SEPTEMBER 8, 1916.
ROUNDING UP THE IRRESPONSIBLE. A coroner's jury in Chicago not long ago recommendcil a i-tcret investigation of all people of su hnoir:.:-1 intelligenceby the police. This w us inspired by an "n-rjuc-tt into the death of ix ikts'.iis at the hands of a Negro religious fanatic and his wife. The recommendations were in brief: That an inve stigat nn without publicity he conducted hy the police, and the nanus of .subnormals be reports! through the police to the judge of the county court. That the practice of rrleasin such characters arrested in luabi-criininal warrants be hseoiitinued. That an examination of tlum 1- nude by the most nientitio medical exports obtainable. That a committee be appointed to make an in estimation f all irious. criminal subnormals. The suumestion has piven rise to a tn deal of humorous comment outsde of Chu ao; but it is a ise and construct4ve si'K"fstion nevertheless, worth adopting in any city, however small. The irresponsible perw,n is always liable to break out dangerously in some unexp.'fteu way. Thorough mediral examination ot all susptrted moron and half-wits would result in minimizing this danger. It would mean, doubtlo-s, that some of them would be operated on sur-'i'-ally. with the consequent elimination of vicious characteristics. Others would be sein-fpated. 'till others, considered harmless, would simply he reentered and Riven a rt nf mild, supervision. It is not necessary in thee days for an intelligent community to be at the mercy of subnormals and irresponsible s.
A QUESTION OP TOOLS. What the honored editor ot" the In-lir.cator wants to know i. "Where is that hammer?" "Of cours". when you don't want the hammer, it is
j always on hand. Yoti pee it lyin there, perfectly j visualized, it I. pointing north by east. You remem
ber that distinctly. Eater, when you need it o badly, you recall all this vividly. The only thins you cannot remember is where it was. Nothing makes yo'i do that ever." It is an experience too common and l(o poignant
to ned dwelling upon
nut neer ran it te found. And it isn t due to any
natural lepraity on the part of hammers, either. It is just a weak-minded hbit of not having a place for thing?. Every hou.ce needs, a few tool. Not only a hammer, but a hatchet, a saw, monkey w rencth, a. pair or two of pliers, a push-drdl, a jacU-plane, .some files, a putty knife, .1 couple- of wood chisels, a small ise, and an assorted lot of screws and nails. Eut how many houses have th s modest outfit ? And in how many houses that hue it. can what's wanted be found when the need arise ? Iid yon ever watch a woman put up a towel-bar? .Iie tries to hold the heavy thinff and the screw in one hand while she begin at the beginning with the screw driver to screw it into the unprepared wood. It takes about half an hour if she gets it in. Even so simple a dejce as holding it on the wall with liuhtly drien carpet tacks while she screws the first two screws doesn't occur to her. When she moves into a house which requires four towel bars and innumerable closet hooks, the Mt nation is pitiable. Which leads us to remark that driving a nail, the traditional test or woman's mechanical competence, isn't the true; it s driving a screw. "oming back to tools why shouldn't every house
i have one small place sacred to tools? And why
shouldn't they be kept in order, as a woman keeps her kitchen utensils? And why shouldn't every member of the family, including the feminine contingent, knowhow to use, for simple purposes, the saw, the pushdrill, the automatic screw driver' Why be so helpless in a world so full of lahor savers?
Recollections For 19 1 2 Bull Moose ana 191 6 Reactionaries
THE SAME BUT DI PEE RENT. Kept newspapers are making much of thp fact that En s t Cleveland interfered with federal troops in the great Chicago railway strike of lv.4, overriding th !.,r-al authorities and C.ov. Altgeld. "Would he were in the white house now:" is their lament. There is no similarity in the conditions, one difference is that there has been no strike. Eesides drover Cleu'.and based his interference upon tlV fact that T. S. mails were be:n obstructed. In the present situation, such obstruction was never even threatened. The brotherhoods decided .it tho outset not to make alid that ground for federal attpm. The calamity threat rnefi was the tiein,; up of freight tratlic, very largely, and that was awful enough. With the liuht we've acquired on railroad mismanagement sir.ee l'-i J, ou rant tell what drover Cleveland would do today. l-'or instance, he might use the federal power to jail railroad potentates who have so wrecked lailioad.- as to make it impossible for them to pa', dec n: vv.ig"s. What a railroad strike would have meant to the whole , ountr was distinctly shown in what was actually happening with the mere poihility

