A Drop in the Bucket.

Comparisons between modern Amer
lean civilization and the civilization of
ancient Greece and Rome are always
entertaining and harmless. For instance
in the atlantic monthly, Signor Ferrero.
that lively iconoclast among the histor-
ians, finds that the "lavish giving of the
rich is hut single aspect of a noticeable
phenomenon in which America is nearer
to the ancient world than Europe"
The lavish giving of the opulant Ro-
mans was, however, radically different,
both in motive and character from the
lavish giving Of the wealthy Americans.
A rich aristocracy owned hordes of
slaves and that had under it masses of
plebians and freedmen, did not endow
schools, libraries and hospitals, and es-
tabliSh foundations like the Sage, the
Carnegie and the Rockefeller founda-
tons. 1t spent its money lavishly for
private and selfish purposes and for
bread and circuses" for the masses.
There are idle Americans, perhaps
thousands of them. Some of their great
fortunes are doubtless being squandered.
And there is more or less selfish .osten-
tation. But they are only drop in the
great American millions of industrious,
thrifty American citizens. who are as diff
ferent from the ancient Roman slaves as
they are from semi-civiized tribes.

Not a Closed Incident.

Mayor Gaynor said that he has not
read the newspaper accounts of the
late dastardly attempt upon his life,
and will not do so. ut is a closed in j.
dent, he says. something that do not
want to talk about. 1t is easily to be
understood why the Mayor has no wish
to revive recollections of so painful an
incident, but it should be impossible for
him to escape the unpleasant experience
of relating what he knows Of the affair in
the court. He has already said that he
does not desire the. prosecution of Gal
lagher. but the State of New Jersey.
which has jurisdiction over the crime, is
not likely to waive its statutes merely to
please the executive of the nelghboring
city. Justice has more definite mean
ing in New Jersey than in some other
communities. The State is famous for
the prompt manner in which its laws
designed for the protection of life and
property, and it is TO be expected that
in this case it will proceed vigorously
with the trial of this serious offender
against society, now that the extent of
his crime has been determined bv the
Mayors virtual recovery from his
wounds. To remit in any degree the
prescribed penalty applicable to Mayor
Gaynor's would-be assassin would be
very serious mistake, calculated to en-
courage other disgruntled men to seek
vengeance for real or imagined wrongs

shire.

A dispatch from Concord, New Hamp-
shire, dated September 9th, says: The
first direct primary election in this State
resulted in landslide for the Insurgent
Republicans. State Senator Robert P.
Bass, OF Peterboro, was nominated for
governor by vote of more than two
TO one. over the candidate of the reg
ulars, Hon. Bertram Ellis of Keene.
The indications are that Bass has car
ried every county IN the State, and but
a small percentage of the towns and
cities have returned a majority for Ellis.
A feature of the primary in this city
was the complete rout of Senator Jacob
II. Gallinger in his home ward The
ward went for Bass, as did the entire
city. Senator Gallinger was a candidate
for delegate TO the State Convention and
was overwhelming defeated.
The Democrats have nominated Clar-
ence Z. Darr, of Andover, for Governor.

MORE REPUBLICAN GUEssEs

THERE is guess going around that
Colonel Roosevelt will do nothing to pre-
vent the Sherman standpat gang from
having full control of the New York State
convention and making a platform and
nominating candidates that will invite de-
feat. Such a Republican catastrophe
would play INTO the hands of the Colonel
by allowing him TO dominate the organi-
cation in 1912 and select delegation to
the National convention that he would
control
And so we might go on with all the
guesses that are going and yet arrive at
nothing certain beyond the fact that the
rival Republican factions are making hor-
rible faces at each other. and are quite
ready to make goats of anyone who does
not agree with them. The tickle wind is
stable compared with the daily news from
the headquarters of the Republican states
men, The Elephant himself stands with
detected look and takes orders from no
one, and the rank and file of the Repub-
lican outfit are divided into rival camps

IGNORANCE OR WORSE.

The majority report Of the srlect COM
mittee of the Senate on wages and prices
of commodities which is signed by Sena-
tors Lodge. Gallinger McCumber, Smoot
and Crawford as the first reason for the
enormous increase of the cost of living:
Increased cost of production of farm
products by reason of higher land values
and higher wages
The astute Republican politicians who
signed that report are evidently ignorant
of the most simple laws Of political econ
omy, or their purpose was to deceive the
Senate and the people of the United
States. DIR. Thomas Nixon Garter, pro-
fessor of Political Economy in Harvard
University, says of that report: "a STU
dent would fail to pass the Introductory
course in economics in Harvard Univers-
ity who would make such blunders as are
contained in that report"
As to the first cause, DR.. Carter says:
This is a perfectly clear case Of putting
the cart before the horse. Every student
Of economies knows that the high price
of land is not a cause, but the effect oil
the high price Of farm products. Let the
price Of farm products fall to the unre-
munerative level and land values will
disappear. for the simple reason tina,
farm land then becomes undesirable prop
erty. Let the price Of farm products rise
still higher and farm land becomes more
desirable and its price will rise still
higher There is no reason why land
should command high price for farming
purposes, except a rise in the price O
farm products or a fall in the cost of cul
tivating the land To say that farm pro.
ducts are high because land values are
high is quite as foolish as saying a tree is
tall because It's shadow is long"
Nearly every other statement made by
the Republican Senators is shown to be
equally fallacious by the minority Of the
same committee in their report, and the
evidence they adduce Of its deception is
from Republican sources. This igA0yafio
eheHci Of these Republican lawmakers
throws discredit on all their statements.

Is it Race Suicide?

Statistics are always more or less inter
esting and especially is this tue of those
statistics based upon the figures now
given out by the census estimators and
the government Census Bureau. Aside
from speculations as to the possible
growth of one municipality or another.
1t is interesting to note the status of the
native-born American in connection with
the birth and death rates and even a
most casual investigation will disclose
figures little short OF alarming.
According TO the estimates of com
petent authorities the population of the
United States should be found this year
to be in the vicinity of 90, 200, 900 souls.
Deduct from this the immense food of
immigration which since 1900 has closely
appropriated 5000. 600, and the increase
in population meanwhile to have been
something like IA. ooo, 900, as far as the
native. born Americans are concerned
This is an increase OF but per cent,
over the figures of the former decade, as
against 81 per cent for that just preced-
ing. Thus it is seen that the rate of
internal increase has fallen off fully so
per manchester Union.

Taft Swats Ballin0er.

President Taft recently appointed Mr..
Joseph A. Holmes Director of the Blu
reau of Mines. In his selection. Presi
dent Taft apparently overrules not only
the wishes, but also the active opposition
of Secretary Of the Interior Ballinger to
the appointment Of Mr. Holmes, who has
been chief of the chronological branch OF
the United States Geological Survey
Secretary Ballinger regards DIR. Holmes
as rngleader in the conspiracy" to
Dust him from the secretaryship.
1t is known that Secretary Ballinger
and his friends brought an unusual pres
sure to bear upon President Taft in an
effort to prevent DIR. Holmes appoint
ment. The appointment, therefore.
caused much surprise in Beverly. DIR.
Holmes is a close friend of former
Forester Clifford Pinchot. A large num-
Der of engineers, chemists and other ex-
perts loyal to DIR. Holmes will be trans
ferred with him from the Geological
Survey to the new bureau.
