THE TARIFF.

You can't make an omelet without
breaking eggs, and somebody has got
TO get hurt if a tariff be reduced or
increased. We know very well, how.
ever, that The tariff b%eneiciaries are
certain to eXaggerate the menac of a
reduction, and the Democratic party
has in any case got to hew to the tar
If reform line, let the chips fall
where they will.
Sheop as an incident OF general
farming cannot be affected by remoy-
ing the duty IN wool. The market
for mutton is good, aud even in so
prominent a wool State as Ohio a
high Protectionist authority told us
fifteen or twenty years ago that the
mutton sheep We're displacing the
wool sheep. Mutton is so much more
important than wool that the Depart.
ment of Agriculture has been expert
menting with a woollcss variety of
sheep.
When the present high duties fail
to prevent the depletion of the ilocks
in every part of the country except
the Rocky Mountain region there is
not much to be said in favor of wool
duties except from the revenue point
of view. The party was elected to
reduce the tariff; it must do so; it is
going to do so regardless of local and
personal interests; and within three
years its policy will be indicated by
results.

ORIGIN or CITY TYPHOID.

We are coming to the season Of the
year usually marked In our cities By
the annual increase OF typhoid, attrf-
butcd 10 infectious materials carried
by freshets into water supplies. There
BIAS recently been a protest against
what Is called the rural origin Of ty-
phoid.
Typhoid is usually considered to be
mainly, II not almost entirely. a wa.
t%er-borne disease. There is no doubt
that drinking water has been respon-
sible for the great majority Of cases
in large cities. Yet the water seems
to be slightly, If at all responsible for
typhoid IN some cities.
The more carefully the sources OF
typhoid infections have been studied,
the 0 frequently has milk been
discovered TO be the chief vehicle OF
Infection. Efforts at control have re-
suited in a decided Improvement, but
the education of the dairyman is a
slow process, and dairy farming is
still largely In the hands Of the ignor-
ant. Statistics show that one-fourth Of
all the city's typhoid infections are
Of this origin. While 1t is impossible
to give any exact figures, over one
half of the TYPHOID Infections are OF
rural origin.
The problem in one city is probab-
~ the same as that in another. As
our knowledge of sanitation grows we
realize that the health of the individ-
ual depends largely IN the communi-
~ in which he lives, and that the
health depends to a great extent on
the health of our communities having
commercial and other relations with
1t.
While Martinsburg IS engaged at
this time in a fight for better health
conditions would it not be wise 10
stop and think about the origin of
typhoid fever and how to prevent It?
An up.to-date sewerage system will
be the greatest blessing the city ever
enjoyed, and the good derived from
Il could never be told. Therefore. let
every citizen be alive to a sense of
his duty and lend whatever he can
toward securing for the city this great
Improvement.

The ENTERlne.mEneE.

Something more than the assent of
the President Is needed to exempt la

the TAFT Administration, but it vas re-
toed IL was nullifed on the ground
that ii was unconstitutional, and that
Congress and President no less Than
the courts were sworn TO obey the
Constitution.
The report that President Wilson
and Attorney-General Mciteynolds
are favorable TO the action requires
confirmation. They know that laws
must be OF general application. lLoy
know that what is a crime for enc
man must be a crime for all men.
They know that in a celebrated case
from Illinois, where in local antitrust
legislation IL was attempted TO IL
cense farmers and ~workingmen to do
what was forbidden to merchants and
manufacturers, the Supreme Court Of
the United States interviewed in be-
half of equal responsibility.
Furthermore, we are confident that
both of these gentlemen know that
not all of those who want to amend
the Antitrust law are the very dear
friends of farmers and w~orkingmen.
There are powerful interests so in.

THE CITY sEAuTlFuL.

When a city is TO % made bcauti-
full or when its citizens set about
identifying it, the work should be done
well. There ought to be plenty OF
lights, good water, good streets, good
payements There. are cities with ex-
ecrable payemcntsl aud few crooked
streets. There are cities with natural
advantages whose beauty can easily
be enhanced artidcially, and wheIe
this can be done without excessive
cost to the people it ought to be done.
There are cities in which the
streets are very crooked because no
attention was paid TO street building
or street opening in the early days.
The ( reefs often followed The line
OF a b THAT was the most conven-
lent way Of soiug from enc point to
another, and foot.paths in the old
days were never famous for their
straight lines. Indeed it has been
said that there are streets built along
the line of the wanderings of a graz
ing COW. We suspect that that is only
intended to humor. There are streets
that would be much longer than they
are if some power could take them by
each end and pull them straight. And
that is quite as humorous as the other
specimen.
1t is owing to carelessness in the
first place that in some cities two sec
lions of a continuous street bear diff
ferent names or numbers. 1t is very
confusing TO the stranger, walking
straight ahead on a city street to
find that after crossing an interesc-
ton he is on a street with a different
name. There are streets that have
projections like bay windows.
II is to be regretted that the City
Beautiful was not a fad when streets
were laid out, and that regularity OF
street lines is not always considered
as OF prime Importance. Perhaps
that will come in time.

SUNDA YSERV|CE
Mr.. Pearson Outlines His Plan Of
Work-Relisious Meeting Will

3 o'clock with the new executive, w.
r. Pearson IN charge. While the at
tendance was small the interested
manifested was Of such a character to
show that a new era has dawned for
the Y. M. G. A. and that better things
are in store for ii.

TO organize wrestling clubs and at a
later date viii give a tournament and
offer prizes In the first, second and
third class weights. To stimulate in

cause the young men and boys to
show more interest in this particular
sport.
Whlle the wrestling classes are at
work other athletic sport win not be
overlooked. Indoor games win be
revived and Mr.. Pearson hopes to
create more interest in them than has
heretofore been in evidence.
Announcement was also made That
the new water heater viii be installed
this week. 1t will have a capacity Of
500 gallons an hour, which will be suf-
hcient to fill the tubs, showers and
pools. This is considered very neces-
sary for athletic work, and all will
appreciate this improvement.
For the present it is the intention
of the new executive to maintain the
Sunday services, and a cordial invita-
ton is extended to all. So far the
speaker has not been selected for next
Sunday, but the announcement Will

A CRIME or NATIONS

The coercion of Montenegro by the

attention of the world by reason of
the defiance Of the little country in
the face of such overwhelming odds.
Montenegro has Scutari within her
grasp, but when 1t comes to the lay
ing on the hands the giants of the con-
tinent rise in their might, and at the
same time advance the ridiculous ex.
cuse that this concert of action is
necessary to ward off a general con-
Migration" To the observer on this
side European diplomacy may APP
pear vague and beyond understand

position OF Albania may be advanced

In due course Of time the powers
Will reach an agreement as TO the
division of Turkish territory, and It
is plain that the Balkans are not
going to get all they have won. If
the powers can make a division with
out getting into a fight among them
selves il will be almost a miracle. But
in the midst of the uncertainty the
bravery of Montenegro for the mo.
ment stands out in bold relief,
