Mothers' Day.

Millions OF white carnations will be
worn tomorrow in memory Of millions
of mothers-every one OF them a fond
mother. Tomorrow is Mothers day, and
its observance has spread until it has
become general throughout the United
States and Canada. and Is coming to be
observed In Europe, Australia and among
European and American residents in
Africa, the Philippines and the West
Indies. Tho suggestion leading up to the
institution Of Mothers day came from a
lady in Philadelphia three years ago.
The quick recognition Of the sentiment
Of the day proves the power of a good
thought. The governors Of states, kings
and emperors have seconded the idea, and
In numerous instances have issued proc
lamations urging the setting apart Of the
day for the wearing Of a white carna-
ton In loving memory of mother.
Tomorrow in furtherance Of this insti-
tuition many Of the great hotels in the
United States will distribute q white
carnation to each guest and a large num-
Der Of railroad companies will give this
flower to each Of their dining car patrons.
Every normal man and woman holds
the memory Of mother sacred, and the
wearing of an outward symbol Of this
thought is gentle tribute of love.

Glauders.

Chambers in man is fortunately extreme
ly rare. The case Of the man now con-
fined at the District quarantine station
and whose disease has been diagnosed as
glandere il the second case of this kind
recorded in the medical annals of the
District. In a late report Of the health
officer Of the District Of Columbia it is
set down that March 81, 1909, a white
man. nineteen years old. was reported to
tho health department as suffering from
glanders. He said that he had been en-
ployed in q sales stable In this city. The
patient had been taken sick March
20; he applied at one Of the local hos
pitfalls, where the case was diagnosed as
glande<s, and the health department noti-
fed. The patient was committed to the
quarantine station. and after an illness
which closely approached fatal termi-
nation was discharged as cured April
o. 1909. This was the first instance Of
CHAMBERS In y human being reported in
the District. The possibility Of men be-
Ing infected with this dread horse disease
gives point to the recent recommendation
Of the District inspector of live stock and
dairy farms that the District should have
power Of supervision, now lacking, over
the horse markets of the city.

Mr.. Newlands' Call to Business.

: Senator Newlands submits an ambitious
program. He would have this Congress
,earn its salt at both the extra session
and the first regular session.. He con-
siders that there Is much to be done, and
: that the country expects, and has a
right to expect, prompt action on ques-
lions Of great moment to 1t. He will
address the Senate on the subject Mon
day. and his observations are certain of
attention.
Note the great difference between what
Mr.. Newlands thinks should be done at
the extra session and what popular pre-
diction promises. The Nevada senator
enumerates nine matters which Congress
should dispose Of before putting I'D the
shutters. Popular prediction mentions
but one-Canadian reciprocity. Nine men
out Of ten will tell you that, after a
little stage play, intended for the CALLER

transferred to the regular session, which

ton Of a single one of the items which

The warm season of 1912 may open as
early and strenuously as the warm sea-
son OF this year has. And, besides, added
to warm weather next year will be the
warmest sort Of politics. Congress will
not want to sit late on any account. The
national conventions will be taking up
attention, and both parties occupied with
maneuverings about presidential tickets
and platforms.
We shall see an extraordinary situation

achievement at the close Of the first reg

as a rejection of the Payne tariff law
and the discussions and promises that
have followed, it Is demonstrated that
lawmaking is practically at a standstill.
owing to divisions in Congress affecting
both parties, the appeal to the country
will be both peculiar and complicated
Each party will attempt to fix the re-
sponsibility upon the other, but spell
binders will have job shaping their ar
guments to fit the case.
Mr.. Newlands' call to business may not
be needed. Several of his propositions
are practically new, and all of them bear
with Importance on party politics as on

valuable lessons, and at the same time
grip their interest. Kansas City under
took to give its people free musical enter
tainment in winter, and provided Sunday
concerts in it's big convention hall. en-
ploying a band, q large chorus and So
loists.
The open-air band concerts in summer
have proved so attractive In drawing
crowds and in diverting so many people
from less wholesome amusements that
enlightened cities see good In continuing
free music throughout the year.
Washington is favored all summer with
a wealth of the best music by excellent
bands. There is so much of this good
music that one fears the very plenitude
of 1t has taken the edge of the appre-
citation of some Neutrality-suspicious.. A Gus
tom has grown up here of considering
these music, treats as promenade con-
certs, where a large element of the at
tendance keeps on the move, and lets con-
versation go unrestrained. This is an
noying to the people who would listen to
the music, and in some way the practice
should be repressed. People who want
to stroll and converse, laugh and chat.
might seek one of the parks where no
concert is in progress.
In some cities, as. for instance, in Gold
en- Gate Park, San Francisco, and in
Patterson Park, Baltimore. benches are
provided for vast audience, and ex-
cellent order is maintained In Wash
ington's parks there are no seating ia
cilities worth mentioning, and the ex-
pertinent Of providing light. portable
benches might be worthy of trial. DAM
age to the grass might be urged against
such a plan. but surely if the proper au-
thorities would think about the problem
solution would be found which would
obviate the unpleasant features Of the
Washington park concerts, and put a ban
on that conduct which detracts from the
full enjoyment of the music.

