THE COAL DECISION.

A finding of progress is that by the United States supreme court concern ing the suit against the coal roads by the government and known as the hard coal trust. Even though it Is only a partial victory for the government in the opinion of Attorney General Wick ersham ''the abrogation of the illegal contracts will make material for com- petition in the coal trade" This is made possible by the annulment of the e5 per cent. contracts and there are opportunities by reason of the. de- cision whereby the government can carry the matter further. By the de- eision the contracts of the so-called trust and the independents are de- clared illegal but what good that will be to the consumer is a problem which 1t will take time to solve.
 How 1t is going to reduce the price of coal is what is interesting the con- sumer. The independents are the ones which have been demanding premiums for their coal. Now that their con- tracts under the 65 per cent agree ment are off it will mean larger quan- titles for them to dispose of and should they hold that for the additional pre- mium 1t means no help for the con- sumer. If they want to meet the de- mand and get the trade by undersell- ing 1t will work to the advantage of the man who pays the final price, but such has not been indicated by any action. as their attitude to the pub He. It is doubtful if the inclination to reduce will be stimulated except by the piling up of the supply and by entering into a cutrate competition. However every move that will bring this nearer is to be welcomed.

NEEDS OF SCHOOL SYSTEMS.

Tests which have been made in mathematics upon high and grammar school pupils in the city of New York show surprising results and yet give to those institutions the very best warning of what the school system needs and is lacking. The report of Prof. Elan of Columbia is that seven were found in 190 high school pupils who could not add one and one, nine could not multiply one by one and when it came to multiplying I by i there were 107 who failed and 127 who could not divide the same decimals, This astonishing situation was also found to exist in the elementary schools and emphasizes the fact in the strongest manner possible that arithmetic is in those schools being sadly neglected. It is a condition which would hardly be believed with out the figures and the authorities to back it up.
 The product of the schools today get a different training than in the days when emphasis was placed espe- cially upon the three R's and with such progress as has been made in education it is a poor showing to have such disclosures made. It is best, however, that they should be made in the school rather than when the pupils attempt to get positions on their qualifications. Surely something is wrong, either with the method or the pupils in the teaching of arithmetic, one of the important elementary branches of education. It is a regret table fact that so many graduates of high schools today show a lack of efficiency not only in arithmetic but in spelling and writing, and to the latter two but little attention seems to be paid.

CANAL TOLLS AND EXPENSES.

Great Britain in it's protest against the Panama canal act seems to be act uated by the impression that the for eign vessels passing through the canal are to be depended upon for the sup port thereof and that the remission of tolls on American shipping is taking part of the burden which rightfully belongs upon American shipping therefrom and imposing it upon other countries. Great Britain realizes that this country has the power to vote any subsidy which 1t may desire to its steamship lines for the promotion of greater business in that direction and whether such a subsidy is paid by returning the tolls or by not collect ing them makes absolutely no differ ence. Whichever is done it is im- possible for any but American ships to engage in that trade for. which, under the present act no tolls are to be charged for the use of the canal.
 What seems to be necessary is to clear up the minds of the British em- pire and other countries which are siding with her in the opposition to the operation of the canal as planned. The rates which have been fixed ara by no means permanent and they are not established on the basis of meet ing the expense of the operation of the canal or the placing of it on a profit making basis. Therefore the foreign vessels are not providing the support for the canal inasmuch as there will be a large expenditure for years by this country for the maintenance and operation of the interoceanic water way, in addition to what is received as tolls. They may be supplying the wis ible revenue, but that will not equal the expenditure and interest accounts.

AMBASSADOR ro ENGLAND.

Ordinarily the filling of any vacancy in the diplomatic corps where such an important post as the ambassador ship to England is concerned would takesplaee as soon as could be respect fully done, and such would be done now by President Taft if the time for which such appointee would serve made it worth while. It is understood that the holders of such important posts will resign at the end of an-ad- ministration and such being the case whoever was named by the president would have barely two months to serve before another would be taking up the duties. This is one of the most irn- portant diplomatic posts, the service at the court of St. James being one of great honor and responsibility, and 1t is but natural that each administra- tion should desire its own represer- tatives for the full and sympathetic expression of it's policies.
 Ambassador Reid by his magnificent conduct of the office has matters so well in hand and through his person. ality has cemented the relationship of the two countries that all matters can be dealt with from this side un- til his successor takes office. Pres ident- elect Wilson has plans for the ambassadorship of course and until his appointment is made and confirmed the vacancy will exist as tribute to the deceased ambassador. Naturally on first thought it was surprising that such an important place should not be filled but under the existing condi- tiOns the decision seems a wise one.

eiLLPosrINe ORDINANCES,

Every city has it's wrestle with the question of bill posting, where the re- strictions shall be placed and how far the business will be restricted for tho interests of the general appearance of the streets. This reform is being pro- noted in Omaha at the present time and of 1t the Omaha Bee has this to say:
 'The determination of the city coun- ell to enact a new billposter ordinance comes not a day too soon. The pro- posed measure is designed to abolish "unsightly'' posters, which marks it ss a very ambitious measure and leaves room for the exercise of some rare discrimination as to just what constitutes unsightliness. The law is not presumed to put all billboards out of business, but whatever it does or leaves undone, 1t should rid the down town business streets of lot of rub hish that has no right there and make it unlawful for this section to be turned to such purposes. It should pro- hfbit the displaying of signs and pie lures on buildings in process of con atruetion or the inclosures temporar- fly built about them along the prin- eipa thoroughfares. Abuses of this kind have reached the limit of late but not without some compensation if they have helped to inspire the coun- oil to action"
 The abuses which have stirred this western city are common everywhere until the action to prevent them is Gel s1 plenty of opportunity lies for improve ment. Bill posting should be kept with in it's proper channels, while the plan of keeping empty store windows filled with old and out of date posters is another practice which should be dis couraged.

