That the vast new domain Of property, withheld
from the ownership Of the people By the cOrporate
lawlessness of the past can, without disorder, be
restored to the people, requires some faith, says
Judge Grosscupin American illustrated Magazine.
That it will be restored by setting those things
right that heretofore have been allowed to 60 wrong,
requires faith that things once set right and kept
right will work themselves ont right that right

maintained, draws aid from power that, though
not fully cOmpassed ly Our vision, enters nightly
into shaping the destinies Of mankind. have that
faith Whether the world knows or not that faith

il has moved the world. And the immediate work
that lies before those who believe with me in the
generation Of the corporation ID to reach the faith

NENEMLf@ year. NOT tne least q whlcn was
$kYEK that the yellow fever did not be-
NM0 cOmn epidemic.
.1XA This last and The demenstrated
fact that the fever be controlled, il not entirely
exterminated, might we'll have bean made the 0c
casion for special Thanksgiving prcclamatons in
a the GHf States had not the regular anaual festt-
val come at so appropriate date. The work Of
the Marine Hospital Service ia New Orleans last
summer sets the cntire Lover Valley Of tht Miss
iseippi and the Gulf Coast further ahead and
places them on . more solid basis Of enduring
prosperity than any other evcRt or development
Of the last forty years.
Mississippi and the entire South have indeed,
everything to be thankful for this year II they
have not made their largest cotton crop they are
getting more clear money for what they did raise
than many larger crop has broaghts and they may
be thankful for the hope that the cotton growing
industry has been placed upon q safer business
foundation than 1t has rested on for many years.
The South is thankful for the increasing diversity
OF it's agricutaEal products, which not only make it
richer bat moro independent and self sustaining;
for ts increasing land values; for its newly opened
and opening mines; for it's dIversi6caiOn and multi
plicaton Of its manufacturing industries; for the
tide Of lusty American population which the States
OF the West and North are pouring IN to profit BY
it's rare opportunities and to aid in converting its
hardly touched resources into afauences hitherto
undreamed OF.
For it's fertile soi yielding abundantly the fruits
coal for misunderstanding and for its roads and rivers
providing the means Of easy transportation, the
South has cause to be abundantly thankful. In
these the South has the ideal combination Of the
three things which Lord Bacon says make nation
great and prosperous. No other part Of the Vest
ern Hemisphere possesses them la equal measure
except the Gtatesin the Middle West.
There Is cause for thankfuness in the fact that
the South is entering upon the era In which it can
never again be . purely agricultural cegion-an
merce will supplement one another to term the
ideal economic fabric.
The South may we'll be thankful for it's schools,
for its loyalty to American principles and traditions
Tor it's conservatism Of all the hest that has been In
herited from the patriots the pioneers and the
State builders who created the greatest Republic
the world has ever Known
The South has everything to be thankful for. the
thought Of it should make appetzing sauce for the
Thanksgiving turkey.

and the Kansas claim that these pictures demon
strate the fact that Colorado has stolen and carried
away the Arkansas river contrary to the peace and
dignity OF several thousand farmers in Western Kan
sas who desire to use its magic waters for rrgattng
purposes to make some 300 900 Of desert land
blossom like the rose
In addition to the pictures Judge Ashbaugh, lead
ing counsel for Kansas in the litigation, has just
completed an abstract of the testimony taken In the
case, consisting of five volumes OF 1000 typewriter
pages each. But the sixth volume, containing 300
pages OF photographs. is relied chiefly to estab-
fish the fact that where the Arkansas rolled In
plenteous majesty through the plains Of Colorado
and Kansas, dispensing the choicest blessings OF
fertility to the thirsty so and watering the crops
Of the just and the unjust alike, the unjust in
Colorado have pifered all the water and left Kan
sas as dry as q bone. The Kansans claim priority
rights to this water. They have eight or nine big
ans began to irrigate anything but their thrOats,
and these bitches used TO be brimming full before
Colorado swiped the water and turned Il into bitches
which were built In base imitation Of the Kansas
kind. These pictures, the Kansans claim, Will
show that their bitches now haven't even cherry
left at the bottom, as evidence that they in-
tended for liquid refreshment or as guarantee
that rivers, like the constitution follow the flag,
which waves over every school house in Kansas.
The 3OO,O00 acres in Kansas which are left to the
tender mercy Of the Kansas prOhibitOTy Law are un
surpassed for the culture Of sugar bsets alfalfa me-
Ions and fruit and it remains to be seen whether the
supreme court of the United States will countenance
this wholesale theft Of the once freely flowing Ar
kansas river.

