All familiar with acetylene Kas realize that it is both highly explosive and cxot edlngly dangerous. The calamity at Hoyertown.

Is too recent to bo forgotten. Picture the result In case of fire or panic hundreds of children caught In a veritable death trap. With all the different grades occupying thcif respective rooms, with plenty of exits and under all favorable circumstances, rvumbura of children are difficult to handle. How much greater would be the undertaking to conduct such a large number to safety. A short time ago, in Glasgow, 8cot l.i nd, hundreds of children had to htr a locture.

The balcony was overcrowded, while the seats downstairs were only partially filled. The manager invited a number of the children In the crowded balcony to come downstairs to occupy the empty st ats. Immediately thera was a rush for the stairway some one stumbled on the stairs and fell. Those behind, not realizing what was occurring in front, pushed on and over the prostrate bodiea. A panic ensued, and nineteen children lost their lives.

Mere tn our own city on one occasion newsboys were bidden to an entertainment. A larse crowd of boys gathered. In hurrying downstairs one boy tripped and fell, others behind pushed on and four lives were sacrificed. Of we reallza that order and discipline have their effect, but under extreme. circumstances who could control ix or seven nundrod children gathered ln one body? There Is no reason for not Supposing that In case of panic or Are the result would be an exact repetition of the Col linwood catastrophe.

We can not begin too soon to take precautions against such a calamity, in our schioi. FOR THE SAFETY" OP THE CHIIr DltEN. Good Laws First Essential. To the Editor of Tbe News: glr In the course of a thoughtful editorial on tha development of lawless ness in the United States, you point out that the essential thing needed is the constant enforcementof law; "the inculcation of the sense law obedience so that we shall be shocked by disobelience and Instinctively demand its proper punishment." Such an editorial is valuable for thw reason that It tends to arouse serious thought as to the best method for redeeming "the bloodiest land that the sun shines on." One of the greatest defects of our svs tem is that which permits the temporary will of the majority to bo crystallized into leslslstlon. This temporary will may be the result of hysteria, passion, prejudice, agitation.

misunderstanding, misrepresentation; In fact, the result of an infinite number of causes antagonistic wise legislation. The way to make the people respect the law Is to have taws worthy of respect and backed by public sentiment demanding their enforcement. The blame for unwise legislation does rrnt rest always with tha men who are delegated to frame the laws. These men are responsible to their constituency, and the sentiment of that constituency a sentiment often based on no tinner foundation than unreasoning emotion is used a means of coercion by those who have arouseij that sume unreasoning emotion. These re.l tlons lead inevitably to the conviction that the agitator who creates public sentiment that forces the enactment of unenforceable laws is a public enemy, frr unenforceable law is the creator anarchy.

If we are to avoid anarchy, evory tendency in that direction niuwt be An agitation tow in progress has made organization the most powerful political rower and legislative factor in the United States. "If you do not vote in accordance with our policies we will retire jou to private life," is the threat cf the AnU Safoon League to day your legislative halls, aye, in the con tmes of the Tntted states Senate, the Im wt autrust deliberative body in the world." Va hy should that body be deliberative? Why should any body of lawmakers be deliberative? Why not let the "waves" of puMio emotion settle air question or public policy? Wa maintain lawmaking bodies oi the theory that deliberation and discussion will Tresult in wise leertslatlon. Can the people be ex peclfd to re ipT vt laws that owe their be tng to emotional aiit'ation, hysteria, coercion and cowardice? What this country need is common a a to at or THE PEOPLE sense legislation; legislation that takes Into consideration the permanent will of the great majority of the people. Does the great majoritr of the people want legislation that will deorive every cerson. ra srardlens of race, cretnl and condition, of the prlvIlcRe of using an alcoholic bever asre In moderation? No.

Then why not have laws that will recosrnize? the general demand for li'iuor and effectually reg ulflte the salef Such laws have, been formulated. They can be enforced. Every enforceable law js a check on anarchy, NAT. MODEL LICENSE LEAGUE. By T.

Tariff and Reform, To the Editor of The News: Slr The revision of the tariff schedules go con that the common people can not "ndcrstand it is The com mon reople hnow when manufacturers can end do sell their wares to people of joreign counines encaper man iney ao at home that the tariff duties on such arti cles are loo high. They understand why the price of lumber is ao high. The newspaper men understand fvhy print paper is so high. The people 'have learned how groat corporations have managed to swallow urJ competitors. They have ieurned what a "monopoly" is.

They have discovered the power of capital over Congress and State legislatures. As consumers, they have been consumed. They were flattered and made to believe that the higher tariff duties were laid, the greater their individual and collective prosperity. These promises have not been realized. Th favored class, the class of special privileges, the iiifi mat ins granted every demand, has prospered.

