QUE, courts have
taken a power
which the Constitution
does not give them
a power which is seldom
used for your benefit
"a power which the
courts of no other
country have. England
would not tolerate such
courts. France would
not have one like them.
Germany would not
stand for them. Even
Spain would decline to
have courts like ours.
Yetwe have them. Mind
you, the Constitution
does not give our courts
this power. They've
just taken it. How that
was done and how the
autocratic power Is used

Not Worrying Much.
In Pensacola, while the people are
not at all pleased over the closing of
the navy yard, they are a little COM
forted in the fact that 1t IS not to be
dismantled and may be reopened again
at any time. when the desirability of
having such a sation becomes ap-
parent. With the changing admins
trations and the different opinions held
by those in authority the reopening of
the navy yard might be within a few
years-or not at all. Pensacola, how
ever, is very much above worrying
about anything like this and will go on
improving her port and adding to her
splendid commerce. Jacksonville

NEW SCHEME FOR
PUBLIC UTILITIES
District Commission Which Shall Also Help Other
Cities in an Advisory Capacity.

water systems. and the erection and
maintenance of telephone systems.
Applying its services primarily to the
District of Columbia the commission, it
is provided, shall respond TO the request
of any municipality in the United States
to personally conduct an investigation OF
conditions in that municipality for the
purpose of answering the actual cost Of
furnishing gas or electricity, railway
transportation, and water and telephone
service to its inha bitants.
The sum of s25O,00O is appropriated by
the bill for the purpose OF carrying the
scheme into effect. One-half Of this sum
is to be borne by the District and one
half by the Federal government.
An important section of the Doremus
bill, which was devised after conference
with the corporation counsel of the Dis
trict, provides that a system of universal
transfers shall be installed at once in
the District of Columbia. II is reasoned
that II is the primary duty of a utilities
commission to adjust that momentous
question and that, therefore, 1t should be
specifically cared for in bill devising
the commission itself.

A Continuation School System.

The report Of the National Associ.
alton for the Promotion of Industrial
Education, in reference to the continu-
alton school system, as practiced at
Munich. seems to contain a satisfactory
answer to two difficult questions in
connection with the public school sys-
tenn of this country. One of them is
why our boys leave school at the earliest
possible date the law allows. even in
cases where no pressure exists. The
other question is how to keep the boy,
after he has left school, from sinking
into the great mass of casual and un-
remunerative labor that crowds large
cities
German thoroughness is evident in the
complete system of trade schools built
up at Munich There are forty-six of
them, covering the entire field of indus
try and domestic labor, not even omit
ting the chimney sweep. Little progress
was made until the school authorities
succeeded in enlisting the cooperation
Of the employers. The latter are al
lowed to inspect the schools and to
make suggestions as to the curriculum
and hours of attendance, also to recon-
mend foremen and journeymen for in
structors. In return, they are expected
to supply the schools with models, tools,
and machinery. even fair amount of
raw material, but mainly to put pres
sure upon their apprentices to attend
the regular classes. AS rule, the
schools demand two afternoons each
week, from to 7 o'clock, or one morn
ing and one afternoon, or one continu-
Gus working day. 4
The enrolment in the Munich con-
tinuation- schools for the present year
shows about 5000 apprentices, with
10000 boys as yet unattached to any
trade. For the latter there are twelve
large continuation schools with a cur
riculum somewhat more general than
that Of the specialized trade schools.
Il is claimed for these trade schools

Representative Frank E. Doremus, of
Michigan, who formerly served as assist
ant corporation counsel of the city of
Detroit, has taken in hand a project Of
establishing a public utility commission
in the District of Columbia, whose du-
ties shall be not only the regulation and
control OF all public utilities in the Dis
trict, but shall extend in an advisory
capacity to all Of the large cities of the
Union which may desire its services.
In a carefully prepared bill of many
pages. introduced in the House yester-
day, Representative Doremus proposes a
Federal public utilities commission.
which shall consist of five members ap-
pointed by the President, each commits
sioner to receive a salary of $1,000 a
year. Each member of the commission
is to possess expert knowledge of at
least one of the subjects dealing with the
construction and operation of street rail-
ways, the production and distribution of
gas, the distribution of electricity for
light and power, the maintenance of

The Lincoln Highway.

