CURFEW LAW FOR LAUGHING PURPOSES ONLY.
Laws passed by a legislative body, which the makers know will not be

Last nignt tne uary common council acted wisely when it killed the
curfew ordinance. A curfew law is the product of bygone days and an in

; Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE.
A DECLARATION OF INDEPENDANCE.
The prevailing custom of seeking to suppress news in a newspaper has eexhausted the patience of the editor of the Oakland City (California) Jour
nal. In a recent issue of that paper the editor says: If you violate the law you need not ask the Journal to suppress the news, because it will not be done. Court records are public property and of public concern. If you don't want the news published when it concerns you, you will have to quit making news that the public is interested in.
The fact Is that the "suppression" of news Is the greatest stumbling
block in the making of a newspaper. The smaller paper the greater the evil. The publisher of a country weekly cannot call his life his own; the
"suppressers" to get a strangle hold even in the smaller cities. Of course, the poor and uninfluential do not have a show when loss of a subscription- or two ceases to be a threat worth considering, is only the individual with the "pull" that can conceal his movements.
the smaller cities the printing of almost any kind of news i attended with threats and possibly acts of retribution which are calculated to destroy the
prosperity of the newspaper.
In a metropolis the request for "suppression" of news is frequent, the granting of the request is rare, says the Joliet Herald. A demand would be greeted with amazement and peremptory refusal. The metropolitan newspapers are able to carry out their irarlied obligations to their readers to give them all the news. In the smaller cities the very people who are first to complain of their newspapers are those who are the first to demand the suppression of the same news regarding their affairs that they want to read regarding the affairs of others. The revolt from Oakland is justified.

The Evening Chit-Chat By RUTH CAMERON
"In quiet country places one may be poor, very poor, without much conscious suffering. But in a city, if one knows anything at all of the possibilities of civilized life, of the Joys and comforts of good food, clothing and shelter, of theater and concert and excursion, of entertaining and being entertained, poverty becomes a hell. In the country the innocent people wonder at the greediness of tha more comfortable kind of city folks, at their love of money, their incessant dwelling upon it, their reverence for those who have it, their panic-like flight from those who have it not. Let them be careful how they Judge. If
you discover any human being acting anywhere as1 you think a human being should not, investigate all the circumstances, look thoroughly Into all the causes of his or her conduct before you condemn him or her as Inhuman, utiworthy of your kinship and your sympathy." David Graham Phillips. The Too o passage from David Graham Phillips' new novel "The Grain of Dust." I recommend to everyone who thinks himself a lover of fair play and the square deal to read over three times and then think about. Especially the last sentence. I think that sentence would make an excellent working motto for any of us u !.o aro inclined to be critical of others to paste up on our desks, or better still. In our hearts. , , Only I'd like to add a little to it. ''Investigate all in his or her conduct before you condemn him or her" and then make further allowances for a difference in inborn character and will
power and strength of desires between you and the one you would judge, and acknowledge your entire Inability to say "If I were what he is I would not have done that." How one man dares Judge another, bad or good, no matter what the circumstances are, I cannot understand, for surely accomplishment is not the
only measure of goodness. Must not the tools each nne has to start with and the obstacles he must encounter also be remembered in the reckoning? And who can Judge these things for each one of us but our own souls? Or stay can even we ourselves Judge ourselves? being as we are without any measure of other men's temptations and strength to Judge our own by? For instance, how can the most highly respected member of the community dare to think that he is any better than the convict, ignorant as ne is how his own God-given power to combat temptation and tha
strength of his own desires compares with the convicts. The attempt to judge any human being seems to me like trying to solve "A plus B equals C" without having stand for. " Who shall say but whan the Divine Knowledge that understands each of us and holds the measure in his hands shall Judge us. He shall say to the convict, "With the obstacles of circumstances and the environment with which I handicapped you, with enfeebled body and mind and will bequeathed from generations of unfit ancestors that I gave j-ou , you struggled well." and to the most highly respected mem'ler of the community, "Of splendid conditions of environment and opportunities, of the healthy body and brain nad will power thaot I bestowed upon you you have made but halt what you should. Who knows' Nobody. Isn't it wisest then, "If you discover a human being anywhere acting as a human being should not, to investigate all of the circumstances, look thoroughly into all the causes of his conduct" before you condemn him, and then remembering that there are yet other factors in the equation that you cannot find out, to still fail to condemn.
