mite Operators.
The Visitor Foresees Chain Of Circumstances
That May Lead to Universal
Republic in Europe.

The cloud in the East, no bigger than q
mans hand. is about the same size as that
which convulsed Europe nearly at the same
time that California was struggling for the
light-that Is to say in 1884 In those
years there was military activity in Eu-
rope of the kind which despots invoke to
crush bold break for popular liberty.
Vienna and Paris were in the same fix. Ii
Max O'Rell is to be believed-and he prob
ably knows better than any one else among
the visiting lecturers of European origin
there is going to be trouble in the European
capitals very, very soon.
Yesterday when a CALL reporter asked
Max ORell-otherwIsa Blouet, an esteemed
citizen of the French republic whether the
latest exploits of the dynamtards in Paris
agreed with his preconception Of the SUI
premacy of the French people among the
nations he accepted the challenge in a friend
ly way.
Il know nothing more than read in The
newspapers Of this city," said the versatile
Freuchman.
PREDICTS A REVOLUTION.
But will say one thing without hest
tatlon. Before ten years are over such a
revolution will occur in Europe as will sur
prise the world. 1t will be quite independ-
ent of politics. The dynamite affair of
OF 1t. 1t will be great social revolution
on the basis that every man who receives
money will have to give an accounting as to
how be has earned it. The time is going by
OF sinecures and money without work.
Those who receive large salaries Will have
TO render an equivalent to the community.
The people will insiss that those who derive
incomes from the land shall give an account
OF their stewardship. Even in England
that principle is beginning to prevail.
I'm fnin
who derive an income from religion, and
who are the most conservative people In
this country, will one day admit that the
land will never be sold forever and ever
that Is to say. that it will eventually revert
to the people.
II am not socialist, and 1 do not mind
admitting that have no solution TO pro-
pose. / am not political economist. But
there can be no doubt that the problem will
receive critical solution.
ENGLAND AND AMERICA
Just here the conversation was switched
off 10 Mr.. O'Rell's comments on the English
ana American people, and he was candidly
asked for an accounting as regards his own
countrymen Oh the comparative basis.
Il viii say this" he replied; ''the French
people are the happiest people at home.
This dynamite business is an accident. IL
has occurred in London and in Chicago.
Happiness is the result of satisfaction with
a little. When we have a little money we
keep it iudicously invested. We are a
home-loving and home-abiding people. AS
TO education, in certain degree we are be-
hind America; that is TO say, as regards the
diffusion of public education. But in pro-
portion TO the population we have more ex-
amples of higher education than in Amer
lea, particularly as regards the beaux arts.
In that we arc facile princeps. In music
the Germans are ahead of u.s.
"As to the dynamite matter | hardly
know what TO say. The Chicago dynamiters
were organized. l don't know if this is the
case in Paris. One nation is no better or
worse than another. There is different
method, that is ALL
