jj of the National Farm j-chool
JL frmhllshrd four years ago
at DoylcMoun, thin state, on
IWrlncffJny of last work received tlielr
diploma? and listened to nn addre5 by
Hon. James Wilson, the' I'nlled States
f.ecrHary of HSilriiltuie.
The ejpeclal thin? that makes this
erhonl of Interest Is that It Is a Jewish
fohool, founded by them for members
of their own race, with the avowed
Intent "to brine the Hebrew back to
the tilling of the Kiound."
Five hundred Bursts went out by
special train from Philadelphia with
Secretary Wilson and Rev. Joseph
Kraupkopf. of the Temple Kenes th
Israel. Says one report, through a
four years' rourse the graduates have
ftudled farming as farming- ran best
he studied and the splendidly tilled
fleldr. of the U'2-acre farm, Its well kept
Mahles, barn and dairy, poultry
houses and green-houses all attest the
amount of real woik the pupils have
done. ,
Secretary Wilson referred to 'the
t-ensihle and thorough manner In which
the children of Israel do everything
they undertake, and without help from
federal or state sources," and expressed
the hope that this school will have a
reflex Influence In stimulating many
state-aided Institutions to better woik.
He spoke of the greater Interest shown
of late hy the people of a latge
number of the states and territories In
scientific agricultural research work
that the agricultural department Is co
operating In. He earnestly welcomed
this new reinforcements of "the sons
of Jacob" In advancing the agricultural
development of the country. In one
passage he said:
"The Jew Is a thoroughbred, with a
history running back to the time when
Ahraham dwelt In Vv of the t'haldees,
and has a pedigree compaied with
which modern family trees are bramble
bushes. He can look back over the
centuries and note the effect of occu
pation on his race. Other races con
cede his mental acutenet-s to deter
mine what Is good for his people. He
has been denied the privilege of own
ing the soil by many short-sighted
governments, bu 'His love of the soil
is deathles.' to us-e the expression of
one of the founders of this Institution.
He desiies to restore the physical vigor
of the nice where it requires it. by
returning to the early vocation of ita
founder. It Is wisely resolved that
young men be educated in the sciences
and aits i elating to agriculture, and
money Is contributed for that purpose
by far-seelnc and good-hearted men.
No Investment ever made ny a people
will pay like this one, and that Is a
venturesome saying In this presence."
Another report mentions that "this
school is said to differ from other agri
cultural Institutions In that the prac
icul features are given the gteater
prominence, and that boys as soon as
they huv passed through the giant
mar t'r.'idfs of the public schools are
admitted, a clear gain of four years."
The political reform movement that
has John Wanamaker on Its front
tt.il will always be picturesque, but
i t will never be convincing.
A Look Before Leaping.
ACC'ORDlNil to special cable
dispatches sent over from
London, the Indefinite post
ponement" of the marriage,
let for the tenth of July, between Miss
Vivian Sartorls, granddaughter of
President-Oram, and Archibald Bal
our. coupln -Qfttio Tory leader of the
house ofT commons, came from the
fact thatVthe two had each "decided
opinions jnj could agree on few
:hlngs of. .Importance" that "their
luarrels had been frequent, their en
ragementyWoken more than on-e," but
:he tioubles. "were as frequently
jatched up through the good offices of"
:he lady, at whose houre they had
Irst met.; ., .
Under euch cirsumstances It would
eem that the "otllces" of the lady
In question were more to too called
mischievous than "good," for there
(va certainly no prospect of hupplness
n married life for such an engaged
:ouple. ho dispatch remarks that
the lircaklng off of the marriage, even
-t this late d'ii after the Invitations
to the wedding wore issued and Hu
minutest rjetalla arranged, la "generally
regarded "Jas a triumph of common
tense."
It was ja little late for "common
ene" to come to the rescue, hut this
Particular couple are to be congratu
lated that It was not quite too late
n Its etrlval. Records of the all too
sretly crowded divorce courts, and
the history of a very regrettable num
ber of "marital Infelicities," where the
married pair endure eagb pther, point
:" "walthe wisdom of giving "com-
mon sense" Its Innings where, too of
ten, false pride prevails In Inducing
people to go on Into marriage after
the more Intimate knowledge of each
other that comes with engagement haa
shown that their only prospect of hap
piness lies In deciding to go their sep
arate ways Instead,
For this reason It Ia worth while to
quote "the explanation given by rela
tives" of Miss Sartorls and Mr. Bal
four of why that wedding Is "off." It
will supply n "precedent" that may
prevent some other misfit alliances.
