state and federal constitutions would
be neither wise nor a worthy policy,
but these privileges in nowise shield
cOunselors of crime or instigators of
disorder and rebellion. Any changes,
however sweeping, in our laws and
government may be urged and any
arguments, however wild or grotesque,
advanced to justify them provided the
method of change be orderly and. law
full, but a published writing recon-
mending the murder of the chief mag
istrate and the violent overthrow of
the government is a seditiOus libel at
common law, and there is no good rea-
son why public utterance of spoken
words of the same purport should not
be made the like offense by statute. 1t
is already a crime to advise felony
or grave misdemeanor if the advice
leads to the crime suggested, and there
is again no good reason why this
should not become a substantive of
fense without regard to its conse-
quences, as is a criminal conspiracy.
''The final and most truly vital con-
dition of success in ridding our coun7
try of anarchism in practice is that
American public opinion should recog-
nize the utter emptiness, the inherent
folly of its theory and of all the kin
dred ready made, furnished while you
wait schemes for the social regenera-
tion of mankind. Civilized society as
it exists today, if it be nothing more,
is the outcome of all the strivings for
justice and happiness of the human
race during thousands of years. What
monstrous presumption, what prepos-
ferrous conceit, for any man, were he
the wisest, the most learned, the most
justly famed of his own age or of all
ages, to imagine that, with but the dim,
fiickering lights of his own dull, fee
BILE mind, with but the few imperfect
lessons of his own short, i'll spent life
to guide his hand, he could cast down
and build up again this incredibly vast,
this infinitely complex, fabric and inn
prove on its structure"

CLEVELAND HAS MIRAGE.
Citizens See Canadian Town, Sixty
Miles Away, Upside Down In Sky.

Miles Away, Upside Down In Sky.
Cleveland, O., Aug 13.-Residents of
the Heights, in the eastern part of the
city, witnessed one of the most re-
markable mirages of which there is
any record in this part of the country.
Wonderfully clear and distinct, the Ca
madam shore of Lake Erie, sixty miles
distant, was spread out before them in
the sky. The phenomenon lasted for
over an hour and attracted the notice
of thousands of people before it faded.
The inverted atmospheric picture was
so clear that the city of Rondeau could
be plainly seen, the church spires and
principal buildings standing out in bold
relief. Tall trees and river emptying
into the lake could also be seen 1t is
the first mirage seen here in many
years, and local Weather Forecaster
Kenealy says that the recent heavy
rains over the lake may have had
something to do with creating atmos-
pheric conditions to make a mirage
possible. The sky to the north was re-
markably clear all day.

DOESN'T WANT THE JOB.
Nicholas Nicholaievitch Declines Conn
mand of the Russian Army.


st. Petersburg, Aug. IS. = Grand
Duke Nicholas Nicholaieyitch has de-
clined to accept the post of commander
in chief Of all the troops of the empire
"where martial law exists which was
rendered to him Aug 4. Whether this
was decided before or after the at
tempt ON the life of the grand duke
at Krasnoye-Selo ON Aug. 10 is not
known, but the ostensible reason is
that Grand Duke Nicholas believes
such a post should not be given to
grand duke, but to a purely military
man. He advocates the appointment
of General Lineyitch, formerly com
mander in chief of the Manchurian
army, but the emperor has not finally
decided the matter.

witz was observed with the usual dis

The day was quiet in the capital.
The activity of the terrorists in the
provinces included, besides the usual
harvest of assassinations in Warsaw,
an attempt on the life of General Ka-
rateieff chief of the gendarmerie of
Samara province and the wounding of
Captain of Police Ivanoff of Libau by
youth who fired thrice at him in the
street The assailant of General Ka-
rateieff mounted the stairs of the gen.
erals chancellory and threw a bomb
at random. The missile failed to ex-
plode and the miscreant escaped in
spite of hot pursuit
