More Shark Tragedies.

Four lives have now been taken by
tiger sharks in waters near New York
city. The first death occurred at Beach
Haven, n j., on the second of this
month, and the next at Spring Lake,
n. j., four days later, while yesterday
a shark killed man and boy in
Matawan creek, small stream flowing
into lower New York bay. 1t was pos
sibly the same shark in each case, though
this is not believed. Numerous fish of
this species have been seen in the
waters off the Jersey coast since the first
fatality, and the theory of some foher-
men is that these creatures have been
driven by scarcity of food close to the
shores, attracted by the presence of
many people in the water. Another the
ory is that the gulf stream has shifted
somewhat nearer the coast, and that the
sharks are brought toward shore by the
currents. Whatever the cause, their
presence near the bathing resorts has
become serious menace and already
means gre being devised to safeguard

Compensation Bill Passes.

Yesterday the House passed by prac-
tically unanimous vote the workmen's
compensation bill, which establishes a
system of federal compensation for in
jured workers in the government service
on an equitable basis This is an ac-
complishment which reflects credit upon
the House and should be followed by
prompt action in the Senate, so that
without further delay the government
may be aligned with modern business
establishments. 1t is reported that this
measure, however, will be listed in the
Senate with those of secondary conse-
quence, probably for action next win
ter. Such a postponement is undesir-
able from every point of view. The bill
itself will not call for much debate and
can only delay the procedure in the
Senate short time. 1t is well assured
of passage if brought to vote, and
probably without material amendment,
so that in the case of a conference
difficulties are unlikely. AS a fulfill
ment of political party pledges the en-
actment of the workmen's compensation
bill at the present session is most de-
sirable. As a measure of justice to the
government workers it is surely to be
rated as one of the urgent items on the
Senate calendar.

as a third party candidate, but if he

support might enter into the calculations
of the two old parties. The collapse of

Campaigning on the Border.

While the republicans will not con
test any of the lower southern states
with the democrats. who are now in
trenched there. they are planning, it is
reported, to do considerable work in the
border states, on the assurance of local
leaders of the party that the field is
promising.
1t was Organism which first made that
field debatable Until 1896 Kentucky
and Maryland had been safely demo-
cratic in all presidential campaigns.
There was republicanism in spots, as in
West Virginia, Tennessee and Delaware.
But it had not spread on national is
sues beyond a few congressional dis
triets. But when Mr.. Bryan became the
leader of the national democracy on a
free silver platform, the whole border
tiared up, and large numbers of demo-
Gratis protested.
1t was David B. Hill, then a senator
from New York, who predicted months
in advance of election day that the
border states for the first time would
in that campaign support a republican
presidential ticket. The prediction,
made in confidence to personal friend,
was not published until after the cleo
ton had been held. 1t was based on
the proposition that as all those states
were of progressive tendencies, with
credits established in northern money
centers, they would not support a fnan
cial policy certain if adopted to weaken,
if it did not destroy, the national credit
After the fulfillment of his predic-
tion Mr. Hill was asked if the result of
the campaign in those states would
show at later time in other matters.
He replied that, as democrat, he feared
it would; that the breach thus made
could not be easily healed, and that the
local democracy would suffer in other
contests.
That prediction also has been fulfilled.
In local contests the republicans have
several times since carried Kentucky
and Maryland. greatly strengthened
themselves in Delaware, and made of
West Virginia quite protection state.
The old ldlrockribbedness of the democracy
has disappeared.
wisconsin has succeeded Bryanism as
the democratic shibboleth. In the bor-
der states mentioned the democrats are
now in control, but by very slender ma
jorities In Kentucky last year the
democratic candidate for governor won
in an "eyelash finish" 1t was so close
a race, the victory looked like a
Scratch; and it left some bitter fac
tionism in the party.

Gen. Goethals' Retirement.

