HALFWAY SOCIALISM.

President Roosevelt in his recent
order to withdraw the remaining coal
lands flom entry. expressed one of
the highest national ideals that is inn
aginable-that of saving the utilities
Of the earth for the public.
But lie stops before finishing his
splendid flight,
After no has retained the coal lands
for the people he is said to favor let
ting private corporations mine the coal
on the royalty plan, thus giving away
immense profits which could be saved
to the consumer in reduced price of
coal mined by the government.
The same argument applies here
that is applied to the government
construction of irrigation dams and
canals-if contractors can make good
profits, why not the government
Why not save the profits of the cor
porations for the people? why not
mine the coal and regulate its ship
ment and distribution and enforce
justice and secure the cheapest fuel
possible for the public
This halfway socialism is good as
far as it goes. But it stops too soon.

COST OF EDUCATION.

French statistics show the expenses
OF the various European states for
the education of their subjects. In
Germany there is one school to every
700 inhabitants, and on an average
100 children attend one school. The
expense amounts to 1926 cents a head
Of population.
In France there is school to every

COMNlENDS THE WOMEN.

Israel Zangwill, the well known
Jewish novelist, has written a letter
to the London Times. in answer to its
assertion that the recent disturbance
made by the suffragettes showed wo-
mems unfitness for the ballot. Mr..
Zangwill reminds the Times of tn,
Bristol riots. the Manchester massa-
Gre and other tumults that attended
the efforts of English workingmen to
get the suffrage, and says. eve should
rather be grateful to these women
for the feminine mildness of their
methods"
He adds: THE objection to female
franchise is so antiquated that it has
been abandoned even by such an ori-
entail people as the Jews, the Zionist
congress, which is the nearest ap-
proach to a Jewish parliament, per-
mtting women deputies equally with
men. But Europe still persists in re-
tanning this vestige of the harem stage
Of civilizations"

THE DRIFTING AWAY.

No tendency of the age is so strong
as that OF drifting away-from old
customs, from old inventions, old usa-
ges, CID doctrines. old dogmas, old
faiths, old idols!
In society, politics and religion the
constantly growing tide of progress is
rolling into the most unexpected
places. sweeping away the most stub
born opposition and carrying with it
the most unprecedented array of
prominent thinkers and workers ever
gathered together in the world
New thought is undermining the
very foundations of old faith. New
policies are tumbling down the most
splendid towers Of political conserva-
tism. New progress is crowding into
the sacred precincts of the Old usages
and before the world knows it, the en-
tire religious and political phases of
society will have been changed com.
pletely.
This drifting away is 50 gradual, 50
imprecept.ble, so silent-and yet so
potent so filled with transcendant
possibilities!
Cities. states, governments, churches
indiyiduals-are today embracing
"fanaticisms" so-called. which 10
years ago would have been classed as
dangerous to mankind, radicalism of
the most pronounced type has crept
into the heart Of the nation and to e.
day the new thought of progress is
permeating and vivifying the world as
never before.
Drifting away from old ideals; drift
ing away from old landmarks; drifting
away from wornout customs; forsak.
ing the old, embracing the new, that
is the program of the world.
1t is beautiful and inspiring, this
impercepthle transformation of a ma
tion, this changing of a nations heart
and mind. After all, the nation is
but a big individual, a symbol Of the
citizen.
As moods come to men, so do moods
and changes come to nations

1915 cents, In Spain there is also a
school to every 60e inhabitants and
IS children constitute the average at
tendance. Every child, however, re-
quires an annual expenditure of 25
cents.
In England conditions are similar,
but the cost amounts to 2725 cents
for each child. Austria has school
to every 1O4 pupils, and every 1900
at a cost of 19l cents.
In Russia there is a school to every
$500 Inhabitants. and the school ex-
of a Russian amounts to
5.5 cents.

"WoRKING OVER" BOYS BRAIN

Frank Brecht, IA years old, was
sent to school at st. Charles today by
Judge Mack of the juvenile court,
says a Chicago dispatch. The boy
will be given a special course of
treatment suggested by Prof ]. NJ.
Fitzgerald, a Chicago philanthropist,
in order that the lads nead and
brain may be remodeled and the de-
flciencies so developed as to make
him over into a normal youth.
The boy was examined in the court
room by Prof. Fitzgerald who had
been in an orphan asylum for seven
years. Many positions had been
found for the boy, but he lost them,
one after another.

used 30 gallons paste paint before and
bought 80 gallons DevOe. Had is left.
Paste paint is extra thick-with-

Mayor w. w. Carroll, Monticello,
Florida, says: My painter said 1t would
take So gallons to paint my house it
took 20 gallons Devoe. His house is the
best paint job in town and he says
Devoe is the whitest white Of all white
paints.
Jones & Rodgers bought gallons
Devoe to prime Mr.. Pratt's house at

The reason for nobody guessing little
