James II. Southall was until about
eighteen months ago chief clerk in the

of issuing time checks to laborers on
the government work. From discount

1t is more than likely that the edi-

in Europe and America. We present
brief review Of it in another column.
1t describes the motives and actions OF
men. and Of popular assemblies Of all
kinds and descriptions. and shows the
difference between their actions and
the actions of single individuals.
Anyone who has often stood as a
looker-on in a public meeting, either
religious or secular, or who has
watched mob in the streets. or has
studied legislative proceedings, is
aware of the queer things done by
groups Of men.
Jurymen constantly present the
most curious phases of these crowd"
alterations. Judges with long exper-
fence are repeatedly surprised at YER
diets which are opposed to sense and
reason. At the same time verdicts as
rule are just Col. Higgenson in a
recent sketch Of his legislative career,
speaks of the moods of the Senate and
House. A bill would be rejected one
day, and within a week would be
passed with enthusiasm.
The author of this valuable book re-
fers to the crowd" in politics. and
the instructive power that certain men
, have to move the masses. As he says,
it is usually found that only men of a
| low order of morals have this power.
They appreciate, themselves, the value
/ of catch words. The curious rise and
fall of the American party in the
ffties, a party that for a time dcminat-
ed the country, was largely due to the
watch word: put none but Ameri-
cans on guard"
In the Taylor presidential campaign
if we are correct, regarding the date
the boundary line between the United
States and Canada was in dispute. Oul
Government insisted that the true
boundary was the fifty-fourth degree
and forty minutes parallel of latitude
Great Britain disputed it. A clever ora
tor coined the phrase: "ffty-fOur fort!
or fight" Used as climax in politica
stump speech, it aroused an enthus
iasm that rejected any reasoning OF
the subject.
Bismarck had an abiding contemp
for the opinions of the masses of men
because, in his experience, they wer

WHY THE IMPREss7

Painted w oods Lake has long
ago been noted as the scene o1
many escapades and romances
in the days when the red men
held high carnival around its
ever changing environments
Then came the bordermen who
had their Bush mystery; the
French Joe mystIy and the
freight pile" mystery. Then
came the mirage of New Jeru-
sulem that stood out upon the
plain on it's east bank. The
old town on Jordan's banks
never poised more proudly
than this new town in a new
land. The yellow waters of Gal
lice never was more beautiful
to the children of the Jacobs and
Issaics Of old than was the blue
waters of Painted Woods Lake
to those who gathered around
about Lipp Shenck and his
companions as they dreamed
away the Passover. But elu-
sive as the mirage. all has long
since passed away and the ro-
wing antiqurian when now he
stumbles upon the square
earthen dngways Of New Jeru-
ssulem is as much in lore's hid
en- secrets as though delving in
the great earthen rings that
mark a forgotten epoch in
the buried chronicle of the
red Manda1is.
Painted Woods creek that
feeds the lake from the east
makes it's way along through
4succsssions Of natural dams
until the plains open out wide
and low. Beyond It's first feed
the Yanktone comes out
-bubbling water that never
freezes holy water in truth to
