NEW PAPER COMES OUT;
DECLARES AGAINST TAFT,

Los ANGELES, Cal, July b.-The
Tribune. f.. Tobias Earl's new Q
cent morning paper, made its bow yes
terday. The first page is taken up
with commendatory remarks by Will
lam Jennings Bryan, Senator La Fol-
lette, Senator John D.. Works n Con-
gresham Stevens. The new news
paper opposes Taft and favors La Fol-
lette for President, and proclaims 1t
self independent and progressive. The
first column is devoted to an attack on
Hearst and General Otis, because they
efuse to permit the Tribune to share
the special mail train" that the Times
and tho Examiner charter to distribute
papers in the outlying districts every
morning.
In view oil the fact that he idea of
the paper was only ten days old when
the first copy appeared yesterday
morning, the second page is evoted
to the story of how 1t was done from
the birth of the idea, growing out of
the fight between Mr.. Earl and Cen
eral Otis. The staff lis made up of local
men principally. John Elliott, formerly
superintendent of the local office of
the Associated Press, is managing
editor. Wesley M. Barr, formerly of
the Herald, is city editor.

AEROS WILL IGNORE ARMIES
AND WAR AGAINST RULERS.

-" #aEZH 49, fa H EAH
The consequence Of the introduction
of aerial warfare appears Immediately
to anyone whose thoughts are not OBJ
scured by traditions of military meth
DDS OF the past. The whole direction Of
attack Is to be shifted, says a writer In
Casters, not 10 the enemy's forces but
against its responsible directors. The
point of Immediate attack will become
the seat of government. and the blow
directed against the men who, by their
legislative and executive positions, are
responsible for the conditions which
have made warfare possible.
Until now wars have been declared
by civilians, by rulers and Legislators,
executive authorities under whatever
name, and. their mandates have eeen
more or less successfully carried out ny
others. while these responsible individ-
uals have remained securely in peace
and comfort behind the lines which
form the front of their respective
armies and navies.

WERTHEIMER COLLECTION.

LONDON, July 5.-Duyeen Brothers
that they have purchased
the greater portion OF the collection of
works of aft formed by the late
Charles wertheimer. 49,
Mr.. wertheimer, who wat one Of the
leading art dealers of Europe, died last
April Is. His house in Norfolk street,
Park Lane, London, Is full of precious
objects, including many masterpieces
of the English school of the eigh-
tenth century, an extraordinary col
lection of snuff boxes n a number
of splendid specimens of the. art OF
the Italian Renaissance.
It was Mr.. Wertheimer who bought
a year ago at Christie's the famous
enameled gold and rock crystal BIZ
boron of the sixteenth century that
belonged to the late Baron Schroeder,
paying $4,000 for it. Five years pre-
viously he had purchased 1t for $78.-
600 at the Gabitas sale, and Baron
Schroeder bought it from Mr.. Vert
heimer for a much greater sum.
Paintings and other art objects of
an estimated value of about 5000. 600
were stolen from ~. Wertheimer's
house on the night If February IL,
1907. The greater part of the stolen
property was subsequently recovered
and the thieves were convicted.

JugffHes
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
I am a member of a very conservative
family, and we often indulge in after
dinner arguments about the "evils" of
undertaking and s~ensationalism in the
newspapers. I find that I I'm the only
one of the family who upholds the
newspapers attitude about publishing
sensational news, and my arguments
are usually dismissed with little con-
sideration. / want TO know If someone
who reads this column doesn't think the
way 1 do about 1t.
I hold that the more publicity given to
divorce cases or corporate robberies, or
anything under the ban of public
opinion and private society, SO much
the more will people hesitate before be-
coming involved in such affairs.
This is particularly true of divorces.
and I believe the quickest way to cure
the evil is to make 1t so distasteful that
people will think a long time before
getting involved In a divorce suit.

NEW DECLARATION
IS BEING URGED
President Emeritus of Harvard
Doesn't Think Historic Docu-
ment Meets Conditions.

