cient. remarks the St. Louis Repub- lie
 Most of them may be summed up in the one; namely. that the country in the main has not taken kindly to it and that congressmen do not like it. it comes upon them too sudden ly and there is the appalling possihil- ity that by the time they could get used to it another executive order might establish another rule of spell .ng more novel and 2uxzIing than this one.
 The most important lesson which the house has imparted to the presi- dent is that his great office is not one for the indulgence of personal whims and that established customs and us. ages cannot suddenly be changed by nkese from any source. It is not with out ihe bounds of possibility that the standard dictionaries may gradually adopt the radically changed spelling he recommends for some words in his list. even as some of them are now au. thorized and used. hut there is a wis inerslae in the human mind which re bels against sudden innovations.
 Mir. Roosevelt will find that this force will be as eifectualiy exerted against his fantastic aims for reforma ;ion of the constitution and the gen eral system of government Tn the United States as against his initial attempt to reform the language.
 While the house members resen; the effort to make them read public documents by one dictionary and the newspapers by another the army grumbles at the claim thats he ought to have the right to disband any part of it or dismiss at will any of its of. ficers.
 The Pacific coast successfully re volts against his pretensions 10 a right to control its schools. and the common sense of the whole country condemns all his freakish plans for giving 10 the constitution of the Unit ed States a different interpretation from thst which courts and con gresses have given to it during the last six score years.
 If the president will take to heart the lesson which the house has given he will save himself much embarrass- ment during tho two years end more which remain of his term

After all is said 1t must be conced. ed that the apparent disregard for human life in the United States is largely tribute to progress and to the industries that constitute prosper ity.. Even fatal railroad accidents the largest item in the list, cannot be wholly eliminated. though they can and ought to be greatly reduced in number. But railroad accidents are only one item in the list of annual fatanties. There are fatal accidents in mining. building. manufacturing and agriculture. They all claim their victims as a sort of tribute to pro gress, though a very costly one. Care fully compiled statistics show that in the five great industries of railroad ing. mining. building. manufacturing and agriculture no less than 536. 1G5 persons are annually killed or in jured i.. the United States. This is at the rate of over one a minute, and it includes only few of the largest industries.

the generally accepted idea of the humanitarianIsm of the century?

the generally accepted idea of the IhumanitarianIsm of the century? All the pages of history do not snow a character so soulless or character less as this Leopold of Belgium. His victims are not counted by the thous-
 ands but by the millions. He gives them a task to bring in a certain amount of rubber. Failing to do that.
 no matter what the reason. the be- nighted Congoites lose a leg. a hand an eye and ultimately their head. In certain sections of the Congo the pop
 ula.ion. once dense. has been fearfully decimated
 A newspaper artist in flash of gen ius recently depicted Leopold's vic tims in ghastly and horrifying draw ing. He showed bare plain. itself suggesting death and eternity. Across | it and as far as the perspective car Tried were skeletons of those who had died at Leopold's command. They presented solid formation extendin< Oftt tLt Fdot anu ucsoidtc pidih anu
 seemingly there were millions of
 them. It was Leopo.d's army of the dead.
 And the shame of it is that never a
 dollar of the blood money this mon. ster has gathered is used for worthy purpose. It would not be far remiss
 to say that for every dollar Leopold
 has gathered, some victim in the Con
 go has lost either limb or his life. And what does he do with it? Ask
 those who during the season haunt the Riviera. Ask that score or more of profligate women upon whom he has wasted his millions in past years. adyeuturers whom he has picked from every land and cline. Ask of his daughters who will have nothing 10 do with their inhuman father. Ask of Brussels. tho gay capital of his
 kingdom, what orgies be carries on at his villas there and in its environs.
 Any of these would tell how he spends
 bis money. Never centime does he spend but that it represents drop of blood. Is 1t not about time the world was interfering?

pie of Fl Paso. after hauling the same two hundred and fifty miles further not less than 1t charges them. which would only be fair and just. but mere ly the same-and this just and fair re- quest it denies us, and continues to charge us from ten to thirty per cent more for the shorter haul to Albuquer- que than it charges for the longer haul to Fl Paso. thus violating not only every principle of fairness and justice. but also the plain letter and spirit of the United States law
 An attempt is made to justify this practice under that clause of the acy which permits the long-and-short-ha haul provision to be suspended by the com mission when circumstances and con ditions are So different and .dissimiiar as to warrant it. and the railroad com pany has assumed that the fact of there being competition at Fl Paso and not at Albuquerque constitutes "dissimilarity of conditions sufficient to warrant the present and unjust and unlawful practice. put the commission has ruled in just such case in Ala bama that competition of itself, does not constitute such dissimiiarlty as the law coniemplates. and Is merely one of several conditions necessary to constitute such dissimilarity.
 Hence it seems clear that an appea! by Albuquerque merchants to the in- terstate commerce commission would achieve the end we are aiming at, but that course We have always opposed because this town has always been friendly to the Santa Fe road, and we have always regarded the road as friendly to the town, and have be- iieved. and still believe. that if we could get the real ,.cts in the case to the attention of .ue chief officials of the road. the wrong We complain of would be righted by the company. But by the one means or the other this unjust. unfair and unlawful dis crimination against the town must be stopped.

