The samo show of publla spirit which has clinched tho transit victory can win tho nbolltlon of tho twenty-flvo per cent tax on gas. Tho Colonel now Insists thnt no one should be allowed to voto who has not served six months with tho colors. Docs he mean that tho women must also bo soldiers? Mr. "Wilson Is going to namo seven Judges within tho next fow weeks. As Mr. Brandels Is already provided for, It seems reasonable to supposo that nothing In tho way of a sonsatlon Is forthcoming.

The gathering of tho labor clans for ft struggle with capital comes at a time when every day brings a now report of Increases in wages voluntarily granted. In Camden six hundred men will receive nn nvorago of $80 each as a result of tho General Chemical Company's decision to give bonuses of from five to flfteon"per cent of employes' annual earnings. The congestion of frolght has been relieved to such an oxtont by the embargo which the Pennsylvania road put on this city that after eleven days it has been found posslblo to accept all frolght, save grain, shipped horo. When the embargo Was ordered thero wero 8000 unloaded cars at tho various terminals. This num ber has been reduced to 6400. Thero Is hardly a newspaper In tho country that has not taken its fling at Mr. Wilson's prescription for a decrease in the cost of living the raising of larger crops. But tho big Idea, was launched after election. The middleman has come in for n. aovero drubbing at the hands of the Prosidont, nnd tho farmer is getting most of tho sympathy. It would be Just aa well, however, to In vestigate the charge made by Commis sioner Hartlgan, of New York, that tho western farmers "knowingly concealed at least twenty-live per cent of their wheat crops" in their reports to the Govern tnent, in order to forco up prices. Our people havo passed Into a day of rich humanitarian treatment Our Gov ernment has been steadily devoted to the holy task of serving our peoplo with gifts of health, happiness and pros perity. From Governor Brumbaugh's Thanksgiving proclamation. The inclusion among tho things for Which to be thankful of tho program broadly known as progresslvlsm is the distinguishing mark of the Governor's summons to tho peoplo. Wo are usually asked to be thankful for good harvests, for peace and for freedom from the visita tions of famine and pestilence. But the Governor asks us to express our grati tude for the hmpantzing of government The State and the nation at large have net out on a road which may lead them to the'land of the Ideal toward which the dreamers of a better time have beon yearning for centuries. The proclama tion la on epoch-marking document. Buth Saw's -air trip of nearly S00 miles is chiefly remarkable because h had, previously never made a flight longer than twenty-flvo miles. She has shown that.lt is not hard to become an sir pilot able, to, meet the most drostla military tests. Yet this country is sig nally deficient in accomplished aviators. A corps of them Is tho most obvious need In our preparedness program. In this there is no question of calling upon hun dreds of thousands to leave their busi ness for the drill ground. There is no cconomio obstacle in the way of calling upon four or five hundred men, a dozen front each State, td keep in aero training and ready for active service with the cfclora, ISlaa Law is to be congratulated upon navipg renaereq ner country a trreftt service In Advertising "the Platts barg' of the air" and in challenging "the stronger sex" to a competition hard to evade. These are supposed to be the golden days of the South, with Its Congressmen lpitfiHt tMafa In Washington and a jitiMsm birth nd.sym Eueitfng migration of negroes to the Northern factories Is threatening ft serious labor shortage In tho South. It must be marked, Indeed, to have caused such fantastlo talcs of tratnload.4 of negroes Imported to vote In tho doubtful Btates. Thero are doubtless many who have Ured of hoar Ins tho tlmo-honored Southern plaint that "tho noRro will not work" chucktlni? how at tho efforts mado to Indiico him to stay at homo to work in Ilia fields. Hut this la a Bhalidw taunt. Already thero aro ro ports along Mason and Dixon's lino of negroes returning from tho North, whoro they cither found tho factory work uncon genial or not so remunerative as they Imagined. Somo havo been arrested for vagrnncy, Tho agencies which aro en couraging negroes to go North should Bhow discrimination. It Is unfair to em ployers North nnd .Month and to negroes, too, to draw thousands of Incapables on Jaunts about tho country. For thoso who nro cajmblo It Is tho best thing In tho world that there In a demand for their labor, nnd In regard to their de parture tho South can havo no Just com plaint. A REFORM THAT CANNOT BE OPPOSED rpiin commltteo of cltlzeni, tho United States District Attorney's fllco nnd this newspaper, cooperating to bring to light tho almost Incrcdlblo growth of tho narcotic drug ovll In this city, urged tho onnctmont of a Stato law to stop nt Its source tho poison hidden In tho llfo of tho community. These efforts nro evi dently about to bo rewarded by tho pass ago of such a measure Stato Senator Varo In a moat commendublo spirit hav ing undertaken to father tho bill. No opposition Is apparent or indeed possible. But tho KvKNiNa IjKvar.n la not con tent to stop tlicro. A stntuto with "teoth" to punish those who dlstrlbuto tho drugs and provision for tho establish ment of a Btnto Institution for tho treat ment of addicts can do much, but not all. Tho question Is essentially n moral nnd rollglous one, nnd cannot bo left entirely to officials nnd agents. And It Is not local. Thoro will bo plenty of ways for drugs to bo smuggled from other States and countries If other Stntos' Legisla tures and Congress do not supplement tho legislation that is to be enacted nt Harrlsbufg. A pioneer In tho work to correct con ditions that became apparent after sec tion 8 of tho Harrison drug net was do ctored unconstitutional wns Mr. J. Hart ley Manners, tho playwright IIo had written "Wrcckngo" to show tho misery of tho mind tortured with drug craving and to urgo tho necessity of first getting tho poison out of tho system beforo self respect could bo restored. Ho had sup posed, with many others, that tho Harri