Faith Healing.
Facts Wanted Concerning Cures
Reported in Brooklyn.

To THE New York HERALD: Those
who believe that the age of miracles has
passed have rather difficult problem
weeks religious services were conducted
in a monstrous tent in Brooklyn. at
which several hundred persons testified
that they had been cured of various all
sments by prayer.
What is the answer? Are we to as
sumo that in all cases the beneficiary
was simply reused out of a state Of
debility or hypochondria by the encour-
agement of a religious exhorter. thereby
l.berating the restorative and recupera-
tive powers. so that relief or cure natu-
rally followed?
: Did the inherent tendency In all hu-
man beings to garble, distort and exag-
gerate when given the corresponding
stimulus assert, itself in some cases so
that witnesses testified mistakenly and
were never so i'll as they claimed?
Were there no real cures of organic
disease? Was the whole matter snare
and a delusion? Were the numerous
alleged cures OF cancer. tuberculosis,
Brights disease. blindness. &C. reported
ir Brooklyn papers altogether false?
Does any New York HERALD reader
who has some talent for accuracy OF
statement know anything about this
matter, and will he favor US with his
information?
1t won't do to let real miracles get
away from us II they are actually within
the range of our powers of observation.

Cong atulations to Both.

THE NFw YORK HERALD warmly
congratulates Al SMITH on his nomi-
nation Tor Governor OF New York and
warmly eongIetulates Mr.. HEARST on
his escape from political entangle-
ments and public place.
The man at the head of big news
paper in big town has very big
public job when he puts into 1t the
best there is In him-bigger than
any other public place save the
Presidency itself. But Mr.. HEARST S
newspaper domination is not re-
stricted to one big newspaper, he has
many big newspapers.
AS for AL SMITH, well, he has got
just what was coming to him, for he
is the idol of his party. When he
came into the field as candidate
for the Democratic nomination no
ether man had chance beside him.
But in spite Of his personal popu-
larity he will not be elected. That
honor will go to Governor MILLER on
the very splendid record of his first
term-a record that is matchless In
the great State of New York.

the failure to give proper care to
farming implements.
The farmer whose property is free
and clear Of debt and In whose pas
lures and barnyard pure bred live
stock and poultry are found has a
building in which farming imple-
ments are housed when they are not
in use. Painted at regular intervals
and treated to liberal coat of grease,
rust does not corrode the mechanism
of reapers and other fine machines
whose usefulness is easily impaired.
During a recent trip through this
State an observer was struck by the
appearance of a field near the right
of way. At some distance from the
Earn were a reaping machine, a ma
rure spreader, hay loader and a
plow dotting the landscape. 1t was
in keeping with this lack of care Of
farming tools that the barn should
have a sign reading This farm for
sale" displayed on one end. Habits
of order lead to thrift. and in no
business does order yield more gen.
erous returns than on the farm.
Lack of it means failure.
A place for everything and every
thing in it's place is motto which
should be in every farmhouse in the
land.

Hope for a United Ireland.

There are signs in Ireland that she
may be united. THE New York
HERALD's Dublin Bureau hears that
Ulstef>which doubted last winter that
The south would or could ever go
through with the treaty program,
realizes now that the Free State is
a going concern; that its stability.
which did not die with GRIFFITH and
COLLINS, is assured, and that the
men behind it intend we'll toward the
south, the north and England.
The signing of the treaty between
Ireland and England left Ulster in
a bad temper. The diehards Of the
Carson type protested that loyal
people were being left at the mercy
of rebels and that Ulster never would
enter the Free State Under Article
XII. of the treaty she was free to
stay out and continue her own gtv-
ernment under the provisions of the
Government of Ireland act Of 1920.
Even Sir JAMES CRAIG, statesman
FAR more liberal than his predecessor
III the Ulster leadership, CARSON,
held out no hope of united Ireland.
He was willing, however, to cooper
ate with the Provisional Government
Of the Free State in the matter of
ending the racial and religious war
between the two sections of Ireland,
and the agreement that was signed
IN London on March 81 between the
Irish Free State, the Ulster Govern
ment and the British Government
went a considerable way toward end
ing the bloodshed in the north.
Only a wild optimist would pre-
dict an immediate cessation Of the
hostility between Ulster and the
south The hatreds there have been
too old and too bitter to be wiped
cut in month or year. But Ulster,
when she sees the Cosgrave Ministry
putting down the remnants of DE
yALEnA's following and doing its
best to keep young Government
going, cannot but understand that
the south is burying the past and
marching into the future. To join
her would be easy; the treaty has
provided for that.
All of Ireland under the Free State
would mean that the boundary Ques-
tion-which never can be adjusted
to the satisfaction OF both sides
would disappear. 1t would mean
economy-one government instead of
two. 1t would mean the peaceful
threshing out in single Irish Par
Lament of the economic problems of
the whole island.
After the miracle of the Free State
united ireland is certainly not
beyond hope.

visions so far as they go.
There is no doubt that steps must
be taken to curb the lawless use of
firearms and to make their posses
sion more difficult for suspected per-
sons. And probably the best way to
do that lies in uniform law which
would operate against spch a situa-
tion as exists in the case of New
York and New Jersey.
The law proposed, even il strictly
enforced, would not succeed in COM

Special Dispatch to THE New YoRK HERALD.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 29.-Dr. Josiah
III. Penniman, acting provost OF the
University Of Pennsylvania. to-day
strongly indorsed college education for
the masses in an address delivered be-
fore large audience at the formal open
ing OF the 173d academic session Of that
institution.
DR.. Penniman's plea for the further
expansion of American colleges and
universities to meet the increased de-
mands for higher education was seen
as sharp contrast to the idea OF form
ing an "aristocracy of brains advanced
by DIR. Ernest M. Hopkins. president of
Dartmouth, when that college opened.
Although the acting provost did not
mention DIR. Hopkinss name, 1t was
evident that his address was a strong
defense Of the "open coor policy adj
vanced as medium to further advance
democracy in collegiate training. DIR.
Penniman urged a city college for the
centers Of population such as Philadel-
phfa and New York.
Throughout the land" said DIR.
Penniman, colleges and universities are
finding it difficult. owing to the LACK Of
physical accommodations, to admit all
candidates who. satisfy the entrance re-
quirements. This is unfortunate and
should be remedied by adding to the
equipment of existing institutions, and
also by providing additional institutions
to take share of the work"
DR.. Penniman approached the prob
lem from the standpoint Of the people
and the nation as well as that Of the
university.
IF a college or university. and more
especially a university, is really worthy
the name" he said, "it exists to pre-
serve. to disseminate and to increase
human knowledge. All else is incidental.
though important, and it's student body
must consist of those through whom
and by whom it can best perform those
three functions.
when we are obliged to turn away
applicants because we cannot provide
for them II Is necessary to adopt some
method OF selecting the entering class
Various methods have been proposed for
accomplishing this task. To the right
OF life, liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness Is now being added apparently
the right to a college education unless
we regard that as included in the pur-
suit Of happiness
mo American Institution, unless pri-
vate and restricted. has the right to
adopt a method of selecting candidates
that in any way violates the principles
laid down in the Declaration Of Inde-
pendence or the rights Of the American
citizens as guaranteed by the Constitu-