The neoDle at large shared this prosperity to a degree, but not commensurate wjth the "special privileged class." When the consumers compared their little dividends with the colossal dividends of the great consolidated corporations, they at once discovered they had been robbed. The ej.argo of "robbery" has gone up irom every state ana irom every county In every State. The consumers of this country are in a big they are the prey of the trusts, and the fleec ing uiey nave been receiving accounts for the public demand for tariff reform. The standpatters are the friends of the pres nt high tariff rates; If they have their way mere will be. no revision.

The Taft uartv nronoses an extra, ses sion of Congress, after the election, to attend to this matter. They do not ln lorm me people whether It is to go up or down simply a revision. The consumers. the laboring class, want the revision uownwara ilryan and his platform win explicitly so state. j.

u. OIJELI Delphi. March 4, Street Improvement Deception. To tha Kditor of Tlie Sir It is becoming a custom, It ems. for men or companies who furnish the material for certain kinds of street paving to select some resident property owner who can be used for their purpose as a promoter for the particular sort of Improvement in which their material is used and promise to rebate him for a certain part, and in some cases the en tire cost to him in case he is successful in forcing their sort of improvement through.

Two residents of Ilatnilton avenue have admitted that they were so approached. Such rosy promises as these appeal strongly, to some men. and In this day or "grait It is not a difficult matter to find a man who can be influenced to use every scheme to carry the matter through regardless of the often unfortu nate circumstances of his neighbors. He goes to. work in an active manner and tn nearly every, case he underestimates the "probable" cost while asking for signa tures to his paper, and never allows the signer to know that they must also bear the cost or water, gas.

curb, etc This sort of business is contemptible. One man passed up and down Hamilton avenue between East Tenth and East Michigan streets, trying to persuade the resident property owners to decide for brick street, telling them, they claim, at the same time that it could be done for from J3 to XS a foot. He never once mentioned the cost of curbing and cost for connections. Now this man knew that the cost for this roadway would be not less than toot ana mignt run as ntgn as 4. The contract for Colorado street was awarded March for brick and for same roadway at J3.5S.

and the bids went as high as J3.93. The people must learn not to listen to misrepresentations. Be sides, there are other kinds of street paving Just as. good for streets this far out at less cost. Besides the great majority of residents on Hamilton avenue are not ready for Improvements and are ready to remonstrate against it risrbt now.

RESIDENT. The National. Model License League. the Editor ef Tha News: Sir Editorially you express doubt as the consistency of the attitude of the National Model License League, representing' the liquor trade In opposing prohibition on the ground that It Increases the consumption of alcoholic beverages. Permit us to give you an illustration sufSclently parallel to make the point clear.

Suppose there was 'an organization work in thia country using the torch bomb to put newspaper out of business. Every case of destruction of property would make news, and tbe demand for news would greatly increase sales, but what good would the demand do when the last of the paper had been eliminated?

An Answer to "Boy. To tbe Editor of The Sir Noticing the communication of a "Boy" in last evening's News, and touching as it does on some of the vital points of a young man's career, I wish to look with" this Boy of sixteen on the opposite side of his letter for a moment. Has he ever thought of the many better places a boy of sixteen can spend most of his time than on the street corners, skating rinks, saloons or poolrooms? Has it ever occurred to him that the street corner is no place of instruction or education. On the other hand, a most encouraging place for the breeding (and headquarters for) the worst criminals of the day. as any person experienced In cretec tive or police work will tell you.

I would rather lose my vote than to vote for any young man that' gained practically all Ire knew on the street corner or ukating rink. What kind nf mayor would he make? On the other hand, the persons interested in the movement for the suppression of street gangs can not and do nof expect to make friends of tho boys at the time, but when they grow up to be men they will be better men in every way and give their thartks then. I have had ten years of experience as a resident of Indianapolis, as many In. Louis, and slightly more in Cincinnati, and I say that when a quiet, law abiding citizen is not permitted to walk along a public highway without being grossly insulted by young tougrhs, too young to vote, he must see that it is for the Last of any city to rid Itself of these hoodlums, I would rather see the two, or for that matter all the city officials, the "objec of hatred." if that will do any good, every boy in America, and be Hd of these street gangs, thanto have to resort to extreme measures to protect our families I heartily Indorse Mayor Bookwalter and district attorney's efforts in thi behalf. For they will certainly have all the support 1 can furnish them.

Let the boy go where he can learn to be an honest. upright citizen, who has not fitted himself for public office on the street corner or at the skating rinks, bo that we can hope in the future for much better administration than we are having. I him learn by education to get what he wants most. In answer to his auery. "Why should not go to the skating I will give this advice: Young man, put your time to some better use.

This way is throwing your, most valuaUle dime away. Remem ber. It will not be long before you are a man and supposed to know something at least. So use thia valuable time so that when the time does come for you to fill an important place you will be well equipped. W.

R. W. Washington and Liquor Ads. To the Editor of The Sir1 In a late issue' of The News there was a fine likeness of Washington, ajid his many virtues were extolled, to attract attention to an advertisement for Bud wetser beer. We, wires and mothers of Van Buren, members of the W.

