TO RESTORE SELF-GOVERNMENT

Elihu Root is one of the ablest men
who in the past 40 years has taken a
prominent part in political leadership in
the United States. He has been IN his
time stanch partisan. As president
of the New York Constitutional Con
vention he is now probably engaged in
his last public service by helping to
revise and amend the fundamental law
of his native State. 1t will be noted
that he is doing his best to restore self
government to the people of New York
His late speech in advocacy of the ad-
option of the short ballot was especially
striking because of his vigorous de-
junction of boss government He has
been longtime intimate friend and
adviser of some of the New York boss
es. He speaks, therefore, whereof he
knows when he warns his fellow dele
gates against the dangers of ''invisible
government" by self-chosen leaders,
accountable to no one, bound by no
oath, and removable by no one.
All parties are alike afflicted by this
sort of dominating leadership. Mr..
Root insists that democratic, consti-
tutional government shall be restored,
and advocates the short ballot as lone
step toward robbing an irresponsible
autocracy of its indefensible, unjust and
undemocratic control of government. F."
This kind of talk will disgust alike Boss
Roosevelt and Boss Barnes in New
York and our boss Penrose and the
lesser bosses throughout the country,
but who shall say that Elihu is not dead

1t is highly necessary to build places
for the treatment of tuberculosis and
to get each case there for treatment in
the early stages of the disease. But in
the ordinary course of human events it
is almost impossible for a case of tuber-
culosis to be discovered by the phvsi-
clans and the authorities before there
has been danger of infection of friends
and relatives of the patient If they are
in the overworked, undernourished con-
dition which fosters the invading germs.
This is the fact which the anti-tuber-
culosls committees are now preaching
throughout the land, in conjunction
with their pleas for more tuberculosis
camps and sanatoriums General
Gorgas's experience in Panama is prac-
teal proof of this doctrine.
The overworked and underpaid who
die of this and other preventable dis
eases are not only a great economic
loss to society they are a constant
menace to the living. Safety lies in
helping them TO help themselves to
permanent healthfulness.

THE TOWN KNOCKER

The town knocker exists everywhere
to greater or less degree. Oakland
has its share of him. He is not aware
that his actions show his own weakness.
He does not know that every time he
knocks his town he is knocking himself
He is less numerous in good times, -
but he is an awful pest when "hard
times obtain.
The town knocker usually makes q
very poor living, and he could not make
a better one elsewhere, for in any new
location he would soon become tired of
seeing others succeed and begin to
knock the place. This undesirable
individual talks to hear himself. He
tells of the beauty of other towns; how
business is transacted in them; of the
wide thoroughfares and enticing bust
ness and residential districts-which he
has probably seen in pictures or books.

THE ECONOMIC CURE
FOR CONSUMPTION

Surgeon General Gorgas has not over
estimated the Importance of the county

cases, which is slowly making Roadway

order to stamp out the dread White
Plague, there must go he, insists, &C.

THE increase of wages in the Pan
ANA Canal Zone" runs his testimony
before the American Health Associa-
ton had more to do with the general
health conditions on the isthmus than
any sanitary measures employed there.
1t would be folly for US to sit back and
fail to do the things we know will sue
coed in the prevention of disease and
wait for economic processes to work
out improvement in the conditions of
the workers and thereby improve our
public health. 1t is equally wrong.
however, to neglect the fact that per
manent improvement, as to health, can
only be effected through improved living
conditions, to be brought about through
increased wages. The greatest single
factor in our present low standard of
wages as compared with the cost of
living is the fact that so much of our
land, which is the only true basis fol-
taxation, is permitted to lie idle, or is
only partially productive because the
man who improves his land is penalized

BATHING STYLES.

It's certainly as revolutionary a
year in bathing styles as it is in othel
aspects. Male bathers worry along
about the same as usual, wearing just
as little as possible, and making NJ
special impression on the world in
general because that minimum was
reached long ago. 1t is the women who
attract attention.
First bathing skirts began to disap
pear, in answer to a bold demand for
greater freedom in swimming. They
are still retreating, although Chicago
has declared that they must not go
more than four inches above the knee.
Along with this neither shrinkage, the
costumes are steadily growing mora
decollette, and are being made of
lighter and thinner goods.
A more startling innovation is the
discarding of stockings. Even the
Chicago police department has decided
to tolerate this innovation. Bare legs
are coming to be the rule therabouts,
and are increasing in frequency else
where on the Great Lakes and on the
Pacific coast. California has gone the
limit. Fair Long Beach bathers are
said to be wearing one-piece suits Of
the sort already familiar in Europe.
They are about the same as the ordin-
airy mans one-piece bathing suit.
"Immodest,' people call all these

new-fangled styles. Maybe they are.
But after all modesty is in he mind OF
wearer and observer, rather than IL
any particular type or costume. The
women say that skirts, shoes, stock
ings and even boomers hamper them
in swimming just as much as they
hamper men; and since this is an age
of equality, why, they ask, shouldn't
they be on a par with the male sex in
swimming? And whatever men say,
they'll have their way about it, They
always do.-Brunswick News.
