PROSPECT OF EXTRA SESSION..

At this time there every prospect of an extra

known that he will call such session unless the Panama
canal treaty and the Cuban reciprocity treaty rat

This action of the president is in the nature of CO.

president all the indirect at his command

that body into enacting legislation that meets his
approval Roosevelt is the first offender of the kind
and perhaps not the worst but his late bluff is the most
recent instance.
1t is the general experience that extra sessions
fraught with peril and rule accomplish little good.
The sentiment in the itself is overwhelming ely

to the divine. Love, such as the Bible
here portrays, is an underlying, senti-

all of ones dealings. 1t is manifested
in social relations no less than in the

1T does those whom it is easy to like
He who is possessed by the spirit of
love will love as comprehensively and
as perststently and as unselfishIy as
did the One who was the incarnation
of God, whose other name is love;
though, like Jesus, he will at the same
time have his own special and per-
sonal loves. ,..
This life of love is not for the chos-
en- few. Poets sing about their loves
as something which the world could
not know or understand or expert
ence. Not so with true love. 1t is
for the least as well as for the great
est. Some may not be able to attain
riches, or powers, or ease, or learning
or any other of the great goals of life,
but there is none who may not love.
And, as love is born of loving, he who
gives himself to loves service is GER
tain, sooner or later, to know the re-
ward of being loved. But it is better to
love than to be loved, and they under
stand least about love who know it

for state aid in the works of the humanitarians.
The proposition is by unique. Half a
dozen states of the Union have made local humane so

always been maintained by private subscription and its
field of usefulness has been necessarily crcumscrbed by
reason of its limited means.
The humane society is engaged in a great work. It

greater things in the lifting of burdens from and

AS general proposition it is we'll for the state to
remain aloof from entanglements with private fsttu-

OF the Humane society is essentially pro bono pubco
