THE CITY OF GREAT BRITAIN.

Unless we command the sea we
cannot keep open the roads by which
our people are fed. Britain has In
effect ceased to be country. She
is now, considered from the political
and military point of view, a city,
though city with very large parks
and pleasuances and kitchen gardens
In which 10 grow her flowers, fruits
and vegetables. A city, from the
point of view OF war, may be de-
scribed as a place which If besieged
long enough must fall, since supplies
once consumed cannot be replenished
Britain answers to this description
The moment the sea roads to her are
closed by an enemy she is, ipso facto
in a state Of siege. Face to face with
a need so imminent, 1t would be mad
ness for us to give any consideration
to what we hope or believe are the
Intentions of this or that foreign
power. All that we can rightly do IL
considering how to secure our ma
tional safety and independence is t.
count ships and guns and to comput,
the units OF naval efficiency.-Londol

HALF-WiTTED YOUTH
MURDERS BENEFAcTREsS

HARTFORD, Conn, Nov. 10.-The
farmers hereabouts are trying to
lynch Charles Lynch the half-witted
youth who last night horribly muir
dered his benefactress, Mrs, Williams,
a woman of seventy who had fed,
nursed and cared for Lynch. He was
reader of dime novels and lives to
pour over crimes. Last night he told
an incoherent story to group of
farmers about finding the body of
Mrs. Williams lying in her own blood
with her head crushed and terribly
mutilated. 1t was soon found that
Lynch committed the deed and the
farmers are eager to kill him. SUI
perintendent Tygan of the state po-
lice says this morning: "The boy is
victim of hypnotic suggestion,
through reading of crimes he has be-
come the slave of homicidal impulse" I"

THE SOCIALIST MOVEMENT.


One of the triking features OF the
recent election in this state was the
growth OF the Sociali.t vote. From
vote of 200 in 1904, it has in
creased to $4,000 In the present cleo
tion.
OF course there are several reasons
why this vote may be considered ex-
ceptional. One of these was that
Haywood, the Socialist nominee for
governor, is believed by many OF his
friends to be unjustly accused.
Another is that two years ago Alva
Adams secured considerable share
of the Socialist vote, which this year
was given TO their own nominee. But
even If Haywood obtained many votes
from sympathy, still his vote may be
taken as indicating approximately the
strength of the Socialist movement in
Colorado.
Just whether this new party will
have its rise and fall after the man
ner of Populism and Greenbackism
remains to be seen. We cannot agree
that future contests are to be be-
tween the Republican party and So
cialist party, yet it is altogether likely
that this party will in the future poll
a sufficient number of votes to be-
come an important factor in the cleo
tions, and, in close contests, it is
barely possible that it may some day
take enough from one or the other of
the leading candidates to give his
the election. - Colorado

DENVER, Nov. 10.-In an address
delivered here last night Senator La
Fsllette of Wisconsin said less than
one hundred men control the indus
trial system of the nation, eight men
control the railroads, six men control
the beef trust and fix the price of
cattle, hogs and sheep. In three years
they have reduced the price of live
stock $160,O0O000 and raised the price
10 the consumer. The railroads are
over-capltalized $4,000, 100000 and the
people pay nearly s5,00o,00o a year to
pay interest on this watered stock.
The nations danger is from within.

This sounds like a big undertaking,