q monarchy aIter throwing OF the yoke ofSweden is
i little surprising to those who bad faith In the
triumph Of democracy in this particular instance.
Especially here In Amerca we have come to believe
that the thrones OF ancient autocracies are crumb
ling and that monarchy is at least ObsOleecent
When the hardy independent and democratic Nor
wegians deliberately refused to adopt republican
form Of government IL was looked on as the foolish
rejection OF . rare opportunity. And yet Norway
was wiser than her critics supposed.
The selection Of 3 king was more in the way OF
political policy than because the people cared espec
tally for an occupant OF the throne. Germany and
Russia woald look with extreme disayOr upon a
republic on the Scandinavian peninsula, and these
are allies npcn whom Norway might have TO depend
in case of external complications. Prince Charles
also bore q letter OF recommendation, as it we're,
from the King Of England, which AMOUNTS to q
guaraDtee cf support from that quarter. Thus Nor
way did not make such bad bargain after all in
choosing to perpetrate monarchy instead OF posing
as target for the enemity Of the jealous sovereigns
all about her.
The election Of king is pOt exactly novel; al
though in this instance it was accompanied by feat
uree almost Grimly humorous. Prince Charles, Of
Denmark, had been placed in nomination and .
general election was called to vote, mot especially
for Charles bat upon the proposition as 70 whether
Norway should have king ct all. In the meantime
the candidate for the ttdivineo Office stood by and
waited until his future subjects decided whether the
ofiice should be continued, The throne had been
hawISa about among the reigning families Of Europe
with 10 takers Finally Prince Charles humbly &C.
cepted the Ofer, and then, IN position that must
have been extremely humiliating for scion Of the
Load'g anointed, he waited until the ballots were
cOanted
The new King Of Norway will have fewer inher-
ent rights than any other king now reigning. In
deed be win be less free to impress himself upon
the Standardization Of his cOuntrys affairs than our
own president. He will be merely fgurehead,
with nominal privileges and functions, but the real
rulers Of Norway will be the people themselves.
The national spirit that has developed since the
successful secession from Sweden will not hesitate
to depose the young king Il there 10 any special
demand for IT, The poor sOvereignis q foreigner
and can muster little following in strange country
to which he was called and will hold his empty
title and puppet place at the whim Of the people,
the most helpless and least puissant king in the
world.

Hannibal knew how to win victory but not how
to use it. President Roosevelt has to his credit q
series Of political and personal trumphs hardly ex-
celled in history. Most conspicuous Of them was
the Portsmouth achievement. It not only enhanced
his popularity at home but elevated him into uni
versal regard and esteem. Strange though the
statement may appear, the recent pOlictal victory
in Ohio In which he downed the Foraker forces is
the most important that he has ever won from the
standpoint Of his reputation. It marked che begin
ming Of the fight which he is compelled to wage
against the conservatives and defenders OF the old
order Of things IN bis party II he would live In
his country history as stateman and man Of ac-
cOmplishment. The Ohio fight was the beginning
Of the political struggle Tor Che issues by which he
must stand or fall-by which the RoOseveIt reputa-
ton will ultimately be measured. Whether be wins
or loses IN the struggle will depend almost solely
upon the quality Of his courage. The people are
with him almost to q unit. The standing politi-
clans representing privileged monopoly are his
enemies, and they are essentially at the mercy Of
the people. Mr.. Roosevelt must be prepared to
summon down che wrath Of the people even to the
extent Oi wrecking his party II be would dissolve
the opposition to his reform. Should he lack that
courage, his policies are doomed and his name will
be linked with failure e--and with Hannibal, who
knew not how to use victory.
