A Fire Prevention Day.

The proclamation issued by the gov
ernor of Illinois, recommending the OBJ
servance Of October Q as Fire Preven-
ton Day, should command the atten-
ton OF the people of other States as
well. Much can be done by public
bodies in that direction. but it is need
less to say that the most telling work
can be accomplished far better by in
dlvidual action and carefulness.
That carelessness with fire is one of
our national vices has been shown bv
experts and statisticians, who claim
that more than one-haIf of our fires
are preventable. In the end fire losses
are borne by the people who support the
insurance companies. The effort of the
Chicago Association of Commerce 10
draw public attention to this important
matter is greatly to be commended all
over this country. Fire Prevention Dav
everywhere should be made to teach a
lesson greatly needed in our large cities.

Military Training in Schools.

From the Amy ard Navy Journal
Representing, as 1t is supposed to rep
resent, the best educational thought of
a city cursed with rowdyism, the action
of the board of education of New York
in protesting to the legislature at Albany
against the introduction of compulsory
lnilitary training in the public schools, is
one of the most disheartening exhibitions
of futuous blindness we have seen in
many years. If there is one thing that
the youth of New York need to kill the
rowdy spirit 1t is military training. There
is nothing more opposed to the rowdy
spirit than the soldier spirit The SOL
dier is the product of discipline and re-
straint; the rowdy is the product of
license and unrestrained lawlessness. One
is the antithesis of the other. New York
has within her grasp means to end
rowdyism, but with a stupidity that can
be attributed only to her colossal ignor-
anc, of her own shortcomings she re-
fuses to make use of it,

Lady Dorothy ErOwne. who with con-

as the hereditary owner uf the Iak.s

FINANCIAL STRATEGY.
RuSe by which Husband Prevented
Purchase of 500 Rug.

From the New York Mail.
Strategy can sometimes he made as
effective in domestic economy as in the
operations OF war. BY way of illustra-
tion. consider an instance that recently
arose in Colorado. An ambitious young
housewife out there had an opportunity
to buy at a great bargain handsome
rug which she needed. The price was
only 500, hut the owner declared that
the rug was actually worth 500. The
young wOman's husband gently protested
that even 500 was more than persons of
their income could afford for a Single
article of household furnishing but after
much persuasion he consented to the pur
chase. as most husbands do in such cases.
But this particular husband played
a strategic game. When he gave his
wife the money TO pay for the rug it
was not in currency notes of large de-
nomination. hut in the form of 200 round.
sound silver dollars. The young woman
was a~tounded. Until the money was
counted down, dollar by dollar, she never
had realized that it would take so many
to pay for that rug She decided to buy a
s65 rug, but declared that if the money
had been given to her in two notes of
500 each she would have bought the
COstlier one without hesitation.

National Mileage Grab.

From the Ohio State Journal.
A Congressman is paid 20 cents a mile
out of the public treasury every time he
makes a trip to or from Washington to
attend to his business. and yet the trip
costs him only cents mile Why is
this shameful grab at the Treasury
made? 1t is simply following an old
custom that started many years ago.
when 1t might have cost 20 cents mile
to go to and from Washington. There
was reason for it then, but there Is no
reason for it now, and so there is II
cents a mile that is in the nature of
graft. OF course, there is law for 1t,
but I at doesn't make the grab moral.
One can graft by law as well as by
grand larceny. This is one of the cases.
Why a Congressman who gets $500 a
year would want to charge the people 20
cents for what he pays cents for is not
the real question, but why the people
should let him. If it is not dishonest,
it is unjust. All such things weaken the
integrity of the public service

Pensions for Aged Clerks.

