To Simplify Spelling i.

A society has been organized in
New York for TIE purpose Of urg-
ing the simplifcation of English
spelling, The name of tie asso-
citation is the Simplified Spelling
Board, and an appeal will be made
to all persons who for educational
or practical reasons wish to make
English spelling easier to acquire.
The expense Of the organization
will be borne by Mr. Andrew Car
negie, who has long believed that
English will become the world-lan-
guage of the future and make pos
sible universal peace.
The Simplified Spelling Board
proposes to expedite that process Of
simplifcation in the spelling of
words which has been going on in
England ever since the invention
of printing, notably in the omis-
sion of silent and useless letters.
No extreme theories will be ad.
yocated, nor will be urged any vio-
lent alienation in the appearance
Of familiar words.
The association will consist Of
thirty members. living in various
parts of the country. Some of
them are authors Of wide reputation;
some are professed scholars connect
ed with leading Universities; some
are distinguished editors, and some
are men prominent in the affairs Of
public and civil life Of the country.

Easter Pilgrims In Jerusalem

Two Americans stood in the
Chapel of the Hcly Sepulcher on
the afternoon of Easter Day, They
were chatting in subGued voices,
and referring frequently to their
guide Look. No one would call
them pilgrims; they were simply
sightseers. Turning around to
leaye the room, a Russian woman
was seen standing in a corner as
far away from the Sepulcher as she
could get. Dressed in the common
garb of peasant, including the
heavy boots, she carried DO book
to describe the place. She needed
none; she knew more than the book
could have told her; she believed
more than the authors knew. Tears
streamed from her eyes and flowed
without restraint over her coarse
garments: she was near the place
where tie oodv Of her Lord had
rested, land a holy hush oversbadow-
ed her soul.
Throughout the hurch the pill
grims were kneeling, kissing rap.

is said the body of Jesus was laid,

THE MAN WHO MAKES THE STATE

THE MAN WHO MAKES THE STATE
He had never gone through college,
and his store Of varied kno Wedge
Was accumulated wholly by the
hardest kind of knocks.
He had never led cotillions and in
herited no millions,
But he had to steer his vessel by
some sharp financial rocks.
In the world Of stock imitation he
had neither part nor station,
And he never posed as champion
of nations honor bright.
But each day it was his pleasure to
contribute humble measure
OF the honest toll which b!esses
and which keeps things NOV
ing right.
In the world of huge stock jobbing,
planned for purposes of robbing
He had neither part nor parcel, and
he had no tariff graft.
No press agents he kept writing,
gifts to colleges indicting,
To keep blazing his coenomen on
some bronze or marble shaft
In coal oil and fabrication he had
neither part nor station,
And he never claimed trustee
ship, like the sainted Mr. Baer.
Out each day. sunshine or raining.
ev'ry energy was straining
To treat ey'ry fellow being that
he met upon the square.
In his meek and humble station he
had some participation
In the politics winch stirred up
quite u lot of heated strife.
But he thought his thoughts and
voted after each claim had been
noted.
And he acted rs he thought best
for the nations better life.
Press dispatches never touted, of
his charity ne'er spouted,
And among the swell 400" he
had neither part nor place.
But each day, no duty Sinking, he
put in at honest working.
And he ate his bread in comfort
in the sweet upon his face.

If the socialists are going to
permit themselves to be gobbled
up by the Democratic party, so
much tie worse for the former; it
will mean that the advancement of
the socialistic doctrine will be re-
tarded for years in that event.
The Democrats are 60 more dis
posed to advance socialism nnw
than they were to advance popul,
ism ten or twelve years ago
Theories and isms mean nothing
more to the Democrats than an
opportunity to get into Office.
They will make pretense at at-
filiating with the socialists while
they hold the idea that the latter
can be duped into aiding the Dem
ocrats into power. Down under
its skin the Democracy is Bour-
bon, and it can never be anything
else.

whites upon defenseless negroes
''race wars" do SO apparently to
blind the north to the true cond;-
ton of things in the south.