BOSTON, Mass, July 5.-The neces-
sity of providing a new Declaration OF
Independence as a means OF resisting
the oppressive effects of industrial
government was one Of the suggestions
of DIR. Charles W.. Eliot, president
emeritus of Harvard, yesterday in de-
livering the annual Fourth of July
grafton at Faneuil Hall.
"Of one thing we may be sure" said
he. namely. that industrial freedom
Will not be promoted by measures
which diminish personal self-reliance,
voluntary industry, and ambition and
earnestness In work. Whatever de-
prives a man of q personal. individual
motive for sclf- Improvement and ro-
bust exertion will not make him free,
but, on the contrary, more s~ervile, and
In the long run less intelligent, indus
trious, and free. for freedom Is a mat

ways and meant of earning his W
livelihood and that of his family. 1t
matters little so far as his condition
of freedom is concerned, whether that
other be a king, a f1anancier, a trade
union, or an association Of employees
There is such a thing as rational
submission in matters of common oon-
Germ to the will of the majority; but
submission to the will OF the majority
in a numerous body may be as ab5ect
a thing as submission to tho Will Of
q. single despot, or small group OF
despots, so far as the effect on char
acter goes, particularly II the man
who submits has absented himself
from the preliminary discussions and
the vote. Untoward circumstances be-
yond his control may force a stout
hearted mar to subordinate his own
will and wishes and accept a control
external to himself. but that only
means that circumstances prevent him
SO far from being 1t freeman"
DR.. Eliot said that m~onopolies which
are indispensable to efficiency must be
regulated by government and that
those which are artificial. and not
necessary, must be destroyed. He
also declared that a Declaration of In
dependence il 1t were written now
would among other things set forth
that every citizen in a free State has
an u~nalienable right to thai amount
of employment which will yield for
him and his family a decent living;
that every worker has a right to be
insured against the personal losses due
to acute sickness, chronic invalidism,
injuries through accident, and the In
evitable disabilities Of old age that
every man has a right to the normal
pleasures and enjoyments OF life and
leisure to enjoy himself, and that all
the instruments of production, tineiud-
ing the land and all the means of dis
tributing products should belong, not
to individuals, but to the State or to
society as a whole.

NM ORE than rs per cent of the population of New Jersey is
IVN urban, meaning that of places of $500 population n more.
There has been an increase of 5 per cent. of urban popu-
lation m the total population and a decrease of nearly 5 per cent.
of the whole in the rural districts. The urban communities add
two persons to their population where rural communities add one.
But the difference between urban and rural is really much greater.
Included in the statistics of rural population as distinguished from
the urban are the people of scores of suburban places of less than
$500 population each. These people are neither country villagers
nor agrculturists. They r urban, They belong TO the cities.
Cut these out of the rural population in New Jersey and it's per
centage of the whole will not be above 10 or 20.

To the EDITOR Of tho hyening star:
You were kind enough to print my
letter last week on the penny-a-day
books at the Newark Free Public Lii
brary and later you received a letter
from an observer who literally
hauled me over the Goals for my opin-
ions. I would like to answer "Ob-
server" and II you find 1t convenient, I
would deem It a great favor should
you print this reply.
Observer talks about letting out
certain kinds of books free for a
month. The books we were consider
Ing are the one in great demand.
observer" wants to make good his
cognomen and observe tina these books
are given out free for seven days only
and after that a fine Is imposed II the
books are not returned.
With all due respect to observer
and the librarians who hit upon the
penny-a-day plan after careful CON-
sheraton" 1 insist the present sys-
tenn for distributing these popular
books is inadequate. observer
wants to know what could be done
with n hundred of these books, after
the demand fol. them fell off. There
would be no room In which to file
them and the people would then howl
of the extravaganza, he claims. If the
library authorities bought one hundred
of~these books and let them out for
two weeks free, with a fine attached
for stepping over hat limit, the situa-
ton would be greatly relieved.
The books need not be filed away
after the demand has fallen off-that
would be ~nonsensical. What would be
the use of keeping them If they were
not wanted? The librarians could file
away an ordinary amount of the books
and sell the others In a bulk to some
secondhand dealer. OF course, there
would be a great difference In the pur-
chasing price and the money the Sec
ond-hand dealer would give to take
them off our hands. At the same time
the secondhand dealer would pay a
good price If he were to get all the
books so disposed of at the library in
a year This man could be selected
by competitive bidding, the same
method as is used to obtain the sup
plies of other public Institutions Ever
If the city did lose a couple of thou
sand dollars a year by this practise, II
these good, popular and joy-givine
books were read by several thousand
persons Who never had a chance be-
fore, would not the candle be worth
the game? . iINQUISITIvE."

