The reiephoue probe.

70 the Editor OF the Evening Star:
! The STAR Is to be congratulated ON
it's stand for a thorough probe of the
telephone rates in this State. 1t has
been proven conclusively that Newark
and other towns in the vicinity have
labored for long under a burdensome
tax from which other cities of its size
are free. out It needed some influential
organ like the STAR to champion the
cause of cheaper rates for the people OF
New Jersey ii any success were to
crown the efforts of the legislators. 1t
Is common comment that the STAR IS
always the first to come to the front in
any cause of the people, and there is
no doubt in the minds of the inhabitants
of Essex county, at least. that, once
again, the STAR will come out victo-
rious in its battle for the people, who,
however willing they may be to take a
stand for the right, yet need some one
to lead them. o.r.o'

The People 5 Rostrum


mitted to 100 emine mt citizens chosen
by the regent of New York Universe y.
Nc name was considered unless the
subject had been dead at least ten
years When the Hall of Fame was
opened inc dedicated fifty names were
entered upon its roll. Among the hrst
chosen was Robert e. Lee. Every FIVE
years five tablets in memory of great
Americans are added to those in the
Hall of Fame. This will be done until
the year 1000, when the total number
will be $50. IL
The place with which the Hall of
Fame has beer confused is Statuary
Hall in the Capitol at Washington.
1t is the circular memorial room set
aside by Congress to receive two
marble busts from each State in the
Union. no restrictions. whatever. Long
ago Virginia placed al statue of WASH
ington in her niche, and now she is
talking of placing General Lee beside
ii. If Virginia is in TIC Union today,
l as a member of the Grand Army, am
willing that she should exercise the
prerogatives of a State and choose
whomsoever pleases her people to go
beside Washington. New Jersey or
Michigan would protest long and loud
If there was an attempt by Virginia to
help select men whose names were to
stand as their representatives.
Many persons lave the impression
that General Lees statue has been
placed in Statuary Hall. This is a
mistake, although there are those who
will insist that they have seen it.
l have had peculiar opportunities to
study h South since my experience
there in the sixties, and l want to say
here that | admire the high patriotism
of the people on the other side of Mason
II Dixon's line which was manifested
particularly in 1898. Let us do nothing
to reopen the wounds of almost fifty
years ago, but say to Virginia if she
desires to place her hero in Statuary
Hall, you are in the Union. It Is for
you to decide" uRIAH SEELY.

TAFT,S MISSION AT THE BANQUET.

NONRESIDENT TAFT's visit to New York city on Saturday had
liz Il double object, namely, to try to straighten out tangled
49, party affairs in New York and Offset the damaging reveia-
tions of corruption in the State Senate at Albany, and to reassure
the country, if possible, as to the administration policies and the
good faith of Congress. 1t was also the Presidents object to Gu ct
the apprchensions of the vested interests. 1t was a comprehensive
task to perform, and it yet remains to be seen how well the Presr
dent accomplished it. He found it necessary to make a long and
iabored defense of the new tariff law, which has met with such
general condemnation, essaying to show that the high cost of the
necessares OF life is not due to the tariff. He holds up the In
creased output of gold as the great underlying cause, and in that
view he will be well confuted, and he makes a gingerly reference
to trust combinations as possibly "a contributory cause in some
cases. The Presidents address has been printed in all the principal
newspapers of the country and is today commented on from ocean
to ocean. We believe it will convince nobody who is not already
convinced. New York organization politics may be patched up in
some shape, the great corruption scandals at Albany may be hushed
Wall Street apprehensions may be quieted, but the distrust and
unrest throughout the country are not to be allayed by the gen
efaHties and statistics in a Lincoln Day banquet speech. The eoun
try wants deeds, not words; performance, instead of promise. 1t
can see little to hope for in the long winded talk, the desultory
Proceedings and evident reluctance to act that are witnessed at
Washington.

The Lee statue.


