HAND OF THE FREE"

This country is know the Hand of the free" fcr this reason. among others. the argument has been raised that literncy should be imposed upon immigrants
 Tho house o; representatives has passed by rather overwhelming a bill forbddng immigrants to in unless they language our own theirs
 There is-and always has been--a good deal of de. bate over this proposal We don't expect unanimity upon it. There motives playing purposes fin the discussion.
 The last congress passed it. and Mir Taft vetoed 1t Cleveland vetoed it generation ago President Wilson has ntimated that he doesn't much for 1t himself. though whether his dislike is strong enough veto he has not disclosed The favoraby inclined to the idea. and very likely we shall have chance to find out if the presidents opposition go SO far as that
 There is at best but doubtful gain in literate migrants. We have altogether too many of home pro. duction-many more than people think. They don't foundation very firmly the bulwarks democracy They don't adorn it's upper-works. though their sons and daughters Yet if the eracy adopted many ago should have lost many valuable cit isens.

 Congress, manifesty. Is pretty getting this rule made into law We must confess. on the whole. good deal of sympathy with congress. though well aware that harm will if the president dis. agrees strongly enough to induce veto. The most appealing argument against the measure. and the that will decide its fate if is vetoed that it puts this country in position of refusing asylum to the persecued from other lands where ignorance is the bitter fruit of tyranny and oppression

 This is of the agreement between the Institute and the Bureau of Mines. It is also agreed that the government shall receive certain portion the radi um produced at the plant Many incorrect reports concerning the enterprise have been circulated As soon as the investigation commercial scale pleted full report will be published As government chemists will be in charge in possession of all the facts, there will be chance for the management of the Institute back information If the method proves successful the chemists hope cheaper radium win soon be placed the market There will be no secrets to prevent anyone engaging the production of the much-soughtfor element

PANAMA TOLLS.

Excellent proof of the moral courage of President Wilson is furnished by his expressed desire for the repeal of the provision of the Panama Canal act which exemps American coastwse ships from tolls although the repeal is proposed in of plank in the Bal timore platform of the Democratic party Without ref. erence to the wisdom or folly of the proposed repeal one cannot withhold admiration for the President when he champions because he firmly believes he is right From the very fact that point of honor seems to be involved the people justly credited with honorable sentiments much interested in the action taken by Congress in the matter
 Action probably will first from the House Inter. state and Foreign Commerce Committee in the form of a bill repeal the toll exemption provision Repre- sentative Adamson chairman of the committee probably will introduce the bill next week He is awaiting word from the President in the matter
 Although repeal proposed in the face of plank in the Baltimore platform of the Democratic party. the of that phase of the proposed reversal of pol icy is not expected extended the influence of the contemplated action upon foreign relations
 Senate Democratic leaders plan to await action in the House before taking up the Presidents suggestion but the forthcoming debate the general arbitration treaty with Great Britain. which Is up executive session.. undoubtedly will provoke discussion the subject
 That opposition to the repeal will develop in the House Interstate Commerce Committee is indicated by Representative Knowland. who declared:
 We paying a dear price for the friendship of Great Britain. though it may help us out in Mex co. The proposed bill will, predict. preciptate of the most spirited debates which has been Congress for and will provoke free and full dis cussion of our present foreign policy"
 Senator OGorman. chairman of the Interoceanic Ca nals Committee, who declared following the announce ment of President Wilson's position that he proposed to fight against the repeal of the tolls provision ditch does not anticipate consideration repeal by his committee until the matter has been disposed of p he House

HIS BREAD LINE.

Henry M Gescheidt. lawyer and patent medicine manufacturer recently died in New York leaving pc cuar bequest He gave his fortune of three hun church to provide for the establishment of permanent breadline. The line is to be known by his name and every loaf of bread given to be stamped with his name
 The bequest is interesting enough, but far more fin teresng is the manner in which is being discussed
 The gift is reflection of the old fatalistc attitude to. ward poverty exemplihed by the biblical saying "the poor always ye have with you"
 The discussion that follows the of the endeavor-the hope that poverty can and will be cured and abolished.
 Says the Chicago Evening Post: "It is a great pity that Mir Gescheidt did not add provision relative to the use of his money when bread lines become thing of the past With the growing social consciousness of the American we'll of all other civilized peoples with experts like Dr. Devine of New York boldly an moreover that 1t win be solved such behest as this
 with all due allowance for the intentions on the part of its maker-seems a triae too medieval
 "The same money used to attack poverty at the root instead of to mitigate of it's symptoms would have been of much greater ultimate benefit to the com munity And in connection with the use of the money something could have been done the incidental pres eryaton of the name far more permanent than it's stamping upon the charity loaves"
 This. it is good to believe. is a fair reflection of the modern spirit Poverty not only be but will be cured

JAIL BREAKING IS FELONY

At the same time the justice stated that as he understands the law, when any prisoner who is accused of a felony attempts to es- cape, such attempt in itself consti- tutes a felony am that even if Sala' gar shall escape conviction on the murder charges he will still face iel- ony charges for his jail break of last Sunday evening.

