MENDICANrS SEEK REFUGE
Al ASSOCIATED CHARITIES

As night came down only those whose
duty kept them to the paving remained
away from their parlor and drawing
room comforts. Mcndicants sought
early refuge at the Associated Chart
ties and other like institutions, and
soon ;hc street was clear. even OF the
professional aims seekers.
II was some weeks ago that the tide
of migration turned towards the South.
and EiChmond has had more than her
annual quota of bcSGarS. In spite Of
the assurances of certain Northern
cities that they would keep their
Migrants at home. Particularly ON
Ninth ana parallel streets have these
wary visitors found their haunt ana
piled their stories OF misery and hard
luck and Of their futile attempts to
find work in Il country more than 5000
miles wide and as many long. II was
only the other day that one OF these
professional "vags" forgot himself and
approached the same man twice. He
had received gratuity on his first
request. and when he was reminded
of this fact by the charitable man the
bcggar fastened on with vague
apology for his unprofcssional mis-
take.

When Rain Comes to Arizona
Providence Journal

The report of a downpour. of sev- eral days duration, in Southern Ari- zone, received with some incredulity in the east, is verified The sun- scorched region, which gave the old territory it's name in fact, does ex- perience plentiful rain at long inter ValS. \ It is said, though, that the old est settler in the Salt River valley cannot recall such a drenching as this one Ana an interesting and very important feature of the report is that the great Roosevelt storage reservoir, built since the previous rain, is almost full Ordinarily. the seasons supply of water is not obtained until spring time, when the snowsin the moun- tains melts. . #=#
 Two hundred thousand acre feet of water have been added to the stock at the Roosevelt dam by this sensa- tiOnal rainfall.

Prosperity Too Soon.
(Chicago Evening Post.)


 The Wall Street Journal quotes a prominent banker as saying:
 We shall not have to wait for a general election before prosperity, re- turns, and the only danger is that the prosperity may become so great before November 1916, that it may be the means of keeping the democratic par ty in power.
 In other words the supreme peril of the country is that it may have prosperity too soon. It is, therefore, the duty of all good citizens to keep alive any tendencies toward business depression.
 Could any position be more absurd? |?
 Yet there is a decided inclination throughout the country to believe that the republican party is adopting such a position. The country press" espe- cially throughout the west, is more than half convinced of it.
 The political impecca bility of play ing up' hard times in order to drive the democrats out it not questioned. But the morality of actually holding back the return of prosperity, for anti ! democratic purposes, is by no means accepted.
 AS far as we can discover the main weakness Tn the republican opposition to the administrations ship purchase bill is the cynical belief held by many Americans that the fight is being made primarily to delay the return of the prosperity which would deprive the G. O. P. of it's greatest vote-get- ting influence in 1916
 This weakness may spread to un- foreseen lengths if the standpat leaders make the mistake of the Wall Street Journals prominent banker" in confusing the means with the end The country wants renewed prosperity far more than it wants the control of any party, republican or democratic. The "calamity howler' is as bad as the calamity causer.

Lighting of Factories.

(Journal of Am. Medical Association)
 Factories should be we'll lighted, first because poor lighting injures the eyes, and second because poor light ing detracts from the earning capaci- ty of the workmen and is an extrava- gance. Good lighting is economical. It is strange how little attention is paid to the proper lighting of factories Beautiful buildings are built expen- sive machinery installed, safety de- vices used, ventilation, cleanliness rest rooms, sanitary lavatories, etc, adopted, but it frequently happens that the work rooms are very poorly illuminated, and that the eyes of the employees are thus subjected to con- stant strain. This is sometimes due to economy, but not always, for many employers are anxious and willing to do all they can for the comfort of their emplOycs, and spend a great deal of money for lighting purposes, but their efforts have not been guided by intelligence and experience. The same money or perhaps less would furnish adequate illumination. The question is not always one of fixtures, power and windows, but of consider ing the nature of the work and how the illumination, both natural and artificial, can be best adapted and arranged to suit the circumstances of the case. Many cases of headache, and of serious eye diseases, as well as accidents to the eye and other gans are due to poor factory illumi- nation.
 This matter was considered so i'm pOrtant by the French government that in 1912 it appointed a committee of scientific men to consider the sub ject of the proper artificial illumi- nation of factories. This committee studied the problem from the stand point of general health, and the eff feet on vision of artificial illumina- ton 1t endeaEOred to determine the composition and quality, from hy- genie standpoint, of the different com bustible illuminants, and to examine the effects of gases and the amount of heat developed: to fix a certain amount of artificial illumination as necessary for the normal require ments of vision and to study the most practical methods of measuring il- lumination. It also undertook to formulate recommendations for ap- plying customary methods of lighting to the chief varieties of industrial operations. and to present report on short sight and the impairment of vision as well as the best methods of guarding against these dangers.
 The investigation showed that the sources of high illumination must not be in the fe'd of ordinary vision; that the amount of light must be sufficient for the work to be done; that the

Scraps of Paper.
(New York Tim es.)

Knitting for the soldiers is still go- ing on in America and all over Eng land, but the supply of wooden yarn is said to be giving out Roubaix and Rheims and other centcrs of the wool carding and wool weaving trades of France are too near the figh ting line to manufa cture, and many other places have none to sell. This, how over, is not an unmixed evil for The troops. M. Clemenceau says that calico steeped in some oh emical solu- ton to make it waterproof is better than wool for wet weather protection, and correspondent of London Truth recalls the fact that the Japanese at Manchuria used pelerines and gugGa- rees of tough, soft and quite water proof paper. They also slept on paper sheets which could be folded into small compass, yet kept out the damp ness.
 Such paper is very cheap in Japan, and we in American have proved the usefulness and economy of paper nap kins, paper plates and cups, paper handkerchiefs, and numberless other things that enjoy a short life and d useful one by minimizing labor and emphasizing cleanliness. The findin Z of new uses for familiar materials will be, no doubt, one of the benefits of the devastating war

X Red Tape Monstrosity.
Portland Oregonian.)

Utter incompetence of congress to make proper provision for the gov ernment of Alaska is shown by Sec retary of the Interior Lane. Control of the affairs of that territory is di- vided among all the departments at Washington, and authority overlaps and conflicts at numerous points. To- cal officials have limited authority and many questions which should be decided promptly on the spot are re- ferred to officials at far-aawy Wash ington, who are ignorant of the con- ditions upon which largely the deci- sion must be based.
 MT. Lane cites several examples of the confusion resulting from what he we'll terms "the patchwork system of administrative machinery and from the absence of men on the spot who are endowed with full authority. A man who wished to lease an island for a fox farm corresponded for months with three departments to learn who had the necessary authority, and dis covered finally that none had the au- thority. Care of the black bear is in trusted to one departm that of the brown bear to another. MT. Lane says: "The control of lands is in one department, of forests in another, of roads in another, of fisheries in a fourth and of railways in still an- other" The people of Valdez ap- piled for town site survey in March 1899, but did not secure patent until March, 1912. Instead of police to enforce all the laws there are forest rangers, game wardens. protectors of fur-bearing animals, reindeer guards. bird wardens, multiplying cost and impairing efficiency.
 An indiSputable case is made for MT. Lanes scheme to create a devel- opment board which shall have charge of all the resources of Alaska, composed of residents of the terrific tory, With full authority under the direction of a single cabinet officer. For all practical purposes of administration, Alaska is as remote from our seat of government as are the Philippines or Porto Rico Great Britain might as well attempt to rule India and her colonies In every detail from London as the United States attempt to govern Alaska from Washington.
