Commenting on a church debate between Revs. Martin and Lashlee, the Baptist Advance says: "We venture that a good revival preacher would have been worth more to our cause. A good case of heartfelt religion hurts some isms mighty bad The Journal has always contended that it is more a lack of religion than anything else that prompts these so-called reli- gious debates. What the world needs is more practical Christianity and less of this everlasting bowling and pickering over crceds. What a man believes cuts very little ice; Its what he does that counts.

The Journal has been criticised for publishing items about the wives of Newark merchants going to other towns to shop. If 1t is wrong for q merchants wife to go aut of town to do her trading, it occurs to US that the merchants, hot the newspaper, should right tae wrong.

Farmers who hold their cotton for better prices should see that the bales are placed under shelter and up on something so they will hot touch the ground. There is not much to be gained by holding for better prices, and at the same time allow your cotton to become damaged from dirt and moisture.

NO YARNISH ON THIS

The Cotter Record, like The
 Journal, has been agitating the
 good roads cause, and has found
 some prominent citizens who actu- . ally. oppose road improvement be- cause 1t will cost too much. " That 1 is the whole secret of why some people take nomtefest in or oppose ] the movement to secure good roads
 and other public improvements. ! Some men will spend more money in fighting q proposed public in- . proyement than their share of the improvement would cost. These people can be found in every con-
 munity, and we have some of them right here in Newark. It is being
 told on the streets that a certain citizen of this town has declared that he will spend a thousand dol lars to defeat the present plan to build sidewalks in Newark. Of course he would not spend that much. But the strange feature of such cases is that some people will and actually do spend as much time, money and effort in fighting proposed improvements as they would be taxed to build the im- bfevement.
 Bad roads, for instance, cost the people of any community a large sum annually in time, repair bills. stoVe-up horses, and additional feed, not to mention the worry, inconvenience and discomfort they cause.
 Yet people will go on, year after year, travelling the same old bad roads, and euss the overseer be- cause they have to pay fifty cents or a dollar road tax, as if they thought the six-bits they pay into the road fund ought to build a turnpike from their front door right up to the Golden Gate oIihe New Jerusalem.
 If, instead of cussing the over seer and the road tax, they would get together and do some real. work on the roads, in a few years this country would have some good roads.
 Six dollars per capita in Newark would build concrete sidewalks along all the principal streets of Newark. But start a movement to tax each inhabitant s per an- mum for two years for this pur- pose, and a few old eodgers around here would spend $50 apiece in an effort to defeat it, and put in al months time cayorting around as if they thought the world was on| the road to financial ruin and would go to smash if it were notI for them.
 There are some people in the| world who, if they were dropped into the hemtof Africa, wouldn't | give two-bils to have a path cut out to the pale of civilization.

FoREsHADoWs PUBLIC OWNERSHIP

The decision of the United States supreme
court confirming the Interstate Commerce com
mission S power to regulate all the equipment of
railroads engaged in interstate traffic, even
though such equipment be used only for intra-
state business, has III our opinion an even greater
significance than Commissioner Franklin H. Lane
sees. While he believes that it indicates am ex-
tentlon OF federal authority to the point Of deter
INNING whether proposed line shall be con
Struced, the Dominion Of Canada now decides
we contend that it also foreshadows the absolute
ownership and operation of the railroads of the
country by the government.
AS assertion of the national power over
state interference the decision deserves more
than casual notice. 1t certain.., will not please
the railroad commission OF the individual states
which have been engaged in building up their
own authority and yet any thoughtful person
can understand how it places check upon ten
dency toward veritable chaos
As the court observes the distinction between
equipment used in interstate and that devoted to
ntrasate traffic is practically indefnable The
two classes OF business are mixed in both ears
and trains. One car for instance started from
San Francisco, may carry a conglomerate ship
ment to be distributed at divers points between
that city and Ogden train, necessarily
equipped uniformly from engine to caboose may
be made up of to be dropped off in several
states. Therefore, the contention that the national
safety-appliance law should be applicable only to
rolling stock used strictly in interstate hauling
is plainly illogical and deserved the rebul1c adj

And in general sense, the same is true of

A NAVAL REFORM.

Behold Uncle Sam in he role of chaperon. The
academic board Of the naval academy at Annapo-
lis has ruled that the susceptible naval cadet
shall not dance with more than three girls at
each naval hop The order also provides that
the names OF the three young ladies' who are TO
be escorted by each naval cadet must be given
over to a committee for approval before the dance
to which they are to be invited.
Formerly naval cadets were permitted to dance
with many girls as they were able to pilot
through the mazes of the values and the two
steps, but Uncle Sam, the chaperon, represented
~ the academic board has decided that the
young 'middies'' Of Annapolis have become too
gay and giddy because Of the lack of depart
mental red tape i'll their social affairs
There is a great deal of curiosity concerning
the ruling that the academic board must have the
names Of mlddies partners in advance Does this
mean that the board will exercise the chaperon S
right to bue-pencil IA few names? Does il mean
that the government, taking fatherly and moth
erly interest IN the affairs of the future admiraIs
Will see to 1t that none but young ladies eligible
to become admiralesses will be admitted TO the
hops! 1t looks little that way
Not very long ago naval circles were somewhat
agiatcd because young lady. the daughter of
ale college professor, was snubbed at the naval
academy because she happened to be earning her
own living. Perhaps the ruling of the academic
board is made with the view to prevent
ladies who happen to be working for salaries
from beng invited to social functions at An
napolls and causing these unpleasant discussions.
The work Of keeping the social functions at
Annapolis properly exclusive is so important that
the people at large will appreciate the mantle
nance OF board Of naval officers for the purpose
OF bluepencing the lists Of young ladies' invited
to the naval academy kops 1t is to be hoped
that they will have none but rearadmras ON this
board.
II is too important work to be entrusted
to mere commanders of Dreadnoughts. Only eX-
perenced navlgatols can manage the lady-guest
lists on the Annapolis Naval academy Some of
the naval appropriations that are being foolishlv
diverted to the purchase of torpedo boats should
be turned back to this more important improve
ment Of the service. If our future naval officers
dance with young ladies not in their set there
can be little use in having large navy.

will eventually become chaotic with IS different

Commissioner Lane says: We cannot have
separated articuated arteries of commerce We
must have a national system of railroads under

That is exactly what the nation must have.
