MCCLELLAN JUST BEGINNING.

he won't know he's had an opponent"

Russia and Her Troops.

The story is abroad that Russia
will not allow her troops who have
been engaged in the war in the Far
East to return home, but will station
them along the Chinese frontier.
The reasons for this are alleged to be
the fear of the troops joining the
malcontents and the hope of intimi-
dating the Chinese.
Russia's army in Manchuria is sup
posed to number about 100000 men,
most of them well-seasoned by hard
ship and educated somewhat to the
abuses of her military system and
bureaucratic incompetency. These
men would be dangerous elements if
injected into the already seething dis
content at home. and Russia has all
she can attend to now.
At present the men are safely out
of the way more than three thou
sand miles from home, and they are
likely to stay there, for there is no
way home except over the govern
ment railroad. But Russia is bound
to increase the discomfort at home
no matter what she does. If the
men should be brought back the stu
alton would be met bravely and
squarely; it might be acute for a
while, but government strong
enough TO take that risk would com
mend itself to the people. If, on the
other hand, they are kept in the Far
East, the dull, slow brains and slug
gish hearts of the mujiks at home
Will smolder with wrath at this adj
ditional injustice, and when the
flames do break out they will be that
much the fiercer.

Legs and Literature.

The relation of legs to the stage
has long been a fruitful field for
speculation, intellectual and finan-
cial; but who would have thought
that legs and literature had more in
common than their initials? True,
the feet of verse have tripped their
light fantastic way, or dragged their
slow lengths along, from the days
of Homer down TO Alfred Austin;
and if feet, therefore legs. The polite
supposition, however, has commonly
been that literature, like the ladies.
may have feet, but as for legs-perish
the thought,
The march of modern discovery is
irresistible. Mr. Bailey Willard has
uncovered the legs of literature in all
their statuesque and classic proper
tons, and henceforward the muses.
will turn the mincing steps proper
to ladylike feet into the manly stride
of well-turned athletic legs.
Mr.. Willard. after a painstaking
and peripatetic research in the liter
ature of the world. finds that good
writer's have good legs. Writing in
the Critic, Mr.. Willard traces the
walking habits of the worlds great
est poets, romancers, and philoso-
pliers and finds that almost without
exception they were pedestrians of
no mean ability. Byron was a great
walker: so was Scott Victor Hugo
not only walked a great deal, but
stood at his desk when writing.
Wordsworth, Tennyson, and Brown
ing walked their poetry into shape,
and Christopher North was as long
winded in a walk as he was in writ
ing. Dickens walked as many hours
as he wrote, and philosophy from
the Peripatetic School down to mod
ern times stands squarely on soG1e
legs.
Mr.. Willard finds the reason for
this relation between legs and Iitera-
ture lin the physiological condition
that results from the swinging OF
the legs, which movement quickens
heart action and stimulates the brain
by supplying it with biiood charged
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1905-10-09

with the lifegiving principle of the
open air" Perhaps there may be a
further relation between the rhythm
of movement in walking and the beat
of sound and thought forms in liter
allure. Certainly, the relation of
heart-beats TO music and poetry has
been well worked out and is now
fairly well understood
AS resultant from his discussion
of the great authors as great walkers,
and perhaps with a side light on the
invertebrate letters of the day, Mr..
Willard urges our writer's to avoid
trolleys, bicycles, and automobiles,
and get on their legs. The recent
tendency has been for writer's as soon
as they get on their feet to get off
their legs; but as he well shows, if
we wish to have a good standing
they must walk.
This beautiful October weather
should tempt the LATEST and most
unpoetic to use his legs. Who
knows; a walk in the autumn fields
may tinge the soul with a bit of flow
cry gold or cause the purple clouds
of fancy to melt into castles of ro-
nance.

Not the Best. But Good.

Two important municipal cam
paigns are now opening. In Phila-
delphia organized indignation is
fighting organized desperation. In
New York organized strength is
fighting disorganized weakness. The
outlook in both cities is good-that
the Indignantes in Philadelphia will
sustain their mayor in the cause of
good government, and that the best
mayor Tammany Hall has ever elect
ed will be reelected without having
: TO rely upon Tammany Hall.
In both cities the weaker side is
adopting unusual methods.

into line against the machine, and

Mr.. Mcclellan. 1t was ready to unite
on any possible candidate-Republi-

became impossible it went to the
center of public interest, the insur-
ance investigation, dragged the chief
figure into its calculations, and noiini-
mated him. Mr.. Hughes was quoted
in our Saturdays issue as saying:

A better candidate than Mr. McClel-

machine would choose; and he has
