MAY REFLOAT SPANISH SHIPS.

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Sept. A.
President Taft's recent message to
Congress asking that it be determined
whether the Spanish men-of-war sunk
in the battle of Santiago thirteen years
g should be given away, and Secre-
tary KnoX's opinion hat the wrecks
belong to the United States have re-
vived speculation here as to the pos
sible relocating of the ships.
Engineers who have studied the loca
ton of the three battleships and two
torpedo boats are of the opinion that
their salvage is practicable and would
warrant the expense of saving the
hulks.

ANTI WAR SPIRIT IN GERMANY.

6a HE great popular demonstration at Berlin yesterday in which
100000 of the working class assembled to protest against
plunging Germany into a war and against the building of
great ornaments, was a significant sign of the spirit that the gov
eminent has to reckon with in its foreign policy. The Chauvinist
press which shouts defiance and war, does not represent the feeling
of the masses in Germany and is not in harmony with the working
population. But German military preparation, which incites this
newspaper buster, does not near aggressive war The logic of
Germanys existence, surrounded as she is by powerful nations
that would like to humble her and limit her activities, is prepared
ness for war. Germany can command peace only by her ornaments.
If she were weak today it would not be long before she would be
assailed on either flank, or on both.

ROTTEN EGGS AGAIN IN EVIDENCE.

TN URVEYORS of decayed food. driven out of New York and
liz PENNSYLVANIA by the enforcement of the new laws. have
sought New Jersey, where the law is not so strict and where
enforcement has been lax. Seizures of 21,000 pounds of broken rot.
ten eggs in Jersey City, however, show that the State Health Boards
pure food inspectors have begun to get on the Job" These eggs
We're brought from New York to be broken and stored in New
Jersey. All of them were rotten. Says the health officer who made
the seizure; THE eggs were tested scientifically, and the high bc
terra count was enough to kill off most of the population of Jersey
City" This vile and poisonous stuff was intended for the ISL of
bakers of cakes and pies. But should not the men who commit the
public crime of selling putrid eggs for food be punished by State
prison sentences? Is it enough merely TO confscate the rottenness?

A GREAT WESTERN DEMOCRAT.

~ ONERNOR, HARMON, of Ohio, is not as well known person.
MI ally in the East as he is in the West, although his
reputation here puts him in the first rank of the Democratic
national leaders and assures for him a powerful support in the East
for the Democratic nomination for President in 1912. Governor
Harmon has attended strictly TO his State duties, but during the
fall he will appear in the East and people will be able to Judge by
personal contact and by the addresses he will make the real caibre
of the man who may play such an important role in national politics
in another year. Elected for two terms in Republican Ohio, Gov.

Grover Cleveland in New York, when he was first nominated for the
presidency.

COMMISSION BEGINS TO SEE THINGS.

eTTa HE State Public Utilities Commission has now assumed a diff
ferent attitude from that which was assumed in the recent
letter by its secretary to the president of the State Com
muters' Association. Public criticism evidently served TO convince
the commissioners that the commission was not to be allowed to
place limitations upon the duties for which it is 10 highly paid.
The fact is dawning on the commission mind that there is such a
thing as an intrastate Communication rate and that it is the business
of the commission to deal with it. The fact may be recognized by
the commission that Jersey City and Hoboken re as much en-
titled to communication as other cities and towns in the State, and
that the wiping of the two cities from the railroad map is simply
a device to evade State jurisdiction.

Police Judge Charles F.. Herr, while
Investigating the numerous cases which
he is called to pass upon in he Second
and Fourth precincts, tries every
proper means to get the truth of an
affair. but at the same time he has
a broad view of the proper questions
which a witness should be asked.
A prisoner before him recently
wanted to ask a witness a few ques-
tions after the latter had given dam
aging testimony in the case.
DO you tell the truth at all tines?
the prisoner asked the witness.
You do not have to answer hat
question:" said Judge Herr to the wit
ness, II do not think it is a proper one.
