A socialistio Commonwealth.

The Australians are state socialists,
and although their new constitution
proposes to recognize the independence
of the states in a far higher degree than
that in which it has been allowed to
exist in Canada. yet it vests the virtual
control of the whole railway system of
Australia in the federal power, which
will be shock to your American minds,
whether north or south of the Canadian
border line.
The great majority Of Australians
have confidence in the power of the
state to do much for the people, and in
the wisdom of its exercising this power.
You in the United States, the Cana
dams across their border, the CONT
mental governments, are far behind
even old England in this respect, and
it would be of advantage to the world
that Australia, which is much before
us all, should have the opportunity of
putting its doctrines into practice upon
the largest scale. Sir Charles Dixie in
Forum.

Jules Guthridge, now in charge of the
New York Herald bureau, has come up
to this dignity in ten years. A country
boy, like most of the Washington cor
respondents. he came here in 1888 as
assistant on the Chicago Times staff.
Three years service as correspondent Of
the Chicago News was followed by a
connection with the New York Herald
bureau, and a few months ago he was
promoted to be chief Of The Herald's
staff. The Herald has always made
speciality of Washington news. 1t has
always spent and continues to spend
more money in procuring news here than
any other paper In the winter it has
from four to six men in its service, and
it pays the highest prices for news which
any one may have to sell. Guthridge
succeeds Nordhof and Preston, two vet
eran correspondents, but he is in some
respects the best man The Herald ever
had here. Few men have more intimate
friends among high officials than he.

FOOD on TAP.

Peripatetic Kitchens to Flood New yorl
and Cooks to he Dethroned.
Turn the crank and get dinner.
That's about what it's como to now
For years we have been turning thu
crank and getting gas and water, and
of late heat has been brought along un
der the streets and into our homes, but
now the climax Is to be capped, Il
seems. Food Is to be brought to us In
a sort of movable kitchen.
A certain food supply company,
which originally broke loose In Boston,
is about to erupt this city. promises
much and alleges that It has fulfilled
even more in the "City of Beans"
For instance, you can order dinner
served you in the park or on an IL"
station stairway, and prompt to the
minute there It will be.
Moreover, they promise that It will
be good. It will come in n queer
shaped vehicle and be served by man
with progressive ideas.
To supply out OF the way places with
meals is not the main idea of the
scheme. 1t proposed to invade homes
and abolish kitchens This is direct
blow at the great army of cooks, who,
up to date, have reigned supreme.
They have had us in their entire keep
ing-not only our health, but our do
nestle happiness as well; and now, at
last, they are to be undone.
Just think of it
No more "What shall we have for
dinner, dearl"
No more UNDERGONE fish and burned
up mutton.
No more dinners on sardines because
the market man had forgotten to send
the roast of beef around-and that al
ways happens, you know, when you
have asked Smith home to take "pot
luck" with you, trusting that there
would be something especially good to
eat.
No more vexed wives with red faces,
burned fingers and an inclination to be
snappy, all because some little pastry
did not come out just right.
The food-on-tap company is to have
a number of kitchens located in differ
ent parts of the city, and from these
kitchens send out supply wagons rugged
like humble bee, with hot and cold
ind. From one end of this wonderful
wagon you can draw out hot coffee and
rom the other end ice cream.
