.ABOUT 1 GENER RATIoN.

Once upon a time there was an evil and adulterous generation which got properly reprimanded. Is the present generation any better than that one was? President schurman of Cornell thus describes it: It is a generation which has no fear of God before its eyes; it fears no hell; it fears nothing but the criminal court, the penitentiary and the scaffold: to escape these ugly avengers of civil society is it's only categorical imperative, the only law with which its Sinai thumders, To get there and not get caught is it's only Golden Rule; to get rich quick the financiers will rob the widow and the orphan, grind the faco of the poor, speculate in trust funds and purchase immunity by using other peoples moneys to bribe legislators, judges and magistrates.
 According to this, the present gener- alton is pretty bad. It is also pretty good in some respects, and may have enough salt in it to save it from utter destruction. Let us hope that it has.

THE SOCIALISTS IN SAxoNY.

The Socialists in Saxony are begin
 ming vigorous agitation for an exten-
 sion of the suffrage. The reactionary
 revision of the electoral system in 1896
 and the adoption of the Prussian three
 class method of election resulted in the
 complete exclusion of the Socialists from the popular chamber This result,
 which was in striking contrast to the election of twenty-two Social deputies, out of total of twenty-three, to the Reichstag by Saxony in the year 1903, has, in connection with other causes such as unsatisfactory finances and the agrarian policy of the Saxon govern ment in pre-eminently industrial country-intensifed popular discontent. There has been talk of a general strike, and street demonstrations of a some what menacing character have taken place in Dresden. The other evening several Socialist meetings were held, and though the principal speakers warned their followers against process sions and open-air demonstrations, several thousand strong marched through the streets to the res- idence of the minister president, Herr von Metzsch, in one of the suburbs. In, the neighborhood of the minister's house the crowd encountered the police, who drew their swords and dispersed the gathering with some bloodshed, but without any loss of life During the at least one shot was fired from revolver by one of the crowd. There have been reports of the resigna- tion of Herr von Metzsch, but they are contradicted and it is asserted that the and the king are in entire agreement as to the way in which dis orderly Socialist demonstrations should be dealt with.

little grouch got loose one day
 To lurch and bump around, And ever as it rolled away some one had rueful things to say
 Or, saying nothing, frowned. man whose heart was full of song Ceased suddenly to sing, And, .grumbling sadly, went along Convinced that hopelessness and wrong Were over everything. maid with glory on her face And laughter in her eyes Sat down to ponder on her case, Alas, the worlds a cheerless place, She murmured through her slghs. mother who had sweet1y smiled
 And crooned a lullaby Turned sadly from her fretful child And, with hunted look and wild,
 Expressed a wish to die. A rosy boy who lightly played
 About upon the floor, Without preliminaries made Remarks that loss of glee betrayed
 And rose and kicked the door. Let not the grouch you have get loose, Pounce on it at it's birth. Put round it's neck a double moose And guard 1t well, lest 1t produce New troubles for the earth
