE It. 1910.


1Ta HE proper way to prepare for the celebration OF the zooth ami
versary of the founding of Newark as a colony Is TO oeVote
all the intervening time to the carrying out OF the large
projects of public improvement that have been planned anu lna' "a9
be planned. Before the year 1916 the trunk sewer will have pee
built and the Passaic restored to it's pristine condition, put u VI"
not be wholly a local achievement. Before 1916 the Newark meadows
should be made solid ground, a ship canal cut through u d muhor
nal dock system an established fact. Could Newark SIX years
present a more satisfactory evidence of its growth ana enterprise
than that single Improvement? If the city government, packed oy
the public, shall push the large affairs to Their completon CIV" pni
will attend to the minor ones. 1t will labor for a city DeautHul
as well as a city practical. In the next six years the shade
Commission will have done a grand work in supplying the streets
and marks with shade trees. Much will be done in paving. private
enterprise will improve u street architecture. The owners o &C
tory and other similar properties can be induced to hide ughness
with natures green. Newark should begin now to prepare for her
25Oth anniversary.

INDIFFERENCE TO THE DRUG EVIL.

1a HE opium or cocaine habit is so widely prevalent among a
dissolute class in the cities of this State that it has become
q threat. The use of opium and cocaine is a growing one
among the lower class of negroes. In a crusade in Newark during
Sheriff Sommer's term many arrests were made, and most of them
ere those of negroes Judge Queen, of the Second Criminal Court
of Jersey City, evidently looks with a lenient eye upon the panderer
to the drug vice. A completely equipped negro opium den being
discovered by the police in a search for negro highwaymen, two
arrests were made. Judge Queen paroled the prisoners and refused
evidence presented in court. One of the prisoners promptly disap
peared. There was evidence in the hands of the police that the
pair released by the judge had knowledge Of robberies committed in
Jersey City. 1t is q just complaint by police and detectives that
their best work is thwarted BY police judges, as in this case.

P00sEyELT,s RECEPTION TOMORROW

eN HE reception to be given to Roosevelt in Manhattan tomorrow
morning will eclipse the demonstrations in his honor in Euro
cities. The extraordinary courtesies extended to the
former President in Europe have, in fact, served to swell the note OF
acclaim that will greet him in the metropolis of his own country.
New York i, fond of a great pageant, and this one will occur on a
Saturday. when the business world of New York city begins its
weekly season of leisure. 1t could not be better timed. That Theo-
dore Roosevelt is at the present time the most popular man In the
United States goes without saying. The reception given to him
tomorrow will have a national character. Whether this great popn-
1arty will be retained by Roosevelt is a question for the future to
determine. A year ago President Taft was enormously popular,
and in q wear popularity has almost deserted him. Roosevelt will
not be placed in a position of great official responsibility, but, none
the less, he will be critically judged for words and acts in relation
to public affairs. But there will be no criticism tomorrow. All will
be acclaim for the returned statesman.

TWO NEW STARS FOR THE FLAG.

"a TATEHOOD will now be conferred on Arizona and New
Mexico to add two new stars TO the flag, the Senate and
House having passed statehood bills that are to be recon-
ciled in conference. New Mexico was organized as a territory in
1850 and Arizona in 1863, and only Alaska and the District of
Columbia will now remain as continental territories. New Mexico
has a n area of 1872, SOB square miles and Arizona 113,S4O square
miles. New Mexico's population in 1900 was 19531O, while Arizona
had 122 931. Statehood will immensely stimulate the growth of
both territories, but the wonderful development of Oklahoma can
not be paralleled. That State has a rich soil, while in the two terri
tories there are large arid areas that are uninhabitable for man or
beast. To the politician the admission of the two territories into
the Union is chiefly of interest because their admission will give
four new members to the United States Senate, and the new sena.
tors may decide the political complexion of a future Senate.

The Color Line.

To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
Does it not seem as though the white
pupils of the graduating class of the
East Orange High School are doing
themselves a grave injustice in being
unwilling to permit the colored gradu-
ates, together with their escorts, to at
tend the class dance?
Surely the intention Of the latter to
attend is fathered by no wish to In
trude themselves socially, but rather
by the entirely lunar desire to reap
every possible benefit and pleasure re-
sulting from their years of hard study,
study made doubly hard because OF
their color, condition and the limited
goal toward which their ambitions
might strive.
when one considers that after the
school doors have closed upon them
and their class dance Is over they must
for the balance of their days avoid all
contact with their former classmates,
and are forced. amid the realities OF

