dered, and Grant knew great man
when he saw one.
Every state and city in the south
had its men who went out to battle.
That they were fighters no union sol
dier who met them on the field will
deny. Their cause was wrong, but their
bravery, if nothing more, is worthy Of
memory.
So far as the safety Of the union is
concerned; there is absolutely no harm
in the increasing number of confeder-
ate monuments and commemorative
buildings arising in the south. Rather,
if one see it in the right light, the
possession on the part of the southern
people Of that spirit which prompts
them to revere the memory of fathers,
brothers and friends who fell in battle,
is only the expression in another form
Of that inmost feeling of intense at
tachment to things that are dear to the
heart, that, in time Of national trouble,
will make the south the more loyal to
the union and quicker to respond to any
call.

A Convert to Socialism.

Joseph Medill Patterson, whom
Mavor Dunno of Chicago appointed
commissioner of public works, has re-
signed, and in doing SO he notifies the
mayor that he has resigned because he
does not consider his plans of '1mme-
date multiplication immediate
enough nor broad enough. He quits,
not because he has gone: back on his
former opinions, but because he has
gone forward, as he expresses It,. In
other words, Mr.. Patterson has become
a socialist, and as such he will PROB
ably be hailed as grand convert to
the. doctrines of the common ownership
of property. Mr.. Patterson says he
cannot see why money, (which is the
greatest thing in life, should not be
more or less evenly distributed, as the
ballot is. The universal ballot gives
every male citizen an equal political
opportunity. The common ownership OF
all the means of production and dis
tribution would give everybody All
equal chance at music, art, power, sport
study, recreation, travel, self-respec'
and the respect Of others.'
Holding these views, Mr.. Patterson
could no longer consent to serve ar

The Christian has it's faults. 1t

artistic; and occasionally the action
moves haltingly, but on the whole it

In the creation Of John Storm and
Glory Quale the author demonstrated
his greatness. These clear-cut, striking
characters, silhouetted as they are
against background of cupidity,
themselves enough to raise The Chris
tian above the mediocre.
In portraying John Storm, Ralph
Stuart's Interpretation of the strong,
self-contained man Of God seeking
where he can do good to suffering hui
mainly and still controlled by an over
mastering love, is consistent, compelling
and artistic. In the third act, where
he is convinced that it is his duty to
take the life Of the woman he loves,
but is swerved and conquered by his
love, he rises to real histrionic heights.
Miss Henrietta Browne plays the

mIttee.

What the politicians generally under
stand by an early convention has been
knocked out by the decision Of Chairman
Hamlin, who now says he will call the
state committee together in time for a
convention call dated in May. 1t is un-
derstood that the committee will meet
about April Is. This means that the
convention cannot be held before May 15.
Many have favored an April convention,
but that did not suit the powers that rule
in the committee. There was desire
among the members of the committee for
meeting about March 1. The point
was that there should be a chance given
the committee to decide between an early
| and a late convention. Now there is very
little latitude. The convention will either
| be held the latter part of May, or early
| in June Any proposition to hold it later
| in the season will meet with the most
strenuous opposition. The date of the
convention, therefore, has been roughly
settled without any consultation of the
| committee d whole.
| The location and the basis of repre-
sentation will be the main contest. Du

location lies between. ST. Paul and Duluth.
/ AS to representation, there will be
three propositions one to base the call
on the Roosevelt vote, one to use the
Dunn vote, and another to compromise
by taking the average of these two.
or the average vote cast on the
4 state ticket. The Roosevelt vote will
make a big convention fairly representa-
[ tive of republicans. and a compromise
> basis will not be much opposed, but any
scheme to punish localities that cut the
: head of the ticket will only prolong and
embitter the factional feeling in the
5 party. Conservative counsels will favor
, the compromise.

JoURNEYINGs AMONG THE MAGA-
ZINES. JOURNEY NO. a.-New York.
March 1.--Thomas W. Lawsorl's copy
and the Journals correspondent reached
the office of Everybody's Magazine the
other day at about the same time OF
course, the correspondent had to wait; he
was not such "hot stuff'', al Mr.. Lawson's
copy, and, besides, he was not to go
into the magazine. An assistant editor
after trip or two into the sacred place
OF Eyerybody's editor, told the visitor to
return the next day at 3 o'clock and he.
Would be introduced to the sacred pre-
c1nct of Everybo guiding spirit and be
permitted to hold communion with the
spirit itself. The terms were acceptable.
and the next day the correspondent re-
turned to- find that the spirit was very
substantial specimen, bearing the name
of John O'Hara Cosgrave.
Mr. Cosgrave is man Of ample. tho
not too ample, proportions for man be-
hind such guns as Everybodys fires
| every month. He has light hair a clear
| eye. sharp nose and pleasing smile.
NO man your correspondent has met
| among the magazines of New York has a
better defined idea of what he is trying
to do than Mr.. Cosgrave. He came to
New York from San Francisco, where he
got his training for magazine editorial
|
read all Of the important magazines thor
oily. AS result, he knew what each
was doing or was not doing, and what he
could do with the magazine of which he
was to take charge. The success of
Everybody's is evidence of clear-headed
guide
Mr.. Cosgrave primarily. seeks to make
his magazine an entertainer. A secondary
motive Is to give informa ton on subjects
OF vital importance, such as the "Sys-
tenn" for example ~
The home of Everybody's is way UP in
the air; it occupies the eleventh floor OF
a tall slice Of a building looking south
ward across Union square toward lower
Broadway, the home of the Standard Oil
company, at which the magazine does
something more than make eyes. Those
who thing Everybody's may lose its
grip on the attention Of the public wher
Mr.. Lawson shall have ceased to- be E
contributor, are reckoning without the
host of the magazine, So long as thu
present editor sits in his swivel chai
and scans the, horizon for material To-
his magazine, the public may rest assured
there will bes something good In it To-
readers of all classes.

Rank Discrimination

Glass legislation of the clearest kind
is found in the tax laws of Minnesota,
by which corporations paying taxes
direct to the state may put off settle
ment for months or years without
penalty, while private citizens suffer
a 10 per cent addition to their taxes
for failure to toe the mark.
This is an important suggestion for
the next legislature. 1t is absurd to
penalize the ordinary taxpayer for de-
lay, while railroads and telegraph com
panies actually profit by holding to
their money. Most Of the railroad com
panies of the state have been prompt
in settlement, and are entitled to credit
for refusing to take advantage OF the
laws loopholes. Butq, one company is
now in arrears, and it is sad to relate
that this is the company whose -presi-
dent has been publicly defending the
rights Of the public and the small ship

should expect different dealing with the
state. The company, however, is con-
testing the payment Of the per cent
tax, and has not even paid the 2 per
cent it admits to be due March !. Nc
interest or other penalty can be as
sessed for the delay ~. r..
| The case Of the Western Union is
more aggravated. This corporation has
refused to recognize the $1,00O,OOO val
uation placed on its property in 1899
and every year since. Each year the
company has made it's own valuation
and paid on that basis The state suee
| on the taxes for 1899 and 1900, and go
a judgment. which was upheld by tn
supreme court. There is no possible
excuse for refusing to pay on the sue
ceeding years, but the state has beer
compelled to bring another suit to col
lect the balance due on 1901, 1902, 100
and 1904. It costs the company littl
