CHAPTER II.

THE ESSENCE OF SIMPLICITY.
~ EFORE considering the question
x of practical return to the sim
plicity of which we dream, it
IL will be necessary to define sim
plicity in its very essence. for in regard
to It people commit the same error that
we have just denounced. confounding
the secondary with the essential. sub
stance with form. They are tempted
to believe that simplicity presents GER
tain external characteristics by which
1t may be recognized and in which it
really consists. Simplicity ard lowly
station, plain dress, n modest dwelling,
slender means, poyerty-theSe things
seem to go together. Nevertheless this
Is not the case. Just now l passed
three men on the street. the first in his
carriage, the others on foot and one of
them ShoeleSS. The ShoeleSs man does
not necessarily lead the least complex
life of the three. II may be. indeed,
that he who rides in his carriage is sim
cere and unaffected. in spite of his po-
sition, and is not at all the slave of his
wealth. 1t may be also that the pedeS-
trian in shoes neither envieS him who
rides nor despiseS him who goes I'M
shod; and lastly it is possible that I'M
der his rags, his feet in the dust. the
third man has a hatred of simplicity,
of labor. of sobriety. and dreams only
of idleness and pleasure for among the
least simple and straightforward OF
men must be reckoned professional
beggars, knights of the road, parasites
and the whole tribe of the obsequious
and enviouS. whose aspirations are
summed up in this-to arrive at selling
q morsel. the biggest possible, of that
prey which the fortunate of earth con-
sumo.
And to this same category. little
matter what their station in life, be-
long the profiiGate, the arrogant. tie
misery, the weak. the crafty. Livery
counts for nothing: we must see the
heart No class has the prerogative
Of simplicity: no dress, however hum

badge Its dwelling need not be a

nor the lowliest fisherman's bark. I'm
der all the forms in which life vests
itself, in all social positions. at the
top as at the bottom of the ladder,
there are people who live simply and
others who do not. We do not mean
by this that simplicity betrGys itself
in no visible signs has not its own
habits. it's distinguishing tastes and
ways; but this outward show, which
may now and then be counterfeited,
must not be COMPOUNDED with its es-
sence and its deep and wholly inward
source. Simplicity is q state of mind.
1t dwells in the main intention of our
lives. A man is simple when his
chief care is the wish to be what he
ought to be-that is. honestly and nat
urally human. And this is neither so
easy nor so impossible as one might
think At bottom it consists i'll put

cordance with the law of our being,
and consequently with the eternal IN
tention which willed that we should

Washington, Nov. 21.-The arrival
of Senator Hansbrough and Governors
Cummins and Van SAINT has started
fresh talk of special session of con-
g1ess for tariff revision. These three
men are ardent revisionists and Hans
brough, as a member Of the senate com
mittee on finance, will have a voice
in congress in determining if anything
is to be DONE They all saw President
Roosevelt today.

Governor Odel1 of New York being the
third one. They sat at tie same table
Governor Van SAINT dropped into
Washington last night on his way to
Baltimore to visit relatives. He says
there is no significance in his visit and
that it is more of holiday than any
thing else. He saw Secretary Shaw
this morning. to talk about getting
the secretary's influence in having the
record of a man who was in the Mis-,
sissippi river service under him and
who was removed from the customs
service in New Orleans when the fact
Of desertion was brought up after thir-

from their present Offices.
II am not an applicant for any of.
good business and will attend to that
when I retire from the office Of govern.
or. I have not been called here by the
president, and my call upon him today
was due simply to a desire to congratu.

over matters Of interest to Minnesota.

The governor will leave here tomor
row and will spend Thanksgiving in
Iowa with his mother.
McCumber There, Too.
Senator McCumber is in Washington
to remain until holiday recess Of con.
gress. He called on the president to.
day to pay his respects but did not dis.
cuss any matters of patronage in which
North Dakota is interested. Upon leav.
ing the White House the senator was
asked as to his attitude on. an extra
session for tariff revision. He said:
~ have not made up my mind on
that question. We have all winter to
discuss the need of an extra session.
and I am sure the decision can be
reached in the next three months.''
When Senator McCumber goes to
North Dakota at Christmas time, he
will remain until the legislature has Sc.
lected a senator for the next term. He
would not discuss stories of opposition
to himself which have appeared in
northwestern papers.
