Under the proposed conditions the

Young men AMI women Of Lincoln
who earn their own small livings have
social rights that are entirely ignor-
ed. They like to see and talk with
each other but there is no place where
they can innOcently meet, and enjoy
in groups the pleasures Of society,
pleasures which cannot be enjoyed
where they are segregated in couples.
There are social successes among the
humber members Of Lincoln society
who will never have an opportunity
to exhibit their tact and special gre.
garious talent for making a number
Of people happy all at once. If Ma
dame Recamier had had no salon, il
she had been a blanchiseuse. she
would have died with a terrible, I'M
satisfied longing for she knew not
what. She had genius for society
and she was born into family which
enabled her to exercise it. There are
probably not many Recamiers in Lin
coin, but there are hundreds Of girls
pining to exploit their innocent fas-
cinatiOns 'in society,"" And simpli-
city would satisfy them. They want
to be admired. Graceful dancers wish
their set to see them dance. Every
girl has some special beauty or grace
which she naturally wishes her
friends to admire. 1t is not an I'M
worthy or shameful instinct and
every girl in May-time should have
place, time and opportunity for her
frOlics, to choose and to be chosen.

modify the seventies Of business by

is enervating and unhealthful, but
n-as-much as the propaganda seems
to be growing it is unnecessarily de-

The Next President.

The most astute politician does not
dare, for his regulations sake to pro-
phesy ahead more than six months.
The rules adopted by prophets as far
back as Moses are that in making a
prophesy it is safe to place the date Of
accomplishment so far ahead that the
prophet himself and all Of his friends
will be dead when the time comes for
his triumph or defeat. or else locate

ulatOr 10 fOretell exactly what will
happen within the given time.
Not in the spirit Of prOphesy, but
of calm elaboration on political pref
udices and events it is pertinent to
consider the effect of the nomination
to the presidency Of Senator Hanna
by the republican national conven-
tion of 1904.
Although Senator Hanna is an hon.
Orable man, perfect type OF the
hard headed, de-sentimentalized, keen,
American, business man, his nOmina-
tion to the presidency would be un-
fortunate, not SO much for what he
is as for what the people think he is.
To many Americans he is a bugbear
and the embodiment of greed. 1t
would require an unusually active
campaign to convince a very large
number of peOple-enOugh to elect
him-that in a controversy between
the people and corporation Senator
Hanna would be on the side of the
former. Justly or unjustly charged
with contempt for every thing but
practical politics. it is inexpedient
for a great party to accept a candi-
date who will Immediately place ora
tors and campaign managers in de.
fensive attitude. When Blaine was
nominated, and defeated, the party
managers were kept busy all summer
explaining things. Senator Hanna
has demonstrated in Nebraska his
contempt for idealism in politics.
The American people desire knight
sans reproach. Blaine's strong hold
upon the affections and enthusiasts
Of the voters was the possession OF
sort Of fairy tale unworldliness. he
had enthusiasts and could commune
cate them. He was credulOUs and
very human. Senator Han1a's bust
ness sense is his chief characteristic.
