D~ana.ReIief Society Show
Great Improvement
Ali Anxious to Make Big
Showing Next Monday
End Draws Near.

Judging from the large vote which
the Dana Relief Society show on the
reports for next Monday received to
this writing, the petition which they
are sending out must be meeting with
instant liberal response From several
quarters where they have not ia the
past been receiving a very large vote,
there is q noticeable increase shown
this week. In other voting precincts
Ehere they have always made q good
showing, they are much stronger this
week. With such work as they are now
doing the members of this organization
will at once become serious c~ontenders
for first position; they may even se
cure enough votes to go to the front
should other places unreported stand
by them as well as those already re-
ceived.
This fact will make the contest all
the more interesting. The vote for the
first few contestants this week is very
large. and Judging from some o. the
reports received several people have
been paying large bills and this Is
another feature that always makes it
extremely hard to forecast the result.
A large payment on account and a
consequently corresponding large vote
for some one contestant very often
fools the contest man entirely.
The only advice 10 tho oft repeated
one--get all your friends lined up for
your favorite, small, large and medium
sized votes all count Ia the total. The
EVENING NEWS coupon means votes.

Current Comment
WINFIELD S. SCHLEY.

Winfield Scott Schley. who died
yesterday in this city. had an eXcep-
tionally active and diversified career
as an officer of the United States
navy Had the battle of Santiago
de Cuba never been fought and the
controversy following it never arisen
Rear Admiral Schley would still have
been a figure of Importance in naval
records. He served efficiently in the
Civil war. took part in the attack
on the Corean forts on the Nalu
river in 1871, had charge of the sue
cessful Greedy relief expedition to
Cape Sabine, Greenland, receiving a
gold medal from congress for that
rescue; was in command Of the
cruiser Baltimore in the harbor of
Valparaiso when American sailors
were stoned by a mob in that city
and hostilitieS with Chill were with
difficulty averted, and had filled
conspicuous administrative posts i'm
the navy department with credit. Had
his retirement occurred before the
outbreak of the Spanish war he would
have been remembered as naval Of
ficer who had won distinction and
made the most Of several rather I'M
usual opportunities.
The naval campaign Of 1898 made
Admiral Schlcy's name familiar the
world over, but that access Of fame
also had its drawbacks. The bitter
ness of the dispute into which he was
drawn and the charges and counter
charges made by partisans on both
sides form a highly regrettable
chapter in our naval history. We do
not wish to revive the controversy
as TO Admiral SChley's activities off
Santiago. Yet il must be evident
that as the happenings there drop
back into a better perspective and
the intense prejudice and personal
bitterness of those days cease To dis
turb the Judgment, public opinion is
inclined to accept the view that he
suffered not altogether justly from
the obvious hostility of most Of his
brother officers. The shortcomings
at Santiago which a naval inquiry
fixed upon him were negative rather
than positive, and under ordinary
circumstances would have been more
or less negligible. Yet So great was
the fractional feeling Of that day that
instead of recognizing that there was
honor enough To 20 around the cN-
IRENE partisans on both sides simply
drove congress and the country into
an attitude of unwillingness To- give
anybody sufficient credit for the
destruction of Admiral Cervera's
fleet
1t was a unique victory in that
spokesman for the victors by their
acrimonious proceedings put the ma
ton out of humor to remember their
triumph either with rewards or with
unmixed gratitude II is probable
that a more discreet attitude all
around would have enabled both
Rear Admiral Sampson and Rear Adj
miral Schley to close their service as
vice admirals-New York Tribune.

with presidents of genuine value in
its prosecution of commercial COM

the country, regulating by agreement
the prices under which all lamps are
sold, the decree sewers all relation

company and the National Electric
company The latter concern and al
its subsidiaries are ordered dissolved
The important principle is laid down.
according To- the attorney general,
that once Il lamp is sold by man
ufacturer the price at which it is To-
be rcsold by the jobber and retailer
must be open To- free competition.
The decree is acquicsccd i'm by the
independent companies. After the

The action Of the Young Mems
Christian Association in backing
the proposition for the establishment
.of a Fairgrounds system in Phoenix
is one Of the most commendable steps
that organization could possibly have
taken. And if wisdom be used in the
promotion Of this desirable innova-
ton there is little question but it will
receive the hearty support of every
public spirited citizen Of Phoenix.
The utility and benefit Of the play
ground is no longer the subject Of
question 1t has long ago passed the
experimental stage and in numberless
cities throughout the country play
grounds are now as firmly established
lin the civic life as are the public
schools or any other fundamental in
stitution
The Fairgrounds make for both
the health and the morals of the
children. They mean clean habits
and clean lives; they mean the sub
stitution Of clean and healthy sport
for unclean and unhealthy sport;
and they mean the elimination Of
vicious companionship.
The exact method Of establishing
the playground system here has not
been decided as yet; but it is likely
that matter will be taken up soon. As
The Republican understands it the
beginning will be Of a modest ma
ture and will not necessitate the eX-
penditure of any considerable amount
of money The experience of many
small towns and cities in the east
where Fairgrounds have been in sue
cessfuI operation for some years is
that no large amount of money Is
needed. And here with the many
vacant lots that could be rented for
a merely nominal sum and with the
numerous civic bodies that would be
glad to further so laudable a matter,
the success Of the Fairgrounds move
ment should be assured from the be-
ginning.
1t is quite certain, therefore, that
the the plan of the Y. NJ c. a. can
be carried through without difficulty
1t is a movement in which everybody
will be glad to help and in when
everybody will take lasting interest