Three months' pleasant work for a
four years course In college Is The
Tribune's educational contest proposi
tion, boiled down. Was there ever ft
more liberal one?
m
The Men for the Navy,
A FEW weeks ago appeared
the announcement of the ut
ter apathy shown by the
naval mllltla organizations
of various states, those of the Atlantic
and Pacific coast states alike, their
failure to respond, by acceptance of
any of the nnvv department's plans
to old the organizations In education
and training, to the government's In
terest In them.
The plans proposed Included the tak
ing of naval mllltla men to sea In
any one of the naval vessels, the cruise
of each command to occupy n fort
night, under supervision of naval ofll
rers and with the assistance of en
listed men in the navy. Naturally, the
navy department supposed that men
who had voluntarily entered a "naval
mllltla" organization would take n
lively Interest In such nn oifeted op.
portunlty to learn the duties they
might bo called upon to fulfill.
The result of the utter indirference
manifested has been the decision of
the navy department that It will take
no farther tinuble about such h mllltla
as that. Announcements from Wash
ington are to the effect that the de
partment's estimates to congress next
year will not Include the sum of $60,
000 which for several years has been
asked, given and distributed by the
navy deparment among the naval mlll
tla organizations.
In the presence of such a state of
affairs, there Is rlouhle force In the
recent suggestion of the Annapolis
acedemy board that congress Miall
double the number ot cadets at that
Institution. Not so very long ago
congress added ninety to the number
of cadets at West Point. Yet this
country has reached a point In Its
history when It has, and will continue
to have, far more need of a full sup
ply of perfectly trained otllccrs of
all grades for the navy than of those
for the army. The National Uuaid,
moreover, not only In all emergencies
has supplied men who have some dt ill
and training for active work in war,
but has given some good ofticers to the
service.
The naval mllltla, It is evident, Is
not going to render any such service
to the navy. That makes clear the
larger need of thoroughly trained na-
1 oiriceis. and enough of them, to
train and to command the men who
enlist. Over and over again, within
the last three years the country has
heard of one and another war vessel
put out of commission In order to se
cure oflicers for one of the new ves
sels. We go on building new battleships,
cruisers and torpedo boats, knowing
that there Is u necessity for a navy
adequate to protect our commerce, to
preserve peace often by Its efllclency,
to make swift end of war should war
be forced on us. But what use Is It
to enlarge the nation's complement of
war vesselswithout seeing- to providing
enough thoroughly trained ofllccra of
every rank to make each and every
vessel efllclent oflicers who know
every detail of duty and how to train
as well as to command seamen? The
suggestion of the Annapolis academy
board Is one to which the next congress
should give heed, and should not be
allowed to "forget" it until It has
taken action.
A word from the president would
end the demoralizing gabble over the
pension commlsslonershlp, and he
should speak it.
The Act of 1804.
T'J THK LAY mind It does seem
singular notwithstanding
the piling up of laws and
court decision that so Im
portant an act as that passed by the
first United States congress on May
26, 1780. approved by Washington;
amended by congress Murch 27, 1S04,
and approved by Jefferson, should
have passed out of the recollection of
bench and bar for many years as
constitutional lawyers are now saying.
It Is evident their saying Is conect.
But when the whole Philippine sover
eignty question was forced upon tho
United States by the logic of events
when the "antl-lmperiallsts" shut their
eyes against the undeniable truth that
Piesldent Jefferson, whom they had
been citing as their own, was the
strongest "Imperialist" that the coun
try has ever known that ho not only
added "an empire" to this country,
but ruled that emplro by executive
power, as the records show when these
things came to pass, It was natural for
the people to suppose that "bar and
bench" would Inform themselves thor
oughly on the history of that time.
Certainly If the members of the Su
preme court of tho United States, in
their search for what the framers of
the Constitution meant it to cover, had
read the net of 1780, and Its amended
form of 1801, thero could not have
been so wide divergence of "opinions"
In their late decision.
Hero Is tho second section of tho act
of March, 1801:
"And be it further enacted that nil
the provisions of this act and of tho
act of which this Is a supplement shall
apply as well to the public nes, rec
ords, ofllces, oiilce books, Judicial pro
ceedings, court and olllcera of the re
spective territories of the United States
and countries subject to the Jurisdic
tion of the United States as to the
public acts, records, ofllces, office books,
judicial proceedings, courts and officers
of the several etates. Approved Ma 'h
27, 1801."
. That Is, according to the Judgment of
men who were "themselves of those who
helped to frame the Constitution, and
others who were In Immediate touch
with them, In tho congress of the Uni
ted States, legislating there fbr the
country, they declared that their legis
lation "shall apply" not only to "the
several states," not only also to "the
respective territories of the United
Stntes," but also to "countries subject
to the Jurisdiction of the United
States."
