HOUSEKEEPING LESSONS FOR GIRLS.

cTa HE teaching of domestic science to girls is essentially a
duty of government. A vast amount of the misery in the
M world is due to ignorance of the duties of housekeeping
md the economies of the kitchen. There is an incalculable
amount of waste of food among the poor as well as improvidence
in their purchase of necessares. Bad cooking makes i'll health
and destroys efficiency. 1t is also provocative of domestic dis
cord. Girls in factories and stores who have had no training
as housekeepers marry without the least idea of their duties
as wives and often with unfortunate results. Public school
authorities everywhere are awakening to the great need of
teaching domestic science. In Chicago $4,000 girls are learning
housekeeping and with it they are learning the lessons of econ
omy and efficiency that mean domestic content and happiness
in their future lives.

Denies Assailing, Rivals.
To the Editor of the Evening Star;
S~ir-Reports have been circulated
that /, or my friends, have taken adj
vantage of certain published state
ments regarding my rival in the con
test for the m~ayoralty nomination on
the Republican ticket, for the pur-
pose Of doing harm to his candidacy.
l want to say that so far as 1 am
concerned this rumor is unqualifedly
false and does me an injustice which
1 feel keenly. Never would ! take
advantage of such a situation to in
jure any man in anyway whatsoever.
In the case of my friends the rumors
are equally false sc far as 1 know.
If any friend Of mine has taken such
a mean advantage l don't want him
as a friend any more.
The public is able to form a just
estimate as to the merits of the two
candidates without any attempt to
warp hat judgment.
I shall thank you for publishing
this letter. Sincerely yours,

A MYSTERY OF CONDOLENCES.

eTa HREE persons. each owning considerable amounts of
money, had financial dealings with a New York LAWYER.
One, a woman, was mysterously murdered; another, a
man, as mysteriously disappeared, and the third, a woman, was
drowned from a boat in which she was sitting with this lawyer.
The strange chain of condolences has prompted an investiga
lion. In the case of the second woman victim it was alleged
hat there was fraud in a will purporting to have been drawn
Dy her, making the lawyer her executor. Evidently there is
much to explain to clear up these mysteries. The case of Lawyer
Patrick, now serving a life sentence, will be recalled in this con
lection. Patrick procured the murder of an aged client in order
% get possession of his property by means Of a forged will.

TO o FRAUD

COLUMBIA, S. c.. Sept. 6.-The call
of John Gary Evans, chairman of the
state Democratic executive commit
tee, for funds to conduct the investiga-
ton of alleged election frauds, is
bearing fruit. The call was not made
until yesterday afternoon, but the
fund is already substantial and it is
believed 1t will soon become large
enough To conduct the entire investi-
cation. Some of the late informa-
ton of fraud in the election is sur
prising. From counties where no ru-
mors of corruption had escaped are
now reporting specific instances.
Darlington and Greenwood counties
are the latest to unearth scandals.
In Greenwood county n of the boxes
had "a more votes in it than there
were names on the registration list.

BULL MOOSE LAYS
CAMPAIGN PLANS
Jersey Leader Preparing for
Election Fight-Send Out
Warnings. Il

Preliminary. plans for the campaign
Progressive party were discussed at
a meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Progressive State Commit
tee, in the Essex building, yesterday
afternoon. On all sides it was said
that the outlook~for party success
was growing brighter each day.
The county organizations through
out the State have already started
the work of preparing petitions for
candidates who are to be nominated
primaries. Third party advocates
all through the State will be warned
to take no part in the primary of any
party this year. Should they do so,
under the law, they will lose their
right to vote in the Progressive pri-
maries next year, when the Progress.
sives will be a party recognized by
law.
With Edmund B.. Osborne. chair
man of the executive committee, in
charge, the headquarters in this city
will be opened for business next
week. Both former President Roose-
welt and Governor Hiram johnson
will campaign in New Jersey before
election, and in every county the
local organizations will wage the
most vigorous kind of a fight.
Two additions were made to the
executive committee yesterday when
the names of John K. English. of
Elizabeth. chairman of the Progress
sives committee of Union county.
and Harold J.. Rowland, of Verona,
were Endorsed for membership.

OUR LOCAL POLITICS.

II N the hurlyburly of national politics this fall local election
affairs are not going to be lost sight of. Interest in the
; election of mayor, aldermen and Board of Works com
missioners is already active and at the present time when men
gather there is more talk about local candidates than about
national candidates and issues. The present city administration
has given general satisfaction, for its record is a good one and
without a breath of scandal. The Common Council has per
formed it's duties quietly and efficiently and without reproach.
If the Board of Works has failed to come up to just expecta-
tions it is because the board as now constituted is a survival.
There should have been a change in the control of that board
in 1910 A change this year will open the way for important
economies of administration and will give vitality to the dock
Improvement policy adopted by the city that has been mort
bund in the board ever since.

SCUM cARoLlNA,s CROOKED PRIMARY.

VIDENTLY the politicians in South Carolina are as adept
H. in the crooked art of politics as are the politicians in
New York. In the Democratic primaries in that State
recently Governor Blease got about 1000 majority on the
face of the returns, but it was found that the total vote for
was 100000 more than the census of white voting males. Ia one
county the returns showed 5000 more votes for Governor than
FIR any other candidate voted for. As Blease got the benefit
Of this great imitation of the vote in the State, it is reasonably
believed that his partisans are responsible for it. Investigation
will show. 1t would be bad enough for South Carolina to have
another Blease administration and worse if it should be had
under such circumstances.
