THE NEW MURRAY The New Murray Theater is to be noticed not only aa a very creditable private enterprise, but also as a sign Of the Increased progressivenesa of Richmond. The new theater is worthy of the new town. The high class of the performances are in keeping with the town and the theater itself. Mr. Murray is to be congratulated ; for his public spirit expressed in his private enterprise in furnishing Richmond with an up-to-date theater with up-to-date attractions. That has very much to do in the good looks and the good name of the town.

THE MAJORITY "You can not have a decent popular government unless that majority can conquer Itself; that is, unless that majority exercises the self restraint that men with great power ought to exer else. I could call your attention to a good many Instances whMV those who are in favor of popular gov eminent, and who, if I may use the expression, pull the tail feathers out of the eagle in deifying liberty and apostrophising everything that we thirk . dear, and yet just as soon as they become & majority they think that slreo them the light to control the minority absolutely, and if the minority show any disposition to question It they send them to jail." The above words of President Taft In his sermon last Sunday as applied to telf government are worth the serious consideration of Americans. We whose whole government is for the moat part one whole scheme of majorities, ought, by right, to pay more attention to that article of faith, "the will of the majority rules." Ordinarily, we hear the other side, "the minority must abide by the decision." Which, though obvious, is not always good government If the virw is taken that the minority has just as important a function in governmentthen the minority is deserving of more attention. Not only is this tma in whole countries, but In the consideration of dependencies and territories which ar ruled by the government. It it a question which arose in the consideration of the reconstruction of the Southern states just after the war, and a question which still obtains con-' corning the Solid South. If the minority Is to be considered ot all the majority must exercise self-restraint From that proceeds cot only the true beginning of liberty, but government It is undeniable that a majority run loose ts little better than a

factor of danger that any republican or democratic government has to deal with. " The mob finished Athens and Rome. The majority, when not run into the mob, is at least heading that way.

NEWSPAPER FALLIBILITY Now and again it is worth gratification that a tired proof reader looks over an edition with only a blunder or two charged up against the account. Many a thing is railroaded when "thirty is on the hook." And It is therefore that the copy reader and the proof reader give a sigh approaching a prayer of thanksgiving when there Is not an outraged subscriber who calls up the paper in an anguished toat. The public will believe that all such blunders can be escaped. They will believe that the newspaper does not do these things intentionall, until the mistake happens to hit them. Therefore the words of the New York Evening Poet are as lam on the jangled nerves: "When we consider that Hudson did not discover New York bay. but that Verrazzano did; when we consider that Fulton did not invent the steamboat, but that Fitch did; when we consider that Bell did not invent the telephone, that Morse did not invent the telegraph, that Gutenberg did net invent the printing press, that Morton did not discover anaesthesia, that Dar win did not discover evolution, that Shakespeare did not write "Hanjlet." that Homer did not write the "Iliad " that Galileo did not say "And still it moves," that Wellington did not say "Up guards and at them," that Washington did not win the battles of the revolution, that Robespierre did not create the reign of terror, that Nero was not a monster, that Cleopatra was not beautiful when we reflect that history is emblazoned with the titles of usurpers and that true merit lies unchronicled in the grave, let us address a word or two of apology to that much berated enemy of the truth, the newspaper. If history, with a thousand years' leisure at her disposal, cannot find out just who set up a new throne or pulled down an old one, let us forgive the reporter if he misspells the Christian name of the prominent citizen who was thrown from his automobile at 2:30 a. m."

Editor Palladium: After nearly 22 years' practical Insight into the management and everyday work of, first St. Stephens, and later our magnificent Reid Memorial Hospital, the writer assumes, without tho knowledge or consent of the management of the Hospital, or any other person for that matter, that he has a right to "speak out in meeting," hence, asks that you kindly allow a small space In your valuable columns for a few remarks concerning a statement appearing in the Palladium, and also in tho Morning News, a few days ago, to the effect that the city attorney had been informed by the Sheriff, and by whom the Sheriff hafcJ been informed', and who his informant was, and who told him, etc., etc.. the deponent further sayeth not, "that a sick charity patient had been refused admission to

PILES Quickly Cured

Reid Memorial Hospital." Now the undersigned ventures, on his own responsibility wholly, to say that such scandalous publicity, without accompanying bona fide evidence to substantiate the same, is a cruel scandal on one of Richmondfs most meritorious institutions, and either a retraction, or the unimpeachable facts proving this statement, should be given the same publicity as the original. Furthermore, I assert that this statement was made, either with a total ignorance of the simplest rules governing all properly managed hospitals, or else with malice latent towards an institution that each and every good and desirable citizen of Richmond should Justly speak of in kindness, and with pride. Either uphold Richmond's many and meritorious institutions, or emigrate to some other town "put up or shut up!" Jos. M. Thurston.

