came manifest that tho Giolitti type
of government was just the kind Il
bridge over difficult period.
II now appears that GIoLIrTI has
quietly worked out 4 number Of the
reforms laid down In NIrTIs pro
gramme, and the resultant benefits
have proved remarkable. TIe has in.
creased taxes. put through capital
levy and finally induced the Chamber
OF Deputies TO abolish the costly
bread subsidy. courageous act fol
which the Chamber deserves un'
stinted praise.
But the biggest surpise of ali comes
in the news from Rome that Premier
GIoLITTI has just announced that the
unwieldy $4,000, 100000 lire budget OF
last June has been reduced to 4,000,-
OOO,OO lire, an achievement which rot
even the most optimistic friends OF
Italy on this side had anticipated. II
is no cause for wonder that the an
nouncement was greeted with tumul.
tuous applause when made in The
Chamber Of Deputies.
Leading bankers and economists In
Italy and In every other country
have urged repeatedly that before
there could be return to economic
stability In Europe the Governments
which have been wantonly spending
money on a war scale must cut their
budgets to the bone and make income
balance outgo. Italy not only has
heard this advice but, what Is more
to the point, has needed 1t. In so
doing the nation has advanced long
way on the road to financial stability
and economic prosperity.

In Old Kansas.

Mr.. SID HARE, who goes in for ar
chanlogy, tells the Missouri Valley
Historical Society that there were men
in Kansas as early as anywhere. He
is confident that homo was knocking
around that part of the world at least
$4,000 years ago.
We do not doubt Ayr. SID HARE. If
anybody now had to go back $4,000
years he probably would rs lief be in
Kansas as anywhere. There was sun
light for warmth, grass for food and
possibly an eohippus to take the place
of the trolley car.
But, interposes the modern ad-
nirer Of Kansas, there were none Of
the great men who make Kansas
great. We are not so cure OF that.
In the Kansas caves Of $50 centuries
ago there may have been William
Allen White rndlating beauty OF soul,
or Henry Allen who saw to 1t that
the cave fires were kept going when
the too utterly primitive men struck.
We are not so certain that there
was an Ed Howe in Kansas during
the glacial epoch. Every age requires
an Ed Howe to keep 1t steady; some
body to lool, out the cave door and,
inspecting the mirages Of fad and
reform, to say 1T amt So" or 1T
will pass over" or 1--WE don't need
it." If there had been m Ed Howe
among the prehistoric Kansans they
would not have become prehistoric.

Stealing Rides.
Hoboes on Their Travels Dangerous
to Railroads and the Public.

To THE New YORK HERALD: When
the Government took over the operation
of railroads took up Jointly with the
Director General. the presidents of the
transcontinental lines and the Governors
OF a number of the Western States the
then important question of preventing
hoboes and 1. w. w. from stealing
or forcing free passage on freight and
passenger trains throughout the nation.
This question has long defied solution by
the managers Of the various railway
gers and possible reprisals of that class
of people.
Before the late war hoboes and /. w.
w. by moving in bands frequently took
forcible possession OF trains and con-
trolled them to the next division point.
In many cases when the city officials
were appealed to for protection and
proper punishment OF the guilty parties
they simply permitted them to depart
with the promise that they would get
out OF the city within a limited time.
During the war this practice appeared
to abate to a great extent. whether be-
cause Of Government control or other
wise cannot say. But ! believe that
the practice will recur with all its
viciousness II proper laws are not
enacted by the States and the nation to
prevent II.
There is a strong moral point involved
In this question which the unthinking
person Is likely to overlook. While there
is a great loss OF revenue involved. n
much greater loss results to the State
and nation due to the fact that the
habit of bumming on trains will and
has contributed perhaps more than any
other factor to the waywardness and
criminal tendency OF thousands OF boys
and men. It offers an easy avenue Of
escape to any dissatisfied person who
desires a change of locality. and when
INDUCED In makes of him an ordinary
tramp.
In all probability this bumming habit
contributed mainly TO the success Of
the /. w. w. organization and propa-
ganda. Many criminals md II the best
and easiest avenue OF escape. Our State
Legislatures and Congress owe It not
only to the future protection of the
railroads but also to the general morale
OF the citizens OF the nation TO make
laws which will check or stop this dam
cerous and demoralizing practice.

Miss Clug, Pianist, Plays.

Miss Ruth Ciug. pianist, gave her
second recital yesterday in AeoIian Hall
She was heard in the same place early
in the season, when her playing showed
the results OF good training, but had
not yet advanced to the level Of artistic
independence. The comments made at
that time might be repeated to-day.
Her programme was ambitious. Her
most venturesome attempt was ct the
Brahms variation and fugue on theme
OF Handel. In this the limitations OF
her art were clearly set forth. She
played the composition clearly and
cautiously, but not q few OF tho varia-
tions proved to be severe tax on her
technical resources.

The Grand Lodge of England made
certain inquiries of Prince Hall. Grand

made reply, which would seem to show
that as master Mason he was in fairly

TO TEST new LAW
X. C. Livestock Men Appeal to
Federal Court Today.
Ask Protection From PrOsecu-

Kansas City livestock men today
turned to the United States district
court for relief from the new Kansas
law giving the public utilities commits
sion jurisdiction of the livestock BUSH
ness, SO far as it is applicable to
them.

here today, the Elmore-Cooper-R Ryan
Livestock commission company and AL

Eastburn, livestock men doing BUSH
ness in the Livestock Exchange build
ing. asked permanent injunction
against the attorney general and the
utilities commission to prevent the
collection of penalties for failure to
comply with the law.
The plaintiffs assert that their BUSH
ness comes under interstate commerce
and that while cattle may be held for
sale on the Kansas side of the line in
the Kansas City stockyards. that in
reality the deals are always consum-
mated in the Exchange building. on
the Missouri side.
They declare the new law to be un-
just, discriminatory and in effect such
as to deprive the livestock men of
their property in violation of the con-
stitution of the state of Kansas.
