defeat at the hands of the Cornell eleven.

Quakers' 6. 1t was the first time since
the two universities have played foot
bail together that Cornell has been able
to conquer Pennsylvania. All through
the contest the red and blue players
fought their opponents every inch OF the
way. but the doughty boys from New
York state were superior to them in every
department of the game except in punt
ing.
No matter how hard the Pennsylvan-
ians tried, Cornell was always there to
meet them The Cornell offense was
powerful. 1t seemed little difference
where they tried-through the center,
against the tackles. or around the ends
Pennsylvania was able to hold them not
more than half a dozen times Coach
Woodruff's newest football creation, the
"whirligig,' had no tefrors for Cornell
and it was effectually stopped nearly
every time it was tried.
In the first half Cornell made II points
TO Pennsylvania's 6, and in the second
half managed to add two more touch
downs to their score.

T he Clio b e has been satisfied for

Whatever may be the condition of public
sentiment on the proposed change it is
assured that the politicians of its party

their purpose.

counted on before the statesmen of the

operation. So, too, must the electorate

the charter commission will voluntarily
promote the purpose Of those who seek
the accomplishment of their partisan
political ends through charter amend

Any change in the existing instrument
which is designed to accomplish the pur-
pose of any set of politicians whatever
ought to be discouraged The danger of
tinkering with the local fundamental law
is plain. It will not be difficult h

gentlemen to get the necessary number of
votes to warrant the submission of such
amendments as they believe necessary to
their ends. 1t will be quite another mat
ter to secure the approval of the neees-
sary proportion of the voting population
to their proposals.
The members of the present police board
serve without pay. Since their appoint
ment they have given the most thought
full attention to the duties Of their office,
and their manner of discharging those
duties leaves little to be wished for. Any
effort to legislate them out of office will
necessarily be attended by some political

A quaint little violinist bowed her way

stirred up a degree of enthusiasm that
was as well merited as it was unusual.

She is a bit of priceless antique herself.
Her manners have the dignity of another

modern yiolinists-she stands SO entirely
a1one-that no comparison with any of
them is possible. For age brings ex-
perience and when years have not rem

necessity have more TO offer than ons

COLLEGE PRESIDENTS SCARCE.


Columbia, Wisconsin and Northwestern
universities are now looking for presi-
dents. Not one of the three has salts
factory man in sight All are great in
stitutions of learning, and there is no
fear that salaries will not be met prompt
". Therefore, some other reason for the
presidencies yainly seeking men must be
found.
One reason may be seen in the fact that
the president of modern university must
be a man of many talents, and must ex-
eel in all of them. And in the light OF
recent history, it would seem that the re-
spect in which he must be paramount is
the ability to get contributions to the en-
dowment fund from the rich men and
women of the land. President Harper. of
Chicago university, in this respect, is in
a class by himself. In the language Of
the day, he has the rest of them skinned

who was solely good solicitor. Presi-
dent Harper himself is man of the most
profound and varied accomplishments,
and it is nothing to his diseredit that he
has the confidence of Mr.. Rockefeller.
American college presidents are good and
learned men. But it is well known that
great learning and studious habits are
not often associated with executive abil-
ity. Hence arises the difficulty of getting
men adapted to the presidency of large
university under present day conditions.
One result of the dearth of available
material for presidencies may be the di-
vision of the duties usually devolving
upon the head of the school. A business
man may be given charge of the financial
affairs, and scholar made head of the
department of instruction. This might
prove a fortunate solution of the diff
culties now confronting the three unfver-
sites mentioned, and afford a very de-
cided improvement in the condition OF
others that might be mentioned.