1t is quite evident that the desire for
a highway to be named after Abraham
Lincoln is not to be allowed to die
away, even though the Fine Arts Com
mission and the Lincoln Memorial Com
mission have declared against it.
Not only is there feeling that per-
haps the low area of the Potomac Park
is unsuitable as the site for a great me-
mortal, especially with the Washington
Monument towering in the immediate
vicinity but there is also some express
sion against another stereotyped struc-
ture in the Capital City Not only in
Washington. but in every other capital,
there are characteristic monuments.
Generally these take the form of arches
or elaborate pedestals, fanked by i'm
possible statues and surmounted with an
efigy of the person to be honored. The
range of ideas for these memorial struc-
lures seems to be strangely limited
And so, with the knowledge that the
Lincoln Memorial will be in the same
category, there will be decided senti-
ment in favor of highway that will
have only one counterpart in the world
the Appian Way, in Rome. Gettysburg,
Richmond, and Mount Vernon are all
as terminal points. The for
mer would seem. of course, the most
but. after all, the fact re-
mains that it would meet the best judg-
ment of very large number OF people

constructed as TO link his name with
the very duration Of the earth.

New Method to End Strike.

Iowa has given the country a novel
idea how to end strikes in the success
ful action OF a Des Noines Judge,
which, if it should be sustained by the
higher tribunals, indicates a reasonable
method of settling labor troubles in
public service corporations. The street
railway company in that city dismissed
one of its conductors, and as a result
the employees, after a weeks futile effort
at arbitration, ordered a strike New
men were promptly engaged TO take the
places of those who went out. and rioting
followed. The city authorities, after
quelling the disturbance, sued out an
injunction against both the railway COM
pany and the union men. directing the
company to reinstate the conductor, and
the men to go to work pending the sub
mission Of the controversy to arbitra-
ton. The district judge issued the in
junction, the papers were served, the
dismissed conductor was reinstated tenn
porarily, and. forty hours after the be-
ginning of the tie-up, the cars were run
ming again.
No one will question the right of cor
poration to dispense with the services
of an e1nploye, if it deem such action
proper, but in the case Of street rail-
road the public is entitled to some con-
sideration. 1t has no interest in the
grievances which exist between the EN-
ployer and the employed, but it is Vi
tally concerned in being transported
safely and conveniently to its destina-
ton. Consequently the court has done
right in establishing truce until the
ccntending parties can agree upon a set
tlement, the public in the meantime
being in possession of the rights and
privileges to which it is entitled.

Building for July.

The apparent slump in building in
July as compared with June, according
to the figures of the District building
Inspector, should not be discouraging.
Although the value of buildings for
which permits were issued last month
is more than half a million dollars less
than that Of the structures commenced
in June. the record shows the very sat-
isfactory total of nearly a million and
a half. 1t must be remembered, too,
that in June the figures were swollen
by the permit for the large Riggs Build
ing at the corner of G and Fifteenth
streets. A building of that character
can hardly be expected to be started
every month in the year in city of the
size of Washington.
The building situation in the District
is in a healthy condition. Permits for
III brick dwellings, to cost S4o4SI2, and
for thirty-six frame dwellings, to cost
S9S35o, were issued. In two sections
of the city the July record shows de-
cided increase in buildings. In the
southeast about $4,000 worth of building
was started. as against $4,000 in June,
and in the southwest $4,000 worth, as
against S7,27o The last figures are
especially encouraging, as they show a
revival in the southwest section.
If the year should average on the
basis of the figures for july no one
would have any cause for complaint.