ty. when their political met hod and dones were later most praphicallv pictured b- Col. Roosevelt and our own Albert Jeremiah Eeveride. Albert Jeremiah was still hopeful of the party two weeks after that meeting for it was Mareh 14. EU 2. that he made a speech in Tomlinson hall repeating things said by Kealing ard Hemenway and New and Goodrich and 1'airhanks after this fashion: "Your democratic years will be hard enough on the hundreds of housands of honest business men in the country, but it will be harder on the millions of men who earn their bread by the sweat of their facts. To these latter it will mean the pinch of hunger. All of thea four iean years and two more years to recover from them. Take these six years out of the life of a business man ."' years old and you have taken from him much, but take six years out of the life of a working man 50 years old and you have taken from him well nigh all." I'eople of Indiana are growing .impatient to hear Albert Jeremiah explain about the "four lean years" and the awful poverty that is gripping the people at the end of "four democratic years." In that samespeech in 1012, he told us. speaking of the last republican administration: "For three years we have seen business growing worse. It is time we should begin to make business grow better." The people did as hi advised and made "business growbetter." That was by electing Woodrow Wilson and having "four democratic years." In 1914, Albert Jeremiah mado another Fpeech and told us: ' here in Indiana the republican managers are men who were lieutenants in the old machine, whose orders the republican organization is carrying out this very moment. Promises to reform from a party so controlled insult the intelligence of the people, for breaking of promises is their specialty." He was describing the "hoys" who "met in the criminal court room" in EU 2 and organized. They met again in 1011 and again in 1JUC
and "organized" and they still own the organization as they did in 1312. The same thing can still be said of themselves in 1314, "breaking promises is their specialty." The same yesterday, today and forever. The did not like what I'eveidigo said in 1014 and Joe Kealing was then as now, the big boss and authorized spokesman. The newspapers of March 14, EU 4 , tell us "A great del of indignation is being expressed by members of the republican organization over the speech of Albert J. Eeveridge. f5 peakin.tr in behalf of that organization Joseph E. Healing said, 'I do not propose to remain silent and see the representatives of the organization assailed. We are decent, reputable citizens and in more ways than one our reputations are superior to
THE MELTING POT FILLED BY THE EDITORIAL STAFF
THE RH A I. TRAGEDY. A young wife of Evanston, 111., tried to commit suicide by drinking a bottle of utk, followed by a bottle of face lotion and one of liniment. When last heard from she was out of danger. Her husband had deserted her. He ran off with an actress and is living in another city. The young woman b( lieved that if she had a child her husband would Mine back to her. She brooded over this until he balance was no longer quite perfect. One evening a little four-year-old cirl happened to drop in. The suffering child-wife was seized with the inspiration that if she took the little girl to see her husband rraybe she would be the means of bringing them together again. She did not mean to kidnap the child permanently, hut just to take her off for a day or two. Waiting at the station for the train, she attracted the attention of the matron, utnd the story came out. Following the return of the little girl to her mother, the wife, in a lit of uncontrollable misery, tried to end her life. It is an unhappy little talc with no gleam of relief in it. Eut the real tragedy lay not in the attempted suicide, not in the pitiful attempt at reconciliation with the man who had wearied of her and thrown her over, not even in the fact of his desertion. It lay in the fact that the girl is barely seventeen. At seventeen a girl should be in school. She should be busied with her studies and her outdoor activities and her wholesome associations with other girls and boys. She ought to be learning to earn her living. Matrimony should have a place in her life only as a dream of the far future, before whose realization she must learn many things. It should have no part in her present at all. I'oor little hysterical child-wife, hopelessly unfitted for her great task! Cannot society learn somehow to avoid these tragic
I blunders?
SATII7TY. Among the things which reek with optimism rich and bright There's none with much advantage of the human appetite. We know a list of things we want and want them mighty hard; We view them with extreme desire and hantcerintr regard; We cry: "I wish to goodness such and such belonged to me; How gloriously happy and contented I should be." Terhaps we win the benefit for which we usd to yearn. Perhaps we pet supplies of it to throw away ind burn. We soon forget our appetite but recently so sharp; We start to knock and criticise, to cavil, kic" and carp; We quickly are aweary of the .grandest lino of stuff. Of which we formerly were sure we'd never pet enough. If happiness is what you unrelentingly require. Preserve the keen aeuteness on the dge of your desire Don't overeat or oversmoke or overplay or drink, Or overdance or overlove or oversleep or think; An overdose of anything will quickly pall and cloy. Relentlessly depriving your enjoyment of its poy. A. E. B.

THE RICE DELUSION. Just what to do about food is becoming a baffling problem. Just as we have painfully learned to compute nourishment by calories, along comes an authority saying that eating by calory isn't any way to eat, anyhow. There are vitamines to be considered, and psychological elements. Now it's tice. For a time we were warned of the dangers that lurked in polished rice. The Japanese who eat it die of beri-beri and other terrible diseases. So whenever we surveyed the snowy mound which we expected to douse with the thicken gravy, or sniffed expectantly at the kitchen do r while the onions and tomatoes and peppers and things were sizzling briskly for the festive creMe sauce we had a dreadfully guilty

The extract is the sub-stance of tie opinions picked up. throughout tho west by I'.riggs. "As to Hughes, folks feel that he is solid ivory from the tip of h: whiskers, northward. The general impression is that he has no political talent or visirn. He is a common scold. I gathered al! this from the casual remark s dropj. d by casual acquaintai.' "s.
