UNFINISHED BUSINESS.

TT is easier to raise a new demand in politics than to right an old
wrong. There are "stycs' in issues as there are in dress. just
= now people are interested, or think they are, in the initiative,
referendum and recall. Is IT impairment to remind them that there
is unfinished business before thernI Why not get something done,
even if it is not novel, experimental or dcfanty radical, even II it
would be merely doing what other countries have done already?
One item Of unfinished business is the creation of a parcels post
1ts necessity was shown-for the hundredth timc-to everybody who
received or sent a Christmas present of any bulk by express or
through the mails, whether it was a turkey, for carrying which the
express company charged more than half the cost of the bird, or the
fishing pond which a World reader bought for ten cents and which
the postoficc charged him thirty cents for carrying.
A second item Of unfinished business is n national cold storage
law. The need Of this is again driven home by the top prices scored
for butter and eggs. 1t is set forth in the recent report Of the Sec
rotary Of Agriculture.
Employers liability, "workmcns compensation" is a national
and State need affirmed in every mine explosion, railroad accident
and factory fire. 1t is urged in the Presidents message. The
American people mus, Sc to it that the burden of industry's UNI
avoidable killings and maimings shall be borne by the employer and
passed on to society in increased charges for his product rather than
borne to their undoing by worker and family.
/. is better to get a little done than a great deal merely talked
about-and these things are not little.

THE inns OF SOCIETY.

THERE is much in the claim that people ought not always to
DO held responsible for what pass for their msdeeds. 1t
10 society's fault. The McNamaras, for example. were car
ricd away by tho enthusiasm of a "class war" as one of them put
il. They were victims Of existing conditions according to u labor
committee. Why punish the individual because society has warped
him in person, or by proxy Of his ancestorsI
Take the street beggar-ake the maj who called the Mayor
Little Whiskers" and asked aims Of him the other day. Society
may never have compelled this Migrants parents to send him to
school and so he never learned habits of industry. Or in some pre-
vious incsrnatons he may have done Mr.. Gaynor a good turn
which 1t was the htters duty to requite. Or he may be the descend
ant Of q robber baron with an inherited claim to take toll on the
highway.
The same set OF paniations may be urged for tho men Of the
Black Hand. Society bred them, for it ordained that in the sweat Of
his brow man should eat bread, and they are too strong to work.
II they could live honestly without effort, doubtless they would.
Let people who ride on ~" trains Sunday nights and suffer in
digniies at the hands Of what they call "hoodlums" ponder heredity
and environment and their judgments will be genuer. The lads who
race shouting through the cars, tramping on peoples toes, buleting
men with baseball gloves and embracing women are the product Of
marriages before eugenics became . pink tea science and may never
have had gOvernesses.
{. To cite the desk motto Of a trust magnate, "Thcre is so much
good in the worst Of US and SO much bad in the best Of U.S. that
we ought not to judge each other. Blame it on society-whch is
always the guilty party il for no other reason than that a generation
OF % ago it neglected to wiring various necks which needed it, and
that it toleratcs % much mush-headed sentimentaity now.

= herent to conventional IDEAS; an ignorant and rro minded
person. especially one given TO money making; one devoid Of culture"
Matthew Arnold, who waged lifelong war against him, uses this Ian
guage: son the side Of beauty and taste, vulgsrity; on the side Of
morals and feeling, coarseness; on the side Of mind and spirit, unin-
tellgenoe-this is Philistinism"
Yet the type has its virtues, and Arnold is just enough to recog-