Charity Ia a ssve bu, not cure; and poverty Is not tho disease, but symptom The real disease is social injustice; and social injustice and will be cured
 To leave fortune for permanent charity Is wise as would be to leave fortune to buy salve for Instead of for study of remedy the disease of which the sores are symptoms.

FAIL TO DIVORCE OWNERSHIP

WASHINGTON, May 25-Another at
tempt of the government to separate
the ownership Of railroads from indus
trial concerns met with failure to-day,
when the Supreme Court held that tap
line" railways, serving lumber camps IN
the Southwest, owned by the same in
terests, were entitled to share with the
trunk lines in through rates. The In
terstate Commerce Commission had
held this division of the rate was, in
effect. a rebate and ordered it discon-
tinued.
Justice Day, delivering the opinion
for the entire court, said:
Congress has not made it illegal for
roads thus owned (owned by the persons
who also own the timber and mills
which they principally serve) to operate
in interstate commerce.
He added that even the commodities
clause under which an unsuccessful at
tempt was made several years ago to
divorce Eastern railroads from the coal
business expressly excepted from its
operation the lumber industry.
COMMISSION EXCEEDS AUTHORITY
It was further pointed out that the
common ownership was not shown to
be inconsistent with the laws of the
states in which the tap lines operate,
and Justice Harlan said 1--WE think the
commission exceeded its authority when
it condemned these roads as a mere at
tempt to evade the law, and to secure
rebates and preferences for themsel-
YES.
In effect the court held that the tap
lines were common carriers, as to both
proprietary and non-proprietary busi-
ness, and that the ownership did not
change their character when hauling
commodities produced by company in
common ownership.
To-day's decision did not come as q
surprise to the Interstate Commerce
NOlHItAlooAOu. ulGnlUClS VI
sion were well pleased with that part Of
the opinion holding that the commission
has full power to prevent preferences
and determinations in the fixing of al
lowances and divisions of rates.
WILL READJUsT CASES
The commission has not taken up yet
the questions involved in the Supreme
Courts decision, but in the near future
the entire tap lines case will be read
justed in conformity with the opinion ot
the court. It is not regarded as pro
bable that the decision in any way will
affect the pending advance rate case, Of
that it will have particular bearing upor
the decision of the commission in the in
dustrial railways case in which the com.
mission held that allowances to the iror
and steel railways were practically re-
bates and ordered them discontinued

HOG COLERA CURE FOUND

WASHINGTON, D. C.,-Evidence Of
what appears to be a well organized
campaign to delude farmers throughout
the country into buying an alleged cure
for hog cholera, under the impression
that this has been Investigated and ap-
proved by the United States Govern
ment, has reached the Department Of
Agriculture. Articles praising this
medicine, Benetol by name, are being
sent out widespread to newspapers.
These articles are so worded that it
appears as if the Department Of Agri-
culture had received reports from the
state Of Minnesota showing that the
medicine had proved most beneficial
AS matter of fact the one report re-
eeived by the Department was an un-
official and unsolicited statement sent
presumably from the promoters them
selves. The Department attaches no
Importance whatsoever to this state
ment. 1t has no reason to believe in
the efficiency Of any proprietary cure
for hog cholera and does not recommend
any. Under certain conditions it urges
farmers to protect their stock with
anti-hog-cholera serum but that is all.
In connection with this attempt ii
may be said that the medicine, which is
now put forward as good for hogs, was
advertised some ago as means of kill
ing tuberculosis, typhoid, and cancer
germs, according to an article published
in the Journal of the American Medica
Association. At that time it was as
serted that the Army was interested ir
it. AS matter of fact the Army was
no more interested then than the De
partment of Agriculture is now.
Inview of the evidence that the at
tempt to create this false impression is
persistent and widespread, all hog own.
ers are warned to communicate with
the United States authorities before
accepting as true any statement thai
the Government recommends any
treatment other than the serum already
mentioned.
