Why Pardon Him?

The Boston Post speculates on
Just how much of front cell" cam
paign Eugene Debs will be allowed
to conduct. 1t notes that he is serv-
ing a sentence in the Federal prison
at Atlanta for violation of the espi-
onage act and remarks that after all
the place is a prison, not a political
residence. The conclusion, however,
is the astonishing part:
II this front cell" plan achieves
much momentum. it will certainly
not tend to help the front porch
any. 1t would be better in every way
If Debs were pardoned. 49,.
1t is somewhat difficult to see how
the Debs venture can affect the front
porch campaign in any case, but what
reason is there for granting a pardon
to Debs, other than possibly, the
usual reasons for executive clemen-
cy?

Showed the Better Sense

What would you regard proper
qualifications for a President of the
United States" was a question in a
series, which New Hampshire
schoolmarm requested her small
boys to answer One of them re-
turned the following: "a president
should have good fizzical training, he
should belong to a church and he
should be a luvvabel man if married
to his wife" This answer is re-
specially referred to the considera-
ton of any one of the numerous par
ties in quest of candidate, but this
is not done with any degree of con-
fidence it may meet with approval
"Luvvabel" men are not the speci-
mems to fill the specifications, which
consist solely of ability to below de-
fiance to every existing regulation
and to promise every impossible
thing that may catch the fancy. We
think the school urchin showed much
the better sense.

Honorable Dealing Not q Lost Art

In New York some of the landlords
are saying to tenants: "Others are
willing to pay seventy five per cent
more than you are paying and you
will have to pay as much or get out"
and while a new law provides the in
creases shall not exceed twenty i've
per cent complaints are frequent
that it is being violated.
1t may be possible to imagine a
neighborhood, cut off from supplies
by reason Of food or other disaster.
where some necessity Of life might
become SO scarce those possessing
sufficient wealth could offer almost
fabulous prices for some article re-
CARELESS Of it's cost and without con-
sideration for the neighbors. The
fellow who exploited the misfortunes
Of his neighbors under such condi-
lions would doubtless experience a
revelation if he escaped with his life.
Owners Of rents should certainly
be protected in any demand adequate
to the increased expense under which
they do business, but they should
not be protected in obtaining the ut
most that abnormal conditions may
permit. II they should be denied this
privilege Of extorting plumber fn0m
the misfortunes Of the community.
why should others, in other lines Of
business, be allowed to charge "all
the traffic will bear?"
Many. readers will recall from
their past acquaintance men of
successful affairs who, while in
sisting on reasonable profit,
would have felt insulted at the
suggestion they extort the utmost
possible without regard to cost or
actual value. But that is old fash
toned, those men are dead" some
skeptic may remark, unmindful, per-
haps, that the pendulum still swings.
that old fashions to recur. that hon
orable dealing is but fair play, good
sportsmanship applied to business.

A Cry From the Dead


Drifting up the Delaware River
ject that looked at little distance
like human body f1oated to a pier
along the Philadelphia water front
and was picked up there. 1t was a
life belt that had Travelled many
thousand miles for more than five
years; on it was the fatal name Lu-
sitania. The imagination darkly fol-
lows that journey. The Hydro
graphic Office explains that the belt,
thrown overheard on that 18th of May,
1915. to some sinking victim, was
probably carried by the ocean cur
rents past Spain and Gibraltar,
down the African coast, westward
by the Bahamas into the northward-
flowing Gulf Stream. Unnoted so
long by the eye of man, this mute
witness of an objectionable crime
gives its evidence at last.
There is certain fitness in it's ap-
pearance now, when the memory of
that crime has grown dim in too
many hearts, when fall the pacifist
mob is demanding oblivion for Of
~S-'SN' NAV " llcdNGH. II is a
just sentiment which makes the sink
ing of the Lusitania a pre-eminent
symbol of the German idea-to make
war with no regard for humanity. to
strike down the helpless, to fight wo-
men and children. The outburst of
noble rage which greeted the deed
was creditable to human nature.
That President of the United States
should suggest that the nation was
too proud to fight" in such a cause
Is blot upon our honor we would
fain wipe out.
Yet it is a candidate for the Pres
idency whose newspaper sought to
justify and defend Germany almost
up to the very moment of our long
delayed entrance into the war. It ia
the so-called 'liberal-minded men"
VINO are still pleading the German
cause and endeavoring to avert the
punishment which Germany so rich
~ merits. That life belt floating into
an American port is a cry from the
dead not to forget; it peals like an
gels trumpet-tongued against the
oeep damnation of their taking off.

Another Effect Of Dry Life

In the opinion Of the New York
City health department, one more re-
suit Of prohibition is a decrease in
the number of heat prostrations.
Men not saturated in alcohol they
say, stand up better and work bet
ter in hot weather than do drinking
men. The hottest day Of the sea-
son. when the temperature was 30
degrees produced only one heat case
and ON the second hottest day. at
SO. no prostrations were reported. It
stands to reason. the doctors say. that
the stronger the body, the better is it
able to withstand attack. And that
applies to other conditions than heat
prostrations, too.

The Budget

(The Republican Journal)
Briefly defined, the budget for ma
ton, a state or a town, presents an
authenticated statement of the finan-
cial condition of the nation, state or
town, followed by the opinion OF the
committee on budget as. to what spe-
cific appropriations are necessary,
having due regard for efficiency or
service and wise economy. We have,
in this State, a very good budget
law. Our fiscal period is two years
beginning on June 80 following the
regular biennial sessions of the leg
islature. The making of our State
budget is in the hands of a commit.
tee known as the committee on bud
get and consists of the governor, the
State auditor, the State treasurer, the
chairman of the committee on ap-
preparations and financial affairs on
the part Of the senate and the chair
man of similar committee on the
part of the house. During the month
of October preceding the regular BIZ
ennial session Of the legislature all
heads of departments, institutions,
boards and individuals who are to be
entrusted with the expenditure Of
public moneys, must file, with the
secretary of the committee on bud
get, written statements showing in
detail the amounts appropriated and
expended during the current fiscal
period of two years and a written es-
innate of what they consider to be
necessary expenditures by each dur
mo tho ficpo1 nnrin6 of fyr0
years, together with the estimated
income. On the third Tuesday of
November preceding the regular BIZ
ennial session of the legislature the
law requires that the committee on
budget shall meet at the state CAPT.
tol and proceed to make budget
showing what amounts of money, in
their opinion, are required for the
proper conduct of the business of the
State. The committee is authorized
to visit departments, institutions and
undertakings for which appropria-
tions are requested, for the purpose
of investigation and may hold hear
ings. AS a part of the budget there
Shall be included an estimate of the
revenue of the State for the ensuing
iiSNe'A PSi iCo anu Il INPoI VI lHc ga
penditure of State funds during the
current fiscal period Statements
shall also be made showing the total
valuation of taxable property in the
State as compiled by the State as
SCISSORS. the rate of taxation required
to meet the appropriations, and the
estimated income of the State for the
ensuing fiscal period. The budget is
to be transmitted to the legislature
not later than the fifth day of the
session. and all papers filed with the
secretary of the committee on bud
get shall be transmitted, upon re-
/ quest, to legislative committees.
From the above it can be readily seen
| that our State budget is made by men
OF high standing and in closest touch
| with the affairs and needs of the
State. 1t gives our legislators a.
foundation on which to build and is
a check to extravaganza in the ex-
penditure Of public funds. Congress.
after much deliberation, passed a
very good bill providing for a ma
tlonal budget system. The President
vetoed it. Why should we worry
, about that? 1t is not worth while 70
