A GRAVE MISTAKE.

Because two OF the members Cd
jected Oh the ground that the chain
gang" cannot be worked at night anc
II would cost something to have the
work done by paid labOrers, the high
WAYS and sewers committee OF the
city council failed to recommend
that provision be made for sweeping
She streets by night instead OF by
day. The committee took this posi-
ton In the face Of an urgent plea
from the mayor for clean streets, and
an Official warning from the health
officer that sweeping by day Is a
menace to the health of the com.
munity
The committee has made a grave
mistake, we believe, and IL is to be
hoped that the council will act
promptly upon the advice of the may
or and health officer, regardless OF
the committees failure TO make re-
port.
When the physician employed TO
guard the city's health advises after
investigation and elaboration that
street sweeping during the day, when
the thoroughfares are thronged with
people and the stores and business
houses are open. is menace to the
health OF the public, the council shoi-
ders q great responsibility in contin-
uing the practice. What is the in
significant sum that would be expend-
cd for a few men to operate sweepers
compared to the public health? The
dust kicked up during the day Is de-
cidedly disagreeable, as we'll as germ.
laden and dangerous. And 1t is not
particularly edifying spectacle to
have the "chain-gang" on the princi-
pal streets during the busy time CT
the day, anyhos. There Is plenty OF
work for the gang in grading and
cleaning up the sidestreets, and the
residents of certain sections no doubt
would be delighted to have little at.
tention paid TO the grass plots and
mudhoies in front OF their homes.
Aside from the sanitary question.
Mayor Jones has sufficient provoca
ton for his complaints that Sths
streets are not kept clean. Most of
the thoroughfares are in a filthy con
dition almost continually. and visitors
10 doubt wonder why we spent hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars in paw
ing, seeing that We apparently prefer
dirt to asphalt or brick.
Let rs have decent looking streets
II the council puts the city's money
to no worse use there will be no con-
plant fiom the people.

EXAMINATION SHOULD BE
REQUIRED.

Two Of the state papers disagree
on the question OF whether or not
women should be allowed 10 drive au-
tomobiles through city streets. II
makes no difference whether the auto
mobile driver Is q man or a woman;
in fact many women are better driv-
ers than the average man. But all
cities should require applicants for IL
censes 20 operate automobiles to pass
some kind OF az examination and
demonstrate their fitness TO take pow
ct vehicles through the streets. Men
and women alike should have to stand
such an examination. and any one
who fails to give a satisfactory ac-
count o. himself or herself at the
steering wheel should be denied a.
cense.
AS We have said in discussing the
subject before. the Custom Of issuing
automobile driving licenses indiscrim-
inateiy and allowing excitable green
horns to race abou; the streets In ma.
chimes Is dangerous and ought not 70
be tolerated IN any city.

! aud the Judge OF the Corporation
Court would have to be In on the
deal. putting their oaths OF offiee and
oonsciences behind them and dciber'
ately joining in a defiance OF the laws
thay are sworn 10 enforce. And,
moreover, the executive, Judicial and
legislative branches Of the municipal
government could not successfully
carry out such a conspiracy without
the support OF the governor and leg
islature Ga the State.
Can It be that such a condition as
this exists In Memphis and Tennes
seer TO admit such a thing Is sac
commentary upon the manhood OF
Tennessee, and if the people do not
promptly bring about change they
will prove themselves-nn for self
government.
This paper does not believe In
Statewide prohibition, but 1t does be-
liove in enforcement of the law. And
IL believes, too. that when prohibition
laws actually are enforced a lot OF
people who now hypocritically ac-
quiesce In or even actively support
