Mr.. Donnelly errs in attempting to fix
the responsibility for his failure in poll
tics upon Deity. God makes authors and
editors and other good men, including
preachers sometimes, but it is little short
OF rank impiety to impute to Him respon-
slb1lIty for politicians and lawyers.
Nature, providence, fate, whatever the
name of the power which shapes men s
destinies. snd furnishes them with the in
tellectual and moral equipment for the
work they are designated to do, never
intended Donnelly for a politician.-Min-

hymn, America" shows how close this
venerable poet stands, to the hearts of

when he has made his appearance at some
public ceremony, he has needed a special
lntroduction except to the elders, his con-

Senator Davis, in an interview with the
Pioneer Press yesterday, expresses the
opinion that the state is urgently in need
of new constitution; that we have
gone on patching up the one adopted in
sidered amendments till it amounts to al
most a deformity. There Is no doubt that
he is right about this. Since. our consti-
tuition was adopted many OF the states
have adopted new constitutions, notably
Pennsylvania, California and New York
which would furnish models on which to
work. He favors a larger legislative
body, especially a more numerous house
of representatives. We are not quite sure
that he is altogether right about this

No Thoughtful American can conceal
from himself the fact that the whole
trend OF American college management is
wrong. Men who do really receive a
humanizing and liberaIizing education at
college get it not because of but in spite
or the system--a system which makes
learning. enlightenment, the liberal and
humanizing arts and sciences, a consid-
GRAFTON secondary to the advertising to
be obtained when boys, who have only a
few years for study are taken from their
books and sent around the country to
break their foolish heads, to stamp on
each others ribs, to gouge out each
others eyes, in order that the college
managers may profit by the notoriety thus
achieved. eScW York World.
