GRAND STAND MORALITY

The Jef'ries-Johnson prize fight pic
lures have been exhibited in many
places. They'were in Charleston, W..
Va, short time ago and created no
race riots, no sensation whatever, an d
drew only small crowds. All this
balderdash and sudden tidal wave of
morality over this matter has fallen as
fiat as toad after steam roller had
passed over it.
1t is strange how these grand stand
moral waves do sweep certain class
of people off their feet. There is some
thing at our doors almost every day
which is far more demoralizlng than
any moving picture of the prize ring.
1t is the "obscene post card" Even
our mails permit many such, but there
are dealers in many places who have
on exhibition many that are sugges-
tive, many indeed that are obscenely
vulgar. They are intended to poison
the youthful mind, they are for the
debased and degraded. There is no
war on them, because there is no grand
stand play to be made in so doing.

WHY THAT INTERVIEW :?

The interview between President
taft and MI. Roosevelt which took
place on Monday at New Haven, has
been subject of national comment.
The cause of it was enquired into by
all. The result of it was anxiously
awaited. But neither has been salts
factorily explained. Now Col. Roose-
welt is reported to have denied that he
sought the interview. This puts the
seeking on Mr.. Taft, who is as yet 81
lent, and doubtless will be. Yet as the
case stands he was the party who made
the date, and he was the party who
had something to ask, or to talk over.
What was it? Was it the New York
governorship? or was it the 1912 prob
lem2 Both, just now, interest Mr..
Taft as much as Col. Roosevelt. AS
between the two Mr.. Taft has far more
to lose. Mr.. Taft's failure to be re-
nominated will be a severe robuke.
Col. Roosevelt's failure to get third
term may or may not end his political
career. 1t is bound to end Mr.. Taft's.
Thus Mr.. Taft may have had impor-
tant business with Col. R., whilst he
had none with Mr.. Taft.

NOT YET TO BE AIRED

There are several important scandal
that are not to be aired until after tn
November elections. The G. O. p. ha
much on hand. The indictments il
the case of the Beef Trust magnates
was grand stand.play. Other ''pros
ecutions" are going on in various
places, which tend to show politica
corruption and official rottenness. 81
possibly some excuse may be made fol
not further impregnating the rather
malodorous atmosphere.
But there are several very grave in
vestigations which ought to have been
reported on at least, but which will
not be for political reasons until after
the elections in November.
There is the Friar Lands scandal.
This is an immense affair, but danger
GUS to the powers that be. Hence the
Republican committee in charge of it
will do nothing.
The Murray Contract, known as the
Indian Lands scandal. was partially
enquired into. But after going far
enough to get Vice President Jim
Sherman out, the committee rested,
and will continue to rest.
Then there is the Lorimer senatorial
bribery case, the case of the man with
whom Col. Roosevelt would not eat.
which is standing dead still and will
70 stand until the sides of November. T"
Then last, but not least, is the Bal
linger case. This case has been long in
shape to report on. But "w Use" Re-
publican majority will do nothing.
They have report ready they say, but
will not make it public lest they might
be thought to be playing politics: Such
an accusation would be the grossest
Islander. Such conduct on their part
would be too reprehensible to be con-
sidered. Let us hope that only the
highest moral motives are actuating
these partisan committees in each
case.

FoRrlFv THE CANAL

"Fortify the canal" say the jingoes.
Of course our horde Of parasite naval
officers want the canal fortified. If
peace were to reign they would be out
Of a job. They must do something to
create strife. Fortify it now they cry,
build dreadnaughts to defend the har-
bors, build aeroplanes to drop ''oran
ges" on the dreadnaughts, these are SO
important that we can hardly wait
their accomplishment. But who I'M
der heaven would want the canal in
Its present condition? Who would
try to take it from us until completed,
and who then until it proved 6nan-
cial success This may be hundred
years in the accomplishment. Why
hurry except to satisfy the jingoes ?
