THE G. a. R. national encampment
at Denver this week is much better at
tended than was anticipated by the rail
roads. Their highest estimate of the
attendance was forty-one thousand. 1t
is useless for us to estimate the num-
ber of visitors in the city, but the esti-
mates of over one hundred thousand
are unreliable. The cent mile rate
has brought many excursion lists to Col
orado.

Is asserted, than any other animal in

the animal had exhausted all his skill

Mary had a little lamb.
You need not look surprised;
OF course you don't, for Mary has
Been widely advertised.
And something you may learn from this
If you are not clam,
You can be just as widely known
AS Mary and her lamb.
Your name can be household word
And you be known so well
That folks can confidently buy
p, The things you have to sell.
And when you once have got yourself
Into the clearing rays
OF the sunlight of publicity,
You bet your life, it pays.

NOPE MOVEMENT IN CHINA.

China is waking up at last. Her mil- itary plan has already been announced. and now it appears that the Emperor of China has recently approved a me morial presented by the president of the Board of Revenue, advising the es- tablishment of official parliaments. where matters of importance, both foreign and domestic, can be discussed by the chief metropolitan officials. members of the Hanlin college, the va rious boards Of censors, and the grand secretaries. This new council is not to hold discussions at regular intervals, but only when commanded by the Elm peror. Its consultations will be carried on by correspondence.
 The formation cf this new so-called parliament is regarded by the foreign community as entirely illusory and useless. but interesting as an indica- tion that China now recognizes the in adequacy of the existing government machinery. Perhaps by and by China will have good government, and perhaps that other belated nation Rus sia will.

ANOTHER IN SIGHT.

Philadelphia, Chicago and St. Louis have had world fairs, and now perhaps New York will have one. The talk that she will is growing, and has De- come pretty definite. For instance representatives of several patriotic societies have met at the house or Robert B. Roosevelt to agree on unity of action about plans for the adequate celebration in 1909 of the tri-centennial anniversary of the discovery of the Hudson river by Hendrix Hudson. The meeting was called by MT. Roosevelt himself of his own initiative. He said in calling the meeting to order that the numerous societies and committees would probably do more effective work if they focused their efforts in one central committee than they would If they dispersed them. This sentiment was heartily endorsed by the thirty or forty representatives of the six soci- cities and orders present. The societies represented were the Sons of the Am erican Revolution, the Holland Society, the Society of Founders and Patriots, the Hendrix Hudson Memorial Associ- ation, the St. Nicholas Society, the American Scenic and Historic Preserv- ation Society, the Municipal Art soci- ety and the National Arts Club.
 So the New York worlds fair has ale ready a fair start. Of course it will be great show, and it will be handy for people in this region to attend.

TONSELS.

It's about time for new one, and here it is: Isabel Lefevre, a wayward girl of Oakland, California, who has caused her mother and friends no end of trouble and has been placed in the care of a probation officer, is to be the subject of 8 very interesting experi- ment. She has three tonsils, and it is the theory of her attending physician that the girls waywardness is the re- suit of brain starvation. The third tofl- sil, he says, flinders the flow of blood to the brain, so that it is insufTiciently nourished, which affects moral respon- sibility. This growth is to be removed and it is expected that the girls phys- cal and moral health will be much im- proved by the operation.
 Good. Three tonsils are probably too many. Perhaps one is too many. The Chicago Health Board has issued a re- port praising the work of Dr.. Alice Johnson, of the parish of Lambeth, in London. She is a health officer of her district, and has excised the tonsils of more than one hundred schoolgirls. Few appreciate the danger, they carry in their threats. In the words of the bulletin, the tonsil is 'the nursery and hothouse for the propagation of every form of evil microbe, from that which causes 'quinsy sore throat to the na- lignant septic organisms of diphtheria, pneumonia, tuberculosis, gangrene of the lungs, inflammation of the heart membranes and other fatal 1aaladiss."

SOME TEXAS HUMAN S4TUR E.