Gen. Goethals has earned his retire
ment from active duty as governor of
the Panama Canal Zone. When he was
promoted by Congress the right of i'm
mediate retirement was granted to him,
and had it not been for the develop
ment of slides in the canal he would
doubtless have ceased from active duty
ere now But he did not regard his
work at Panama as completed, for the
waterway was blocked. The conquest of
the slides was as much a part of his
task as the digging, and he remained in
active service until the channel was
restored. Now that this has been ac
complished and all indications point to
a permanent maintenance of navigation
from ocean to ocean Gen. Goethals is
disposed to avail himself of the privi
lege granted by Congress and to rest
from a labor that has had few equals
in the history of civilization.
When the decision was reached to in
trust the construction of the canal to
him Maj. Goethals, as he was then, was
an officer of engineers of whom the
country knew practically nothing. He
had most excellent record in his corps,
and was known as man of efficiency
and exceptional administrative ability.
Fortunately he proved to be precisely
the right man for the job. He had un
bounded energy, and he possessed tact
with driving power. A tremendous
problem lay before him. Mistakes had
been made in the early canal admins
tration, and he had to undo them with
out seriously delaying the progress of
the work. He had to coordinate thou
sand activities. He had to be engineer,
governor, judge, educator, entertainer,
hotel keeper, in short, little of every
thing under the sun. Some may say
that he was lucky in getting hold of the
right sort of assistants, but there is an
other way of looking at it. He prob
ably had the capacity for finding the
right sort of men. At any rate, he found
them and he kept the work moving, and,
moreover, he kept the Canal Zone so
free from scandal that it stands today
as the cleanest big job ever done in
history.
Gen. Goethals is still young man in
terms of the practical activities of to-
day, but he is wise in retiring from the
routine of military duty. There is no
immediate need for his services under
the government, though as a retired Off
Ger he can be drafted for duty should
an emergency arise. A grateful country
wishes Gen. Goethals long life and hap
piness.

The Prohibitionists.

Henry Ford as the prohibition candi-
date for President would cut very in
teresting figure. His nomination at ST.
Paul next week is predicted. Old line
prohibirionists are willing to make way
for him-are even urging him to run.
They declare that he would poll the full
prohibition vote, and many labor votes
into the bargain. As large employer
who has a good record for fairness, he
stands we'll with organized labor
This is the platform proposed:
"for worlds peace court for the ar
g bitration of disputes between nations
For the establishment of depart
ment of peace in the United States gov
eminent
"For national woman suffrage
"For the initiative, referendum and
recall
For tariff commission
'for national prohibition.
For only such military and naval
preparedness as may be necessary for
defense
Peace is Mr. Ford's shibboieth-his
outside Of business circles with plea
and scheme for ending the European
war, and suffered for the cause. He
financed disastrous movement for
calling the boys out of the trenches"
and as consequence became the OBJ
jeet of no end of ridicule both at home
and abroad.
Among his aids were prominent
women; and that fact would seem to
commit him to the general proposition
of a larger field of usefulness for women
A suffrage plank in his platform would
be appropriate.
The initiative, referendum and recall
would be bid, of course, for those bull
moosers who are holding out at present
against both Hughes and Wilson. They
are probably not numerous; but every
little helps.

bathers at the resorts along the coast.
| If these fish are present in considerable
| numbers, however, nothing is likely to
| be effective against them. They are dar-
ing and are not easily frightened by q
disturbance of the water. As in the case
latest reported, they penetrate into
shallow water and will attack close to
shore. One Of yesterdays victims, who
was only wounded, was swimming in
about three or four feet Of water when
bitten.
There is nothing remarkable about
sharks of this variety appearing in wa
ters off the New York and New Jersey
coast Sharks are to be found all over
the world, in the arctic as we'll as the
tropic seas. There are many varieties,
but only a few of them are of a type
dangerous to man. 1t is not believed
that there is any basis for the old theory
that "man- eating shark" is one of
peculiarly perverted taste. A shark will
eat almost anything living within reach,
and is attracted by any object moving
in the water. In all likelihood there is
some abnormal condition in the sea that
has has caused the sharks to come to the
coast and seek their food in the shoals
and inlets, with a chance to encounter
bathers. As long as reports continue of
the presence of these fish in these waters
bathing is certain to be attended with
dangerous hazards, for nothing short of
the stoutest steel nets securely moored
around bathing waters will exclude
them
