Occasionally, we meet people who complain of the manner in which our schools are managed. They lament that their children are compelled to study too much and, as a consequence their health has become impaired. Then too, they complain of the ineffic iency of the teachers, claiming that the time spent in school is wasted, ow ing to the indifference of the teachers, as to the welfare oi their pupils. The trouble with such parents is that they do not look at this matter from the proper viewpoint. The number of children, who have ever suffered from too much study, is very small. Sys tematic study, under proper environ ments, will not injure any one. But the cause of all the troubles lies at the doors of those parents themselves, who are the most zealous in imputing it to others. Children of both sexes, not more than 11 years of age and often younger, are frequently seen on our streets, as late as ten and eleven o'clock at night, where they have probably gone immediately after supper; and there they can be found, unaccompani ed by any guardian to warn, them against the snares and pitfalls which always lie in the pathway of the young aud inexperienced, especially in these days of fast living. Parents who allow their children to go regularly to dancing parties, two and three times a week, and permit them to remain there, unchaperoned until midnight and later, should be thankful, if only ignorance, instead of infamy and disgrace, be their daught er's heritage. Late hours and insuffi cient rest unfit any child for useful study and, when those conditions pre vail, to the illiteracy of the child must bo added the crime of the parents. If parents would keep their children ruder their own supervision after nightfall; give them wholesome food; regular hours for study out of school, and regular hours for sleep in well ventilated rooms, the responsibility for i.rjured health and ignorant minds, would not be charged to over-study and inefficient teachers. Advertising an Art. Advertising has indeed become an art. It remains for it to become, if not a tine art, at least an art that calls beauty to its service. When it does, i-.uch of the energy that is now mis directed,' m\teh of the money that is now prodigally wasted in destroying the world's beauty, will bo saved. The right procedure is indicated by the most conspicuous medium for pnb l.c advertising. The press, in its daily, weekly or monthly forms, offers altogether the best means for calling public attention of all sorts of things. The best of pubile journals—those which are recognized as the most de sirable mediums for advertising, and which consequently obtain the highest j.rices for their services—make it a rule to classify and restrict in a judi cious manner the advertisements that they print. They confine them to cer tain parts of the publication, they restrict their display to certain de corous styles of type, recognizing that to admit a helter-skelter distribution through all columns, or to display them in incoherent fashion according to the whims of the advertisers, would largely destroy the very objects 1 eld in view. The readers of these journals would resent the intrusion of advertising matter into the space set apart for news, editorials, etc., and the influence that gives the advertis ing its value would decline. In the same way, the forms of ad vertising that now give exceeding of fense to the commnnity ought to be restricted and kept within proper limits. If this were effected, the prac t:ee would change from the public nuisance that it now is to a function that, in a considerable degree, might -jouple genuine service to the public with a presentation of its material in an interesting and black border all around it.—Harper's Magazine. HAS HARO SLEDDING Trolley Freight Bill Disfigured in Its Passage Through Lower House. WILL VASTLY BENEFIT PEOPLE Astonishment Expressed That Rail roads Have Allowed It to Progress So Far Toward Final Passage— Creasy's Amendment Voted Down. Harrisburg, Pa.—Just what will happen to the trolley freight bill be fore it goes to the governor for his signature is problematical. It cer tainly had a roiky roail of it in the house, and the senate may alter it somewhat before it is passed by that, body. In fact the wonder is that the railroad companies ever allowed it to get out of committee. There is no bill pending in the legislature today that will hurt the railroads more, eventually, than this trolley freight bill. Incidentally it will be a mighty good thing for the people. ~But the railroad companies are not paying much attention to the measure, strange as it may seem. They have enough business to keep them going now and to spare. But if there is over a cessation in busi ness the railroad companies will have togo gunning after freight for their roads. The state is pretty well gridironcd with traction lines, and if the trolley companies are permitted to carry freight they will do a tre mendous business right from the start. Great Benefit to Farmers. That the new law will stimulate business of every kind is generally conceded and for the time being at. least there will lie enough w go around and to satisfy both the steam railroads and tracticn linos. The great advantage this freight carrying privilege will he 10 farmers can scarcely lie estimated. They will be allowed to send their farm products to market by trolley, and will not be altogether subject to the condition of the wagon roads when bad weather sets in. Since the introduction of this bill the members of the legislature have ■been recipients of hundreds, probably thousands, of letters from the' farmers throughout the state, asking for the passage of the bill. That it is cer tain togo through no one doubts. It is a part of the platforms of the Re publican and Democratic parties, and 110 party man would dare oppose the passage of the bill unless under the pretext that it was not. in the proper shape for passage. Creasy's Good Argument. "Farmer" William T. Creasy of Co lumbia made a good argument in sup port of an amendment he offered when the bill was on second reading in the house, when he wanted trolley companies to be "compelled" instead of "allowed" to carry freight. He as serted that unless this was inserted in the bill its main purp se would be defeated. 