THE STEEL TRUST INDICTMENTS.

oa HE steel trust indictments by the Federal grand jury in New
York are the most sensational move yet made by the govern
ment in the enforcement of the Sherman antitrust law.
This great combination of steel and iron and other interests was
supposed to be immune. Its promoter and organizer had peen
signally favored and honored at Washington, the corporation made
public its annual statements and its president had appeared before
a congressional committee and spoken with singular candor, De
claring that his corporation had no objection to government regu-
laion. If ever there was a good trust this was one. And thlnk
how it has been benefting the whole nation! 1t is true that there
is a tariff on steel manufactures, but Notwithstanding the fact that
foreign manufacturers could make cheaper steel the trust just
invaded their home markets with its products and sold millions OF
tons there. 1t might be argued that if the steel trust could 90
that there was no Justification for a tariff tax on foreign steel.
That's the view the ordinary man would take. But Mr.. Aldrlch
satisfactorily explained the paradox in the last Congress and III
tax remained in the law. The recent decisions of the United States
Supreme Court defined what a good or bad trust is, and Will that
definition everybody felt enlightened. The criminal law could not
possibly reach out for the steel trust, which had all these elements
of goodness and, besides, could show a miscellaneous lot of "inde-
pendent" companies that were competing with 1t III the marker.
But the blow has fallen. Numerous individuals represented in the
management of the trust and it's various subsidiaries are indicted,
and although the beef trust magnates, after two years prosecution,
had not yet come to trial, while other trust prosecutions are in
different initial stages, we may yet see the outcome of their prose
cuHon in our generation.

over, and there. would still be hundreds
of persons applying for them? So, II
the, readers were allowed to have the
book free of charge they would seldom

One hundred copies of one book is
a great. deal, but still the situation
would not be relieved and there would
be many people who would not get a
chance at the book until twas more
than a year old. And after the book
had grown old, where are the library
authorities going to file 100 copies OF
every "once-popular hook?" There
would instantly be a howl abou the
extravaganza.
No, "Inquisitive,'' I think o are

alton by librarians. Let us hear from

Campaign Meetings UntimeIy.

To the Editor of the Evening star:
It seems to me like veritable mid
summer madness to have campaign
meetings at this time of the year. This
Is one of the things that the so-called
progressives on the Republican side of
the political house started. and I am
sorry to say that the Democrats, also
so-called progressives, are doing the
same thing. =
For last nights dinner of the Wood
row Wilson League was nothing more
or less than a campaign meeting. 1t
was that in all It's glory. hot speeches
from politicians and would-b be politi-
clans and men who went to the Krue-
ger Auditorium merely to advertise
themselves. They wanted to be seen
because they were afraid they would
get lost in the shuttle.
An old-time politician told me once
that when would-be candidates make
themselves too conspicuous early in
the season they are apt to fade out OF
sight before the real battle of the bal
lots is on. And l think he is right.

Thentre Safeguards.

the Editor of the Evening Star:
l was sitting in the balcony of a
local theatre the other day. when l
noticed that during the intermissfon
between each act, when persons were
passing up and down the stairs, the
seats shook ~perceptibly, and the shak-
ing was particularly noticeable at the
end of the performance.
1t is proverbial that the authorities
usually let a dangerous condition exist
until it results in a catastrophe, and
then Investigations are made, and the
tickle public forgets 1t before anything
Is accomplished. ~ .ga-
Now, why can't we just imagine that
the balcony of this theatre has caved
In and thrown hundreds of people into
the orchestra circle, causing death and
injury to those above and below. Then
we can demand an investigations, and
perhaps the management will see to 1t
that adequate supports are placed
where they will insure safety.

nefends Nutlex HoteIs.

DeTeD0A NuAtC GOt'ts
To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
In your issue of last night l read an
article from a Nutley resident who ap-
parently was greatly opposed to the
granting of licenses to W. of its hotel
keepers. What the real object of OPP
position was could not be learned from
the way the communication was writ
ten. However, !, too. am a resident OF
Nutley and wish to state that In my
opinion Council acted right in grant
ing the licenses
I live near the two hotels and have
been a resident of this township all
my life. In all that time have never
seer or heard of anything detrimental
to the hotels. Then, too, there was no
opposition In granting licenses to two
wholesalers who do twice as much
business as the two hotelkeepers. It's
a pity that the residents wish to de-
prive men of earning an honest living
I have watched the wagons of the
wholesalers laden with large quanti-
ties of liquors go through the streets
of Nutley! Thee people who oppose the
granting of licenses do business with
these grocers. The whole affair is
merely a play for notoriety.
II reference to the Rev. Condit I
wish to say that I do not find fault
with him. because as a minister he Is
justified in trying to ~disprove of the
sales. of liquor. Let the outsiders who
drink on the sly keep their hands clean

Penny-a-pay Lhrnrr nook..

