A COURT DESIGNED FOR
YOUTHFUL LAW BREAKERS
In commenting on a symposium entitled "A Campaign for
Childhood." comprising a manv-hiti«l diictiiwum o[ the Ju-
venile Court und it? iMt iiinerv, ilwt admirable wwklv, Cliar-
iticf, ilwlarra that tl*> cl>il<lren' court, especially «a now

for soeiul betterment.'
Progress at thi^ rate proves not only that the Juvenile
court responded to a vital and acutely felt need, but that it
i* founded on the right principle and satisfactorily solves the
important problem. HHHI
The movement had it* inception with the enactment of the
Illinois lair of 1899. The carefully framed provisions of
this law applied to all dependent, neglected and delinquent
children under t< not inmates of regular institutions. Venn-
svlvanta and W isconsin enacted Juvenile Court and probation
laws in 1001, the cities of New York, Baltimore and Cleve-
land in l! W, and since then the following states have es-
tablished the honeficicut system: California, Colorado, In-
diana. Missouri, Xew Jersey, New York, Iowa and Qhio.
material as tl e department of ^jrrieulture is able to furnish.
A more absurd fallacy was never exposed. If it were true
the worn out hills of New Kngland could, as by a wave as of
the magician's wand, be given productive eapacitv equal to
that ef central Illinois; to the nauds of Michigan could be
imparted the fertility of the llawkeye state.
As a matter of fact no such means of restoring humus to
worn out land is practicable. The principle of innoculution
is net new. It has been practiced unconciouslv from time
immemorial, seed being the agency of conveying the needed
nitrogen gathering germs. What the department of agricul-
ture ha* undertaken is the distribution of these nitrogen
gathering germs, &o essential to the successful cultivation of
the legumes in compact form. Hut nitrogen alone will not
renovate land. It is merely a factor although an important
one.
leguminous crops need potassium and phosphorus, of
which thev arc ravenous consumers.
NEED FOR REFORM SCHOOLS
IS SOMEWHAT URGENT
While the Oklahoma legislature is doing other things that
might be worth while it is a good idea to think of some mat-
ters thai arc of uudoubted importance at the present time
end which can only be deferred with bad effects that the fu-
ture can not cure.
In this connection the movement on the part of a number
of philanthropic and studious persons looking toward
tablishmcnt of a reform school for youthful incorrigibly is
of paramount important
It never was right to incarcerate young persons in ti pen-
itentiary. It matters not what length of term or for what
alleged crime the boy or girl has been convicted, the duty of
Curtis in his daily letters to that paper. On his recent trip
to the Holy Land Mr. Curtis' letters have been read more
closely than ever, and his descriptions of that interesting sec-
tion of the giobe as it appears today have been quoted every-
where.
PROGRESS IS SHOWN
IN PHILIPPINE REPORT
The annual report of the Philippines commission, pre-
sented to the president by the secretary of war, shows notable
progress in the islands in spite of the false hopes of independ-
ence industriously disseminated by a coterie of democrats in
the United States.
The chief need of the islands has becu peace, and a relief
from the constant menace of bands of robbers and patriots
between whom there was no visible means of distinction.
This has been accomplished largely through the efforts of the
Filipinos themselves, acting under American direction and
control, and as a result of the policy pursued it has been pos-
sible to reduce the American garrison of the i.-lands to a
very small forcc, while at the came time the authority of a
central and civilized government has been enforced more ef-
fectually and over a wider territory than was ever before the
case in the history of the island.-.
In conjunction with this prime necessity of peace and or-
derly government there lias been steadv progress in other
matter-. The civil service is making rapid progress aeord-
ing to American standards. The public ihiances have been
reorganized on the basi- of economy, honesty and regard for
the public welfare. A genuine system of public instruction
lias been treated. Commerce has been endowed with a stable
coinage system that permits monetary calculations to be made
a matter <>1' certainty and not of guesswork.
It would Ik? going too far to say that conditions in the
the state is plainly to attempt reformation rather than pun-
uhmeut. Reformation haa never been accomplished for a Philippine- are all that they should be, or that there is no
bov or girl in a penitentiary. On the central v tin
u til fill
prisoner has always been made a confirmed criminal by the
association that was ftad at the penitentiary.
It is believed tliat the people of Oklahoma will get behind
a measure to establish a reformatory for youthful incorrigi-
bles if such a measure be designed along lines that are not
too expensive and in a manner to protect the youth and help
them.