C. wish to protest against the use of portraits of Amer ica's greatest men for the purpose ad vertislngr liquor of any kind ln so impor tant a publication as your paper. The most Intelligent and refined families in Indiana are readers of your paper. Such an advertisement attracts the attention of the boys, and if Washington used malt Iiauor. why not they? The most important question that the mothers of America have to solve Is "How can we save our boya and girls from the destroying Influence and effects of liquor and teach them to become sober, honest men and women We voice the many when we protest against the use of portraits of America's greatest men to attract attention to an advertisement for liquor or tobacco.

If newspapers would decline all such advertisements they would honor the memory of America's beloved son, and do justice to the future men ana women or our land WOMAN'S CHRISTIAN TEMPERANCE UNION. Van Buren, Ind. ssaaBSsMMSssassssssassBasasHSHawsB Teachers'' Fees In Monroe County. Te tha Editor of 'Tbe NswV Sir I wish to set myself right In regard to an article lri The News of tha 11th ln connection with the county superintend ent's office. The facts are theae: The stu dent teachers In attendance at Indiana University wishing to pass an examlna' tlon for teachers and have their manu scripts sent to their own home to be graded or seat to the State superintendent for a State license, are required to pay the county superintendent of Monroe county.

(He claims this Is an institute fee.) No reputable lawyer will ear that this fee Is legal. The Attorney General's office haa declared that this fee is not legal. In trav eling over the State I frequently heard the complaint. "Why can not you atop this gouge on our teachers at the uni versity?" I tried this, but failed. I have appealed to the highest authorities in the State and will act on their advice.

As to the truth of these statements 1 refer you to all the student teachers in the university, and as to the legality to any reputable lawyer In the State. As to my motive. It was to protect the stu dents. And I never asked the county supenntenaent to buy books for the coun ty, as that power does not lie With him. out wim me trustees.

AUSTIN THOMPSON. Bloomlngton, Ind. Handlcraftsmanshlp. To the Editor ef The Nawa: Sir A small case of French work Is now to he seen at the Art Institute of a character to rejoice the heart of those who love, handwork. The objects shown illustrate the neatness and finish of French workmanship nl also that "horror of the too much" 7 which the Latin races seem to nave inherited from old Greek artisans.

One of the articles is pl plain Ivory dish set richly7 wrought feet of gilt bronae. Another is a silver candlestick of elegant design, tbe top hung with festoons of flowers, the shaft garlanded with' flowers, the feet made of flowering vines, every blossom, every leaf perfect. A third specimen is a bronze mirror adorned with rich clusters of cherry blossoms carved out of ivory, the bronze throwing into relief the yellow white of the ivory; never were such beautiful flowers cut before. A small cup of china Is shown, finely perforated like lace, and book binding, set with bronze in low relief, and an Ivory statuette on a base of precious marble, and other things. MARY KAN.

Firemen to Drill School Corps. To the Editor of The 'e: Sir I note that in Pittsburg it has been arranged to station a fireman at each school building from 9 a. m. to 4 p. m.

I would suggest that tn all cities having paid firemen the older and stronger boysj be organized and drilled once or twice eqchfl week, and during the usual fire drill now used In our puoiic wiioois. ucri instruc tion of the bo.vs to te given ey an ex perienced fireman from the active force. All large ouiiatngs snouta pe equippea with standnipes. and on each floor and outside hose should be attached, ready to run out and reach with water every part of the building. I feel sure a drill equal ing one hour a week would boon produce an effective emergency force and the lioys would receive instruction of great valu'to tbem through life.

They would enjoy it, too. W. J. 1L 1IIUII IftilLli Uli 1UIILU PITTSBURG MPPI11G SUDDEN FLOOD MAKES PRIS ONERS OF MANY PEOPLE. THE' DAMAGE WILL HEAVY I TTTPUUKO.

March 13. With surprising suddennefs another flood swept down on Pittsburg and vicinity to day. At 10 o'clock this morning the stage reached the danger murk twenty two feet, and the water was rising seven tenths of an inch an According to the local United iitates weather bureau a possible stage of thirty three feet is expevted here early to morrow. If the prediction of the fore CRster mate rial! suffering and damage that will result tn the fity 'and vicinity will be wholesale." Should thirty three feet of water come it will lock only three anil one half feet of the great flood of March last. All snail streams are on the rampage.

Streets and cellars in the suburbs are covered with water. High gum boots. Improvised rafts and. small skiffs are at a premium. 'Thousands of women and children ate prisoners in their homes.

Schools lightly attended to day. The lowlands of this city are inundated, and owing to the 'tuickness with which the high wat came, few persons were able to take the preciition of saving valuable goods. Kailruad schedules are badly disar rangt on account of the water and heavy landslides. On the mnlti line of the Pennsylvania railroad between Larimer and East Pittsburg, a distance of eight miles, Tracks' 1 end are out of commission. On the southwest Pennsylvania division trains are moving at a snail's pace on account of numerous washouts.
