street anxiety is writ large, for she must
not pick up her skirts, and she may stumble
over them. The least effort at haste offers
a spectacle to beholders.
The new skirt has to be guarded against
bagging at the knees as carefully as n
mans trousers. Another distressing pos

The exaggerated tightness of the skirt is
not inconsistent with an increase in the

fact a new overskirt, which, to carry out
the pseudo-classic idea is called a peplum,

puffy knots and bows are the prominent
feature of neckwear. The knot is newer
than the bow, but admits of less variation.
1t is an art to tie a huge Liberty silk scarf

heard them making d.srespectful remarks
about his wife; he heard their persistent NJ

forwarded. So he was left despairing until,
wild, he was his guards plaything. Why,
they even took 1t on themselves to deny
him access 10 a narrow court, where he
could exercise by walking. For days they
locked him IN his cabin and barred the
doors ana windows, until the heat drove

Greed.

1t is avarice, and not malice, that
actuates men to enslave their fellow
man. Greed is at the bottom of
tyranny in every instance. 1t is
greed that would battle the Philip
mos into bringing subjugation, and
hold them vassals. The same dis
position would surrender the last
remnant of the fundamental prinoi-
ples of the Declaration of indie
pendenoe, to crafty it's Unsuitable
thirst.
The time honored principles, the
very foundation upon which Amer
lean independence and liberty have
been builded, would be bartered for
gold, and the very birthright of
American freemen would be saori-
fced to dreams of empire.
1t is greed that is fast transform
ing the grandest government that
the world has ever known, from
shedding it's beneficence upon the
people, for whom it was instituted,
to "a money oligarchy which is tight
ening it's grasp on the substance of
the great common masses.
This Same power is now calling
for retirement of tho idea of gov
eminent which inspired the fathers
when they launched this Republic
upon it's great and magnificent
career.
Let the American people beware.
The purpose of this Republic can
not be swerved without disaster and
ultimate destruction. You can not
surrender to the powers of greed
and avarice and preserve to your
selves and to your posterity the
blessing of peace and happiness"
which the founders of this govern
ment intended for you.

Strnck the IIeY Note.


Bryan struck the true American
key note in his Minnesota speech
when he said:
eff independence is moro desir-
able to our people than colonial
policy, who is there, or what is
there to prevent the recognition
of Philippine independence 1t
is absurd to say that the United
States can be transformed from a
republic into an empire without
consulting the voters
"The Imperialists may be willing
to deny to the Filipionos the right
to govern themselves, but they can
not deny to the American people
the right to determine the policy
to be pursued by the United States
in the settlement of the Philippine
question.
Until the people express them
selves we can only guess at their
views, but is itnot safer to suppose
that they will adhere to the ideas
and policies of century than to
assume they will go back TO the
creed of kings and to the gospel
by force?"
