said not winds were blowing which were
cooking the corn In the fields, and 1t was
inferred that uncut wheat would not es-

reports were disputed later. Northwest

$l6,354, showing net revenue of 1854. APP
parently there is not an element wanting
to complete the success of the new plan.
The same is true of the municipal water
works, and as result of the saving of ex-
pense and the net revenue from the two
plants the tax levy has been reduced from
$1.20 on the 500 to Sill, and will be further
reduced next year Such a demonstration
as this places the question of municipal
ownership of light and water plants out
side the field of discussion for, under like
conditions and management, what Logans
port has done can be done by every other
city. One important condition is the man
agement, which, in the case of Logansport,
has been free from jobbery or favoritism
and first-class from a business point of
view. In this it furnishes a further lesson
as to the Importance of placing all city
governments on a strictly business basis
and introducing in the management of
their affairs the same business methods
that are used in the management of other
corporations. Logansport has set an eX-
ample which should be initiated by every
enterprising city in Indiana.

REVIVAL OF MosLEMIsM.

One thing which the Graeco-Turkish war
and the persistent occupation of Thessaly
has done Is to quicken the spirit of Mo-
hammedanism. For years Europe has acted
upon the assumption that the power of
Mohammedansm has been slowly dying out.
AT least it seems to have forgotten that,
scattered as it is, the Mohammedan world
contains 20O,O00O00 of people, everyone of
whom is made fanatic by his faith. Since
the Turk has been permitted to capture and
hold Thessaly there has been an apparent
Weakening of the Moslem. When he has
been in the minority he has been silent and
apparently obedient, but as soon as the
Sultan shows his hand in Europe the
Moslem in India and elsewhere ceases to
be passive. In Calcutta the Moslem popu-
lation has resisted the police, until 1900
were slain or wounded. And yet the Hindoo
Moslem has been accounted as entirely sub
missive to the power of Great Britain This
change can only be accounted for on the
ground that the concessions which Chris
tan Europe has made to Turkey are ac-
cepted by the Mohammedans as evidence
of a weakness of the powers which have
held them in check many years. These
people know force as the only controlling
power in the world When, therefore they
see that the massacre of Christians in Ar
menia is not punished, they assume that
it is because Europe has not the power to
prevent it. When they see the powers
taking the side of Turkey in the Cretan
affair and permitting the invasion of Thes-
sally the Moslems assume that the power
that has held them in check all over the
world has been broken. Fanatics there
can be little wonder that in these evidences
of success they foresee that the time is
al hand when the Nohammedan shall again
rule the world.
Look at it as we may, we cannot dis
guise the fact that Mohammedanism is
just now a growing power. In India it is
said to have encroached upon Buddhism
because Moslemism is the religion of
equality and not of caste. Every Euro
pean power with possessions in the East
has hosts of these fanatical religionists
among it's subjects. Great Britain has the
larger number of these relgionists, but
Russia has in Asia 100000 of them, and
twice as many are neighbors. A fair pro-
portion of the 100 100000 African Mussu-
mans dwell in French territory, and they
are responsible for the disasters to French
arms in that quarter.
The Sultan poses in Thessaly at the pres
ent time rather as the commander of the
faithful than the autocrat of Turkey. 1t
is that fact which gives him power and
which makes the situation serious. Once
make it possible for the Sultan to fuse the
200 900, 900 of fanatical Mosems sufficiently
to use them to resist the powers in the
East and it will require a concert of the
powers to hold their possessions in Asia.

THE DANGER OF TOO MUCH.

A writer in Annals of the American Acad-
envy for July makes it very clear that hav
ing too much is as great an evil as having
too little. The pinching of the vital forces
is the result of being underfed, but de-
struction by dissipation is the equally sure
result Of being overfed. Some time since a
foreign observer said that overnutrition
threatened the efficiency of the American
workman quite as much as the lack Of suf-
ficient food was destructive of the eff
ficiency of workmen in the countries where
existence is a protracted struggle to es-
cape starvation. The theory which this OBJ
server undertook to establish is that men
and women whose incomes enable them to
partake of all the creature comforts with
out limit will become the victims of surfeit
particularly if they are the descendants Of
a generation or two of those who were able
to secure the barest necessities of life. The
faculties of the latter were sharpened by
the activity and effort necessary to obtain
a frugal living. change of vocation and
more abundant means to secure food and
ease bring TO men and women as marked
a change as that which takes the Texas
steer from the plains and puts him into the
place for fattening, where he is fed almost
TO surfeit without exertion
II is probable that the change from ac-
tive life in the open air to the city, with its
confinements and the change of living will
in a generation or two change the peculiar
tiles Of families. They may have more OF

what are called advantages, more of those
luxuries which make civilization complex,
and a more harmonious contour may take
the place of that angularity which marks
those who strive in the fields, but If they
have not made a wise use of the advan-
tages of the new position they are not so
vigorous intellectually, physically and NOR
ally as We're their predecessors who had to
contend for the necessaries of life and knew
little of it's Injuries.
Three generations from shirt sleeves to
shirt sleeves" has come to be a saying
which tells the story of the rise and fall
of families in this country. 1t is true. with
some exceptions, but it does not tell the
cause, which is, in most cases, that those
who come suddenly into wealth labor under
the delusion that idleness is the end of
wealth and turn their sons over to it, who
more surely are destroyed by dissipation,
or having too much, than If they had been
left to contend for a bare subsistence by
harsh toll. Frequently. instead of leaving
those to wear shirt sleeves in the third gen.
GRAFTON, the direct inheritors of wealth so
wear themselves out in trying to absorb all
that money and idIeness can secure, that no
generation succeeds. They not only dissi-
pate the wealth inherited, but all the phys
ical vigor of a family, so that, by mere ex-
haustion of it's vital forces, it becomes ex-
tinct
1t need not be assumed that physical and
intellectual decline are the necessary re-
suits of abundance. The main effort of the
writer alluded to is to enforce the lesson
that with abundance there should be wis
dom to use it wisely. The difficulty comes
in that ignorance which measures human
happiness by what the individual can con-
sumo and in a life of idIeness. When
abundance comes to be regarded the
means of development and as bringing to
the possessOr greater responsibilities to
ciety, the possession is blessing. The
danger of too much is in trying to it all.
And yet, it is too much in the way of
creature comforts and dissipation that is
the cause OF the general unrest. Put into
simple language it means we want every
thing except work of any sort. Give it to
those who crave it, and the human race
would be reduced to the few who have
learned to use an abundance wisely.