It Is not needful hero to recapitulate
the details of the quest Into the stat
utes of Texas which led Mr. Benjamin
R. Curtis hack to the statutory law
of this land from the adoption of the
Federal Constitution. It Is enough
that he did find this which we have
Just quoted, and that "tho constitution
al lawyers" of the country nro busily
discussing It, and "the Importance to
tho counsel representing- the govern
ment in tho Insular cases recently
passed upon by the Supreme court had
the discovery been made In time for
the Information It contained to have
been available to the attorney gen
eral." "Countries subject to tho Juris
diction of the United States" in addi
tion to the "several states" and to "the
respective territories of the United
Slates" were expected then; and pro
vision was made for their government
by congress as "subject territory," In
the very earliest years of tho existence
of the United States as an Independent
government.
If the discovery did not come In time
to Inform tho Judges of the Supreme
eourt, It Is In good time to Inform pub
lic opinion as to what the framers of
the Constitution and their nssoclates
In political life meant their own Inter
pretation of the powers of this govern
ment in precisely such a ease as has
arisen, nearly a century later, in our
acquisition of Porto Rico and tho
Philippines.
The bravery of the Boers, now
everywhere recognized, should no
longer bo tarnished by the madness
of a useless resistance. It is time to
trade the rifle for the hoe.
More Notes flbotif
the Pan-American
IT IS RATHKR Interesting to a
Ser.intonlan, to whom naturally
tho Lackawnna railroad Is a sat
isfaction, to hear the various com
ments concerning railroad travel to
and from the Pan-American exposi
tion. There seem to be two rather
general opinions overheard In these
conversations, namely, "We are so
glad we took the Lackawanna," and
"We are so sorry we came hy some
other route." You will often hear In
quiries as la tho possibility of ox
changing tickets with somebody In or
der to reiurn by the road which is so
praised. On one point there Is univer
sal agreement the freedom from dust.
A young woman was heard expatiat
ing to a grimy-looklng- lriend on the
felicity of riding on the observation
car. He had apparently Just landed,
and with a mixture of what looked
like lampblack and freshly-cooked as
phalt over his countenance was be
wailing his discomfort. Couldn't
have a blamed window up," ho grum
bled, "all the way. I went Into the
smoker and almost sat on the engine
so that I wouldn't get so much soot,
but we had to keep the windows shut
there. A fellow told 1110 not to wipe
my face so much, as the soft coal
cinders made streaks like comets, and
o blow them off instead. I'd like to
know," with line scorn, "how you're
going to hlow a big, fat cinder off
your own eyebrow. So I suppose I've
got the comets."
"Yes, you have." assented the girl
sadly, and she glanced apprehensively
at a young woman who nccompanfed
her and who had apparently been
coached beforehand as to the good
looks of the man In question. He
certainly did resemble a brigand. She
then continued:
"There was h woman In the Penn
sylvania building today who told me
she could spot those who didn't come
from Pittshurg because they were
always washing their faces and ap
pealing so unhappy when they were
dirty. Pittsburg1 people were not thus
disturbed over conditions so familiar.
It's about the same way with people
who come in by the Lackawanna.
When you see them with a lot of
bags and umhrellas. you know at
once whether they have traveled by
that road,"
o
They are telling a good story Just
now about F. P. Cox, tho handsome
division passenger agent, of Buffalo,
one of the few of the old regime who
held over with the present administra
tion. He was at the Iroquois the
other day and was being- reviled by a
party of friends, who declared that
the local ofnclals of both the Lehigh
A'alley and the New York Central
railroads were claiming the engraving
on the Pan-American postage stamps
as representing the Empire state and
the Black Diamond engines. "Hm!"
remarked Mr. Fox placidly; "Do you
suppose we'd claim a picture of an
engine for a minute that made as
much smoke as that? Let 'em claim
her." And he waved his cigar con
temptuously toward the postage
stamp In question, with its pinky bor
der. Few who travel much on our roads
In the vicinity of Scranton realize the
absolute unhappiness which can be
Induced by riding ufter a soft coal
locomotive In this extremely hot
weather, thus It Is not surprising that
New York people crowd the Lacka
wanna cars and that It Is difficult
to get a berth or a chair between Ho
boken and Buffalo without engaging
one In advance. The exquisite scenery
all the way from the quiet loveliness
ot tho streams and wide meadows of
Jersey, to tho majestic sublimity of
the towering mountains at the Water
Oap, the wild beauty and tho refresh
ing air of tho Pocono, must bo a con
tinual delight to those familiar or un
familiar with this Infinite variety In
tho landscape. Then from Scranton
on, tho charming glimpses of nature
nil tho way to BInghamton are a Joy
forever, where the wide, splendid
river und the rich green of hill and
valley Intrance the eye, whllo beyond
Ho the wondrous lights and shadows
on the purple mountains nbout Dans
vllle; the alluring views afar to tho
northward and tho changeful richness
of the Illimitable distance In Western
New York. To enjoy that daylight
trip from the rear of nn observation
car on a Lackawanna train all the
way from Now York to Buffalo, Is to
see something of our country which
makes one glad to be alive,
o
The government exhibit at the Pan
American Is said to be the best ever
displayed at an exposition. The build
ing Is .magnificent, and the" opportun
ities for gaining- Information -nn points
of history and also on up-to-date mat
ters connected with our nation nre
plentiful and Important. The models of
warships nnd the relief maps, shoeing
up our new possessions, arc surrouitded
constantly by throngs of spectators.
