The Schoolboy and the Rife.

Schoolboy rifle shooting Is making head
way outside of as well as within the Dis
trict. and the indoor tournament OF the
schools of the District OF Co
iumbia. which Is being held this week on
the National Guard indoor range under
the auspices OF the Interscholastic Rifle
Association OF the District. Is impor-
tant and significant. II schooiboys are
to have military drill they should also
learn to shoot. Good drill Is an excel
lent thing In promoting discipline and
intoxicating the habit OF prompt and I'M
hesitating obedience of orders. but rife
manship Is the chief accomplishment OF
the effective soldier. When Americans
were a nation OF pioneers and backwoods-
men they shot well. AS the country
settled up and people crowded into cities
rife shooting would have become lost
art had not some interest In It been kept
alive by a small body OF enthusiasts AS
the United States in its future wars will
depend in large part on the volunteer,
rifle practice might well be encouraged
under those safeguards which are thrown
around shooting on properly equipped and
prudently conducted ranges Rife shoot
ing in itself Is good sport. demands keen
|co-ordtnation between brain and muscle.

Peace With japan.

One advantage of the war In Mexico is
that it has given the United States peace
with Japan. The United States has not
been invaded for a month, and the
United States flag still floats over the
Pacific coast. The strategists Of the
press and chautauqua circuit have turned
their talents from the orient to the south,
and are now making the United States
the invader instead Of the invaded. The
yellow peril has faded,
1t has required a strong counter-at-
traction and assurances from many men
In official life to allay the apprehension
which literary warriors were creating in
some quarters. But the people, as Secre-
tary Knox in his address at the late din
ner OF the American Asiatic Association
said they would, have CLOSED their ears
to false reports and resolutely refused to
allow their feelings to be ruffled by the
vaporings of sensationists." and have
come to believe, as Baron Uchida said
at the same meeting, that Japan is a
nation whose chief glories have been won
in the arts of peace, a nation which has
fourished and prospered during centuries
Of peace and which looks forward to yet
more glorious achievements-ofp peace"
It is pleasant to be relieved from the
terrible strain Of the Americana Japanese
war which was being fought in bold
type.

and provides an incentive for a man to
keep himself in excellent physical condi-
ton. The rife shot, should he be called
into his country's military service, and
providing he can march. may be trans
formed into a soldier much more readily
than the man who is stranger to the
rifle.
Military training for schoolboys was
given an impetus in letter which Presi-
dent Taft wrote few weeks ago to
President James Of the University Of IL
linois, in which the chief magistrate said:
II congratulate you on your cadets SOL
dierly appearance, the fine discipline and
training that they have exhibited and on
tho necessarily beneficial effect that the
military discipline and the physical train
ing must have upon all your young men. !"
Disasters have been suffered, wars long
drawn out, death lists heightened and
pension rolls made needlessly long by
putting dependence in unframed volun-
teers. The military rife is a good thing
for the young American to learn, with
the understanding, Of course, that he
learns under competent instructors and
practices only in places where the use
of rife is provided for.

Serious Deliberations.

Our legislatures hard at work;
1t never yet was known to shirk.
Its daily duty is. you see,
To cheer the lives Of you and me-
Its members sit up until late
Determined to. investigate.
And they've discovered many fact,
Both interesting and exact.
In formal language they declare
That some have too much cash to spare
While others are cast down in gloom
AS ultimately they consume.
The prices high that some things touch
Occur because they cost SO much:
The housefiy should be made to go
Just how or where we do not know.
Mosquitoes should be banished quite,
And husbands should stay home at night
Hotels and railroads should be made
To give returns for money paid
And there are grafters who, alas.
Unpublished still contrive to pass
And so it goes; the list is long.
With wisdom vast and courage strong,
Whateer may be the ills that wait,
They're ready to investigate.

The Mission Worker.