Sane Fourth.

Baltimore is promoting safe and sane
celebration Of the Fourth. The plan was
experimental with last year, and the re-
suits were so harmless and general salts
faction SO complete that all ground has
been cut from under the advocates of a
gunpowder Fourth. The observance OF
the orderly Fourth in Baltimore last year
took the form Of neighborhood meetings
with programs tending to improve and
uplift the patriotic spirit This season
Baltimore is discussing pageantry. The
proposition which comes from the Balti-
more press and Is approved by the munich
pal authorities looks to a history pageant
-one that will depict historic events in
the life Of the United States, of Mary
land and Of the city Of Baltimore. The
mayor has said: "a pageant impressing
history on the community is timely
idea. It will be q teacher for the chill
dren. for our foreign-born residents. and
perhaps for some OF the older persons
who may have forgotten many notable
events. 1t would be a concentration of
the same efforts which were more scat
tered last year.
The orderly and appropriate instead of
the riotous celebration of the national
birthday Is gaining Roadway throughout
the land. The Commissioners Of the Dis
trict OF Columbia established a safe and
sane celebration of the Fourth about
two years ago. The private sale or use
Of fireworks or other explosives was pro-
hfbited, and through the cooperation OF
the Washington Board Of Trade, the
Chamber Of Commerce and citizens gen.
orally, day and night spectacles were
provided. There was a marked reduction
In the number Of casualties. The Fourth
OF July preceding the first sane Fourth
produced 104 hospital cases. Following
the first sane Fourth no victims were
taken to q hospital. No fires were caused
by firecrackers or the reckless use OF
fireworks, and there was a reduction in
the number of arrests. Washington was
among the first Of the cities to insist on
a sane and patriotic celebration of the
day. and the example thus set has been
followed by number of cities and
promises to be followed by all.

Next Year Farmers Year.

The farmer next year Will be the belle
Of the occasion, If that word may be
properly used to describe a person with
whiskers. Both sides are going to make
up to him. Sweet words will be poured
into his ears. Many promises will be
made him. Goblin will appear at his very
best. Short will attempt to break the
record for persuasion and assurances. The
worthy man who speeds the pillow is sched-
uled for the time of his life. To which
side will he give his hand at the polls?
This will not be his first experience as
; a favorite. He had always been popu-
lar. At the time of our governmental
start, and for years after, he was nearly
the whole thing. The manufacturer came
later. But for long time the tiller of
the soil held the center Of the field, and
. there developed for his benefit not only
much legislation, but what may be called
q line of talk designed expressly for his
ears.
This talk has become fixture in our
campaigning. There are spellbinders who
know no other language in campaign
years. Students of the farmers needs
: and desires, familiar with his personal
tastes, and educated. so to say, by cater
, ing to his humors, they would be lost
if assigned to campaign service in any
other than an agricultural section. In
town, or in manufacturing locality, they
5 would be 80 completely out Of their ele-
ment as not to be able to earn their salt
At the hearing before the Senate finance
committee Thursday there was straw
showing how the wind is blowing Some
protestors against the Canadian reci-
procity pact were giving their views, and
among the number was the editor of an
agricultural paper published in the north
west. He said he had always been a re-
publican, but did not know which way
to turn now.
I'VE will comfort you" replied Mr..
! Bailey. speaking for the democracy.
But this came back: I'VE have learned
in times past to fear the Greeks bearing
gifts." Which showed that the editor was
no farmer
Hence the question: Which way Will the
farmer turn IL reciprocity goes through?
WIN he turn from the President, who
negotiated the pact, to the democracy,
which is supporting 1t? The situation
from his point OF view will call for rene
dial action. and not revenge. Could he
hope for a repeal OF the pact by voting
next year to put the democracy into full
possession OF the government?
The contention Of the supporters of the
pact republicans and democrats alike, is
that It will not injure but benefit the
American farhfer. the American manu-
factuFer. and everybody; that it is
framed for promoting q larger trade be-
tween Canada and America upon terms
mutually and generally advantageous.
ana that II put into operation it viii not
only justify itself, but become a fixture
IN our tariff policy. The proof of the
pudding Is In the eating. and all the
President asks Is that the farmer sample
the dish he has set before him, and which.
he believes. Is good enough for a king.
