Running street-cars by compresaed
air is getting to be quite a feature.
The system has been longest in oper-
alton in Nantes, France. 1t has been
used there ten years. 1t is also used
in Berne, Switzerland, and yincennes,
France. Experiments are being made
in two or three American cities. Two
cars are being u on a line in New
York city. The Third assnue line of
cars have been successfully operated
for twelve monshs past, and a number
in Twenty-eighth and Twenty-ninth
streets in the same city. The ad-
vantage urged for the new force is
that it is available in places where it
is not permissible to place overhead
wires and poles in the street. The
storage of electricity in street cars is
not successful, because of the expense
of maintenance, weight of apparatus,
required for change and other
1t rs said that the cost of
the system is just about line same al
that of the electric car.

A PERIOD FOR EDUCATION.

Lancaster Teller War stimulates the
study of history. Our people in general
knew little Of the Philippines Until we
fell into war with their people. Scarce
anything was known of South Africa
when the fighting began there between
the British and the Beers. 1t il the same
with China China was to rs a nation
Of laundrymen and opium and rat eaters.
But we are studying China. We find
that when census was taken in 1919
China had $3.50 million Of people 1t has
almost 400 millions now. This countless
number of people live under one govern
ment, have the same laws speak the
same language, study the same literat-
IRE and are as like each other as so
many hares, have a longer history and
more enduring national existence than
am other people, ancient or modern,
have a government with most elaborate
administrative machinery, classic litera-
ture and most peculiar language, and
printed books fo,4t or FIVE centuries be-
fore Europeans learned printing, have
manufacturing industries that in their
line surpass anything in Caucasian civil
ization-in short is set down in the books
as the most remarkable country in the
world.

NEW AND YOUNGER MEN.

This campaign is noticeable for the |
large proportion Of new men ap-
pearing in politics. The life of politi- |
cal generation is meyer very long; politics |
is an uncertain and trying pursuit and
men pass ont rapidly. But there seems
to be in all parties change much more
striking than usual in the active body
now at the front. In Wisconsin this is
particularly noticeable. The changes
in leadership of the leading parties ac
counts for much of this change, but not
all of it. There is all over the country
disposition clearly manifested to
choose younger men for representative
positions. Both the national conven-
tons showed this clearly Mr.. Bryan
is even now the youngest man ever
nominated for president. Both the
senate and the house have more young
members than ever before. The COVER
1 nors OF the states average much younger
than usual Mayor Van Wyck is one of
the youngest mayors New York ever
had But two candidates for vice pres
ident have been as young as Roosev It.
There are two causes for this one / ne
changes in parties and their leadership,
which has been mentioned, and the bet
ter equipment of the young men of today
/ for business together with the enthusi
asin aud dash of youth They are ready
to take opportunities and are naturally
attracted by the excitement and eonten-
tions of politics. The young man who
succeeds is the one who keeps cool
head. TIE politician who carries an old
head u young shoulders is very likely
| to win; but we can search the list of
oungsters long time before we find
| him
The disposition for new leaders and
, younger ones, is not at all a discourag-
! ing sign. 1t is still true that there is
any number OF able men in every com
munity who have not taken part in
politics, men in every way fiji ed to be
leaders. They have not aspired to politi-
cal activities. Those who do aspire and
use every means in their reach to get in
are too often not the best material The
parties in making the change to new
and younger men, should beware of the
political hummer Notwithstanding
what has been said, there ere still too
many of the irresponsible kind seen in
every convention. II the younger men
wish to distinguish themselves, they
should crowd out the very great, small,
stupid men who too often show up in
local leadership. At least, they should
never be seen in CONVEX ions. Mil

In some quarters there appears to be
a. disposition to doubt the sincerity Of
Senator Spooner in his recent announce
ment relative TO his retirement from
the United States senate with the close

source comes the agitation Cor the intro
duction of a resolution in the approach

Spooner to reconsider his determination.
The CENSOR accepted in good faith
Senator Spooner's reasons for retiring
from public life. A resolution com
mending his course in the senate and
his ability and public service would be
proper, but to ask a reconsideration
would, in our opinion. be little less than
TO discredit his honesty OF purpose

EASE AND DISEASE
A Short Lesson ON the Meaning
Of a Familiar W Orld.

Disease is the opposite Of ease.
Webster defines disease as "lack
of ease, uneasiueso, trouble, vexa
ton; diSQuiet." 1t is a condition
due to some arrangement of the
physical organism. A vast major
ity of the disease" from which
people suffer is due to impure
blood. Disease of this kind is
cured by Hood sSarsaparilla which
purifes, enricheS and vitalizeS the
blood. Hoods Sarsaparllla cures
scrofula, salt rheum, pimples and
all eruptions. 1t tones the stom-
ach and creates a good appetite,
and it gives vigor and vitality to
the whole body. 1t reverses the
condition of things, giving health,
comfort and lease in place Of
disease"

least one dreaded disease that
science has been able to cure in all
its stages and that is Catarrh.
Halls Catarrh Cure is the only
positive cure now known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being
a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Cure Is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and
mucous surfaces Of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the pat
tent strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature
in doing it's work. The proprietors
have soits much faith in curative
powers, that they offer one Hun
