The fact that Mark Twain kept his
hat on in the presence of Edward VII
was considered of enough Importance
to cable around the world Why
shouldn't Mark Twain keep his hat on
and why should such a fuss be made
over such a trivial matter? Next
Thursday every orator in the country
in working trim will be telling us that
each and every one of us is a SOW
ereign. We have been told that before.
Why shouldn't we exercise the rights
of sovereignty? Edward VII is only
an English sovereign. Mark Twain is
an American sovereign and right royal
ly he beers the honor of that SOW
ereignty. You are right old boy, You
are older than Edward VII and YOU
have told almost as many good stories
as Edward has smoked dollar cigars.
You have our permission to keep your
hat on and to go out in the street in
a bathrobe whenever you want to.

CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE LORDS.


has introduced and explained reso-
luton against the House of Lords. In
effect the resolution asserts the right
of the House of Commons to pass a
bill over the vote of the House of
Lords The Premier hopes that the
feeling against the upper house is suf-
tlclent to stay the storm that has been
aroused by the failure of the Liberal
ministry to carry out it's anti-election
pledges. The dissatisfaction with the
Educational Bill and the complete
failure of the Irish Bill has left the
Liberals in a very weak position be-
fore the country, understanding
their large majority.
There is in England strong feel
ing against the upper House Even
some of the Conservatives are in ia
vor of some measure of reform in that
direction. Several Conservative
newspapers have proposed the use of
the referendum to settle differences
between the two Houses. That is,
whenever the House of Lords rejects a
measure passed by the House of Com
mons. the matter should be referred to
the people, thus giving the people an
opportunity to sustain the House of
Commons or to sustain the veto of
the Lords. Such measure should be
entirely satisfactory to advanced Lib
erals and Radicals. 1t would intro
duce a novel principle into English
government. 1t is probable that the
Liberal ministry would not he willing
to so to such a length. Conservatives
realize that something must be done
if the House of Lords is to be saved.
They evidently prefer to save the veto
power of the House Of Lords by pro-
vding for a referendum. Under such
system the House of Lords would have
it in their power to any time compel
an appeal to the country.

A GREAT PULPIT ORATOR

London is stirred by the powerful
sermons of Father Vaughan. For some
time this really great pulpit orator
has been preaching to London on the
sins of society. The Jesuit church of
the Immaculate Conception in Rerk-
ley Square. in the very heart of fash
ionable London. is thronged with all
classes of people. Catholics and Prot
estants. Non-Conformists, Church of
England adherents. Americans and
English, to hear Father Vaughan. The
preacher belongs to one of the most
noted families of England and his
modest church is in the midst of his
toric surroundings. 1t is directly be-
hind the residence of Lord Rosebery
A few doors away is the house where
the great Give lived and died A little
further on is the home Of the Marouise
of Lansdowne and yet little further
is Devonshire House.
1t is in this neighborhood that the
great Jesuit preacher thunders against
pride, extravaganza, frivolity. the love
of money and the love of pleasure.
About a year ago he began to preach
on the sins Of society At first they
would not hear him. His first SER
mons were on the sins of the Smart
Set. 1t vexed English society. and

Frank Day had been abroad in the land
announcing what Governor John A.
Johnson would do in reference to the
Democratic nomination for president
The private secretary was at the time
without the jurisdiction of the State
OF Minnesota and our helpless goS-
ernor was at homa doing the best he
could to countera2t the work Of the
private secretary. Just why the private
secretary did this We are unable to
figure out. We recognize his import
ance. Every Democrat who has been

portance. Many of us have been there
to see the governor and the Importance
of our business made it necessary for
us to see the private secretary. 1t may
be that the private secretary was not
as we'll known west Of the Rockies
and east of the Aleghanies as he is
throughout the broad prairies of Min
nesota. but why was it necessary for
the private secretary. in order to add
to the dignity and glory of an Office
already too important, to really iniure
the presidential prospects of a deserving
and able candidate like Governor John

the hands Of the people is no argu-
ment against him. We just mention
that fact in passing Our complaint is
that the private secretary, being al