JUPITER CAUGHT IN COMET THEFT.

The evidence that Jupiter steals
comets is both direct and circumstan-
tial. There are thirty or more comets
that have periods of from three and a
third to seven and a half years. The
comets seem to vibrate from Jupiter's
path around the sun ana back again. to
pay their homage to him In such a way
that it cannot be accidental.
A second striking fact shown In such
mar is the position of the nodes of the
orbits of these comets. No matter
what their angles or how far they go
beyond Jupiter they all plunge through
the plane of his orbit near the actual
path of Jupiter. These facts make the
proof almost conclusive. But, as IL
that were not enough, Jupiter has been
caught red-handed.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
There are certain sections of the city,
particularly the poorer ones, that are
wofuily neglected by the city authori-
ties, as far as c~rosswalks are concerned.
I Wish to call your attention particu-
hriy to the imperative need of a cross
walk at the intersection of Sussex ave-
nue. and Look and Nesbitt streets.
Where these three thoroughfares run
together there Is a stretch of Belgian
block pavement as long as the width of
two ordinary streets. and, to get from
convenient corner TO another these
blocks must be traversed. assthere is
no crosswaik. The intersection Is a
most busy one. and autos rush UP and
down Sussex avenue usually al railroad
speed. A crosswaik would be some
what of a protection, because the
speeders would naturally slow up a bit.

When one considers the suffering

mating dubious cases of heat prostra-

JERSEY CITY TO HAVE ITS SAY.

TT ERSEY CITY is to have a commission government election this
month, the necessary number of names for the petition having
been obtained. In this Case, curiously enough, the great ma
iorfty of the petitioners are opposed to commission government
and will vote against the proposition. Their object in signing the
petition is to get an early election and dispose of the question prior
to the September primary election campaign. Inasmuch as Jersey
CITY was among the first cities in which the movement was,started
to secure the change of government provided by the commission
act, the election soon to be held will be of wide interest. And yet,
the conviction will generally be held that the verdict will be an
adverse one and even more emphatic than those that were recorded
in the elections in Hoboken and New Brunswick.

COTTON IS KING AGAIN.

m BUMPER crop of cotton is promised, the largest in the
IN history of the country, and exceeding the record crop
of 1904 by about a million babes. The crop will not be out
of danger until September has expired, but all the chances are
favorable for the estimate given. There is an average of 800
hounds to a cotton bale, and a million bales means 500 900
pounds. AS all the cotton is grown in the Southern States the
South will reap immense benefit. Time was when cotton was said
to be king. In those days the cotton growers were the nabobs of
the nation. The tariff has created a much richer and less tolerable
class of nabobs in the North, and there are trust magnates who
could purchase States of the South. But cotton has not abdicated
an it's kingship. 1t is the one staple in which this country is I'M
rivaled and which Europe cannot do without. 1t is independent
of trust control, and it is the solid basis of a prosperity for the
South that will again make that section one of the richest in the
country.

oToHERE is a deeply gratifying change in the reports of acct
dents and casualties in this city resulting from the Fourth
of July celebration. In former years when the celebration
was unconfned the hospitals received many cases. Physicians
were kept busy attending to the injured and the pharmacies did a
large, business In the sale of remedies. Not a few households were
bereaved. In the celebration yesterday the dangerous pistol was
not in evidence, the cannon cracker lost it's terrors, and dangerous
exnlosives of all kinds we're tabooed. AS a result there were few
injuries to record. At the same time the FIRE department was not
kept IN the jump all day by incipient fires caused by fireworks.
Next year the Chinese form of celebration will be altogether out
lawed. but not the celebration. That must take a new form un-
less, indeed, Newark will have forgotten the immortal traditions
of 1776.