DARK DEEDS

The animal was a polecat, a beast looking very much like a very large, very dark ferret, which, in fact, it is, being the wild ancestor of the domes- ticated ferret It was or he was, to. be correct-very low and long, with a bushy tail and a flat, cruel head, and such absurdly short, though strong legs, that when he ran he had to gal lop and arch his back He was a very bloodthirsty member of the wild, ana very pIucky, and it almost seemed as If nature had made up her mind that he could not be mistaken for any other and more gentle creature, because he carried about with him an odor which was simply awful--the sort of smell that you don'tforget. And that was why he had been given the name of the foul mart.
 The poleeat passed on down hill. Most of the wild hunters are very active, but the polecat is untiring, persevering, dogged rather than active. l suppose this is why he missed his final rush at a hare an hour later, after fine stall| and also his spring at a beautiful lyre- tailed black-cock roasting on low bough half an hour later than that.
 Finally he came upon stream. lie had, indeed, left the moQrs above him and came to a muddy pool, where he waited, standing in the shalloWs and shade out of the moonlight
 He had not been there long. keeping quite motionless the while, before noises began to be heard They re- sembled the sound made by walking stick being polIed into the mud and xryit11 q in Inc COJInn made by cells poking their heads into the mud lround the edge of the pool after worms, in actual fact.
 Slowly they came nearer. You could see the water bubble where the snaky heads glided. The polecat did not move. He waited with eyes growing red-as is the custom of his tribe when they grow angry or excited-and sud- denly he bounced.
 Now the polecat had meant to bounce en an eel, but even as his feet cleared the surface of the water 9 sound on the bank above caught his quick ears It was the loud snap of twig. h. stantly, and actually in midleap, the polecat twisted himself in the air, and landing on the bank sideways instead of on. the eel forward, as he had first intended to do, darted into the shad- ows. Ct
 At the same instant there was a spurt of flame among the trees close by and a thunderous report and a charge of No. shot churned the wa ter up into foam just exactly at the spot where the polecat had been mo- ment OF less than a moment, before.
 Then a mans figure came out in the moonlight, stared for a minute or two hard at the water and passed on. It was the water bailiff, who thought he had fired at an otter.
 As for the polecat, he raced off along

a ledge, and did not stop until he was [ seven hundred yards away. Then he stopped very suddenly because the | dimly discernible form ot rabbit, racing in from the field without, had i bounced clean into him.. knocking him and itself kicking over and over. The rabbit picked itself up in flash, and shot away up rabbit tunnel that ran through the tangled herbage. But ] the polecat had no time to attend to 1.-the offender Something else was l following hard on the rabbits heels, and the polecat had barely time to 1 fling himself sideways before that something came blundering in upon l him.
 i The creature was very excited over ! the chase, and 1 suppose the change | from the moonlit field to the inkly | black hedge deceived it. Anyway it's whiskers brushed the bobcats tail as 1 he slithered out of the way and per haps 1t thought he was the rabbit. 1 Quick as lightning it struck with barred | claws and inflicted a gridiron red tear two inches long across the polecat flank.
 Now bobcats -are bloodthirsty bri- gands and murderers, but they are no towards. In an instant the polecat [ faQ turned OH nlIuSeIl anu Uulf fOQ Al1o fangs in the other beasts throat, and the yelling, the splitting and swearing ! which followed made it quite clear , what the other animal was. Only a cat could make those unearthly sounds.
 That fight lasted 35 seconds. To judge by the scuffing, it was fairly fast Then the cat went away. think he was glad to go, because he ran as fast as he could
 About 15 minutes later something long and low and dark crossed quickly the open space of moonlight between two corn-ricks in a farmyard not far distant It was the polecat.
 He was looking for the fowl-house and presently found it. This cannot have been the first fowl-house he had investigated. I think, because he soon found his way in at the small entrance used by fowls.
 Then that polecat went mad with the lust of slaughter. He killed not one fowl. but as many as he could.
 He was racing about, staying all he saw. like a mad beast, when suddenly the door flew open and he stopped.
 Bang!
 The report of the gun was terrific The polecat semed to be suddenly swept from his feet and, dropping in a crumpled heap, lay still.
 "Ah!" said the farmer. "Pn teach
 eel" He turned to fasten back the door, which the wind had blown shut and when he turned again the polecat was gone. You see it is tricky work shooting with lantern and the pole cat had jumped just as the farmer pulled the trigger. He was only graz ed-and for the rest, he had simply feioned deAth as members of his tribe often do.-Buffalo Courier.

 There is an element of truth in this. To read of crime is to feel all those suppressed forces and wayward de- sires in us appealed to; we have often wondered what would happen if we should let ourselves go.
