MAY DAY.

May day was remarkable this year
for the quietness and tameness Of It's
labor and radical demonstrations In
deed, It is probable that but few peo-
pie thought of the day at all as la
boris holiday for there had been little
OF the usual alarnist talk by the
police beforehand. Last year we were
warned to beware Of revolution on
May day.
There was, OF course, no danger of
revolution, but there was more elabo-
rate preparation for demonstration
than there was this year: In fact,
many OF the large European cities
seem not to have had any organized
demonstration at all this year, al
though labor observed the day by
stopping work. In all the capitals the
day passed as quiet holiday with
some orderly parades and mass meet
ings.
Only one instance of disorder was re-
ported. That was a small affray at
Mayence, In the occupied area of Ger
many, in which a Sergeant IN the
American army suffered gunshot
wound In the elbow. The reason for
the quiet observance OF the day this
year Is, probably to be found in the
general slump in Red stock all over
the world. Russia's fall from her posi-
ton as leader of a putative world rev.
olution has damped extreme radica

SHOULD LEARN ENGLISH.

Foreigners who come to this coun-
try and do rot learn the English Ian
guase within certain time should
be deported." declared Judge Herbert
l.. Rice in General Sessions Court,
this week, with special reference TO a
defendant who, although he had been
here fourteen years, was unable to
converse I'm or readily understand our
language. And the community will
incline to agreement with this dec
laration.
For many years the great bulk Of
foreigners who cams to this country
applied themselves industriously to
acquiring a knowledge Of the prevail
ing language. They found It to their
material interest to master tho Eng
lish tongue sufficiently for business
purposes as quickly as possible. But
In recent years there has been in evil
dence disposition on the part OF
many TO content themselves with
conversing altogether in their native
tongue and to care nothing for a
knowledge of English. This has beer
especially manifest In large cities
where all foreigners may nnd plenty
OF their fellows.
Deportation might seem harsh. bu
| in many respects II would be Just
At least no foreigners should be al

which has in view the promotion of
such a worthy and practical purpose.
IF TRUE. WHY NOT,

President Harding, in transmitting
to Congress- the report OF Director Of
the Budget Dawes. makes the claim
that the sum Of 1901. 900. 900 has been
saved in Federal expenses. and that
s250. .o00, 900 of this amount has been
due to governmental economies. OF
course, the President and his follow
ers will mako grcat rejoicing over
this showing. and claim much credit
for the present administration.
But this report will have to stand
the test OF thorough analysis and dis
section before It can be accepted a.
absolutely conclusive. While II is
claimed "ngures will not lie." II is
we'll l-known how they can be manipu-
lated In a manner to support any de-
sired claim.
But suppose this claim Of large saw
ing should provo TO be absolutely cor
rect. Would there be anything amaz-
ing about IT.
The World War. after our country
became involved In II, called for enor-
nous expenditures. which resulted In
the imposition Of correspondingly
enormous taxes. From these taxes on,
people are stin suffering. although
they have been reduced in part.
But that war ended three years age
last November. Is there any reasor
why our expenditures for administra.
ton should not havc been largely re.
duccd IN that timer Mono whatever

ment. They should have been in evi
dence. with much lower taxes. man.

WORTHY OF SUPPORT.

The Jewish organizations OF this
city viii conduct bazaar in the
Auditorium on West Eleventh street,
May % 20 %. inclusive, for the pur-
pose OF raising funds with which to
construct a Community Building. In
this commendable enterprise they
should have the sympathy and prac-

These organizations have under
way a community agency, but It is
hampered by lack Of even ordinary
accommodations, and naturally they
desire possession Of suitable build

ing all the purposes of its work. This
they should have.

OUR ADOPTED CHILDREN.

The American treats his child almost
from babyhood as n grown-up person,
with the rights to consideration and
hearing Of the grown-up person. This
requires quite remarkable patience,
which. incidentally. these same "spoilt"
children later show toward their own
children.
The adopted child comes In for much
of this general tolerance of and kfndli-
ness toward children, and perhaps one
OF the differences between the adop-
ton system In America and thnt Of
Europe Is tho acceptance OF the adopt
ed child not only by It's new parents,
but practically by everyone who has
TO do with II. Adoption is legally Sc
cured. The child takes the name of its
new parents or parent--for a number
OF single women have latterly adopted
chlldren--and II has ell the right that
would belong TO the ordinary child In
its own home.
Where again America differs from
other countries In which adoption Is

not one child only but several. 1t Ii

WASTING TIME IN DEBATE,

Debate over the tariff dragged it's
weary lengths through the Senate
during the week. 1t was not edifying.
Orators at times talked to deserted
chairs. AS long as debates take a
partisan turn and Democratic
speeches are denunciatory and made
for political effect, interest will be
lacking.
There is much in the bill that is
as satisfying as can be in the cir
cumstances. Anything like perma-
nent legislation is, of course. quite out
OF the question at present Changes
abroad are continually going on, and
this must be the case until there is
an approach. at least, to a settled con-
dition in the business and financial
worlds. All that can be expected now
of any measure is that 1t will protect
American industry from an inundation
by cheaply-made foreign goods. The
bill aims to do that.
But unfortunately It is not content
with that. Thoroughly bad, for in
stance. Is the schedule dealing with
hides. For years hides have been com.
ing In free. Against the protest OF
manufacturers of shoes and of leather
the Senate Finance Committee has
provided for a duty on the raw ma.
terial. This has been forced by tn,
agricultural bloc under the impress
sion that in some way the farmer.
will be benefited.
They will not be. A tax on hide,
with compensatory tax on shoes car
mean nothing but an increase in tn,
price of shoes. already sold at exorbit
ant figures, which the farmer will
have to pay, He will gain nothin,
from taxed hides. The packers alon
will have cause to congratulate them
selves. 1t will give them a firme

WORK

Work is always hard to do,
Every one of us prefers
Roses under skies of blue
To the br-iars and cockleburrs.
But there is no beauty here
But is born of someone's toll,
For the rose which blossoms near
Some one had to till the soil.
Work is father of the smile
On glad child's morning face,
Every joy that is worth while
Work has fashioned in its place.
Work has builded all we know,
Stitched the clothing that we wear
Set our houses in a row,
Leveled every thoroughfare.
And that sometimes we may play

Sweet with all the blooms Of May,
