Very Advanced Theories Are Held In
Regard to Children.
The address before the Suffrage as
ISOLATION recently of Mrs. Charlotte
Perkins Stetson on the Economic
Basis of the Woman Question" was
we'll reasoned, says the Boston Tran
script. Mrs. Stetson's declaration that
wife should be economically indie
pendent of her husband has an Origi-
nal sound, but in practical life thou
sands and thousands of American
women who do their own work." in
colloqiual phrase, are wont to con-
slider that they contribute an import
ant economic fraction in the support
of genuine home. Women of inner
tied incomes and women who earn
money in the various professions,
trades and crafts now open to t@em
often contribute money instead OF
work to the support of the home.
Mrs. Stetson's plan of increased wage
earning for wives and more care OF
children in child-gardens is scarcely
as "advanced" as at first glance 1t may
seem. The most radical and really adj
vanced students of child-culture are
approaching nearer to the simplicities
of nature in regard to the care and
teaching of little children. They are
in consequence putting infinitely more
conscious responsibility for the chill
dren's rearing upon parents, both
fathers and mothers. The ancient
Athenian idea of the rearing of chill
dren by the state Is not in the modern
Athens highest creed of child culture.
Mrs. Stetson's saying that it is too
much nowadays to expect a man to
provide for his wife and family Is good
economics to the extent that 1t Is good
morals. Granted that it Is improper
to marry for living, either for
woman or man, it is equally bad eco
nomics for either to fail In contribut-
ing in the making of genuine home,
in money or in work, according to
worldly condition, in addition to the
various virtues expected Of both.

I own cow and I'll wager any rea-
sonable amount that there's no finer
cow in the state. Living In the sub
urbs as do, I have ample room for
her and she gets the best of care. My
neighbor has a cow that looks very
much like mine, but he keeps bell on
his so that he can locate her at almost
any time of the day and night when
she's not in her stall. Before daylight
the other morning heard bell in my
cabbage patch. There was that regu-
lar 'tinkle, tinkle' which told me
that the COW was browsing and that

consumed at about the rate of a head

there would be trouble. I rallied on
the scene with the dog and buggy
whip. When I tried to set the dog on
the intruder he didn't seem to have
much heart in the business, but
crack or two with the whip set him
to work and We made it very interest
ing as long as my wind held out. We
pushed the cow so that she took part
of the fence with her in getting
through it and we kept right at her
heels for over quarter of mile while
she beloved, the dog barked and I
piled the whip. When we returned
she followed us right up and just I
was arranging to give her hotter
dose than ever my wife recognized her
as our cow Some one had put bell
on her and turned her into the cab

it, but want you to find out if it

es the title of each song and the name

which he shows in his manner, and its
apparently impressive effect upon the
audience, gives the American a strange
sensation. He doesn't know whether
to accept the whole thing as serious or
as farce. 1t is always the same old
tune which has been sung to genera

word and sentiment to suit the times.

Oar Reese meanwhile does not

to think that he is in a Fletcher
of a fix. Should Collins or Eustis
be nominated, southern Minnesota
would be almost sure to rise up at
the tail end of the convention
and demand clerk of the supreme
court.
The above from Jerry J. in the
Minneapolis Journal in speaking
of the political situation. In all
probability southern Minnesota
will ask for the position in any
event. From the present outlook
Dan Shells support is such that
he will be pretty certa n to secure
the nomination if he goes after it.
He has many friends all over the
state that would like to see him
become a candidate and the num-
Der that would support him are
multiplied many times; this being
the case and he being qualified
there is no reason why he should
not be an acceptable candidate.

sCHLEN's REHABILITATION.

A very interesting question viii arise
as to whom Official credit shall be given
for the destruction of Cervera's fleet.
Sampson was In command Of the de-
stroying squadron. but as a matter of
fact, ne was absent from the scene and
did not return until the second in COM
mand. Commodore Schiey, had done all
the mischief.
At the beginning Of the war Schley
was in command OF the flying squadron.
which was intended to scour the waters
around the many islands in the Carib-
bean sea and intercept Cervera's fleet.
which was known to be on it's way to
Cuba. Sampson was placed in COM
mand OF the squadron which was to
blockade Havana Schley had a very
difficult task TO perform. II was not
known, of course, whether Ceryera
would attempt to make a descent on
some part of the Atlantic coast, whether
he would make for Havana, or go south
to Santiago. although the proba bilities
were greatly in favor Of his taking one
of the two first named routes. Nobody
supposed that such an utterly absurd
policy would be pursued as to send the
Spanish fleet into a land-locked harbor
like Santiago.
For some reason that was the policy
decided upon, and there was a feeling
Of disappointment that the Spanish ad-
miral should have evaded Schley, and
this was aggravated by the claims OF
the Spanish government that the ar
rival of the squadron at Santiago was
part of a skillfuliy designed maneuver.
1t was unjust to Schley TO condemn
him for failure; the great Nelson suf-
fered more bitter disappointment. but
the British government knew him too
well 10 supersede him. Although il was
bine the squadron before Santiago
in one command. instead of d.
viding IL between Schley and Sampson.
there was an impression created that Il
suhordinated Schley, who, as a COM
modore. was OF higher rank than Samp-
son.
There was indeed a poetic justice in
the happy accident which left Schley in
command during SIMPSONS absence.
and gave him the opportunity 10 smash
the feet which had been the cause OF
his humiliation.

Juan Of Austria was . year trying to
bring about the action which eventually
took place at Lepanto: and the great
Howe was compelled to have his feet
reftted three times and be exhausted
two years before he succeeded in
forcing the enemy to battle. Our own
ships chased the Alabama for two years
before they found her and the Kear-
sarge was at last able to bring on
conclusive fight Of the Mole Of Cher
bourg
Taking all the past history of naval
warfare as criterion. the achievements
OK Sampson and Dewey are absolutely
marvellous. II would have been a great
victory even had we suffered the loss
Of part Of our fleet, but that such utter
annihiIation should be accompanied
without any damage worth mentioning
to our warships and with only one man
killed makes this naval war the most
remarkable in the entire history OF the
world.
We knew that our navy was more
than a match for Spain. but some OF the
Spanish ships are the equal Of some OF
ours, and 1t seems incredible that not
one of them should have been able to
fire one shot that would have caused
enough damage to have given the Span
iards an excuse for saying that one of
our vessels had been disabled.
The American people have now learned
the value of a navy. If by the sacrifice
Of stamp on a check or deed and a
slight tax on tobacco and beer we can
add to the advantages which We already
possess in naval defense. surely no
American will withhold 1t.
We can now begin to realize the pride
Of Englishmen in their splendid navy
and the glory it is to be mistress Of the
seas. Although the army of Great Brit
ain has been great source of strength,
the patriotism of that country has al
ways manifested itself in songs ex-
pressive Of qualification at the achieve
ments of the navy. Britannia Rules
the Waves" and England. the Pride OF
the Ocean," are but types of the songs
which have thrilled the British heart
for many a year.
We have little to fear from an armed
invasion OF our shores SO long as we
have an adequate fleet with which TO
guard our ports.

that the flagship Brooklyn alone at nrst

at Mobile for thirty years, it may have
