Sunday Plans for Worcester.

Worcester Telegram: The Sunday of lawful recreation. is rec
commended for Worcester by the commission to consider the advisable
|ny OF abandoning the last hold on the colonial observance. The
commission says open the Fairgrounds for the people, with simply
police control of the order thereon, that the open places may be used
to the best advantage for baseball and other games for the young
and to the amusement of older citizens. All legitimate games are
to be permitted so long as there is no charge forsadmisson or other
commerclalizng the sports. The commission advises that nothing
be done except it be well within the laws of the state, but those are
liberal as referring to amusements, including what the people may do
out doors as well as the shows for halls, including the movies. The.
commission OF men and women has evidently shaken off the ancient
ideas OF stralghtlaced Sunday observance, and taken the people at
their present disposition to regard the Sabbath as a day of rest
meaning a change from the routine of daily effort. And it looks like
the right way for modern Worcester.
1t is further proposed that Worcester consider the accumulation
OF a botanical garden for public use and finally a geological garden
both to be considered in their educational as well as amusement nos
slblltles. The plans as outlined or suggested are ambitious, and to
some extent are bound to surprise the more conservative people, but
they have been drawn from the best conclusions Of five men and
women selected to report after interviewing citizens Of various ten
denotes The report is a reflection of the popular will tempered with
discretion, and follows the laws Of the commonwealth as in late. years
amended to the establishment of the oldtimers. There is apparently
no conflict with the churches, as the amusements and playing may be
arranged to come late in the day, after religious services.

The progressive party ought not to be handicapped by Perkins
There is work in this land for a political party pledged as progressiyes
are pledged. Already its organization has been warranted by the
indirect results it has achieved. It has laid the reachonary repub-
|ican party low. 1t has forced progressive control of the Democratic
party. With such a record made in so brief a time Il should today
be a growing as well as a going concern.
The fact that it isnt must be ascribed largely to Perkins.
Even though we credit Perkins with complete sincerity In his
progressive enthusiasm and assume that he is paying the freight -
without Interior motives, he ought to see or be made to realize that
the part which he has cast himself for in this new political move
lnent is unsuited to his record and fatal to the cause to which he
pledges devotion.
Perkins can best prove the genuinencss of his professions by tax
ing a back seat.
If he isn't willing to sink the man in the cause, those VINO be-
live in the cause would do well to toss him overheard: and dosit ere
the ship is waterlogged.

Trust Brothers in Senate.

Chicago Record-Herald: Facts sometimes speak for themselves
The facts as to the trust bill in the House certainly require no lengthy
comment. The ssthree brothers '-originaly they were five in num-
ber-passed final muster with little or no opposition. The circum-
stance that so many republicans and progressives voted for the bills
is not surprising when the national platforms are taken into account,
and there is one thing to be devoutly thankful tor-namely, that the
bills cannot be made a partisan, political football. They will have
to be discussed henceforth, in and out Of congress, on their own
merits or dement's. Washington may be too warm and uncomfort-
able in June and July, but unfavorable weather would be a poor
excuse for hasty or insufficient study Of the trust legislation. Right
and wise action on that is essential to the health and comfort Of the
industries Of the country.

this summer. But most Of them will walk home bareheaded while

Finding the Goat.

New York World: 1t is obvious from Lewis Cass Ledyard's
story that the executive officers Of the New Haven road were respon-
sble for it's plundering, and not the great fnanciers who sat in the
board Of directors and put those officers in their places and paid
them their big salaries and Endorsed their financial acts.
Tt was equally obvious who We're to blame when the cover flew
off from lifeinsurance corruption. 1t was not the great Wall street
fnanciers who had sat on the directing boards of the big three"
and used the funds in their syndicate undertakings and trust pro-
motions. It was the executive officers chosen by the directors and
paid stupendous salaries and given a loose hand in letting go the
finds for the schemes and profits and corruptions of high finance.
But in the. one. case as in the other who profted most? Was it
high fnanciers, or the McCaHs, the McCurdys, the Aexanders and
the MeHens who were the messenger boys Of the high fnanciers?

Not a Man in Sight.

New York Times: With the election of 1912 nearly two years IN
the rear, the republican party is still without a man. The names
of Borah, IIadey, Cummins and La Toilette have struck no fire.
None Of them stands out from the others as, for instance, Mr.. Whit
man at present seems to from the other candidates for governor in
this state. Nobody concentrates in himself the things the party
stands for or appeals to the republican Imagination Nobody looks
like Moses. There is no discussion of the nomination, as there usual
I'M is at about this distance Of time from the year in which it is to be
nade-except when the possibility OF nominating Roosevelt himself
as the candidate. Of both republicans and progressives is mentioned.
III such d union should prove practicable, the little booms OF Borah
and the rest would wiher. If it does not, the republican party will
continue to drift along with a job lot of minspiring candidates still
hunting for d man, unless the election of 1914 should produce a man
for 1t.

Overwhelmingly behind certain trolley legislation the company
wanted.
Chief Counsel Folk set out to show that this sentiment in favor
Of the bill had been manufactured by the railroad. He produced
one Of the prayers from the hills, which were paid for by the
railroad, according to earlier testimony. This prayer began:
a1 will lift up mine eyes to the hills, when cometh my help,
After sparring with Folk jocularly over the authorship of this
prayer, Melen confded: There's lots Of biblical language in

Mellen:

And consider this from MI. Skinner, a New Haven director who
was on the stand as a sworn witness before Counsel Folk:

public sentiment9''

in that way?,,

Director Skinner, they must create sentiment in their favor,

Of the New Haven, in order to have the proper effect upon the minds
Of the people Of New England must have effective publicity through

another extract from Mellen's testimony.
After Mr.. Melen had declared that he believed the New Haven
spent less IN its campaign for publicity than other roads had spent
in a similar way, Counsel Folk asked:

Presidential Prospects,

Washington Star: The Americans, like the New zealanders, are
conservative in their radicaism.
Though the national tendency in the United States is distinctly
progressive, this movement is modified by the national tradition not
"a 60 to extremes in anything and BY the national habit Of checking
Its radical movements and drawing the political deadine in radical
ism abruptly and disoncertingly.
Thus the American people have checked themselves and recoiled
from ebasement Of the currency; confscation, open. or disguised, OIL
private property; government ownership Of railroads; recall Of
judges and Judicial decisions and standpatism in excessive protec-
tion.
The winner in the 1916 presidential campaign will be the party
which appreciates most accurately this national tradition and habit.
and seizes and holds the vantage point in progrcssivism beyond
which there will be reaction.