To the Editor of tho Evening Star:
According to recent published ac-
the Grand Army of the Re-
pubic in Michigan has entered a live
ly protest against allowing a statue
of General r. e. Lee to be placed by
Virginia beside that of General Wash
ington in ''the Hall of Fame in the
national capitol This interesting
statement appeared in a local news
paper. The statements made by men,
bers of Congress who have been dis
eussing this subject with much vigor
Of late. as we'll as the published ac-
counts of protests. show that there is
confusion in the minds of the G. A. r.
and of the public in general as to the
whereabouts Of the Hall of Fame.
The Hall of Fame is in New York
city. 1t sprang into existence in 1900.
The phiianthropist who contributed the
$250.000 for its endowment withheld his
name. The hall is dedicated to contain
tablets to great Americans. A board
of trustees a authorized to solicit
nominations for place in the gallery of
fame. and these nominations were sub

NEWARK,S RIVAL IN JAMAICA BAY.

cTA HERE is little for New Jersey in the draft of the rivers and
Ill harbors bill reported to the House of Representatives. The
Middle West gets the great bulk of the appropriations, and,
while large provision is made for the proposed waterway system
in the Mississippi valley, the Atlantic coastal waterway gets no con-
sideration whatever. New York is given $55O000 as a first install
ment of 100000 TO. the development of Jamaica bay, conditional
upon the appropriation of $10000000 by New York to build the
necessary piers and docks. This appropriation has a peculiar in
ferest for Newark. 1t shows that energetic work has been done
both in New York and Washington by the promoters of the project
Of making Jamaica bay a part of commercial New York, while the
Newark authorities have been dilydallying with the plan of
meadow and Newark bay development. The superior advantages
Of the Newark bay front to that of Jamaica bay are SO great, how
ever, that the proposed development of the latter should only in
spire Newark with greater energy. Commerce goes where it has
tie best conveniences and the closest connections. Twentyfour
years ago Efastus Wiman believed that the State Island water.
front could be developed SO as to transfer the great steamship and
railroad terminals from Jersey City and Hobokep to Staten Island.
President Garrett, of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company
Shared that belief: The bridge across the Arthur XIII was built
hut the dream of Wiman proved illusory. Commerce could not be
forced to go to Staten Island. Wiman died a bankrupt and Gar
tstt died insane,

THE PRUSSIAN SOCIALIST PROTEST.

1N HERE are two great forces in Germany that confront each
~ other--militarism and Socialism. One has the bayonet, the
other has not. One has the power and prestige of law and
government, and the other has only the voice of protest. That
voice was heard in the cities of Prussia yesterday. In Berlin fl ty
thousand Socialists held crowded meetings to protest against the
franchise bill framed by the Prussian government, but 1T was an
impotent protest. Berlin is a garrison. The franchise bill will be
passed. The electoral system of Prussia is unique. There is no
show for he proetariat. Land, wealth and title hold all the
trumps in the game of Prussian politics. The wonder is that this
political injustice, which rankles so deeply among the masses, does
not sap the nations strength and endanger it's future.

PREVENTION OF POVERTY, VICE AND CRIME.

c. ECRETARY McDOUGALL. of the Newark Bureau of Char
tiles, in his address to the State Conference of Charities at
Camden yesterday, justly observed that there is need for
scientific inquiry into the causes for the vast expenditure in this
State for charitable and correctional institutions. MI. McDougall
submitted estimates showing that the annual expenditure by the
State is ~$1S00000 and by the subdivisions of the State about
$4,000 900, while the plants maintained aggregate $2S,000,O00 in
money value. A commission in 1908 made an investigation, but it
necessarily only skinned the surface, and it had no substantial
results. The attention of the world is now directed more to pre-
ycntion than ever before. Medical science pursues its inquiries
and has achieved wonderful results in combating disease. We
have made great progress in sanitation by investigation, and by the
same means many great secrets have been wrung from nature.
The Federal government maintains Il large staff of chemists for
he investigation of soils and plants and foods for the betterment
Of the conditions of human existence. Why should government
endure the enormous annual expense of poverty, vice and CT me
@hhout the most thorough investigation in their causes, with a
view 10 prevention?

on AS FUEL FOR WARSHIPS.

IT II it be true that the British admiralty has decided to substitute
III oil for coal as fuel for warships, a great revolution in naval
methods. which has been prefgured, is now begun. Other
maritime nations will not fail to adopt the new fuel after its sue
cess has been demonstrated by the British navy. In fact, there is
no assurance that Germany has not anticipated England. This
will enormously increase the importance and value of natural oil
properties and make the STANDARD Oil Company vastly richer and
more powerful than it now is, for the oil for the worlds warshil 8
win largely be supplied by this monopoly. With a change from
coal to oil the motive power of the American navy will depend on
Standard Oil supplies almost exclusively.
