MONTCLAIR SHOWS THE WAY.

EINING a man $40 for allowing mosquitoes to breed on his
Ii property is a logical and necessary exercise of sanitary
police power. The Montclair health authorities and re
corder are to be commended for this innovation, and they show
that they mean business. New Jersey is the only State in the
Union, as pointed out by DR.. Doty, former health officer of New
York, that has taken energetic measures to get rid of the pest,
and the general adoption of the energetic Montclair idea will
give our State higher distinction. DIR. Doty says that drainage
of marshes, use of oil on isolated pools and elimination of local
breeding places can and will eventually win the battle against
the mosquito. This has been proven not only in the Panama
canal zone, but as near us as South and Midland beaches, on
Staten Island. Science and energy, with an occasional dose of
the Montclair brand Of justice for obstructionists, will yet prevail
against the torment that has made New Jersey a byword and
retarded her growth in population and wealth.

ALL INTEREST At CHICAGO.

NS7 HICAGO will focus the national interest for more than
~ a week. Today the Republican national committee met
and tomorrow begins the hearings of the numerous del
egate contests. Nobody expects these contests to be decided
on their merits. The only question is how far the committee
majority, controlled by Taft, will go in throwing out Roosevelt
delegates and seating Taft delegates. What the committee
may do O not do by no means settles the presidential nomina
ton. That will be decided in the convention next week. "The
best laid schemes o. mice and men gang aft aglee" And the
very methods taken to pack a national convention may prove
The means of defeat.

Give Police Bnckshot Gums.

Give Police BuckshOt Guns.
To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
What is the matter with the police in
regard to the laborers' strike? Are they
supposed to stand up as targets for the
rocks, guns, ETC., of the strikers and not
be allowed to shoot to kill in self-de-
Tense? If / am not mistaken the police
are all supplied with Ss-calibre revoiyers.
Why are they not allowed to use them
with effect, when fighting with the strik-
ers instead of merely firing over their
heads with the purpose of soaring them
In the case of the High School lad who
was shot the police and the friends of
the lad nave good cause for a come
back.
The local police should be supplied with
the sh~ort-barreled riot guns, loaded with
b%uckshot. A few doses Of this medicine
would give the strikers something 70
think about. The striker who gets In
front of a charge from one of these guns
would likely have to spend the next
three or four days at home picking the
buekshot from various portions of his
anatomy. II. NJ. c.

THE HISTORY LESSON.

OF Lincoln and of Washington
/ told my little son,
Then asked what he thought Of them,
(which was the greatest one?'
81 think that Washington was best"
He quickly answered me,
"He had a little AK like mine
To chop the cherry tree"
l said, But Lincoln he was good
And he should be adored."
The y~oungster shook his head and cried,
HE didn't wear a sword"
but Lincoln was a lawyer, too,
And always stood for right"
HE may have been a lawyer, but
He never led a fight"
l urged and struggled with the lad
He only shook his head
At all l said in Lincoln's praise,
And then he calmly said:
st know that Washington was best,
He wore a soldier suit,
And when he saw an Englishman
He knew just how to shoot.
Nov Lincoln may have been some good
For he vas President,
But don't you think a general
Is most magnificent?
And then you see that Washington
Was Father of our Land,
And SO l got to owe him best
Why, don't you understand?
For shouldn't l love fathers best?
That's what we're told to do
So If l don't love Washington,
Then how could l love you?"
