New York estimates that the Army

No matter what tho rest of the

AN EYE-OPENER
rpHB fact that tho city needs tho money,
If It Is to remain solvent, Is n good
enough reason for Increasing tho tax
rate. Hut why does tho city neod tho
money?
Suppose Alba B. Johnson had been ad
ministering city affairs for ten years nnd
had been nblo to direct them as he hns
directed tho affairs of tho Unldwln I,oco
mollvo Company. Wo should bo facing- a
lower Instead of'n higher rate nnd would
havo behind us. In nddltlon, a record of
public Improvements that woud bo In
spiring. Thero nro a hundred, nyo a thousand,
men in Philadelphia who would bo superb
municipal directors. They do not get of
fice, nnd it they did they would havo to
work with a crowd of soulid ward politi
cians. How much of tho city rovonuo Is ut
terly wasted In different forms of graft
wo do not know, but If soventy-flvo per
cent of tho expenditures produces results
It is remarkable.
Thin piling on of taxes may bo a bless
ing in disguise. It ought to open tho eyes
of citizens, high and low, who havo been
blindly supporting tho gang nnd Its gen
erations of extravagance
Wouldn't it bo a flno thing, for In
stance. If tho next Mayor woro neither n

NEIGHBORS
IT IS hard for a partisan nnd most men
aro oxtremo partisans to forgot tho
Inbci. Tho test of a lino mind might well
ba to ask of a mnn, "Do you always think
of so-and-so as a Republican, or of so-and-so
as a Democrat?" If ho can forget, ho's
exceptional. Thero is something memor
ablo about these two letters exchanged by
old neighbors:
My dear Mr. Vlco President I will
nvnll mys.lt of tlio p.irllcst opportunity
since tho ascertainment of tho Cali
fornia voto to extend to ynn my cordial
personal congratulations upon your re
election ns Vlco President. My very
nest ujsiich go with you always.
Dear Mr. Knlrbnnkr 1 thank you
sincerely for our kind letter of con
gratulation. As a partisan It Is worth
much to know that wo have, won. Ah
a man It Is worth moro to know that
tho years of personal friendship have
not ended with this campaign, and to
feci that thero aro left a few mon at
least who may differ in politics nnd
yit wish each other well. I rcjolco to
believe that you nlwnys have been of
that chosen few. Long hfo nnd screno
content for jou.
Mr. Fairbanks nnd Mr. Marshall havo
received more than their share of criti
cism, nbuso nnd misunderstanding. Theio
nro thousands of men In tho country who
would havo Inspired moro confldcnco na
first in lino of succession to tho presi
dency. But there nro very few who could
put Just that Hlncero noto Into their corre
spondence. SERVANTS
IT WILIi bring down n m
lng load of abuso upon
most humlliat-
our devoted
hend, but ti Is hard to refrain from ex
pressing a measure of satisfaction that
servants aro In demand and ratlior rare
in supply. But, really, higher wages tend
to Improve nny class of lnbor. Wo hear
your groans of protest, hut Insist on con
sidering tho matter In a. Inrgo and gen
eral way, with n view to tho future, and
not In connection with your Immcdlato
troubles, which may, for till you know,
be qulto exceptional.
Properly speaking, thero aro no serv
ants In America. Wo had slaves. later
we had foreigners. But it Is now out of
fashion to bo a forolgnor. Hyphcnlsm
did that. We let our eagle screech Amer
icanism Into every kitchen window till
peoplo who wore born east of Atlantic
City havo qomo to conceal tho fact ns If
It woro bloody treason.
Wo havo employes and what Is called
a workIngydny. Men havo heard tho call
of tho munitions factory and havo left
elevator, pantry, stablo nnd sweatshop
by tho thousands. Women nnd youths
have Ailed in whero possible The rush
to apartments, whero the maid comes for
certain hours and leaves In the evening,
is tho tout of an army whose kltchon
baso of service and supplies has been cut
off. What we want to happen Is not that
domestic employment disappear, but that
It be Immensely Improved.
Tho tendency might be thus epigram
matlred: To make good domestic em
ployes out of good Bcamstressos, and to
make good seamstresses out of poor serv
ants. WHAT MONEY CAN'T BUY
SOME things cannot bo bought for
money, as Mr. and Mrs. James Punk
hurst, of Amboy, III., havo discovered.
They offered $10,000 to bo paid ut their
death to any t&tlsfactory young woman
who would live with them and take care
ot them to the end. They secured a girl
from Chicago, who thought she was will
ing to meet tho conditions. She has dis
covered that' (10,000 is not enough to pay
her for what was required; that Is, celi
bacy and care ot two old people
But there aro hundreds, it not thou
sands, of young women who are doing for
nothing in this State that for which this
Chicago girl was to rocelve a considerable
sum. There is doubtless no reader of this
article who Is not acquainted with one
or more girls who are living at home
and taking care of the old folks Just be
cause they need her care. Some of them
are supporting a widowed mother or an
invalid father with uncomplaining devo
tion. And thero are young men equally
UMeUieto.
No meow oould buy this service and
iw moaey tould pay for it. The fact that
U i 94wJ freely U one of the things

