CONTROL FIREARMS.

One thing which municipal all
thorities and state legislatures
should bestir themselves to ac-
complish soon is the control Of fire
arms. There should be uniform
regulations covering the sale or
purchase Of such weapons. In
some communities where local sale
is forbidden it is still possible for
the purchaser to. do his buying in
another locality and proceed to
commit murder or accidentally in
jure other persons.
The sale Of poisons is pretty
we'll guarded in most places. Why
should not the sale Of automatic
pistols also be safeguarded?
1t is reported that the New Eng
land states, through their govern
ors, will take definite action in this
matter before long. The movement
should not stop with that section
Of the country.

Americanization is such hard

The children in the foreign quar-
ter may be unwashed and i'll

The investigators find, TOO, that
there is no great mystery about it.
They thrive mainly because they
are fed on plain, simple food.
The same situation is found in
the humber native homes as COM
pared with homes Of the better
class" The poor children, in De-
troit and other cities where the
matter has been looked into, are
actually better nourished than the
rich children, because rich chill
dren usually get rich food, and
that is not good for children.
It is the old story Of Daniel and

THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN

The celebration Of Columbus
Day on October IL brought out a
fact regarding the name America
which is not generally known, and
well worth knowing. 1t makes an
interesting study in etymology as
we'll as in history and patriotism.
Every school child learns that
the name America was applied to
this continent by a German map
maker in honor Of Amerigo Gin
Latin, Americus) Vespucci, in Ital-
ian discoverer and explorer. Yes
pucci was of German origin, and
his first name was merely the 1tal-
ian rendering Of his old family
name Emmerich. That name, in
turn, was derived from an earlier
form Amal-ric, which in modern
German is HimmelreiC and
meo0s Kingdom OF Heaven.
An appropriate name. surely
and one justifying the American
custom of calling this Gods Coun-

AN ASrATIC EEAGUE.

A dispatch from Toxic tells Of
an Asiatic league which is being
formed, with Japan at the head,
with the avowed object of combat
ting the aggressive policy Of the
white race 1t expects to confine
its activities to the Asiatic conti-
nent. Headquarters are to be es-
tablished throughout Asia, if pres
ent plans carry.
Such a movement n u II y
causes alarm in America and Eu-
rope, although it's professed pur-
pose is purely defensive. If the
great Asiatic peoples can be arous-
ed against white aggression, :"
their union may conceivably go be-
yond it's original purpose, and act
aggressively against the white. And
if Asia evers undertakes such con-
certed effort, it will be a solemn
day for the white race There are
billion people in Asia of the Mon
golian and other oriental races,
and according to H. c. Wells, most
Of them have as good brains as we
have. 1t is only q question, he
says, Of training those brains.
The prospect becomes less. dark
when the actual difficulties of the
plan are considered. The Japa-
nese promoters expect to start with
the Koreans and Chinese. Neither
race likes the Japs, and both would
be far more likely, for the present
at lease, to ally themselves with
America than with Japan. AS for
India, the Japs cannot hope to ac-
complish much with that medley Of
races and religions, especially if
China will not play the game.

naming witnesses vas taken tins

testimony Of the young girl, who,
according to the statement Of two
physicians, was again not p1ysl-
cally fit to give testimony before
the court. Judge Mauldin ruled
that there was not sufficient evi-
dence and testimony TO hold Wal
lace for trial upon the first charge
but that the court would let the
other charge stand to go before
the jury. At the time Of the ad-
iournment OF the court for recess