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The pennyla-day book at the Public
Library seems to have started an in
teresting controversy among your corr
respondents. The last letter l saw
was from 'Inquisitive,' who wanted to
know the income derived by the IL
brary from renting books at one cent
a day. He also declared there ought
to be enough of the popular books pur-
chased so that everybody could read
them before the books got too old.
I would like to tell "Inquisitive" that
he is wrong in his contention, for the
one-cent-a-day. system appears to be
the only practical method for giving all
a chance to read the new books. Sup
pose, "Inquisitive." that the library ad-
thorities bought up 100 Of this new
book which reRders are nghting for.

To the Editor of the Evening Star: =
would like to ask through your
paper why it is that one OF our greatest
evils is rarely criticised by the news

Hn OBOKEN and New Brunswick, by their decisive majorities
against commission government as prescribed by the Walsh
- law, have put a damper on Walsh law movements in other
cities. In Jersey City petitions are being circulated, by those who
are not in favor of the law for the sake of having an early election
on the question and getting it out of the way of the primaries and
elections in the fall, as there had been a purpose to favor a special
election in September on the eve of the political primaries, q most
inopportune time for such an election. The Walsh law has had
more booming in Jersey City than in any other municipality, and its
chances fos adoption should be good if the claims of its supporters
have any foundation. Therefore t. is well to have the test made. If
Jersey CITY adopts the Walsh law the odds will be even, two cities
for and two cities against. If Jersey City rejects the Walsh law
Trenton alone will have the experiment to make

Ro.ev,rie wants Clean streets.

To the Editor of the Evening Star.
Just a line about an evil which l
think can be easily 'remedied. For the
past. three months the streets in the
Roseville section of the city have not
been cleaned regularly. I have been a
resident in that. section forever twen-
ty-hve years, and never before have l
had occasion to complain. l think the
is due more to a misunder-
standing than to negligence. Roseville
has always been known as one of the
greatest residential sections in the
State, and in order to live up to that
reputation we must keep our streets
clean. ROSEVlLLE.

FARMER USES AMERICAN
FLAGS TO SCARE CROWS.

NEW YORK, June 30.-The display
of a lot of American flags and one
Cuban flag in a field Of corn at Blue
Point, L. l., for the apparent pur-
pose of frightening away crows is
causing much Indignation among the
residents of that place. They say that
j. r. Warner, owner of the field of
corn, is showing d~isrespect to the colors
by using them as scarecrows. The
flags surround a regulation scarecrow.
Warner say he means no disrespect to
the United States flag. He says that
If the flag scares off crows, which he
thinks are the country's enemies. 1t is
doing as well as it has done on the
field of battle.

ORANGE WI THE SEWER CONTRACT.

1Ta He city of Orange has no tenable reason for remaining out of
the trunk sewer compact, and there is every reason why the
city should enter it without further delay. The benefits of
the sewer will largely be for all the Oranges. 1t is not now a ques-
ton whether the Passaic shall be cleanse of its sewage filth,
for it is bound to be. The only point is how this shall
be done. the Passaic Sewerage Commission, with the knowl-
edge Obtained by years of study and planning, points the way,
Fog the municipalities of the Passaic valley it is the only way,
unless they shall dispose of their sewage within their own boun-
daries. a method that would be recklessly wasteful of property
values and would inevitably be discarded in the future. Orange
should be the next municipality to sign the contract.

Mr.. TAFT EXPLAINS.

tn RESIDENT TAFT saw the necessity for an immediate expa-
S nation to the public of the facts testified to in the Lorimer
investigation by Edward Hines, of the lumber trust, yester-
day. Mr.. Hines in his testimony declared that former Senator
Aldrich and the President were responsible for the election of
Lorimer. and that he was their selection and that their wishes were
conveyed through him. Hines is charged with the collection of a
100000 fund for Lorimer's election by the Illinois Legislature.
President Taft, in the authorized statement given out last night,
says that he had not urged the election of Lorimer and had ex
pressed no anxiety for it What he wanted was the election of
two Republican senators from Illinois. The Presidents word will
not be questioned. A statement by Mr.. Aldrieh would now seem
to be in order.

THE PHYSICAL TRAINING OF OUR YOUTH

II N our public and private schools and institutions for youth,
and in other ways, we are gradually adopting a system of
physical training that is of a semimilitary character. The
athletic leagues in the public schools are admirable. In numerous
private schools and many public schools there are military exer-
cises. Cadet organizations exist under the patronage of churches.
The Boy Scouts number thousands and will soon increase to hun
dreds of thousands A nation of nearly a hundred million, with
a regular army not big enough to police the country, and with a
small organized militia, should see to it that the rising generation
of boys shall grow up to be fit defenders of their country in the
event of war. And boys who are thus trained become manly, self
reliant and vigorous men, just the kind that are needed in time of
war or peace.

Thomas B.. Booth. a local stock
broker, who was recently married
caused his wife several hours of worry
last week, much against his W will.
Mr.. Booth, who is a member of the
grand jury, was out on a murder case
all night, without N means of letting
his wife know. After a sleepless night
she was glad to welcome him home,
even though she thought he was ar
rested, because he had to be accompa-
MED home by a constable.