WHY NEGROES DON'T VOTE
To the Editor of tha livening Ledger:
Sir After reading your editorial. "Be
Fair to the South," I have been trying to
recall tho schemes resorted to by the va
rious States to restrict tho ncrro vote. My
wlfo asked tho "how?" nnd though I've
read from time to time of Its being done, I
couldn't fully tell her how they got aroUnd
the Fifteenth Amendment to tho Constitu
tion. I know the way Isn't the samo In
all tho States, but I couldn't nnswer ljer
question ns I wanted to. Plcnse Inform me,
and oblige, H. S.
Philadelphia, November 27.
The "grandfather clause" was declared
unconstitutional by tho United States Su
preme Court several - - ago. It was
Indirectly tho instrument ot disfranchise
ment. Many of the Southern States Imposed
strict property and educational qualifica
tions for voters. Tho effect was to dis
franchise thousands of whites as well as
blacks. The additional provision, however,
that no man should be disqualified whose
father or grandfather had boen a legal
voter, say. In 1867, allowed Illiterate whites
to retain their vote. The disfranchisement
of blacks Is accomplished now entirely by
means of property nnd educational tests,
together with a certain "social pressure"
that keeps blacks away from the polls. By
general consent In the South the whites
fight their political differences out In pri
maries and unite thereafter to support In
the regular election the primary nominees.

GIVING THANKS
To tha Editor of the Evening Ledger:
Sir "It is a good thing to give thanks
unto the Iird." realms, xcil. 1. There are
perhaps few people In the world whose con
ditions, or circumstances aro so unfortu
nate but that thero are others even more
unfortunate. Without any appearance,
therefore, of being Pharisaical, a vast ma
jority can glvo thanks that they are not as
others are. This probably holds true not
only In the llfo of tho individual, but In
that of the nation as well, and la especially
applicable at this timo In the life ot our
own nation as compared with those nations
In tho ngonlea of war.
'These thoughts suggested themselves to
my mind In contemplating the near ap
proach of our national Thanksgiving, when
we are enjoined to give thanks for the
peace and prosperity which has been be
stowed upon our own country, and at the
same time think of the distress of those In
war-stricken Kurope. liven though there
are those among us, who perhaps tor their
own Belf-glorlflcatlon, or aggrandizement,
think this country shoula bo at war, we
have abundant reason to be devoutly
thankful that we are, broadly speaking, at
peace with all the world; that our fair
land has not been drenched with tjood, and
that we are but Indirectly sharing In the
responsibility of such being the case In
other lands. When, however, it comes to
giving thanks for our prosperity, and we
take Into consideration the part we are
playing In the great war drama now being
enacted upon the stages of Kurope, and
the fact that our much vaunted prosperity
U so largely due to that titanic struggle, it
would seem that those who are the direct
beneficiaries ot that conflict would find it
difficult to give thanks tor tnelr prosperity
without a considerable qualm of conscience.
Then there are hosts of others, whose In
come has not kept pace with the Increase In
the cost of living, to whom the apparent
prosperity ot the country Is but phantom
or a vision, as it were, beyond their grasp,
and who, therefore, cannot well give
thanks without some degree ot mental
reaert at(on.

others, let us hope that all will endeavor
to make tho beat of their opportunities In
making not only themselves, but others
happy nnd nblo to glvo thanks Tor tho
blessings they enjoy. And ns thl3 Thanks

ories gradually fade from our minds, nnd

event, ulik'li should bn n Kenson of uni

SOCIAL REVOLUTION
To the Editor of the Evening Ledger:
Sir If the railroad managers of the
country really try to stop the enforcement
of tho Adamsou law they will simply provo
themselves to ba a pack of iRnoramiiben.
In 0 far as their rthlcal conception of the
future Is concerned, ut least. They cannot
nny moro make void tho legislative essence
of that law than they could turn republican
America back Into a monarchy. For their
own good and for the good of ua nil, they
had better soon be duly Impressed with tho
fact inut they and their kind can gain un
Immeasurably larger amount of real profit
In the end by Intelligently anticipating tho
host of Mmllo'r laws which nro to como,
rather thnn by bigoted ly encouraging an
opposition which will powerfully tend to
fashion the times when such Institutions
shall be established by Bheer force in the
hands ot tho labor element. So let theso
powers that be In our land with wisdom
submit to tho great economic changes which
are surely and Inevitably coming upon us,
bnckod up by the resistless might of awak
ening nnd arising forces which no power
or combination of "power on oirth could
ever permanently withstand.

Dnnbury Hatters
U. C. The Dnnbury hatters' capo grew
out ot a strike by union hatters employed
by D. E. Loewe & Co., of Dnnbury, Conn.,
In July, 1D02. Tho following year tho com
pany brought suit against Martin l.awler
nnd S39 other members of the United Hal
ters of North America for maintaining a
boycott In violation ot tho Sherman anti
trust law. Tho defenso was taken up by
tho American Federation of Labor, while
the prosecution wns supported by tho Antl
Iloycott Society of America. In 1908 tho
Supremo Court hnnded down a verdict of
Interpretation, In which It wa maintained
that the acts charged constituted a viola
tion ot tho Sherman law. Late in 1009, in
the United States District Court at Hart
ford, a Jury rendered n verdict for tho plain
tiff of $74,000. Treble damages wcro
awarded in occordanco with the Sherman
law. This verdict was set aside by the
Court of Appeals, but in a now trlnl the
Jury, lato In 1912, rendered a verdict for
the plaintiff of $80,000 and costs, this sum
being trebled. Tho case was then taken to
the United States Circuit Court of Appeals,
which, on December 18, affirmed tho Judg
ment of the lower court. The plaintiff got
total damages of $272,000.