IRRIGATION OF LAND
BY PUMPING PLANTS
The irrigation of land by menus of pumping is now re-
telling marked attention, mid people nro iH'ginnintf to
realise that tho vast area so located as to make it impos-
sible to irrigate by canal systems on account of the cost
lieing so much in excess of tho henelita received, <un be re-
claimed and made extremely productive and valuable. It
is the irrigatiouist under this method of whom wo have the
most fear. He is absolutely master of the situation, he owns
his own plant, can operate it when lie sees lit, and is not sub-
ject to even caution or suggestion from any company from
which water is purchased. It is true the expense involved in
coal, wood, gasoline, oil or other fuel may cheek him Jo a cer-
tain extent in the operation of his pumping plant, but there
are devices that have been proved practieat for pumping
water that require no fuel or expense of operation,
What does the possessor of a device of this character pur-
l*w doing? Start his machine in operation, let it ran night
i ml dav Hcoding his land until ruined? Or will ho exercise
judgment, deliver his water iuto a reservoir, tank, Ikix Hume,
or Other receptacle and allow it to remain there for use when
needed, thereby properly exemplifying tho correct dehuitioii
of irrigation, namely, insure having water when needed, lie
should provide his box lltinio with gales wherever laterals
occur, irrigate today any five or ten acres of land, refill his
box. ditch, or lliinic. bv again aelliug his pump at work
while he sleeps; tomorrow look after llio irrigation of some
other part of his land.
Bv pursuing some such policy he is not required invest
in a large and expensive plant capable of discharging enough
water to flood all his land til one time, and can accomplish
the proper irrigation of his land at minimum cost, lie gets
thn bcncllt of every gallon of water his pump delivers, as no
aeepaga takes place between pump ami where he wants to
use the water. He iife-ures himself against ruining hi. land
bv excess flooding, thereby bringing the alkali to the Mir-
faco. and he irrigates his land as it should ho irrigated,
thereby insuring, if properly cultivated, the raising of a bet-
ter crop both as to quantity and quality than though he pur-
ged the slip-shod methods of using water simply because ho |
hail il to ii-c. As staled, irrigation in this country is in its
infancy.
There' is no better instructor tlmu tlie e.se, and where we
see tracts of land a« white as thi> | iper and made so by cx-
cewive u*c of water, it i plain to any one iliut too much water
is as bad, if not worse, tlian none at all.

that the department of agriculture has made a wonderful
discovery by which the material t< r fructifwu# worn out

"I have always regarded a revolution iu Uussia as a most
improbable page of history. Xo one who knows much of
tho Russian peasant life, who understands something of the
low grade of intelligence, the lack of effective leadership, the
impossibility that there has been for organization, training
and ef|upiment, will fail to recognize the disadvantage of any
revolutionary forces. If there should be revolt in the army,
if the advice of some of the agitators should be taken, and
soldiers would turn their weapons on their officers, then it
might be time to anticipate a revolutionary movement of
real importance, llut until there is more evidence than ha-
bcen offered recently that the revolutionists will present any-
thing like effective opposition to the troops, the probability
must remain strong that the Russian government will go on
as it has for a long while.
"The tone of tho workingmen's manifesto is, to my mind,
one of the interesting features of the incident. It indicates
a loss of the superstitious respect that has always surrounded
the Czar. If there i* a breaking down of the superstitious
UWO which the Church has built up around the august per-
son of tho Czar, then this may be the tirst step towards a real
revolution. Tlie effect of a Russian revolution on the world's
finances, and particularly upon affairs in America, might at
tirst thought seem to be small. American ilnancial interest
in Russia is practically nothing. A few of the large insur-
ance companies have very modest holdings of Russian secur-
ities, but out.^ido of that, and outside,of a'small interest
which seme of/our manufacturing companies have in indus-
trial concerns there, there is little intimate financial rela-
tionship between the two countries. Russia owes France
over $i, 800,000,00(1. However, anything that should ser-
iously undermine feeling in regard to the security of that
Mist sum would be a tremendous shock to the world s credit.
If Russia were anything else than Russia it would now be
:ntcrlng into a new and better form of government.
If the war cannot hold public attention now what hope
is there for it after the baseball season opens again?
If the asylum were not so valuable an asset to Oklahoma

BRILLIANT RECORD OF
A NEWSPAPERMAN
The success which has attended William K. Curtis, the
famous correspondent of the Chicago Record-Herald, is rare-
ly attained by newspaper writers. Beginning his career in
Chicago in 1 as reporter, he rapidly rose to the positiou
of managing editor. He resigned that position on receiving
a government appointment as secretary of the South Ameri-
can Commission. Mr. Curtis traveled extensively in Cen
tral and South America, while in this portion, producing >e\- j
cral popular volumes as the result of his literary labors. Af- I
terward co-operating with Secretary of Slate James (J.
Blaine, Mr. Curtis organized the work of the bureau of Amer-
ican republics, with the result that lie was placed in tharg.
of that organization, and at th« world - Columbian c\po-i-
tion he distinguished himself by his labors as the execu-
tive head of the Latin-American department. As corres-
pondent of the Chit ago Record-1 leraid, Mr. Curtis' travels
have carried him into every nvtion of the I nited StaU
well as into all quarters of the globe. 11
letters were published in book form : likewise his letter* from
Kngland, (ierinany and France, a* well as those written dur-
Im in- tartls i" Mexico and South America.
No newspaper correspondent posM*>es tho facility shown
by Mr. Curtis in writing on any of the diversified subjects
embraced in his correspondence and making it luminous.
