II is impossible for dispatches to become
known. except by the carelessnesS or cTimi-
nallty of some OF our representatives.
Now. our representatives abroad are
nearly always honest, but they are also
very liable to be fascinated by the foreign
women. Our men-especially our western
men-are not used to the sort of women
they meet over the water. They reverence
women highly that it never occurs to
them to imagine that highly born titled
aristocrat, with all the money she wants,
would descend to play with them for the
express purpose of wheedlng government
secrets out of them.

that my lifelong habit of not committing

What is the PeopleP
From the London Mail.

From the London Mail
When they speak of the People they GER
tainly mean something more than the whole
mass of individuals In a country Jumped to-
gether. That Is the People. mere varied
aggregation of persons moved by no COM
mon motives, a complex interplay The
People, as the believer understands the
word, is something more mysterious than
that. The People is something that over
rides and is added to the indivdualities
that make up the people. 1t is. as 1t were,
itself an individuality of higher order
as, indeed, its capital displays. 1t has a
will of it's own, which is not the will of any
particular person in it; 1t has a power of
purpose and judgment of a superior sort.
1t is supposed to be the underlying of all
national life and the real seat of all public
religious emotion. Unfortunately. it lacks
powers of expression, and SO there is need
of rulers and interpreters. If they express
1t we'll in law and act. in book and song
they prosper under it's mysterious approval;
If they do not it revolts forgets or does
something else of an equally annihilatory
sort,
That briefly, is the idea of the People
My modest thesis is that there exists moth
ing of the sort; that the world of men is
entirely made up of the individuals that
compose it. and that collective action is
just the algebraic sum of all Individual ac-
lions.

wished to make any statement IN con- con-

both the sale Of liquor and the opening
of bar-rooms on Sunday. That it is wen

with the enforcement Of the law that
the repeal Of the feature as to the OPEN
ing of tine bar-rooms was substantial

difficult to prove the sale of liquor even
