WHITMAN,s sHREWDNEss

Governor Whitman, Of New York,
IS playing 4 very practical. shrewd
game in handling the liquor question
in thar State. He has staked his
political future in putting the city
local option bill through the legisla
ture. II is not az radical az desired
by the Anti-Saloon League, which is
supporting the submission Of a State
prohibition amendment and an op-
tional prohibition remoustran bill,
which would also give women Voice.
But the option bill supported by the
Governor would give every city a
chance 10 vote on the liquor question.
The situation in the country today IS
the reverse of what it was only few
years ago when the political candidate
had first to make his peace with John
Barleycorn. Even Congress has stiff
fened and kicked liquor out of the
Capitol The saloon at this hour
stands dethroned as factor In polit-
cal contests.
This attitude Of backing up the tenn
perance end Of the New York State
fight against the liquor traffic is moth
ing new, so far as the Governor is
concerned. He answered the Anti
Saloon Leagues questions in 1914,
when a candidate for Governor the
first time. In the legislative sessions
Of 1915 and 1915 he declare dhimselt
for The right OF the people to rule, and
was fought by The liquor men in the
recent campaign, in which the anti
saloon forces got the truth to the peo-
pie who rallied In his behalf. He was
elected by over 10000, running far
ahead of the party candidate for
President. There is some definite sig
niflcance in the present stand he has
taken. If the liquor men fight Gov
ernor Whitman little harder on his
conservative proposition to give cities
Of New York State the same right TO
yRe on the liquor question which the
towns (townships) now possess they
will attract nationwide attention to
him in such manner as TO make him
formidable contestant for the Re-
publican nomination for President in
1920.

A DREAMER OF DREAMS

Dr. p. p. ClaXton, who was appointed
Commissioner OF Education soon after
the Wilson administration came into
power, has al last qualified as Il true
Democratic executive. AS a means
of solving the high cost OF living prob
lem he would employ 10000 people at
an annual compensation Of $4,000,
900 to teach children 10 raise vege-
tables in back yards. AS a suggester
of ways to spend mouey. he has the
Federal Trade Board and the Depart
ment OF Agriculture beaten To a fraa,
!zle. Their solution of tho high cost OF
living problem was an appropriation
of 100000 for a six-monlhs' inveSu-
CATION, which the Senate very prop
erly squelched. You can't impress
anv American boy or girl between the
ages of . and Is that he or she has
any idle time on their hands. Why,
most Of them have scarcely time to
eat and sleep. Yet here is the way
the government expert figures 1t out:
In the schools OF the cities. towns. SUI
] burban communities and manufacturing
; and mining villages of the United STATES
there arc approximately G'OO0ooo boys
and girls between tho ages OF nine anu
sixteen. Most OF them are idle more
than half Of the year Even during the
vacation months only about ton per
cent have any profitable employment
| only about five per cent OF them 80 away
| from their homes except for few days
still, they must live and be fed ane
| clothed.
| For four millions OF these there Is
| access TO back yards. side yards. front
wards and vacant lots. which might pc
| cultivated as small gardens Tor inc
| growth OF vegetables and small fruits.
| Many live where space could be easily
had for chickens. ducks OF pigeons. ANA
! there are mot less than h.Dun,OnO "iocr
! boys and girls and adult mcr,and women
! for whom AN hour or two ul WORK c'tCh
day in a garden would be the best form
| of recreation and rest from the routine
| of their daily labor In office or shon
| or mill or mine. and who might easily
fine the time for it.
Great scheme, putting these H.
600, 900 idle hands to work, and about
as marvellous and practical as fgur-
ing out on paper the profits Of chicken
farming. And we see the boys and
girls being persuaded that this kind
of work is. good for them. Besides
most mothers would prefer to order
! their vegetables from the store rather
than suffer from the muss the anna
teur gardeners would make,