We should dis like to lose The Star-Spangled Ban ner'' chiefly because of its patriotic origin on board an American frigate during the British bombardment, and we lose to recall such incidents as that ia Castle Garden. when Daniel Webster, to the distress of his wife, end the delight of the audience. set the example of rising. which has since become common, and. by main strength and with mighty voice. 5oiu- ing in the chorus with Jenny Lind But, after all. only the words are American. the atrocious music being that Of "AnacreoE in Heaven" com posed by an Engiishman- lt is there fore distinctiveiy national only in part. and after nearly century of try ing service might well be laid on the shelf. A yet more efficient reason for seeking a substitute is found iD the fact that the American peopic have been trying :n vain for nearly 2 century to sing i;. Despite the gen eral cultivation of voices, the endeav- or of an audience today to respond to the demand upon their patriotic spir' it continues to be as pathetic as il has eyer been desperate. Even cur loyal navy takes America" in place of "The S,ar-Spsngied Banner" al evening colors.

A Brief Parable.

A certain man carried sack con.
tanning a heavy burden, and he had
borne 1t many weary days.
Then as he journeyed the Angel OF
knowledge came to him and spoke to
him. saying:
"What dost thou carry?"
And the man replied: at is heavy,
heavy BURDEN
"Of what does the burden consist ?"
the angel asked.
"of my WORRIES" the man made
answer.
Ther- he angel smiled pityingly
upon the man, and said.
let us look into the bundle of thy
Worries
And they looked. and 10! even as
they looked the contents of the sack
dwindled into nothingness.
For when the Angel of knowledge
teaches man to look Alright he per.
ceives that his worries are but tiny
and useless things and the burden OF
them grows inconceivably light.-San
Francisco Call.

Let us look on life as a landscape
dotted with mounds. hills, and noun
tains. Do not let us fix our eyes on
little hillock and rest satisfied when
its petty summit is reached. The man
who does that is apt to go down the
other side unwittingly. Let us rather
strain our eyes and thoughts to the
peak of yonder high and noble noun
tain; and although the toll of years
may find us only on one of the lower
edges, that truly is better than allow
ing the years to pass merely as mile
stones on the dry and dusty highway
of life, as stages nearer to the un.
known spot where We must fall out

EARNED THE SINGING REroR1
Fresh "prummers" siieneed by Sweet
Old Quakeress.

FtCbn ''OFufnTUCIS o'S'SSe ~ S"'SSh
Old Quakeress.
In the train sat poor old Quak-
eress. She wore a silver gray dress.
snowy collar, and such sweet hat.
She was a big, handsome woman, and
her large Madonna face beamed with
benevolence and love. A ruby or a
diamond ornament would have mar
red her beauty.
Two fresh, smart young CONNER
cial travellers came in the car at a
station and sat down Just back of
her. One could easily observe by
their actions that neither of them had
much experience ION the road" and
one passenger allowed that 1t is
their first trip as drummers."
After they had discussed the liquor
and tobacco trade a while and told
each other what large orders they
had received in different towns they
had made" they looked at the old
woman ahead of them, smiled at each
other, then one of the fresh young
snipes said:
Fred, guess the old lady is in
fated with Quaker yeast"
Turning in her seat, without lifting
her eyes, the old woman remarked SO
low that only a few passengers heard
It:
IF thy father and mother had con-
sumed more sweet Quaker yeast and
less bad beer and tobacco. thee would
have been better raised and better
bred"
Then 1t was so still that you could
hear the engine pump.

STUDIED TO BE "GENTLEMAN."
EngIishman Took Position of Serv-
ant to Acquire Polish.

English exchanges tell of young
oabman in Birmingham who attracted
the notice of an eccentric old lady
because of his resemblance to her
dead son She bequeathed to him the
bulk of her fortune on condition that
he went to college and did all he
could to become gentleman. Being
quick and clever, he had no great
difficulty in acquiring a sufficiency of
Greek and other learning. but he
shrewdly suspected that if he went to
either Oxford or Cambridge at once
he would not feel at home among his
new companions. So. putting pride
in his pocket, he obtained place as
scout" or servant, at one of those
seats of learning and profited so much
by what he saw and observed in this
humble position that when he eventu-
ally proceeded to the other university
as student he was able to pass cred
itably.
