The Coming Sane Fourth.
From the Chicago Record-Herald

FROM lne CnlcaEO RocOrd-Helald.
independence day is almost here, vet no
editorials or letters have been published
this year in Chicago on the necessity of
making the Fourth sane and safe. This
silence is most eloquent. Pleas and argu-
ments are no longer necessary here-nor
In several hundre other American COM
munities that have wrestled with and
solved a problem that only a few years
back seemed well-nigh hopeless.
Lest We forget, and lest we miss the
moral of a very successful campaign of
education. a few figures may again be re-
called. In 1908 over 5000 serious accidents
occurred on the Fourth as the result of
insane and reckless methods of .'cele-
ofating' the day. Last year the num-
Der of accidents fell to 1853. That dread
ed disease, lockjaw. so rare under ordi-
nary circumstances. claimed All victims in
1903: last year the deaths due to lockjaw
caused by the use of toy pistols and other
firearms in Celebrating" the Fourth num-
bered only four.
The day hat intelligent fathers and
mothers used to view with apprehension
and alarm has become a day of joy and
delight. Observance of the day is gen
uine and significant. Public, semi-public
and private bodies organize appropriate
celebrations for old and young alike. Not
patriotism. not civilization. but barbarism.
noise and hooliganism have suffered bv
reason of the change that amounts to a
veritable revolution.
The insane Fourth is dead. Long live
the sane FOurth!

has always been true that those who
talked 1t over in the open soon had
things settled and all went back to work.
Arbitrate means to weigh and divide.
That is. weigh the dispute and divide the
