In tennis are a credit to the western
girl, 50 thoroughly In touch with the
new expression Of what is best and
whOlesOmest for young men and
women. The spirit and vigor of her
playing have won the admiration Of
the large audiences who have watched
the games on the Chicago courts and
her Nebraska friends are proud of the
distinction she has so pluckily won.
In regard to the admission OF new
territory the ''Saunterer" suggests:
l suggest that constitutional
amendment should provide either, a.
That no territory shall be admitted
as state except by a two-thirds vote
Of the citizens Of the United States at
a general election, or t2) That no ter
ritOry shall hereafter be admitted as a
state except by the Affirmative votes OF
two successive congresses, votes by
two different sessions Of the same
congress to be considered invalid.
Perhaps the two votes Of congress
would be a sufficient protection, as a
popular election would, of course, in
tervene. II so, the plan would be less
cumbersome and expensive than vote
by the people. Ny present purpose is
to suggest the subject for discussion
rather than to advocate any specific
plan. We are about to wade in very
deep waters, and We should keep tight
hold of the life lines OF the constitu-
ton.
One OF the unquestiOnable adyan.
tages OF the present war is that It will
retire Stephen Crane, who went to
Greece to report the GrecO-Turkish
mill for New York paper and sent
back copy filed, not with descriptions
of the soldiers and battlefields. but of
the effect which the color of blood and
the eyes Of dying me1 had upon him
self, of the color Of a Greecian sunset.
OF the hundred irrelevant trifies which
trivial mind will hold while about
him men are being killed and nations
subdivided. The Red Badge of Courage
is a subjective account Of a battle
fought by cowardly yokel, SO occu-
pied with the effect upon himself Of
color and other mems wounds that he
ran away and when he met a diving
soldier forebOre to give him a drink
In order to have time to analyze his
own morbid and coward soul. When
the book appeared men who had never
been 10 war exclaimed that it was a
realistic account Of a battle and that
the soldiers on both sides in the civil
war were like the feeble boy to whom
Stephen Crane had loaned his own
egotistic retreating soul. Now that.
Americans have seen war, have seen
boys, cheerfully and altogether oh
