that soon will be cleared up
The President believes tho sub

tialties as to constitute the real
menace aainst continuance even OF
the broken relations peace that
new exist between the United States
and Germany.
In this connection the administra-

lievcs real danger with tho Kaisers
government cannot be eliminated un-
an the Objectionable U-boat decree is
revoked by Germany
There ia nothing to indicate Ger
many's immediate intention OF re-
stricting her submarine warfare.
The fact that more than two weeks
have passed without an covert act"
and that tho tonnage sunk bv the
German U-boats appears to he rapidly
falling off has created optimism i'm one
branch Of the government, but I'm the
other is regarded as being of no sig
nlfcance and resulting more from
chance than from anything else.
It is pointed out that the big thing
i'm Germanys threat is serving its
purpose with American shippers or
ficials say that if Germany keeps
vessels i'm home ports she is accom-
plishing just as much as II she sunk
them on the high seas. And this af-
fords the greatest problem stir for
THIS government.
II appears TO be the hope OF one
branch OF the government that as the
U-boat catches" diminish in number

ward opening up safe lanes OF travel

OUR STATE AND HIsTORIo PAINTINGS.

OF all the decorative features OF the state House in
" Dover there that attracts greater attention
and evokes favorable comment than does the large
mural painting by Stanley NJ. Arthurs which shows
the Continental troops leaving Dover Green II is at
the west end OF the Senate Chamber and is concededly
OF the best pieces of work turned out by
a Deawarean.
IL is proposed that the decoration OF the Senate
Chamber shall be completed by putting five more
mural paintings of historical nature the walls. Sug
gestion is made that show the ratification of the
United states Constitution, that organic instrument
having been ratified first in the old building in Dover
and that the other paintings depict the Indian
Dutch Swedish and English periods of settlement Of
our State.
The idea is happy II possesses great historic
value II our Legislature and Governor be wise
they will perfect plans for carrying out the enter
prise without unnecessary delay The work should
begin soon possible after the present session OF
the Legislature adourns. II possible, It should be
completed before end OF Governor Townsends term.
A DISTINGUISHING feature OF the Arthurs painting
that already adorns the Senate Chamber is its ac-
curacy If the other paintings 10 be made at all,
the state before letting the contract should receive
assurance from whatever artist may be selected that
so far as it may be possible the same degree Of ac-
curacy will feature them.
That however, is a matter OF precautionary detail
The chief thing for the Legislature to do now is 10
pass the bill authorizing the work to be done
Evening journal., 1917-03-09
High Cost of Living

health and strength, removal from
temptation to vice, and education Of
the best type; and for older persons,
rest and recreation in the open air and
the Joy Of watching things grow.
This might all be attained at COM
paratively little cost by putting into
the public schools for every hundred
children, between the ages OF nine and
sixteen, one teacher skilled IN gard
ening and paid for all the year. One
such teacher could easily direct the
work OF 100 children. and OF the $50
older persons belonging to the fam
lilies Of these children or living in
their community Thus 10000 teach
ors of this kind would DO sufficient for
the entire country. These teachers
might easily be had for an average
additional salary OF $500 or q total OF
$50 ,OOO.O 600. There would be some cost
for seeds and some for fertilizers and
tools. but after the first year the cost
of these last two items would be
comparatively little The proceeds
would represent profits 70 a greater
, extent than in any other kind OF pro
duction. The miracle OF it is in bring
ing together idle land on the one hand
and idle children and tired people on
the other. Alone. neither is produc-
tive. but all would be benefited by the
combination even if the vegetables
and fruits produced had no value; the
4 land by the cultivation, the children
4 bv the health-glving, educational Ia
Dor. and the older people by the hours

AN EXCESS or DRY zEAL.

upon the local option situation in Dover;
We congratulate Speaker Hervey p Hall upon the
stand taken by him when the Boyce bill proVding IoI

sderaton In tho Houes last week. Speaker HAN point

laon yet he did not believe it tho fair thing to force
a spccia election upon the people OF tho city or VII
nngton when they had expressed their desires 10 me
contrary by sending wet delegation 10 represent
that city IN the Legislature.
The "drysr are making a mistake They have work
Ing majority which apparently has turned tho heads OF
the leaders OF that faction, and instead OF trying 10
enact legislation that will satisfy the people or tho
state thereby nsurne It's continuance upon the statute

legislation possible BY breaking the precedent osab-
llshod in this state with relation TO local option they
have done the prohibition cause far more harm than
good. for they have opened the way for every tl-
ture "we" Legislature TO force an election on the IL

whether tho delegations representing those eoun-
tics arc "wct' or dry"
In fact as Representative Connolly expressed H. they
have turned the prohibition question into Aeesaw 10
be iuggled first way then tho other. according
TO the strength of each faction in the Legislature NO
longer will the wishes of the people Of one district
prevail, with regard TO vote on the license question,

the "dry leaders have established dangerous prece

lure sessions OF the legislature It Is pity that the

Editorial Opinion
LAS BEEN RENDERED.

From the New York Sun.
None Of the explanations put for
ward by the Senators who prevented a
vote on the armed neutrality bill sat
isles or deceives the nation they be-
trayed.
Their record made in the closing
hours Of the Sixty-fourth Congress
establishes their purpose and reveals
their design. No sophisticated reason
ing. no appeal to technicalities can
avert from them the condemnation and
scorn of Il States they shamed. From
the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the
Canadian border to the Mexican from
tier, the indignation Of the citizens
they misrepresented disowns them and
their labors against the common cause
and condemns to futility their services
to disloyalty.
Judgment has been iendered on them
wherever patriotic men congregate,
and from that Judgment there is no
appeal and no ingenuity Of mendacity
can help their case.
