There IS a growing Unrest among
all the European monarchies over
the unbridled greed for gold terri
tory that is SHOWN by the British
colonists in every quarter of the

unfortunate results in stirring up
strife among otherwise peaceful
nations in order that under the
disturbances of revolution that
greed may find its richest harvest.
This is not wise thing for any ma

A Very Old Couple.

Mrs. Amelia Darwin, aged 103
years, died at Black River Falls,
Wis.,, last week. She had lived in
that vicinity for about fifty years,
and her age appears to be well
authenticated. Her husband, who
survives her, is reputed to be 107
years old. They were very gener-
ally known as the oldest couple
in the west. Mrs. Darwin was
born in Montreal in 1882 and was
married to Darwin in 1907. Mr..
Darwin is very feeble now, and it
is not expected that he will long
survive his wife.

A Curious Coincidence.

In a peculiar manner the stolen
watch OF j. F. Rymer, of Bradford,
Pa, returned to him. A man
called at Mr.. Rymer's house few
days after the watch was stolen
and handed him a small package,
saying that a friend had asked
him to deliver it. Mr.. Rymer
opened the package and was as
tonished to find that it contained
his stolen watch. He quickly
opened the door again, intending
to catch the man who had given
him the package, but the messen-
ger had disappeared.

ROOSEVELT VS.. cowINa.


In his charge to the grand jury
in New York, Judge Cowing says
that during the past six months
crime has been greatly on the in
crease. This statement is denied
by Police Commissioner Roosevelt.
1t will be interesting to note the
outcome of this difference Of opin-
ion and see who tells the truth. II
the judge is correct, then the pious
methods of Parkhurst and Roose-
welt are not approved in the result.
II the commissioner tells the truth,
the saddle Is on the other horse.
Until there is something more
definite known it will be in order
to credit the statements of the
judge, who in the discharge Of his
sworn duties states to the jury, to
whom is given the office OF inquiry
into crimes, that crime Is on the in
crease. Such statement, unsup-
ported by facts would at once lay
him liable to the gravest suspicion
and is not to be accepted without
evidence. On the other hand, there |
is natural tendency in human
nature to defend itself and its pet |
theories and chosen methods. This
is the position that Roosevelt is in,
and his statements at best are on.
~ those of an Interested party.
There is a real interest attaching
10 this matter outside of the par
ocular case cited. The whole prob
EN- OF city government is at issue,
Ind the question grows insistent.
It is not theory but a condition
hat confronts the preservers of
he peace in all centers of popula-
ion. The one question is the pre-
ervation Of the peace in the surest
md most economical way, and
With the least possible interference
With the liberty of the citizen.
This is the question. The pecu-
lar religious or moral views
I the individual members of
he city government, have moth
4
ng to do with the question. Ths
lights Of the citizens, their largest
Iberty consistent with thessafety
I person and property, these are
ne questions that municipal gov
has to consider. II Judge !
owing is right, then the Park 9
urst-Roosevelt plan is failnre,
nd one not to be commended. If,
q the other hand, it is not fail
re, and crime is really dimin- =
he'd thereby, and the property
nd persons of citizens are more
ecure, the burden of proof is on
be opponents of their system, to l
how that too much liberty Is J
acrificed for the amount Of safety :
njoyed. The controversy is be. /
ween an ideal government and a
tactical one. The ideal one being
ased on certain moral and relig- ,
ous ideas; the practical one on
