ST PETERSBURG. Oct. n.-Count

the editors Of all the. st.. Petersburg
newspapers and asked for: their aid and
cooperation in restoring order and nor

the manifesto. :,
The count said he had telegraphed
to many eminent liberals to come to St.
Petersburg and assist in putting the
new, administration on a solid and &C
ceptable footing, but while: the railroad
strike prevented their arrival he was
forced to rely on the sober sense of the
St. Petersburg press, without whose as
sistance in calming the people, the gov
eminent could do nothing positive aud
would be obliged to content itself with
negative and even reactionary' meas
ures. E*:'
The editors present expressed the
fullest confidence in Count White, but
declared that they could not publish
their papers without the consent of the
strike committee. The editors Of >the
radical papers said that to content the
people it was necessary to- give the full

A HAIR CUT THAT LED
TO THE 300 YEARS WAR

From Pearson's Weekly:
The cropping of the flowing locks
and beard of Louis VII of France
brought on three centuries Of blood
she'd The archbishop of Rome had
decreed that the French king, as a
penance, should shave, and have his
hair cut short His appearance so
startled and amused his spouse, Queen
Eleanor, that she laughed aloud, and
began contemptuously to ftrt with
the count of Anjou, afterwards Henry
II of England.
The shorn king stood the disgrace
for a time, but at last sent evidence
of his grievance to the pope and OBJ
tanned a divorce. Eleanor then mar
ried Henry, and as her dover the
provinces of Poitou and Guienne passed
into his hands, Louis made hot attacks
on Normandy, and devastating wars,
which continued for some 300 years,
were the consequence of this cropping
of a monarch's head.

PUBLIC BLAMED FOR

Governor ]. w. Folk in October
"Men and Women"
If the people want good govern
ment they can have it, but .tney

and they must insist upon having IT,
The Indifference of voters is the
greatest menace to Republican
form of government.
Most people are honest, but they
are inactively so, while the vicious
majority are perniciously active. IL
is not enough to be merely honest.
We need more fighters in the army
Of peace. Aggressive methods only
will stamp out graft and corruption.
There are no necessary eNis IN
government. 1t is the abuses OF
government about which all good
citizens have a right to complain: II
the honest voters would assert
themselves, however, they could
have local and national government
of which theys0ould be-. proud. -
Good men will observe even: had
laws, and bad men will break even
good laws. All men, good and bad,
should be compelled. to obey every
law, good and bad, because 1t Is a
law. Disregard Of one law breeds
disrespect for all laws.
Many persons, thrill with patriotic
fervor at the thought of riskine
their lives on the battlefield, but
they forget to vote on election day
The patriotism of peace is as neces-
sary as the patriotism of war. The
man who will live every day for his
city and state is needed more by the
government than is the man willing
to die for his country.
The best citizen seldom goes tt
the primaries and often fails to vote
two duties that the bad citizen
never neglects. And when bad men
elect a bad man to office they sup
port him royalty in the evil he does
That is the chief cause of corruption
in American municipalities.
Let him who, without good cause
avoid his simple duty of casting a
ballot, be barred by law from all the
privileges that flow from citizenship
Men approaching something that
they are in. danger of losing.
In a word, we need the honest
votes of honest men. When these
unite and stay united, demanding
honesty in the conduct Of public .af'