The delegates to the National Fedora
ton of Gospel Missions holding a con-
vention in Luther Place Memorial Church
have spoken we'll Of the mission and res
cue work done in the capital. The impor-
lance Of this work Is by some persons not
appreciated and its extent is not generally
understood. Washington is home-keep-
ing town, where people on the whole are
well fed and well enough. clothed, and.
though by no means selfish, as a mass of
facts attests, yet its people do not come
into close touch with the phases Of sin.
helplessness and want with which the
mission workers are in hourly contact.
The great percentage Of Washingtonians
have their church home, fulfill their re-
ligious obligations and subscribe gener-
ously to the various sweet charities that
are maintained or aided by the church
organizations. But unless especially in
terested in the work they do not gen.
orally comprehend the field Of Christian
endeavor in which the mission men and
women spend their efforts. 1t should
perhaps be otherwise.
Much of this mission work deals both
with the spiritual and the physical recla-
nation Of men and is Of worth to the
church and the state. The gospel worker
stretches forth a hand to the fellow who
is down and out, puts into him some hope,
helps him to get a square meal, teaches
him prayer and starts him to singing
q hymn. In many cases these workers
make q man over-take q moral bankrupt
and make him solvent. They deal with
men who would perhaps balk at a church
and give them the kind of consolation
which touches them most surely and
most deeply.
These mission workers have their place
in the world and seem to put into their
efforts the truly Christian spirit.

son state in the next democratic national
convention, and the situation Is thus de-
scribed: At home former Gov Folk has
no strength. and Speaker Clark, while
personally popular. Is not regarded as
presidential aspirant. And SO the demo-
Gratis are considering only Gov. Wilson
and Gov. Harmon. with present inclina-
ton toward the former, both by reason
Of his record and the belief that he is
much admired by Mr.. Bryan, who retains
a strong influence in the Ozark country
Why count Mr.. Clark out in this fash
ion? He is not an announced candidate
for the presidency, but neither is Gov
Wilson. Both men are figuring In presi-
Dental speculation on the strength OF
what they have recently accomplished IN
politics. Has Gov Wilson any advantage
on that score? It does not appear on
the face Of things.
Gov. Wilson Is the first democrat 10
serve in the post of Governor OF New
Jersey in many years. Mr.. Clark Is the
first democrat to serve in the Speaker S
chair In Congress in many years. GOV.
Wilson was elected by a handsome major
ity. Mr.. Clark had no opponent In MS
own party for the speakership. Gov. Will
son is showing courage and capacity IN
Office. Mr. Clark is showing those same
Qualities in his office. New Jersey has
never been represented in the White
House, and with a good man TO oner she
thinks that now is her time. Missouri has
a similar record, and Mr.. Clarks friends
think he is the man with whom it should
be broken.
1t Is safe to say-although Mr.. Bryan
himself has not said it-that as between
Gov. Wilson and Gov Harmon the peer
less leader, if forced to a choice. would
choose the former. He does not fancy
Gov. Harmon, though 1t cannot be solely
because of the latter's Identification with
Clevelandism in 1896. That objection
would lie against Gov. Wilson, who also
was anti-Bryan at that time. and even
later The real reason will come out
when the campaign Is Older.
But as between Mr.. Bryan and MIR.
Clark there has never been difference.
They have been in accord on all the lead
ing policies Of their day. and are now in
accord. Mr.. Clark has supported Mr..
Bryan three times for President, and ..-r.
Clark's election to the speakership brought
!only compliments from Mr.. Bryan. Is
there room for much. If any, doubt about
where either Missouri or Mr.. Bryan will
stand If the, Clark boom continues to
grow. and Mr.. Clark, in obedience to the
wishes Of his friends at home and else
where. submits his name for consideration
in connection with next years presiden-
tial nomination?

Lieut.. Kelly's Death.