Among the Interesting features In the
Machinery und Transportation building"
Is one under the charge of Mr. Miles
Traeey Hand, son of Hon. Alfred Hand,
of this city. It is the exhibit of the
Philadelphia Pneumatic Tool company
and comprises a lot of appnrently very
useful Implements. Being- a mere wo
man, I am not supposed to understand
the complications of this outfit. I was
very much Impressed, however, with
the fact that Mr. Hand's machine shop
makes tho most racket of anything: In
the entire place, and that among the
accomplishments which the apparatus
on display Is a blast of cold air, which
makes ninny friends for tho manipu
lator these hot days. It It. nice and
convenient to have pneumatic tools. All
you hnve to do is to attach a rubber
hose to a little steel contrivance and
you can whittle shavings off a bis slab
of steel (they don't call It a slab, but
that Is what It Is); drill holes In al
most anything, and pound rivets with
more celerity nnd noise than ten men.
Then another tool-thing over in the
corner plays in a sand bank, and
pounds It down very Industriously at a
miraculous rnte of speed, while still
another pulls up things to almost any
height and drops them where they will
do the most good. I should think Mr.
Hand's pneumatic tools would be nice
to use In executions of murderers. Ills
establishment. In nn Importnnt corner
of the building, Is thronged by wise
men who want to know about every
thing. A Russian count and other
notabes are among his frequent visit
ors. Mr. Hand and his wife are enjoying
the summer In Buffalo, where they will
stay until the exposition closes.
-II. C. P.
To Wage Earners
and Others of
Moderate Income
Do not spend your money foolishly
because you have so little of it. but
save what you can from month to
month and Invest It in something that
will multiply many fold. The mil
lionaires' of this section were laboring
m-n h generation ago and they pur
sued this course whllo most of their
comrades blew It all In. Tho pru
dent ones saw that fuel was a good
thing, that tho world had lo. have
It, and they bought coal land, a little
at a time as they could spare It, and
It has made them rich, and their fami
lies live and will live In the greatest
comfort, while the descendants ot
their Imprudent comrades are labor
ing as their fathers did for day)
wages.
Keep this object lesson In mind.
The opportunities of that earlier time
were In coal, today greater opportuni
ties exist in oil. which Is fuel In a
more concrete form and Is rapidly
supplanting coal, because It Is easier
and cheaper to mine and handle, and
Is, besides being a more economic
fuel for nil large consumers, profit
able for a hundred other uses. Tho
oil of California Is furnishing that
state with cheap fuel, for the lack of
which her progress has been woefully
retarded. The entire Pacific coast
will consume oil as a fuel, so that
the demand upon the oil fields of Cali
fornia is unlimited. California oil
refiners will hold the markets of the
far East nnd of the west coast of
South America. It Is plain to bo seen
that tho oil fields of California will
be tho source of Incalculable wealth,
far beyond what the coal mines of
Pennsylvania have been In the past.
All thoughtful men can see that the
thing to do now to make money is
to buy the shares of conservative, re
putably managed oil companies hav.
Ing large holdings of undoubted oil
lands secured at low prices, and only
requiring development to become the
source of enormous revenues for
shorfholders.
The PACIFIC COAST AND TEXAS
OIL COMPANY has In the most Im
portant oil fields managers of ability
and Integrity and of the highest prac
tlcal qualifications for their business,
nnd the shares of this company are
today, without doubt, the best Invest,
ment obtainable. These shares would
be cheap at 40c. but are- selling for
the time being at 20c per share, to
procure money to bore the first wells.
The price Is sure to advance rapidly
to keep pace with tho developments
on tho company's lands and on ad
Joining lands. The market value of
the lands Is constantly advancing. Do
not delay making nn Investment In
this stock. As to tho value of this
oil property and the character and
ability of Its managers this company
refers, by , permission, to the presi
dent of the Broadway Bank and
Trust company, of Los Angeles, Cal.
