employment for college graduates than
Tor the betterment of the condition Of
the babies. With only $4,000 avail
able, it would seem that using $4,000
for salaries and $4,000 rent, the lady is
really extravagant. What does she
want with that $4,000 surplusi
It is probable most of this is re-
quired for stamps and incidentals and
there is really nothing left for work
ing capital We would suggest that
she fire a dozen or two clerks, and
spend little money on investigation.
To the average layman the question
also arises, What good can she accom-
plish, anyhow7 The babies can be left
to the tender care of their parents and
will probably be much better off than
if they were interfered with by Miss
Lathrop, and her bunch of well-select-
ed assistants. The fact that the de-
partment for the supervision Of babies
by woman who never had one Of her
own, gives employment, harmless en-
ployment, to fourteen college grad
yates, is probably sufficient reason fol
continuing it, for it will save someone
the infliction of incompetent help.

ion is carrying on a campaign for
better babies, and in doing so
II makes some comparisons that are
pretty wide of the mark. The
editor Of that sorrowsoothing and path
smoothing magazine recently visited
Washington and there found that Uncle
Sam was spending $l7OOO,OOO for the
betterment Of farms, livestock and the
like, but was only spending $4,000 for
the purpose Of getting better babies,
and for improving their condition.
The editor found that the department
was in charge of Miss Julia Lathrop,
whose duty it was to investigate and
report on all matters pertaining to
children and child life, and especially
on infant mortality, the birth rate, or.
phanage, juvenile courts, child dcser.

in the several states" For this wor,
she is allowed $4,000. The editor
naively says that ''Miss Lathrop' 3 sal
ary is $4,000 yearly, and that she has
fourteen carefully selected assistants
chiefly college graduates, whose sal
aries aggregate $4,000 yearly. De
ducting rent this leaves $4,000 for ac.
tual work." "
II does look at first blush, as though
Miss Lathrop was pretty badly hOndi

stock and quality Of the American

SOMEWHAT DIsINGENUoUs.

HE SPECTATOR, usually very
' frank, is a trifle disingenuous in
discussing the tariff proposition.
1t says that the majority was
against tariff reduction and
reaches this conclusion by adding all
votes not cast for the Democratic can
didate, and placing these as in oppo-
sition to any reduction Of the tariff.
As we remember the matter, there was
a strong plank in the Progressive party
platform favOring revision of the tar
iff downward and the Democratic par
ty was accused of stealing the Teddy
ties thunder. The result of adding the
Teddy vote to that Of Wilson would
certainly show a big majority in favor
of this reduction. Following out the
Spectators line of reasoning, Portland
did not want Albee for mayor very
badly, for he certainly lacked whole
lot of having a majority of Portland s
votes.