The retirement of aged employees of
the classified service on pension is a
business proposition to save money for
the government. Retirement. of course,
is due those who have faithfully served
their country in a civil capacity through
a lifetime, but it is seldom urged from
a business standpoint. Postmaster Gen.
eral Hitchcock and Acting Postmaster
L. J. Robinson have recently brought
this side of the problem clearly into
view
Offices are cncumbeFed with employees
who are no longer of service, they say
This is true A business concern would
not hesitate before this sort of prob
lem If the cmpIoye had grown old in
the service, he would be retired Just as
soon as his usefulness was found to
have passed In the classified service
OF the United States. with few excep-
tions, he is kept on full salary or re-
duced salary after that period has been
reached.
The aged employe has earned a pen
sion. just as much as the retired officers
of the army and navy, and just as
much as those who are pensioned
by the great industrial corporations,
whether he has contributed from his
earnings or not to a pension fund
His retirement would also be actu-
ally profitable to the government
through the substitution of active work
crs The advocates of retirement can
not too strongly urge this consideration.

PatrOnize Washington Merchants.

Why should the people of Washing
ton be asked to send TO New York or
any other place to purchase furniture or
anything else when the stores in this
city are well stocked with better goods
at lower prices:
1t IS an imposition upon the merchants
OF this city. whose money is invested
here and who are generous contributors
to the City's welfare, when opportunity
is given to unknown concerns elsewhere
to offer their products to THIS commu-
nifty. 1t would be different if the local
dealers were not well equipped, if their
merchandise was not complete in its
variety and admirable in its quality, as
well as reasonable in price. As mat
ter of fact, their establishments are
kept up to date in every respect

Stolypin's Death.

Ever since the beginning of history
it has been demonstrated that assassina-
ton does not abolish a hated system.
This has been cxcmplried again in the
fatal shooting of the Russian Premier
Stolypin The dead minister was the
pcrsonifcation OF everything tyrannical,
but, unfortunately. his death will not
improve the condition of the poor,
downtroddcn masses OF benighted Rus
sil. On the contrary, It will invite a
continuance OF the abuses which the
bullet OF the assassin tried TO end. 1t
will delay. rather than hasten, Russia's
political development.
Since terrorism began in Russia in
the past generation with the killing of
Gar Alexander. StoIypin has been the
only man equal to the tyrannical de-
mands OF that vast empire. Ruthless,
mcrcIlcss, sometimes even wholly wrong
he has angcred by his policy especially
the middle Glasses and professional men
The rigor with which he suppressed
disorder once before resulted in the ex-
plosIon OF a bomb in his own dwelling
from which he marvelOusly escaped. He
has maintained order in Russia, but at
tremendous cost. Since, in the opinion
of the pan-SlavistS, Russia could get
along only by the use OF the knout, Sto-
lypin was the man par excellence for the
place he filled. 1t is to be hoped, how
ever, that the eyes of the Gar may be
opened, and that he may return to the
more liberal regime of Whites day
This is the one chance Nicholas has to
erect for himself a lasting monument
as ruler who tried to better the con-
dition of his subjects, not by tyranny,
as he is made to believe is the only
way, but by liberality in governing them.
Stolypin, viewed from the standpoint
of the demands of his country as he
was trained TO sec them, was not wholly
bad. He put Russian finances on a
sound basis. He actually tried, in his
own way, 10 rcorganizc the land sys-
tenn and benefit the poor mujik. He
tried TO reform municipal governments
and to abolish graft. He did even more.
His bold resignation last spring proved
that a strong premier could not be re-
placed by court intrigue. and the re-
markable manner in which he recently
carried ont the will Of +he DOur1a over
the hidebound council of the empire
demonstrated that a parliamentary sys-
TEN is possible in Russia, But for him
the Douma would to-day be thing of
the past, Stolypin, unframed to any
thing but tyranny, hoped by the applica-
tion of rigor to bring about ameliora-
ton. He paid with his life the penalty
of his mistake.

Honest Business Not in Danger.

President Taft's Detroit. speech has
reassured the commercial interests.
Honest business, he says, is not in dan
ger
This is as it should be. No one wants
to disturb conditions which are legiti-
mate and legal. Combinations that are
not in restraint of trade to the extent
that they are opposed TO public policy
have nothing to fear. 1t is the monopO-
lies which are nanifcstly criminal that
are to feel the heavy hand Of the law.
To compel every trade combination to
dissolve, irrespective Of its extent or pur-
pose, would be to disrupt the business
of the country. 1t would mean, as the
President truthfulIy says, a cataclysm OF
ruin.
