The Salem Fire

The city which has suffered SO severely
from the disasterous fire last Wednesday,
Salem, Mass is almost the Oldest town
in New England, two years older than
Boston, and settled only eight years
after the landing of the English colonists
at Plymouth. In its early days it was
entirely devoted to shipping interests and
it's sea.captains were known in all the
ports of the world.
Later it had greatness thrust upon it
through the genius of Nathaniel Haw-
thorne, prophet who has never quite
had honor in his own to wn, being es-
teemed there something as Shakspere
may have been by the Stratford gentry
of the Justice Shallow type.
More recently Salem has developed
extensive manufacturing an d commercial
interests and at the hour of this great
disaster ha population of As, 900.
There is no doubt that the city will
show the same courage and enterprise
that has characterized other New Eng
land cities and towns under similar cir
cumstances. We hope that some of this
spirit may be expended in making a rep
etition OF the disaster i'm possible.

A Good Example

The Supreme Court of the United
States having handed down a number of
highly important decisions, has taken a
recess until next October.
Just fourteen cases in which arguments
had been made were left undecided.
These include the cases involving the
constitutionality of the grandfather
clauses" limiting the right of certain
negroes to vote; the midwest oil land
case, involving the validity of Presi
dent Taft's withdrawal of oil lands from
entry; the Nashville grain reshipping
clause; and the Henry case, involving
the right of Congress to compel individ-
uals to testify before investigating COM
mittees.
The highest tribunal in the land is set
ting a good example to the subordinate
courts of the land in correcting the laws
delays of which so much complaint is
made. By clearing the calendar and ex-
pediting important litigations, the court
of last resort is establishing a record for
industry and diligence to business which
leisurely jurists in various lower courts
might with profit try to equal.

National Anniversaries

July is the month of National Birth
days, both in this country and in France.
AS we celebrate the Fourth as Independ'
ance Day the French Republic celebrates
the 14th, the anniversary OF the fall OF
the Bastile, 1889. With the destruction
OF that symbol of tyranny the activities
OF the French revolution began.
Though the French Republic is younger
than ours, we have never heard that it
followed the childish ways of celebrating
national anniversary which are so
slowly dying out with us
Our nation can never be worthy of full
respect until we show better way o.
celebration than noise, brag and boast
ing can give; certainly not till a larger
proportion of our people can avoid the
disgrace of drunkenness on the national
holiday.

Sensible Celebration of Fourth

1t is only six years since four cities in
the United States demanded a sensible
celebration of the Fourth of July and the
doing away witt. dang use of explo.
sives on that day.
The number of cities and towns taking
action in this matter has increased each
year. What is the resu.t7 One is that
last year there were less than one-fourth
the so-called accidents on the Fourth of
July that were reported in 1908. Last
year there were in the whole country
only four deaths from lockjaw resulting
from such accidents, while in 1903 there
were All such deaths just after the "Old
Fashioned Fourth" Common sense paws.
Let the day be observed, but have the
celebration of the ''safe and sane" kind.