Representative <. Lowering of .Massa" chusetts has introduced bill forbid ding tho transportation of gypsy moths, boil weevils, plum curculio, hop plant lice, and like pests from State to State, and punishing those who trans gross by a ss5,OOo fine and five years imprisonment, ..
 The history of this bill is interesting and indicative of what human nature may be. A Texas man mailed to firm of Wall street brokers not long ago a communication in which he promised to send the cottton market booming if the brokers would make it worth his while. He outlined his plan, which was to gather up enormous quantities of the boil weevil and take the same into cotton-growing States not yet infest- ed. s''And," wrote this enterprising cit izen of Texas, 'I assure you I can go out and get boil weevils by the bush el." The patriotic cotton brokers turn ed the letter over to the Agricultural department, wherea detective was put on the Texas citizens trail. It was as- certained that he was a man of some financial responsibility, and actually might attempt to put his plan into ex- ecution.. ~-. .- --
 Perhaps this isn't much less legiti- mate than some other things that are done in Wall street, but it is to be hoped that this particular thing wont find encouragement there.

A striking and typical American ca- reer was that of the late Charles Hack ley, lumberman and phiIanthropist, of Muskegon, Michigan. Hackley came to Muskegon when a mere boy, in 1856, with only $7 in his pocket, having worked his passage across Lake Michi- gan on a schooner. Becoming success sively bookkeeper for lumber firm, then foreman, and finally an owner in the lumber business, he amassed a great fortune, his wealth at his death being estimated at $15,00O,OOO, while his benefactions to Muskegon alone amounted to over s2,0OOoOo. Although he Is said to have contributed to every church in the city. he never attended any and never witnessed a perform ance in B theater.

Our Constitution does not march like an unwritten constitution, says Judge William Lindsay. Tt does not expand even with the existence of an undis- puted necessity for it's expansion. It's meaning is the same to-day as it was yesterday. It will remain the same un- til changed by amendment. The un- folding of the Constitution and the dis. covery and exercise of power not here- tofore called into play does not imply that new powers have been created, but that old powers, powers existing from the time the Constitution was adopted. are put into execution, the occasion for their execution having come about for the first time.'

Continuation = and concluSion-
from last article, Of "a Chapter on
Cranks," by Bob Burdette:
"Queer how some of the cranks
are remembered, while the smart,
intelligent, sound minded people
who lived contemporaneousl y with
them are forgotten almost before
they are cold!
"The Prophet Elijah was another
cold water crank. He poured II
barrels of water on his sacrifice;
and then, although there were no
visible signs of rain to the common
people, and it had not rained for
three years and a half, still told
the king to get for shelter-the
storm was coming; and he himself
ran ahead of the horses all the way
to the city.
"What crank he was But God
fed him and used him on this side
as long as He had anything for
him to do, then sent His own pri-
vate carriage after him, in which
no one else was ever allowed to
ride.
"What an honorl | declared it
seems as if the cranks we're honored
more Just before leaving, and after
they had left, than while they were
bothering us with their cranky
ideas. Whoever else rode out of
this world in God Almighty's
chariot, except cranks?
Solomon was great old crank.
But, now that he is dead and gone,
Ae world says that he was the
wisest man who ever lived, and
quotes his cranky sayings to this
day-.such as look not upon the
wine when it is red,' etc, etc, for
at last it biteth like serpent and
stingeth like an adder
Isaiah was what might be called
a prophetic crank; constantly
telling the people of things that
were to come to pass hundreds of
years in the future; naming the
times and countries, and even call.
Ing the names of those who were to
fulfill his prophecies; and, strange
as it may seem, they have all come
true-without a single exception

WAGES OF MUNICIPAL SIN

In reflective mood after its gallant fight for civic
decency in San Francisco the Chronicle says Neverhe

The truth of the Chronicles proposition is evidenced
by the fact that in extraordinarily large there

Every discreet business in the city, particularly
every capitalist investor significance

agrees with the Chronicle in the sentiment expressed
above which recalls the sentiment of the Prophet Hosea
