Maxim Gorky, the great Russian
novelist and ardent revolut1onlst'
shortly before his arrest wrote as fol-
lows:
The bloody dawn of the day of free
dom will be followed by more slaughter,
but in the end the people will triumph.
The people carried their faith in the
little Father" up to the Neva gate
In one volley the soldiers of the Gear
destroyed the power of his name.
Every widow and every orphan that
was made has a voice that will pronounce
the end of absolutism in Russia.
Instead of supprcssing by terror they
have aroused spirit that will never die
until the old order of things is forever
buried.

tory of the worlds progress that will
never be forgotten.

NEW SENATOR WILL FIGHT.
La Toilette Says He Plans to Keep Up
Railroad Crusade.

Railroad Crusade.
Gov. Robert NJ. La Follette's election
as United States Senator was ratified by
both houses Of the Wisconsin Legisla
ture Wednesday before a great throng
of people, Unless the Legislature en-
acts into laws the reforms advocated in
the State Republican platform Gov. La
Toilette will decline the election to the
Senate and remain in Wisconsin to con-
tinue the battle for regulation Of rail-
roads.
The Governors speech was the most
sensational ever delivered in the West.
It was the first time in the history of
the county that man conditionally ac-
cepted an election to the United States
Senate. Gov. La Toilette said:
''If at the beginning of the session,
before any legislation has been enacted,
1 accept without qualification or expia-
nation tho honor you have given me, /
fear it may lead to misunderstanding
by the people of the State; that it may
undermine their confidence in the final
ful6llment of the issues made by them.
Il cannot believe that we can even
partly fail in performance of our duty.
| cannot at present see what | could do
fulfllment either in whole or in part
which l could not do equally we'll, and
perhaps more effectively, as United
States Senator, in cooperation with the
people of the commonwealth.
"But, recognizing, as I must, the pres
ent obligations which rest upon me,
am compelled to be in readiness to meet
any unforeseen issue which may develop
For this reason | say, in accepting your
high commission, that if there should ap-
pear any conflicting obligation which
should be impossible for me to meet as
United States Senator, although elected
to that position, l shall ask you to re-
cede the honor from me and place it upon
another man of your choice"
Your call invites me to participate
in the work which is to deal Immediately
with the problems which President
Roosevelt courageously has pressed upon
Congress for solution.
II appreciate that you have the same
sense of obligation to the people of Wis
consin which l have. I realize that if
you had not believed that l could better
serve the peoples interests as United
States Senator than as Governor YOU
would not have taken this action to-day"
Coy. La Toilette was born in Prim-
rose, Wis, June a. 1855, and was grad
uated from the University of Wisconsin
in 1879. The next year he was admitted
to the bar, and from then until 1884 was
district attorney of Dane county. Elected
to Congress in 1887 he remained a men,
Der until 1891, and as a member of the
ways and means committee took promi-
nent part in framing the Mckinley tariff
bill. In 1901 he was elected Governor
of his State on the Republican ticket
and reelected last year after fight
against the machine. Gov. La Toilette
is leader of the reform forces.

while the present uprisings will be sup
pressed, a change in the form of the
Russian government is inevitable as a re-
suit of the march of the people toward
the winter palace and the consequent
slaughter by the Cars soldiers.
This official confidence in the prospec-
tive demolition of Russian bureaucracy
tends stronger than anything else to con-
vince the British people that it's govern
ment is prepared to lend its support to
the cause of the reyolutionists in way
that will do the most good.

a change in the form of the Russian
government. What the sympathies of
King Edwards advisers is with the revo-

of the war secretary, Mr.. Arnold-Fors-

the sympathy of the people of the United
Kingdom with the people of Russia.

"GIittering Gloria"

Right in the middle of the second act of "Glittering Gloria" at the Montgomery moved all doubt as to the standing of the entertainment and scored per sonal triumph that has not had It's equal here since Marie Cahill burrowed with her capital songs and her infec- tious humor.
 The comparison is made because Miss Morton, like Miss Cahill, aroused her audience by the singing of one song "Glittering Gloria" had proceeded jolly enough, with laughs here and there un- til Miss Morton sang that song. Then the audience sat up and screamed in its realization that an artist was down near the footlights and that she had fun to purvey. One song had gone be- fore which served to awaken the audi ence to the fact that Miss Morton had a rarely gifted voice.
 But 1t was when she tantalized us with Fishing" that we shouted our Morton was good enough for our money. It was a little thing, perhaps too modern for prudes, but 1t was funny and she delivered all of the fun in 1t. My. how she did sing 1t! The audience was insistent and Miss Nor ton was obliging.
 Further down the program Miss Nor ton sang Nellie Wood" dainty song. if a shade off -colored in morals, and the audience held its sides again. But the people will cling to Fishing" as one or the CdpILal mus or the season.
 "Glittering Gloria" is a novelty. It Is a legitimae comedy with song intro duced here and there in sensible fashion and not because song is needed,
 The story is one that rather takes liberties with the ears of polite people, but 1t Is so bright and sparkling that it is saved from vulgarity. The com plication revolve around Gloria Grant, Miss Morton) a loud London actress who "glitters" after the curtain has been rung down, and the contest be- tween several men of the world to buy for her a diamond necklace which is her hearts desire. There are the usual suggestions of marital lnfidelity and ludicTous exhibitions of mendacity which would be tremendously funny if they were not so dangeroulyeimmo But these things are not concocted to uplift the human family so what's the use in writing @ sermon?
 The company of actors was sur prisingly good. There are half a dozen fiat" character parts in Glitter ing Gloria" and none of the players missed an opportunity. Mir. Parsons, MT Herriot, Mir. Davis, MT. Kiernan and Mir Clark were excellent. Of these Mir. Davis as Zebedee Poskett was the favorite. but his eccentric, parsimoni- ous London rake of an attorney gave him a trife the best chance.

Fowler remarked that at this time of the year people were very much given to looking backward, and that to his mind nothing that he knew of in all his experience in the drug business causes forebodings and downright desponden- cy, as the fact that one is not so vigor- ous and hearty as year ago, and talk ing up a bottle of Rexal Mucu~Tone he that Will so quickly restore old-time vigor as Rexall Mucu-Tone.