1t would be of little avail to engage in
controversy with those who avow them
selves to possess all the wisdom and all
the virtue of their day. The communica-
ton of Mr.. Lockwood, VINO styles him
self Organizer of the Socialist Party
which we print in another column, is
plainly the work of a man who has given
himself over to belief in pure theory to
degree which places him beyond all rea-
sonable possibility of contrary convic-
ton
The Democratic party has stood for
over 100 years the proponent of popular
liberty. Its career began by the destruc
ton of a political party which set itself
to the perversion of the system of con-
stitutional liberty founded by the fathers
of the republic The same struggle which
ii made successfully against the alien and
sedition laws it has made in one form or
another on behalf of the American COM
monalty at intervals since. Its leaders
have gone astray. Sectional and individ-
ual interest have forced it at times into
q position of apparent opposition to the
very motive of it's own existence. But it
has all through our national history been
steadfast against every policy and every
act of government which involved unwar-
ranted or unnecessary restriction upon
the rights of the individual. If its record
presented no more than it's unwavering
opposition to official encroachment on in
dividual freedom, it would have entitled
itself to the admiration and faith of all
who seek the ascendancy of civil liberty
in government.
But the American Democracy has done
more. 1t has held the government of the
United States steadfastly in the pathway
of constitutional liberty; and in the adj
ministration of that government through
its official representatives it has given
the grandest exemplification, for a period
aggregating over sixty years, the world
practical application in the administra-
tion of the public interests. 1t did not
drive aliens out; it brought them in; and
In the conduct of public affairs under

states what has been well designated 1.-The
last refuge of the liberties of mankind. .

speech. and strangled in its infancy the
scheme of its opponents and defamers
to criminally punish criticism of official
conduct. Were it not for American de-
mocracy, the hordes of the European
democracy who have sought and found
civil liberty ON these shores for over fifty
years would merely have changed their
political masters.

From Tien Tsin to Pekin.

From Tien Tsin to Pelxin.
The political center of the middle king
dom is Pekin, but this name is also un-
known to the Chinese, for they call it
Fetching, one of many names which they
use, and which means northern capital.
The name was adopted to distinguish 1t
from neutrality-suspicious. capital-which
was the seat of government centuries be-
fore the United States was born. Pekin
became the capital in l421, A. D.
But Pekin is as far from being the
geogra phical and commercial center of
China as is Washington of the United
States. The two cieties resemble each
other strikingly in being both in the
northeastern part, both on a river
short distance from the coast, and both
having no Importance apart from the re-
quirements of government. But there re-
semblances cease.
The plain in which Pekin is situated
has been thickly populated for centuries.
SO that it is even more a cemetery than
dwelling place of the living. Millions
of corpses have been barely put under
ground and their mounds are everywhere
to be seen. The living population is $50
to the square mile, even more dense than
that of England. AS it is the height of
SdCTtleSS sduu lIlpleIy u uiStu Lie lSSL-
ing place of the dead, the encroachment
of graves upon the area of arabic land
is a serious matter. But this is but one
instance out of many of the supremacy
of death in this land of the living dead,
as will appear later in this series.
Roads, in our meaning of the term, do
not exist AS Pekin is only 100 feet above
sea level, the rainy season in August
often converts the intervening plain into
a great lake. The country of the lower
Peino was once marine basin and has
been gradually filled in by the alluvial
deposits of that and other rivers. The
cutting down of the forests ON the hills
northwest of Pekin, and the consequent
failure of vegetation, is responsible Ior
the tremendous freshets which frequent
1y convert the Peiho into a torrent and
the whole plain into lake.
After this deluge has slowly drained
off the scorching sun soon converts the
alluvial mud into the finest kind Of dust.
| Then appears another evil result of the
wholesale destruction of hill forests, the
whole plain and the streets of Pekin are
swept by furious winds which drive the
irritating dust in clouds. Of course, the
Chinese themselves do lot mind a little
thing like that, but to a Christian it Is
doubly irritating since much of it is the
dust of defunct heathens.
All these things are important to know
in order to understand the difficulties of
all kinds which beset any hostile force
which attempts to operate against Pekin.
All transport must be by wagons. Or by
boats on the treacherous Peiho, which in
creases the land distance OF go miles to
about 135 miles. But suppose all these
obstacles are overcome and the invading
army to have arrived under the walls of
the capital, a new set Of difficulties con-
fronts it.
The conditions which determined the
first founding of city on the site of
Pekin are even more mysterious than

from 1899 aggregated $4,000. In Massa-
chusetts the falling away reached some
thing like 10000 from last years figures,
and in Ohio 12.eoo and over. This may
all indicate what the Republican politi-
clans choose to clain-a grand indorse-
ment of the G. o. P. But Democrats will
be pardoned if they see it in another
light. It was an off year in Kentucky,
as we'll as in Ohio and Pennsylvania:
yet the Democratic gain over last years
Democratic plurality was just 5000. Let
Democrats stand together and the future
is secure. The conscience and the judg-
ment of the country are on the alert, and
prepared to pass in the next two years
effectively on the don1inions of the trusts
and the corruptionists.
