Congressman Gardner has a great 
fight on in the reciprocity bill be- 
cause of ifs unfavorable influence on 
the Gloucester industries. We hope 
he has not a losing fight. One man 
cannot do everything in a crisis. Mr. 
Gardner will do what he can for his 
district. The misfortune which may 
befall Gloucester is similar to losses 
which have occurred in other times. 
Granting that the country will gain 
Gloucester will lose. The smaller 
part suffers because of the larger 
part. It may be that this cannot 
be helped. The introduction of ma- 
chinery caused the unemployment of 
many, but in the end the workman 
eained. Every gain has its loss. 
While our sympathies are wholly 
with Gloucester we believe if worse 
comes to worse she will recover 
bravely, as her sailing craft have 
weathered many a sea. We. have 
faith in the hardy qualities of her 
citizens and the versalitity of Amer- 
ican enterprise. The light will 
break. © Flags to the full mast al-

The United States treaty with 
Japan expires July 17. It is opera- 
tive for one year thereafter, actually 
becoming inoperative in 1912. Our 
State Department has opened nego- 
tiations and if it were not for the 
omission of the exclusion clause the 
treaty would be drafted and accept- 
er without much friction. The yel- 
low peril is evidently no myth to the 
Pacific coast.. The school incident 
there has not helped. It is difficult 
for New England to understand the 
bitter prejudice of the pacific coast. 
Japan is as anxious to discourage 
emigration as we are to prevent the 
wrong sort of immigration. The 
struggle of the Pacific coast for the 
restoration of the exclusion clause 
will be watched with interest. 
Houston A. Thomas, for. two 
years a member of the board: of sel- 
ectmen of Hamilton, will not be a 
candidate for re-election at the 
town meeting in March, giving as 
his reason that he is not to be at 
Hamilton next summer, as he plans 
to go to Europe. Mr. Thomas is 
one of our few summer residents 
who have evineed a sufficiently deep 
interest in town affairs to run for 
office. He has proved a very effi- 
cient member of the board, in Ham- 
ilton. Too bad there are not more 
like him! 
The House of Representatives has 
given legislation leave to withdraw, 
deciding that a marriage license is a 
public document. Publicity is safety. 
If the contracting parties are asham- 
ed of the alliance they should not 
wait until they are not. Secret mar- 
riage too often preludes a nauseous 
~ scandal to be aired without secrecy 
ina divorce court. Marriage is 
honorable among all men and is not 
to be entered into unadvisedly or 
lightly or seeretly. 
Nahant is to have a new Town 
Hall, and if the plans submitted are 
adopted a $66,000 brick or stone 
building on land worth $12,000, to 
be furnished for $6,000 more,—a 
total of $84,000, will be built in the 
near future. The building includes 
a hall with a seating capacity of 
600. . 
Meanwhile, may we suggest that 
Manchester’s need of a new Town 
Hall does not diminish as the years 
advance.

North Shore people who visit Mt. 
Washington and take the trip up 
the steep incline may be interested 
to know that the trains which wend 
their toilséme way up the side of 
the mountain are to be equipped 
with electricity instead of steam, if 
the plans of the Boston & “Maine 
railroad announced at Bretton 
Woods, N. H., Monday are carried 
out. A power plant to be located 
at the base of the mountains is to 
furnish electricity for the railroad 
and also for a searchlight of high 
power which it is proposed to install 
at the summit. 
The Panama Canal ought by all 
means to be fortified. It is our right 
and duty. Under the Clayton-Bulwer 
treaty such fortification was forbid- 
den. In the millenium it will be well 
to consider all nations amiable. You 
can caress a house cat into content- 
ment, but a hardy hand and a well 
primed fire arm is a great comfort in 
the jungle. 
President Taft’s message on reci- 
procity lacks the finish and thunder 
of a previous President, but it is 
clear, diplomatic and convincing. 
Whatever the fortunes of. the bill 
are, the President’s frank message 
and spirit of good will will do much 
to bind the countries together. 
union there is strength. 
Think of it; Reciprocity, and with- 
out Foss, too. 
Cheer up Gloucester, Maybe 
t’aint so. 
Don’t shirk! Work; it’s easier. 
Monthly Report of Christian Army. 
The 20th monthly report of the 
Christian Army work operated in 
Salem, Beverly, Danvers, Peabody 
and other nearby towns shows that 
a very helpful and far-reaching 
work has been done among the par- 
ticular ‘class of people it aims to 
reach. 
All who are interested in this 
practical philanthrophy ean send 
donations of money or clothing, the 
latter particularly needed, to H. 
Burton, Rescue Home, 129 Derby 
street, Salem. 
The all-round man may also be 
square.