Aviation continues to take its toll Of
human life. The fate Of Lieut.. Kelly.
18th Infantry. U. s. A., killed at Fort
Sam Houston yesterday, will call forth
especial expressions Of regret through
out the country in that this brave man
and good soldier went to death in the
performance Of his duty. Pathetic as all
aeroplane tragedies are. that at Fort Sam
Houston was particularly so. Lieut.. Kelly
was not killed while cutting aerial antics
He was not taking chances to give thrills
to gaping crowd. He was engaged in
the plain performance Of a new and
perilous military duty. The aeroplane as
a scout machine has remarkable posi-
bilities and it is the duty of the army to
develop this aid to military reconnais-
sance. Lieut.. Kelly will be remembered
with Lieut.. Selfridge as martyr to the
cause of progress in his profession.

The Fellows and the Correction.

The Columbia State does The Star an
injustice in the matter of Assistant Sec
rotary Wilson's proposition to subsid1ze
a few newspapers to counterfeit IN
Latin America and the far east sensa-
tional stories issuing from this country
respecting this governments foreign
policies. The Star deplored the course of
yellow newspapers on that subject. but
distinctly stated that whatever harm had
been done was not chargeable to them
alone, and could not have been prevented
by a subsidized press. 1t pointed out that
the sensational deliverances of certain
managing politicians and men In high
office had wrought unfavorably for us
abroad, and stated that subsidized press
would have been powerless against them.
What, asks the State, would a SUBJ
sidized press have said at the time of the
taking over of the Philippines. of the ac-
ton respecting Cuba, and of that respect
ing Colombia and the Panama canal?
1t would not have mattered. All three
of those questions We're canvassed, pro
and con. by an unsubsidized press, and
settled by Congress in conformity with
we'll ascertained public sentiment. II
this country has suffered in the eyes OF
Latin America and the orient because OF
the governments actions in those cases,
the large majority of the American peo-
pie. and not yellow newspapers or yell
low politicians, are responsible. But has
it? We are much more welcome in the
Philippines than any other great power
would be: we did not 'relinquiSh our
grip on the Cuban bone with snarling
hesitancy," but promptly, and to the gen
eral applause; and we are building the
Panama canal with the cordial good will
of all the world. Colombia, along with
all the rest Of Latin America, will profit
greatly from the piercing Of the isthmus.
A subsidized press would be futile in
any case. but especially so as an attempt
to correct the abuses Of the yellow press.
The yellows, both In Journalism and
statesmanship, we have always with us.
But they do not often prevail. Very
often they correct themselves-carry the
antidote along with their poison. They
overdo their roles. Making incessant
and extravagant demands on credulity,
and frequently failing to deliver the
goods" they come to the point after
awhile where even an affidavit would not
save them.
II the case Of Representative Hobson
il conspfcuously citable it Is because he
himself has made II SO. For years his
chief aim has been to interpret Japan to
u, and US to japan and Europe. Has
ho not at last come to perfect harmless
ness on the subject? Do his japanese
war cries elicit more than Impotence or

wherever they penetrate. He does no

Upon the whole. Uncle Sam is getting
along very well. as the State must know;

DR.. Gallaudet's Retirement.

Gallaudet, for more than half a century

affairs Of the Columbia Institution for the

adequate appreciation Of the steady pur-
pose and the long list Of good works of
this able and devoted educator. He was

to call him a pioneer in his chosen field.

Gallaudet taught in that school before
he founded what was then called the
Columbia Institution for the Deaf, Dumb
and Blind. title which recently has
been shortened. There were some schools
in Europe for deaf mutes. but the art
OF teaching these people was perhaps
carried to its highest point Of skill and
merit in America, and the local institu-

OF full education into thousands Of minds
that otherwise would have remained in
comparative darkness, and by all the
people who during his long service at
Kendall Green have come under his infiu-
ence he is held in affectionate regard
His friends in Washington know that
though he has transmitted the burden OF
his routine labors to younger hands, his
brain and will are strong and effective,
and in the deserved enjoyment of the
ease Of comparative restfulness and in
the lighter. helpful activities In which
his energetic spirit will find congenial oc-
cupation, they wish for him all the hap