Hems Gathered in From Far and Near

Keeping Children Out of Prison. From the New York World. In the training school for boys, for which a site has at last been secured in Yorktown, Westchester county, the state of New York is to take a long step under the cottage-home system for the reclamation of wayward youths. The system is not new. A reformatory on the cottage plan was established by the Philanthropic Society of London in 1788, one was opened near Hamburg, Germany, in 1833, and a third came into existence at Mettray, France, in 1839. The idea took root slowly, but within a recent period it has spread rapidly. Great Britain and the United States have now in operation numerous cottage settlements for boys and several for girls. A few years ago the New York Juvenile asylum of this city was transformed into a boy colony at Echo Hills, in Westchester county. To get away from the institutional environment is the aim in all these cottage establishments. Broken into small groups, the boys lose the prisonlike sense of walls and long dormitories. They are no longer mere inmates. Foster fathers and mothers in the cottages convey the suggestion of family life. Individual tendencies have a chance to develop. Guardians and teachers not keepers find opportunity to cope with different boy natures according to their different needs.

Mounments to "First" Women. From the Boston Transcript. Tab

lets and monuments to the "first" increase and multiply. This week New ! York has placed many historic tablets in position, not all of, them referring to Hudson or Fulton. On the site of

Fort Tryon is a new battle tablet on which it is said that Margaret Corbin was the first American woman to take a soldier's part in the war for liberty

having fought the Hessian troops at that point on the 16th of November,! 1776. This is Interesting, if true, and J it may be true. Radford, Va., this

week has dedicated monument of considerable sculr' :ral pretension to

Mary Draper Ingles, said to have been

the first English bride married west

of the Alleghanies. Without question

ing the good faith of the promoters of these two memorials, it may be asked if all those who erect testimonials to the "first" are sure of their facts. The "first" is almost as dangerous a word as the "last," for the continual delving in old documents now in progress sometimes strips the claim of seniority from those who have heretofore

borne it exempt from criticism.

American Pianos. From the Dayton News. While this

country does not claim any leadership in music or art the people over here having been too busy conquering a

wilderness to devote as much time to such things as the people of the old world have had It will not surprise a great many people who understand manufacturing to be informed that the American piano leads all others.

Thoughtless Intrusions. My Uncle Jim's a wonder in his own especial line. He has a way o' talkln' that's exceptionally fine; But folks is disappointed when they call around his way An ask him if he thinks that It's agoin to rain today. Of course he could inform 'em if he really cared to try, An' interrupt his train o' thought by lookin at the sky. But his mind is alius busy with a nation's discontent. His specialty is tellin' how to run the government. It's queer how people seek to use they never hesitate An intellect like his fur questions of such triflin' weight. They ask him how to run a farm; they really git that bold; An how to tell when crops kin be most profitably sold. If Uncle Jim had keered to notice all that sort o' thing. He'd have a farm himself an all the profit it might bring. But if you want to git a talk that's truely eloquent, Jes step around an ask him how to run the government.

WHY SALVES FAIL TO CURE ECZEMA.

They Clog the Pores Only a Liquid Can Reach the Inner Skin.

Unbecoming Conduct. "I want Bliggins dismissed from the

Optimists Club," said the indignant

youth. "What's the trouble?" "He insists on referring to the money I borrowed from him instead of talking about something pleasant"

An Erratic Luminary. They say the sun looks very queer Up in the Arctic atmosphere; It does not move the same old way, But loops the loop in antics gay!

In Its Infancy. "This north pole controversy is very fierce," said one lawyer. "Nonsense," rejoined the other. "It hasn't really started. They haven't yet hired an alienist or framed a hypothetical question."

Practical Consideration. "My family tree " began the titled suitor. "I'm tired of hearing about family trees," answered Mr. Cumrox. "In the part of the country I came from a man's industry and consequence is measured by the size of the family wood piles."

"Some men," said Uncle Eben, "keeps so busy talkin 'bout how busy

Since the old-fashioned theory of curing eczema through the blood has been given up by scientists, many different salves have been tried for skin diseases. But it has been found that these salves only clog the pores and can not penetrate to the inner skin below the epidermis where the eczema germs are lodged. This the quality of penetrating probably explains the tremendous success of the only standard liquid eczema cure, oil of wintergreen as compounded in D. D. D. Prescription. After ten years of cure after cure, the world's leading skin specialists have accepted this as the true eczema cure. We ourselves do not hesitate to recommend D. D. D. Prescription at $1.00 a bottle, but for the benefit of those who have never tried the prescription, D. D. D. Laboratories of Chicago have arranged for a special large trial bottle at 25 cents on a special offer now. This first bottle ought to convince every sufferer, and, at any rate, it will surely take away the itch at once. Ask any druggist.

Can you imagine a Thanksgiving dinner without turkey? It is almost as easy to picture a fire without smoke or a cyclone without the accompanying wind. What Thanksgiving dinner is complete without the long-legged gobbler to occupy the place of honor on a table literally loaded down with eatables on tha day? Nevertheless, it is always well to be prepared to meet the inevitable and, according to a statement of a local grocer this morning, the big birds are few and far between in the country regions of Wayne county, this year, and the price, O my but that's an unpleasant subject. By the time the 23th of November rolls around there is a bare possibility that turkeys will not be as scarce as is now predicted, and, even though the hope is a small one, it is being held onto like grim death by many persons in this city. In many homes chicken will no doubt be the center of attraction on the holiday feast table, and there is some consolation (though small, however) in the fact that they will be plentiful. Ducks may also take

the place of turkey in a large measure on that day and it Is said that they too will be plentiful this year. The present cold spell has led many to inquire into the condition of the turkey crop this season and it is needless to state that to all the outlook is a great disappointment.

SHE ASKS DIVORCE