son act would prove a vital blow to tho "dopo" industry. But tho emasculation of tho law, preventing tho punishment of thoso found with largo quantities of drugs on thnlr persons, soon showed that tho fight had hardly begun. He has beon in this city appealing to well-to-do citi zens for tho ondowmont at once of wards in hospitals for tho treatment of addicts, without waiting for tho Stato to provldo this humano tnentmont Whother ho suoceods or not, It Is certain that only by direct attention to tho problem, in Boclal life as well as political, can the law be mado effectlvo. Similar legislation Is patently needed In Now York, whoro tho percentage of addicts to population Is said to bo ovon greater than It is hero. If Now York and Philadelphia aro tho centers of tho drug trnfllo in the East, as Federal authorities assert thoy are, it is tho duty of all the States in this section to stamp out the smuggling at their boundaries. Again tho evil is thus brought to the doors of Congress. It la proposed that a "national clearing house" keep record of all narcotlo drugs coming into tho country. Mr. Manners, as an English man aware of the spread of "doping" In his native land, as tho ugly companion of war miseries, sees it in a national light In England, Parliament would naturally have complete Jurisdiction, and doubtless this new leader in the re form Is Impatient of tho divided author ity which produces piecemeal legislation here. Of course, tho Govornment at Wash ington cannot command the police power of the States and cities. It is, there fore, imperative that the States adjoin ing Pennsylvania and New York and throughout the Union be promptly in formed of the probable effect of stamp ing out tho evil hereabouts. Thousands of drug fiends will not consent to retire to Institutions, Thoy will migrate to tho States where restrictive legislation la not in force. Even tho wide seas will not stop their craving. They will come from abroad, they will come from the ends of tho earth, to ease that sickening' hunger. T1TE WHIPnAND WL HAVE hardly scratched the rail road employes' wage problem. It is a point gained that the brotherhoods will allow the appeals to the courts to proceed without n strike. But tho Juridical phase is comparatively simple" as compared with the complexities pre sented by the many technical readjust ments the railroads can legally adopt without breaking the law, For example, the Pennsylvania Is making experiments with short freight trains to save labor charges. The' long trains require extra men in the crews. The railroads have all the advantage of elasticity in such rearrangements.

JOHN SCOTT, BENEFACTOR How tho Gifts of n Scotch Engineer to This City Havo Accumulated BECAUSE thin Is tho year 1910 thero Js 10,000 to bo added to tho building fund of tho Franklin Institute. Ono hundred years ago, In 1810, John Kcott. chemist, nf St. Patrick's Square, Edinburgh, Scotland, loft to tho city of Philadelphia tho sum of $3000 which was to bo held In trust for ono hundred years, during which tlinoltwns to bo Invested and reinvested At tho end of that tlmo tho earned accumulations were to lio applied In tho samo manner as n fund created In 1790 by Benjamin Franklin, whllo tiro original amount was ngnln to bo Invested and reinvested In trust for another ono hundred years. Ltttlo seems to bo known about John Scott. Thero Is no rcfcrcnco to him In any of tho records of tho Pennsylvania Histor ical Society, notwithstanding tho fnct that ho was tho donor of another, nnd a little larger fund to this city, which was to fol low tho Bamo plan ot Invsstmont and re investment with a distribution of tho accu mulations nt tho end of 100 years. Doth of these funds nro under tho guar dianship and administration of tho Board of Directors of City Trusts. Tho former Is known as tho "John Scott Loan Fund," and' tho latter Is tho "John Scott Medal Fund." This latter fund, which with Its accumu lations amounted to 192,500 on December 31 last, according to tho original deed of trust Is to "bo laid out In premiums to bo distributed among Ingenious men nnd women, who mnk useful Inventions, and along with which shall bo given n copper medal." The Hoard of City Trusts have passed tho administration of this fund over to tho Trustees of tho Franklin Institute, ns they aro In a better position to know men and women who should receivo such awards. Last year six awards wero mado, tho Inventors each receiving frqm tho In stitute a copper medal, a certificate and twenty dollars In gold. A clause In the Franklin deed of trust, which governs tho mnnagment of the John Scott Loan Fund, penults a very wide latt tudo to the Board of City Trusts In tho dls position of the accumulations, and they havo turned over tho J40.000 the nccumu latlons of this fund to the building fund of tho Franklin Institute. This fund on December 31 last amounted to $280,000. With this money tho trustees ot tho Franklin Institute expect to erect n hond somo building on the new Parkway as a monument to perpetuate tho name of Ben jamin Franklin. WOMAN'S BITTER TRAGEDY Men do not, nB a rule, suffer very much from the desire to possess, because they aro so sure that they do possess, because thoy find It so difficult to conceive that their wife can find nny othor man attractive. They are too well accustomed to being courted, even if they nro old and repulsive, because they have power and money; only they think It is because they are men. Beyond a Jealous care for their wives' fidelity, which I suspect arises mainly from tho feeling that nn unfaithful wife Is a criticism, they do npt ask very much. But women suffer more deeply because they know that man has lavished on them for centuries a con descending admiration, that tho king who lays his crown at their feet knows that his is the crown to give. While men possess by right of possession women possess only by right of precarious conquest They feel It very bitterly, this fugitive empire, and their greatest tragedy Is to find themselves growing a llttla older, uncertain of their power, for they know they have only one power J they are afraid as age comes o 'losing their man, while I .have never heard of a husband afraid of losing his wife, or able to repress 'bis surprise If she forsook hlm W, L.
