Was ordered thero wero 8000 unloaded

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.

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.

a point gained that the brotherhoods

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

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

S. C. A. -As early as 1769 Watt turned
his attention to the construction of a steam
carrtago and In 1784 ho was called upon
to repair the model of the Newcomen en
gine In tha cabinet of Olasgow University.
Studying this machine he soon realized Its
defects and lack of efficiency and deter
mined that the losses of heat In tho cylin
der could be corrected and tho Imperfect
method of condensing the steam Improved.
He contrived an Independent condenser
In which steam was exhausted and con
densed after doing Its work on the piston.
Instead of being condensed by a jet of cold
water In the cylinder, as was done In the
Newcomen engine.

PAYING THE PRICE
We are nlwfcrs paying tho prlco for the
things we loso or gain
Out of this life of mingled gladness nnd of
pain;
And whether wo pay for pleasure or
whether wo pay for sin.
It Is always paying tho prlco for life, no
matter whero we begin.
Wo say wo hnvo had a lot we've enjoyed
and we'vo shared In the best;
Wo sit sometimes with a little dream of
old content In tho breast:
And then wo look away and thlnlc'of the
things that were nice,
It all comes over us, lucky or snd, that
we'vo had to pay tho price.
Tho magnate pays for his, oa the pauper
pays It, too;
And tho saint pays ns tho sinner does and
the unsaved have to do;
In nil that wo havo and hold, or In all that
, we'vo thrown away,
It is suro in tho end to come to this that
thero was a price to pay.
Wo pay It for love and peace, for cheer
and comfort nnd song;
Wo pay for slnnnlng and going astray, we
pay It for doing wrong;
In aU that wo aro or seem, In gladness or
grief or pain.
We are always paying the price for the
things that we lose or gain.

NATIONAL POINT OF VIEW
Some changes should bo made In the
present feystem. For Instance, It could be
provided that in case of death or resigna
tion, tho surviving electors from a State
should be empowered to choose a successor.
But tho safeguards of tho older system
should not be thrown away because of the
attitude of "wntchful waiting" that Califor
nia recently required of the rest of the
nation. Cincinnati Times-Star.
It Is reported that Colonel Roosevelt Is
going off to explore somo wild country. But
couldn't ho learn a lot about his own coun
try by a quiet journey out West Incognito?
New York Evening Post.
Several newspnpers which were so Im
patient as to award the presidency to Mr.
HuKlies rathor than await full returns have
made the suggestion that It Is the first duty
of Congress upon reassembling to propose
an amendment to the Constitution abolish
ing tho system of voting by electors and
providing for the election of President by
iuu mrcci voto oi mo people. This sugges
tion also Is the child of Impatience and loose
thinking. .Washington Post.
