EFFECT OF DEPEw,s TALK.

Senator Depew, in his Chicago inter
view advocating a third term for Presi-
dent Mckinley, has done more to give
coming an emperor than anything that
has been done by Congress or the Su-
preme Court Mr.. Bryan, in the last
number of his paper. The Commoner,
heads his leading article Emperor Nc
Kinley' and in the body of the article
intimates that the tendency Of the Su-
preme Court decisions in the Porto Ri
can cases is to make Mr.. Mckinley an
emperor. What he said, however, did
not make half the impression on the
country that the effort of Senator Depew
to start a third-term movement has.
The interview is being very generally
discussed throughout the country. No
one of course believes it was inspired by
the President. No doubt Senator Depew
discussed the matter in an informal way
with other Republican leaders before CIV
ing out his interview. There are Republi-
can leaders who would like a third term
for Mr.. Mckinley because they think 1t
viii be easier to elect him than any other
candidate they can name. but in thinking
50 they are mistaken. He is popular. it
is true. but the American people are I'M
alterably opposed to third term for any
President. If there Is a doubt about
that. 1t is only necessary to read the ex-
pressions of opinion called out by Mr..
Depew's effort to start third-term
movement to remove it. Mr.. Mckinley
will not be reelected. 1t Is even safe to
say that he will not be renominated. If
the Republican party wants to create the
impression that it Is really dragging the
country towards imperialism and wouldn't
mind seeing MIR. Mckinley an emperor
let IT keep on with its effort to give the
President a third term.

Is AN AFTER-LrFE wANTEDs

Boston is never so happy as when she
is reaching for the unattainable or trying
to look through the impenetrable She
is now wrestling with the problem Of
whether mankind really desires to par
ticipate in a life beyond the grave. She
has heard all along that man naturally
desires a future life, and that therefore,
as an inevitable consequence there must
be future life ahead of him; that it is
impossible to entertain the belief that
the universal desire for an after-existence
is doomed to disappointment. Neverthe-
less Boston has been studying the od-
cultism of the Orient, and has learned
that in India the literary tradition" is
exactly the reverse of that held by Chris
tian persons. 1t is assumed there that
man naturally Graves extinction OF 'ab-
sorption into the absolute"
The Boston Society for Psychichl Re-
search is conducting the investigation to