11 is amendment was de feated. The railroad commission bill was reported from committee to the house amended so as to make the secretary of interal affairs an ex-ofliicio member of the commission. This bill will go through because, like the trolley freight bill, it was made an issue in the last campaign, and both parties promised to support it. The railroad committee also report ed favorably the Williams hill requir ing railroads to file with the secretary of internal affairs an exact report of their mileage under penalty of $5,000 fine. If this bill is passed it will put a quietus upon the bill appropriating SIOO,OOO for a state survey of the railroads. H. I. Riley of Allegheny, who introduced the measure, wanted to have it amended so that the amount appropriated should be $15,- 000 instead of SIOO,OOO, but the house postponed action which, practically speaking, means that his bill is dead. Measure Looks Suspicious. Legislators from the country dis tricts, particularly from the boroughs and smaller cities, are looking with alarm upon the Fahey trolley bill. It is designed to help Philadelphia, but its provisions apply to every trolley company in the state. It: permits a trolley company to "square accounts" with a municipality, 110 matter under what conditions the franchise was ob tained. For example, it is held, that if a trolley company agrees to pay a certain tax to a borough in return for its franchise the borough council may afterward make a deal with the company sitting aside the terms of agreement. Some of the country members agreed to support bill pro vided it were made to apply only to Philadelphia. Friends of the bill argued that this would make it un constitutional. The Fahey bill was defeated in the hous«, but afterward reconsidered and placed upon the cal endar for postponed bills. Seek Editor's Undoing. A "crazy horse" bill was introduced in the house by Representative Joe Call of Philadelphia. The measure re cites that witli the "press muzzier" repealed there Is "no adequate re dress by law for those defamed by the publication of libels and slanders." The bill then provides "that the de fendant in any suit for assault and battery or aggravated assault and battery shall ' acquitted if he prove that the p rsou {!!• persons upon whom tbe 11 iauli was committed wrote or published within one year CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 1907. previous to the assault, any false or defamatory matter concerning tho defendant, or any parent, child, sis ter, wife or fiancee of the defendant. Similar acquittal shall be the result if the assaulter prove that the per son assaulted was the proprietor, owner, publisher, manaßer or editor of any newspaper in which such ar ticle appeared." The provisions of the bill extend to civil actions for damages arising out of a case of assault and battery. If the person who committed the as sault proves the facts concerning the publication the one assaulted can get no damages. If, however, the cir cumstances should not be such as to relieve the assaulter from all lia bility and he prove that the ex penses incurred by him in defending the suit are greater than the amount of damages due the person assaulted a verdict shall be rendered for the defendant for such excess. New Popular Vote Bill. The committee on elections i« struggling with a new bill permittlir; voters to express their choice of can didates for United States senator. It. was introduced in the house by Repre sentative Gabriel H. Moyer of Le banon, and is far more sweeping than the one now 011 the calendar. The Moyer bill makes provision for in forming the legislators of the desires of the people. This was not incor porated in the bill on the calendar. It provides that on petition of 500 voters filed with the secretary of the com monwealth 12 weeks before the date of the primary election the secretary of the commonwealth shall notify Ihe county commissioners within three weeks to take the necessary steps to place upon the primary ballot the name of the candidate for whom the 500 have petitioned. A member of the state police force is liable to a fine of SIOO and impris onment of six months if he deserts, according to the provisions of a bill introduced by Mr. Moyer of Lebanon Governor Meets Obstacle. ■The state police force, it seems, has come to stay, notwithstanding Repre sentative Garner's threat that he would make another attempt to have his bill repealing the state constabu lary law placed upon the. calendar. The bill was defeated in committee and Mr. Garner tried to have it placed upon the calendar and failed. He had expected to make another attempt in this direction, but a ruling of Speaker McClain on a motion of the kind made on another .>i 11 will prevent Mr. Gar ner from being heard. The speaker ruled that a second attempt to place a bill upon the calendar was out of order. Hills passed by both houses during the past few days and sent to the gov ernor for his signature include the fol lowing: Bills Approved by Governor. To increase the salary of the super intendent of public instruction from SI,OOO to SO,OOO and of the deputies from $1,900 to $11,000; validating sales of real estate upon writs of levari facias awarded upon judgments ob tained upon writs of scire facias or mortgage issued subsequent to the passage of the act of July !», 1001; providing for n cording and register ing deeds: granting an annuity of $l2O to Deborah K. Greenchild, whose husband was. a soldier in the war of 1812, and who is not entitled to a federal pension; amending the whole sale liquor license act of 1597 by changine; the time when county treas urers shall pay all license funds to the state and municipal treasurers. The governor has vetoed but one bill thus far. It was one of the two new court bills for Allegheny county. He signed the other one. Distribution of School Funds. The bill introduced by Representa tive Habgood of MclCean, providing for a new method for the distribution of the school appropriation, has been reported from the house committee on education with an affirmative recom mendation. Under this bill hereafter one-fourth of the amount is to be distributed on the basis of the number of chlldi-en between 0 and 10 years of age; one fourth on the basis of paid teachers regularly employed, and the remain ing one-half on the basis of the com parative rate of valuation and tax levy. The purpose of this bill is to favor districts which assess property at its full value. Under the proposed appropriation of 1H millions the rate per pupil will be $4.89. Adjournment Not in Sight. There is no telling when the legis lature .will adjourn finally. Roth houses have agreed that no bills shall be Introduced after March 27. How ever, bills may be introduced by unan imous consent at any time notwith standing the rule, and more bills may be presented after the date set. In fact, some of the investigating com mittees will have bills to present after they have completed their work. The consequence is no one can tell when final adjournment will take place. The commission appointed to inves tigate the capitol building is doing ex cellent work. The members of the commission asked the gowrnnr to ap prove a 1)111 appropriating SIOO,OOO Tor expenses connected with their work, and he readily consented to do so. Accordingly a bill was introduce ! for that purpose. This will include the SIO,OOO already advanced to the commission. Even though the commission should spend the entire appropriation It will be money well invested for the com missioners already have In sight more than $200,000 which they expect to save the state in addition to the $27,- 000 they have collected from the liar risburg Trust Co. There will be something doing again this week. BAN Q. BARTON.
