JULY 4, BIRTHDAY OF AMERI-
CAN INDEPENDENCE.

Today Is the great national holiday
It Is the birthday of American indie
pendence. None of our other holidays
is Just ike the Fourth of July in re-
spect either to the manner of celebTa-
ton or the thoughts that the day
arouses. It Is prominently a day
for the contemplation OF things patri-
otie. Tor reverence TO the fathers, for
thought on the present state Of the ma
ton. for study Of what the future viii
bring forth 10 the American people.
One hundred and thirty-fOur years
have elapsed since the Declaration OF
Independence was adopted in old In
dependence Hall in Philadelphia, d long
flight OF time, but there appears no per
ccptIbie evidence of wane in the pur-
pose to do fun honor TO the event and
the men who bore mems parts in it.
1t Is true, our ideas with respect there
to are in some respects changing For
instance the safe and sane Fourth =
taking the place gradually OF the old
fashioned, NOISY Fourth, with its reeS-
less disregard Of life and limb and its
appalling list Of casualties and fatal
tiles. But the safe and sane Fourth
Is more conducive 10 the proper study
and contemplation of the day as 1t
should be celebrated than the Fourth
marked chiefly by the violence of its
noise and the length of its accident roll
There Il another phase Of things.
too. that deserves mention IN con
nection with the celebration OF the
Fourth OF july. We have arrived at
time when everything bearing the
name Of patriotism Is not accepted
bIindIy as beirg patriotism OF the true
type. Something more : coming to be
required of a man than the mere an
nouncement OF his love for the old
flag. OF blatant declarations OF his love
OF liberty. Demand for good citizen
ship Is more IN evidence than 1t ever
was. Men are devoting themselves
more and more seriously TO the study
of economic and industrial and social
truths and the rightinC OF economic,
industrial. and social wrongs. They
are insisting on higher ideals In poll
tics. on a public service that serves
the public instead of feeding upon It.
It Is worth while TO remember these
things on the birthday OF the republic
and to foster this spirit to teach the
youth and the young men that patriot
I ism consists of something a good deal
more than admiration for men and
deeds of the past and that the patriot
I ism of the highest type Is that which
devotes itself 10 graphing with the
real evils Of the nation. as they exist
today and are threatened IN the future,

GREAT RAILROAD STRIKE IN
THE SOUTH AVERTED.

Official announcement l. made that
an amicabIe adjustment has been
reached OF the differences between the
railroads III Southeastern territory and
their trainmen and conductors The
agreement signed provides for a sub
stautisI increase in the wages Of the
employees and for improved conditions
Of workmen and better hours of-labor-
Increases of from 10 per cent TO 40
per cent in wages have been allowed.
The men have not gained all they de-
manded- but on the whole the outcome
Is a great victory for them
The result Is extremely fortunate.
alike for the employees, the railroads,
the South. and the country generally.
It Is impossible 70 estimate the loss
that a general strike on ali the roads
in the Southeast would have caused.
While estimates vary as to the number
OF men who would have been directly
involved it Is fair To say II would
have been from 10000 TO 1900. The
number Indirectly involved who would
have been thrown out OF work be
cause of the strike would have been
several times as many more In fact
it Is impossible to tell what would
have been the ramificatiOHs Of a gen
eraI tie-up of transportation IN the
South. Its effects on business IN the
North and on steamship business alone
would have been grave
1t Is said the controversy which has
now been practically settled was the
most difficult of mediation Of any
which has been brought before the me-
diators under the Erdman act. Chair
man Knapp, Of the Interstate Com
merce Commission. and Dr. Charles 2.

James J. Jeffries and Jack johnson
VIII enter the ring for a forty five
round contest. Not only in America.
but in Europe and in the Antipodes, Is
the outcome of the fight awaited with
the keenest attention.
This country has brought forth many
remarkable fighters. who have won
laurels. such as they are, in the world
of pugilism- It Is doubtful If any one
OF them in his day was as popular as
John J. sullivan But it must be ad
nitted that preceding none of the fights
IN which Sullivan engaged was there
such an astonishing show Of appetite
for details a. characterizes the Jeffries-
johnson match to be fought in a little,
upstart mining town in Nevada this
afternoon
Aloralists are finding much to con-
denim both in the fight this afternoon
AID I'm the exhibition of interest IN 1t
on the part OF the public Many as
sail the newspapers for publishing long
accounts Of the preparations and other
phases of the contest. But the fact
remains that the event Is one Of such
an unusual nature that the great ma
jority of people want TO know about
It. It would be an absurd thing for
any newspaper TO overlook it or fail
TO let its readers know the exact truth
with reference TO II.
1t Is a curious psychological truth
that, with the world today farther re
moved from savagery and barbarism
than ever, at least In theory, there Is
displayed an unprecedented desire TO
know about a contest between two hui
man giants. each trained to the finest
point that the science of boxing and of
physical development viii permit The
racial question enters 10 some extent
but il IS nevertheless true that there
Is a widespread yearning to know
which Is the more capable fighter with
out respect 20 color.
It Is not the purpose here TO enter
into any defense of pugilism or TO
condemn it. 1t is merely desired to
emphasize as a theme for the careful
study of the moralist, the psychologist,
the man Of religion the man OF no re
ligion, the liberal, and the stern Puri-
tan. that when tonight comes ninety
nine men out of every hundred VIII
want 10 know who won and how he

OF THE OLD SCHOOL
PASSES AWAY.

At the age of seveHty-seveu wears.
the last twenty-five of which had been
spent as Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States. Melville
Weston Fuller, one Of the last Of the old
school of American iurists. has laid
down the responsibilities of life and
forSaken the pleasures of a satisfying
and welI-rOunded career IN response %
that last demand which sooner OF later
Is laid upon us all
To but few Americans can come the
houors and distinction achieved by
Chief Justice Fuller The great office
which he held so long. and which Is
rated by many a. superior in desirable
fly, power. dignity. and honor to the
Presidency itself, can OF necessity be
flIed by only one in hundreds Of thou
sands. Bur IF it best0ws great dis
tiucti0n upon him who holds It. it is
equally true that such a character as
was Chief Justice Fuller bestows equal
i great distinction upon It.

speot from all citizens Of all classes
and sections, bat for the last twenty
Two years there has never been a mo-
ment when the respect accorded the
office was not accorded in equal OF
greater measure to the man. because
OF the nobility of his character, his
powerful intellect. his broad compass
sion for humanity and his undoubted
integrity.
Chief Justice Fuller was a type OF
lawyer and iuTist that IS rapidly fad
Ing from American history He was
the deIyiuE, searching, student type.
Into his cases he threw the best there
was in HIM When he was a Young
man judicial sign posts were scarce
The profession had not adopted the
precedent method of fighting and de
Gliding cases, perhaps because the coun-
tTy was not old enough TO have estab-
lished principles for the young lawyer
TO follow. Today the lawyer turns to
Texas, 10 California, TO Maine, to Penn
svlvania. to Iowa. and to every other
corner of the nation Tor help in build
ing mp his case, and the iurist turns 20
Mississippi. to New York, to Wiscon-
sin. = Missouri. to Colorado. and to
any other State whose decisions are
handy in deciding It. The lawyer takes
little OF this man and a little OF
that. and the Judge takes a little OF
another and a great deal Of some one
else and between them they arrive at
an opinion
In the days when Chief Justice Full
er was a young man graphing with
legal problems such practices were OF
minor instead OF major Importance
As a lawyer fighting for his client and
a. a Judge upon the bench, such mel