+ Pupils of h Kearny public o
are to receive circulars warning them
against any but safe and sane opserv-
ances of the Fourth. These circulars.
which will be prepared at the request OF
the Woman's Club of Arlington, will
impress upon the pupils the necessity
of celebrating the national birthday in
a circumspect and restricted manner.
Have a good time they will say in
effect, but be very careful not to do
this, that and the other thing" 1t Is
only necessary for some one to start
a crusade, object anything, and the
amusing developments follow In regular
order.
In an article of greeting to Roosevelt,
written for the outlook by President
Taft, occurs the following lines: I'm
view of what happened when he
reached civilization, however, those Of
us who had the privilege of talking
with him before he went can afford to
have some fun at his expense in his
frequently avowed determination to
avoid all public functions and enter
tainments." Is the President sincere
when he would have 1t understood that
he took seriously any "avowed deter.
mination to avoid all public functions"
ETC., on the part of Mr.. Roosevelt?
The evidence which Senator Lorimer
must combat II he is to clear himself
of the charge of being elected through
bribery is not growing blacker day by
day, largely because it acquired the
blacklist of midnight hues some time
ago. But from time to time a member
of the Illinois Senate or lower house
detaches himself gracefully from the
large group Of suspects n aligns him
self witt-the rapidly -growing group Of
'conspirators" who have confessed.

Municipal dance pavilions. which are
being urged as an amusement reform
in Newark, should enlist strong sup
port, as the idea Is a good one. The
real difficulty would seem to lie in
popularizing such places. Owned, con-
Quoted and policed by the city, 1t Is
probable they would be carefully
avoided by the young men and women
for whom they were built unless pow
erful inducements to patrons were held
out. 1t is natural to resent well-meant
attempts on the part of a municipality
to control the pastimes of leisure hours.
Above all other men, the hard-work-
ing members of that reception COM
mittee which has bee making prepa-
rations for the Return are thinking of
the weather today. There vas no diff
fculty about securing the crowd for
the occasion; the committee had plenty
of time to arrange other details, but
the weather proposition they were
forced to put off until the very last
minute. Now the prospect Is not cheer
ing. But, after all. is 1t feared that a
downpour might dampen the ardor of
jealous patriots?

Defend. Mis-. vandervall.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
Please publish the following:
Senior Graduating Glass of the East
Orange High School:
Girls-Do you not think you are un-
fair toward Miss Isabelle vandervall?
She has been your companion for four
years. You nay have ignored her, but
still she was in your class, rank and
file.
From what the papers state, Miss
Vandervall is one of the brightest pu-
pills in your class. This alone should
permit her to choose her friend for the
dance, without your unreasonable com
ments.
Do YOU for one minute think one of
your white lads would escort MISS Van
dervall? I dare say, should q thing of
this kind happen at lear old N. H. S.,
one of our Manly Lads would gladly
blacken up to escort Miss vandervall.
If she so desired. Were a boy. I
would do it in a minute.
Girls. do be a bit reasonable, and
think how you would feel and what you
would do were you in Miss Isabelle
Vandervall's place. In all sincerity.

late to accomplish anything. The longer State action is delayed
the nearer we come ia a period when nothing can be done. Ihere
is a bare possibility that the Interstate Commerce Commission, II II
shall be invested with power in time to act, will call a matt n the
railroads, but the people would be foolish to wait on the prospect OF
any such action, which depends, first, on the final enactment OF the
railroad bill and. second, on the very uncertain attitude OF the com
mission, which is not unlikely to accept the Wlckersham ldea,
namely. that the question of suburban affairs is not a national one
and should be dealt with locally in the States. If July arrives

WHY THE ASSESSORS WENT WEST.

TIA VIDENTLY the two members of the State Board of Assessors
IL who took wing for the Far West last Tuesday were con-
vinced that there was not the least necessity for them to
tarry at Trenton, since whatever their board might do it would not
in the least respect help to settle the question OF railroad fares.
They were told so by the State Railroad Commission in its state
ment that the commission could have no authority to act and that
the State had no jurisdiction. Naturally all the assessors could see
in the action taken by the commission was a desire to py into the
records Of another board.

BILLIE BUBBLES PERIL.
BY FARMER SMITH.

~ NE day Billie Bubble was resting alongside the
bank Of the brook, when all of a sudden he saw a
little boy right above him.
Now, I wonder what that boy is going to do
thought Billie.
He didn't have long to wonder. The boy stopped
over, a tin pail flashed In the sunlight, and zip! before
Billie Bubble could get out of the way, he was lifted
right out of the brook.
well, / declare" he said to himself, whats all this
mean?'
The next thing Billie knew he was being poured into
a little hole dug into the bank.
The little boy played a long time. He had a little
tiny boat which he foated all around the little hole
Billie had all he could do to keep out of the way.
