GOWNS OF GIRLS.

TT is to be hoped that the authorities Of the
i Board of Education of this city will act favor
ably upon the suggestion of President Shortlidge
as to the graduation dresses worn by. the young
girls.
Dr. Shortlidge declared that the girls in the
schools worry themselves to the point of nervous
breakdown over the gowns they TO wear, and
that last year one girl really did break down be-
cause of worry and was not able to graduate.
Knowing this condition il is strange that school
authorities have permitted it TO exist for so long
One object of education Of the right sort should
be to instill into the minds Of the young, thought
ful consideration of others but how little is this
realized. On such occasions as a commencement
the children or the parents try to outdo one
another, attempt TO make show"
This is humiliating TO the child of poorer par
ents upon whom the effort TO keep up appearances
and to make a show" on Commencement night
is burdensome tax. The poorer girl knows that
she will he talked about and talked about"
cruelty if she does not look as nice" as the other
girls The girl does not realize that it is all vanity
and really counts for nothing, and that the child
that makes the best show" and is the most talked
of" on Commencement day is often the one that
comes out the worst in the real race Of life.
But the situation is serious as described by DR..
Shortlidge, and the Board of Education should
most certainly take stern action to prevent the
foolish and useless and expensive display at
commencement exercises Simple and uniform
gowns would solve the problem and add dignity to
the occasion, something that is not apparent in the
tawdry display of foolish fnery.
Many a heartaohe will be prevented if DR..
shortlidge's suggestion is followed as we have no
doubt it will be.

THE FIGHT FOR THE PEOPLE.

FORTUNATE indeed is it that the country is
4 blessed with having some keen and alert
public servants of whom Senator Poindexter, Pro-
gressive Republican of the state of Washington
appears to be one. The Guggenheim- Morgan
syndicates scheme to seize the Alaska coal fields
has been baked by the decision of Secretary Fisher
of the Interior Department, but now it appears
that the syndicate had other plans for monopolis-
tic seizures which have been exposed by Senator
Pondexter.
The cunning syndicate has an application before
the department for Harbor privileges around Con-
troller bay which, if granted, according to Mr..
Pondexter, would control the only feasible outlet
for the coal and have all the railroads in their
grasp.
The monopostic syndicate was not dependent
on one method Under the old days in the Senate
when the special interests we're in absolute COM
mand not only would the syndicate have been en-
abed TO seize the coal lands but the monopolistic
privileges of transportation would probably have
been secured.
Such deals as that which Mr.. Poindexter is try
ing to balk show why the special interests and
the capialstic conspirators against the resources
of the nation are so anxious to have their dunn
mics in the Senate.
And in the fight against them the people are al
ways at a disadvantage although it would seem
that the public held the upper hand. The inter
ests have their keen-witted henchmen, they have
their newspapers which distort things so that even
fair minded men are unconsciously led to believe
Just as the interests desire them believe and so
the rapacious pluHder of the people has gone on
increasingly in one form OF another with only here
and there a powerful voice raised in the halls of
legislation against government for plunder.
But happily the army that is fighting against
privilege, hghhng against the domination of spe-
e:al interests and monopoly IS more strongly led
and entrenched than ever, for the army has prac-
tically stormed and carried the strongest fortress
Of predatory privilege, the Senate, but it will be
only by unceasing vigilance that it will be enabled

Automobiles and Churches.

Newark Ledger
VIII the automobile attract people
from attending churches on Sundays?
There is a desire of many people to
stay away from divine SERVE on Sun
day. No good reason can be given
except, they have gotten out of the
habit" They claim that going to
church is a habit, which is wrong. No
one should consider it a habit to at
tend church. It is mans duty to his
divine Father
The automobile Is now figuring as
good excuse for many TO absent
themselves from divine service. VIII
the attractiveness OF the auto draw
people away from the church as they
increase in numbers?
It is evidenced now that the auto
will prove a strong factor in keeping
people from church.
The time asked by the church is
trifing compared with the other hours
of the week. An hour at midday
and an hour at early dusk is all the
church asks of the people. II is the
duty of every one to give a short time
to divine service.
It is not our intention to decry ths
automobile. They have come to stay
and are one Of the most useful in
ventions created by man. To the
people belong the recommendation OF
condemnation of the auto. The auto
is all right, and the country would
feel a serious loss at its withdrawal
The people are pleasure loving, anC
the auto affords real pleasure.
The people will realize in a shor
time the duty they owe the church
and will make the auto useful il
church purposes.

plenty of noise not so great perhaps as few years
ago when the barbaric racket was permitted with
Out let or hindrance
One of the most persistent agitations ever be-
gun in this country is that against the mad cele-
braton of the Fourth of July The agitation has
been slow in accomplishing results, because of the
careessness and indifference of parents, or perhaps
because of what Mr.. Jackson recently described as
the modern method of the rule of parents by
children supplanting the rule Of children by par
ents. In some cities, however, the children them
selves have actually engaged in the movement for
a rational Fourth of July.
Wherever there are no really effective rules for
protecting the community--life and property
from the dangers of an outrageous celebration of
the Fourth the authorities are directly to blame
Year after year the frightful death and injured
list has been published. The effects of the day
Of terror have been portrayed with all their bloody
details.

HOW TRuSTS WORK.

TURING the Sugar Trust investigation Mr..
- Havemeyer son of H o. Havemeyer, founder
Of the trust, gave some very frank testimony con-
cerning the methods of the trust.
Another witness had told of the enormous pro-
fits the promoter obtained, the payment being with
watered stock and Mr. Havemeyer declared that
the purpose of the combination was to reduce the
production as we'll as to cut down the cost
There is no doubt that great economies are made
in the cost of production by the trusts. lne for
nation Of every trust is defended by its promot-
ers for this reason. and they claim that the cost
of the article under trust methods is lowered TO the
consumer.
1t is an open question just how much the con-
sumer has been benefited if at all by the economies
effected by trusts The people generally believe
that the profits of the economies go to the trust
magnates Mr. Havemeyers statement that the
trusts reduce production makes IL quite clear
that the consumer is not really benefited.
The real progress of a nat on industrially is
a plentiful supply of commodities at low cost
to the consumer BY limiting production, trusts
create an artificial price and harm the community.
