Expensive Boys The state fire marshal of Ohio in a review of

the fires in that state during the last year

asserts that $200,000 worth of damage can be traced directly to the carelessness of boys who carry matches. He says boys are the most expensive item in the fire loss of that state. Parents can be of great service to the city and state by cautioning children in the use of matches. European people look upon every home destroyed by fire as a loss that cannot be replaced. They argue that the wood in the house should be in good condition for a century or more, and that its destruction by fire is a wanton loss. We have been prodigal in our use of wood, and only in the last few years have we appreciated its worth.

Defeat the Remonstrance . The remonstrance which is being circulated against the road improvements in the southern part of the city ought be defeated. Residents ought refuse to put their signature to the instrument. The south side is entitled to good roads and there is absolutely no reason why they should be prevented from having them. The north, easMnd west approaches to the city have been improved with good roadways, why should the south side feel the discrimination? In recent years a number of valuable factories have been constructed in the south side. Owing to bad roads last winter, a number of them were greatly handicapped in hauling material to and from the concerns. The citizens of Richmond need not raise a large factory fund to bring in new concerns if the old concerns are not provided with decent approaches. The factories in the south side are entitled to good roads, and some of the men who are passing around the remonstrances ought look careful to see if they are not cutting off their noses to spite their faces. The South Side Improvement association has worked for many years to establish a factory

center in that part of the city. The association has been level-headed in advocating improvements in that part of the city. Its committee believes that part of the city needs improvements there and the whole city ought join in a movement to prevent a few disgruntled citizens from preventing the working out of a road improvement scheme which will be of benefit to the whole city. Citizens ought refuse to sign the remonstrance.

Avoid Blind Alleys Blind alleys lead nowhere. They usually end in a brick or stone wall. Opportunity cannot be discovered at the end of a blind alley. Opportunity is to be found along the main thoroughfares. If you are one of the thousands whose jobs is jeopardized by labor saving machinery, get out of that line at once and seek a new vocation. A machine will do your labor faster and cheaper, and you will be supplanted as sure as two and two is four. Some forms of labor are transient. It will not take long before they will cease to exist. You cannot compete with a machine, but you have one advantage that every machine lacks brains. Use your brains if you detect that a machine is stalking on your job. A machine can do only the work for which it is designed, but a brain is versatile and adaptable. It will suggest other lines of work that is if you put your brain' to work studying and thinking a way out of your dilemma. Keep your eyes open. If you see that mechanical ingenuity is erecting a stone wall across the road of your progress, return and get a fresh start on a road whose terminal you cannot see.

Resuming the Lockstep The Ohio State Journal daily reprints an item of news published thirty years ago. Recently it printed an item detailing the resumption of the lockstep in the Ohio state penitentiary, which evidently had been abandoned shortly before the item was printed. The clipping, contrasted with methods today, indicates how great has been the change of attitude toward the penal problem in the last few decades. Says the Journal in 1886: 1 The men from the Hayden's and Patton's foundries in the penitentiary were put back to the lockstep in marching last night. Each company was made to stand in a column, every man with his right hand on the shoulder of the convict in front of him, and to march close together in single file. This is an experiment and all the prisoners will not be put back to the lock-step unless the board is convinced that it will be for the best interests of the institution. The officers of the penitentiary are very much in favor of this manner of marching, as it keeps the prisoners close together, compels them to step together and hurry through the yard. The experiment last night made them more favorably inclined than ever to the lock-step.

BY EDGAR ILIFF. Our diplomatic and consular service has so declined in efficiency in the last four years that we have become the object of ridicule the world over. Very important places are filled to pay political debts with no thought of the fitness of the person appointed or of the peculiar mentality and different language of the people to whom we send our agents. In no country has the law of fitness been more outraged than in Mexico. The Latin or Spanish people are very polite and their modes of thought are quite different from ours. They can't understand the quick and preemptory ways of the American. Neither can the untrained American appreciate that proud, sombre, dreamy and sometimes gloomy attitude of the mixed Aztec and Spanish bloods. Well Fitted for Post. Henry Lane Wilson, our ambassador to Mexico, had gathered much experience in Mexican diplomacy and was well fitted for the place in the troublous times that followed the overthrow and expulsion of President Diaz. But he was recalled by President Wilson just when he was most needed and his embassy left in the hands of Nelson O'Shaughnessy. Let us go back a little. The Socialist party in the United States had been for years inciting the poor and ignorant in Mexico to rise and crush the government of Diaz. At, last, at the fatal hour, that government was overthrown. Diaz met .his cabinet. The Socialists, led by Madero, with the cry, "land for the landless," and "down with the tyrant," were pressing hard the brave old soldier who had held Mexican lawlessness in check for thirty years and was leading his country to a great place among the nations of the earth. An aching tooth worried him. He asked the cabinet to excuse him while he had the tooth extracted. The dentist used an unclean instrument. In an hour the president's cheek had swollen to a grotesque size. Fatigue had weakened his blood. Septic poisoning had set in. In a weak moment he resigned and his most trusted general, Huerta, gave him protection until he sailed from Vera Cruz to Europe. So pitifully closed the reign of Porfirio Diaz, the greatest man Mexico has produced.

Then came in Madero, the Socialistic spendthrift of glowing words, the neurotic, the faddist He was incapable of thinking clearly. He was a vegitarian and a spiritualist. He held seances with his wife as medium to obtain guidance from the mighty dead. His vagaries made him a laughing stock. With the ignorant Indians and half-breeds, who are superstitious to a great degree, he appealed with mystic rites and occult wonders, and promised them all plenty of land and oceans of money to buy intoxicants. Meeting a man n the street one day. who said he was going home to get his overcoat, Madero replied, "Do not trouble to do that. I will make you think you are warm," and in the street he began to make hypnotic passes! Such was the president of Mexico. And, when the people realized that he was not giving them the wealth he had promised, but was spending the public funds lavishly upon his vast estates and his already immensely wealthy family, they arose again and dragged him to prison. He had emptied the treasury and spent sixty millions beside. When about to be arrested he became Insane and shot with his own hand two officers who advised him to be quiet. On the way to prison he attempted to escape and was shot down by the guards. U. S. Becomes Involved. Right here the United States became badly involved. A little wisdom, a little trust in Henry Lane Wilson, would have relieved us of a great deal of trouble and spared the lives of thousands of Americans, saved over 500 millions of property, and protected in life, security, goods, business, etc., over 200,000 innocent Mexicans who are either dead or homeless. (To Be Continued.)

LAW ENFORCEMENT INCREASES LICENSES

"The increase in the number of junk licenses this year is not so much due to the raise in junk prices as it is to the enforcement of the city ordinance requiring all collectors to have licenses," Gus Hafner, deputy clerk said today. Up to date over a hundred more licenses have been issued this year than last.
