roo LATE NOW.

The investigation now being made by the United States Senate to fixed the blame fer the horrible loss of life on the Steamship Frantic is only anotler illustration that the American officials as a rule "elose the stable dCor after the horse is out" The in yestiga.ion may have some good ef iccts. It may be directly responsible for better wireless serv ee on steam, ships, it may result in smaller ocean liners, it may provide for the en- dargement of equipments of life say ing devices and it may even pTever future less of life on the high seas But there is one thing settled and that is that it can never bring back .he unfortunates, rich and poor alike who perished on the ill-fated Titanic during it's recent maiden trip acros, the waters nor lessen the suffering that must necessarily follow tht dsa-L of so many heads of fam lies.
 The same action was taken by Con rsess and various state legislatures when the Iriquois Theater was des troyed by fire everal years ago il Chicago, when hundreds of men women and children were burned t crisp before the very eyes Of oth- err. The legislation tnas followed has had it's good effect, as probably tht present inquiry of the Senate Com mittee will have.
 But if the members of Congress and of the House of Parliament in Lon don had basa alive 10 it's duties an6 fersorally investigated the life aay- ing equipment on the mammoth ri, kanic tlSere might have Seen no loss of life Tn the recent catastrophe and in all probabil ty every member of the ships crew and every passen, ges would have been spared to theil relatives and friends and the Whfe < Sthr Line would not have been ths
 tb5ect ol so nlich criticism or ths
 arket of 60 many inquiries.

TOWNS THAT MAKE MONEY
San Diegans Expect to Be on MunIcl- pal Easy Street Through Exercise
 of Scientific Forestry.

San Diego, Cal, is said to be the first American city to take up scien- tific forestry as municipal enter prise. The city owns 1000 acres of waste land, a heritage from the time when it was a Mexican pueblo. This tract is now set aside for grow ing eucalypti, and last spring 40,000 seedlings were planted.
 Eucalyptus is very valuable and takes the place of many of the more familiar hardwoods that are becoming so expensive; it grows with truly trop- ical rapidity; it will stand an enor- nous amount of cutting and seems to thrive under it, and a grove once well started apparently will last forever.
 In San Diego, says the Survey, the more optimistic taxpayers are looking forward to a time when the forest will relieve them of all taxes and perhaps even pay them for being citizens of San Diego! They are not the only people in an American city to be con- graduated on doing good municipal business.
 July 6, 1911, the Detroit house of correction passed its fiftieth milestone. During the last 32 years over s1,000,- 900 in profits were turned over to the city of Detroit to the families of pris- oners and to the prisoners themselves. Since 1880 the city of Detroit has an- nually received sums ranging from $9,O16.S3 to $52,711.64.
 The original expenditure by the city of $189,S41.36 has been turned back into the treasury of the municipality, the institution has paid it's own way and in the 50 years show a fine bal ance of $1,254,17s.15. In addition to this showing, the prisoners since July, 1901, have been receiving financial benefits ranging from $5,95S.14 to $9,- 670.3S annually.
 In addition to amounts paid the pris- oners, some of which are sent by the men to their families, provision is also made for the families of those who are imprisoned on the charge of aban- donment. This is accomplished under statute which provides that $1.5O a week for the wife and an additional 50 cents for each child under 15 years of age be paid them out of the funds of the institution.

Blanc Hunt Wendell will not ba' "outdid". Editor Wendell issued his Arkansas City Democrat this week notwithstanding the Democrat office is floasing in flood waters and the newspaper press is almost inun- dated. Tie issue of the Democrat looks like a piece of writing paper, but we must admire the spunk of the gentleman with the fancy name and no one can rule h III off for not trying. The latest edition of the Ar kansas. City weekly came off a job press, that was propped up on stilts and the editor wrote his stories with a hen perched upon his desk. He says he is staying awake at Il ghts 2o figure out how he can get the chicks before the water reaches the hen.

a sufficient number of life boats and rafts for the safety of 'the T. employees and patrons But the real blame should go primarily to the gyernment officials and especially to the conl- mittee on Merchant Marine of Con gress and the same committee of the House of. Parliamept When the Iii tanictwas launched the one important featutes of life saving equipment should ;Ahaye sbeen looked Into by the officials of bothf the United States and England. ! .th
 Certainly the investigations now be ing made will develop nothing new Jas to the cause of the sea tragedy. srhe newspapers and the survivors Have made every desail of the acci- -tent public and the survivors them selves declare that there was not suf- cient life saving boats or rafts on the Titanic to care for the hunderds who sought to save themselves and who had several hours in which tc make preparations to do so. The Iii tanic struck the iceburg at 11:40 Sun- day night and did not go down until 2:20 Monday morning. The sea wa ;mooth, the night was clear and hac har 0b 'afts to care for unfot tunates whose l yes were snuffed out in an instant. ley too, might have been saved by he Carpathia. The value of the Marccni wireless system was toe clearly proven to need any comment t cannot perform what is intended for it unless there is cooperation on he part of steamship companies ant lnless they provide sufficient fe ,oats for its human sargoes.
 What tie governments should do use ar ounce of prevention and get pound of cure.
 A statement issued by the survivors board the Carpathia before their ar ival in New York says:
 'eThe English Board of Trade Pas. iengers Certif cate Bosrd of the Iii .anic allowed for a tCtal approxl- nately $500. The same certificate alled for lifeboats for the accommo- le.tion of approximately $50 people n the following hoa;s:
 "Fourteen large lifeboats, two smal. CT boats, four collapsible boats. The fife preservrs were accessible but we're apparently insuff cient in num- ger to accommodate all aboard.
 ''The approximate number of pas ,sngers carried at time of 'the colli- on was. First class, 330; second lass, 750. To.al 1,400. Officers, rew, $40. Total 2,34O. Of foreign
 assengers, about the following werS Aescued by Carpathia:
 "Firzt class 21o. second class 125 hird class 200. Officers 4, seamel
 g, stewards 96, remen Il. Fetal 746 avei, about 80 per cent of the maxi ] aum carrying capacity of the life boats"
 Concluding statement calls atten-
 ion to the adequacy of the life Sav-
 ng appliances aboard modern steam hips, necessita Ing remedial steps.
 }oard Of Trade rules allow entirely
 % many people lo each boat to per ait them fo he properly handled, the ta.ement says. The lack or tra ned eamen TO man beats, not enough of icers to carry orders on bridge and supervise and control life hoats, nd the absence of searchlights were thef faults noted in the statement An international conference to rec smmend identical laws providing for safety of all at sea $ urged; The 9anited States asked to take the ini- ftatfye. sf'
