quer the opposing elements In the
neighborhood. The initial step Is the
uniforming A warrior must be armed
cap-a-pie before he goes out to meet
even the curious small boys that hang
around the doors.
To dress a campaign warrior Is a
matter OF price and endeavor with the
committee having the dressing In hand.
Manufacturers have been busy for
months getting ready to meet these
committees, and shop windows are as
luminous at night as the Transparent
cies they offer. A battle AK, gun
and a transparency may be enough
for a boys club, but men want more
elaborate equipment. They must be
dressed from peak to toe. Uniforms
of all styles are made for them, and
to ask the price Of them is to set clerk
rafting off prices as though handle
had been lifted from a Photographic
machine.
The most extensive political uniform
outfit can be purchased for 81. This
is a very expensive outfit, and Is bought
only by gilt-edged clubs with either
a fashionable neighborhood to parade
or a woman's auxiliary club to adj
mire. A complete outfit Of an expens-
i've suit in Prince Albert coat, Il pair
of trousers, belt, lantern, battle
AK, a shake and leggins. OF these the
Prince Albert costs So; the trousers
S1.5O, made either of white duck or
felt of any color; the belt, Of white
canvas, is % cents; the white duck leg
gins % cents, and the shake, $1.25. The
remainder goes for torch and battle
AK.
A cheaper uniform, and one that
looks almost as good, comes within
$115. There Is helmet costing 80
cents, a belt, gun charged with a
flag upon the end, and flannel shirt.
The last Is stamped with the name and
face of the candidate. "Vote for A."

Il N L.. |.
not need to 90 back Ave centuries to wit
ness such . state Of affairs. for II exists In
Russia to-day. In the land Of the Csar.
the Middle Ages and their ideas still pre-
vail; Russia has not yet emerged from
the darkness Of the feudal system. 1t 70
true that the Emperor Alexander issued
decree abolishing serfdom, and thereby
technically emancipated over 20.O00.OO
serfs, but emancipation, to men UMPIRE
pared to take advantage Of It, II a mock
cry, and to the present day the great
masses Of Russian peasantry are free only
In name. They may not be sold with the
estates, but without means to move else
where, without the knowledge that they
can better their condition by moving, and
under the belief that they would be
brought back II they did go, the name of
freedom becomes hollow delusion. In
fact, though they have the name, 1t Is all
in reality that they do have, and to all
intents and purposes they are just as
much in slavery now as before the Cars
decree.
The bulk Of Russian laborers are agri-
cultural, and In this vast empire agricul-
ture is carried on In fashion only less
primitive than In Palestine or Egypt. In
models Of plows; In Russia there IL but
one, and that one CLUMSY affair which,
from time immemorial, has been In use
among the peasantry, nor can they be per-
suaded to change 1t for better, for of all
human beings the Russian peasant Is the
most conservative. He is now what his
fathers were 800 years ago; wears the
same kind Of clothing they wore, keeps
~uk~ l.
mer under the same kind Of sheepskin
cloak that was In common use all over
Europe In the days Of the Empress Anna,
and cannot be induced to make a change,
for what was good enough for his father
is good enough for him.
In the country districts sort of COM
mune system, apparently contrived with
extreme ingenuity to keep the people poor,
Is In vogue almost everywhere. The farm
ers live in a village, having a sort Of local
self-government, which every year or two
partitions out the fields among the popu-
lation. making rcassignment so frequent
ly that no farmer feels any particular in
terest in the permanent Improvement of
the ground allotted to him, for he knows
that in year or two he will be given an
other field. and that the rewards of his i'm
provcments, should he make any, will be
reaped by another. The result is, no one
improves the ground to which ne is as
signed; each strives to get from it all he
can during the season he holds it, and to
put on it as little labor and expense as
possible. All the agricultural community
of Russia thus. after fashion, lives from
hand to mouth, no one feeling called on
TO make any especial exertion, for when
a man grows old the community is bound
to take care of him, and one Of the strong
est incentives to providence ana self-de
nying exertion is taken away.
