British Socialists.

From sources Of information not usI-
ally regarded as sensational" Aineri-
cans might AT present get the idea that
British society has reached a parlous
pass. The London Standard has been
describing the march of events in series
Of articles. Of which this extract will give
a fair idea:
Bl far the more numerous and dangerous sec
iion oi English Socialists for getting what they
want BY methods OF force. The worst passions OF
the people are being aroused by grossly c1ag.
gerated statements OF their wrongs Men are in.
cited to robbery and violence. 4 special effort is
being made r undermine the loyalty OF the army
soon. II things go on as at present. all the labor
organizations will. as in France, be in the hands OF
revolutionary Socialists, Men will be killed: whole
districts will be reduced TO starvation. There will
be millions OF desperate men and women In the
country. and at last the time viii be ripe for the
coup oc rorce--for the social revolution"
The Standard is as generous with this
last word as II its aim were 6pater les
bourgeois. II brandishes what il calls
"the red plant of revolution" so freely
that the firmness of the plants roots, falls
under suspicion. But similar blasts of
alarm are proceeding from good many
other Conservative organs. and in con-
crete expression of them various anti
revolutionary societies are being hurried
into existence. The latest is the "Con-
stitutional Speakers League, which will
fight the Socialists on their own lines.
II will have none but workingmen as
members and il is building vans to carry
workingmen lecturers from market place
to market place all Ground the land. The
British Constitution League" offers
scope for like eGor TO the richer classes.
In an emphatic prospectus this society
demands support from all who love Eng
lands glory, under pain of seeing that
light eclipsed by the Socialist cloud.
No doubt Great Britain is passing
through grave crisis, but the character
of the crisis is perhaps somewhat dis
torted by the authority We have quoted.
There exist in fact political and social
motives for exaggerating and misrepre-
senting it, and these motives should be
taken into account ip this country. II
Great Britain is really falling into the
grasp Of revolutionary socialism the
circumstance must seriously concern
ourselves, not only because the close con-
nection of the two countries facilitates
the TRANSMISSION Of any such virus but
because We have a large quantity of
Anglo-Saxon stock, and if the Anglo
Saxon mind in one part of the world is
revealing a genuine susceptibility TO
theoretical socialism--a susceptibility
hitherto supposed TO be strange TO il
there is no saying how soon il may
display the same symptoms elsew here.
The party political motive for diIating
this British agitation is evident enough.
The Conservatives would make it out TO
be coextensive with the whole party op-
posed to themselves. Mr.. +. E. SMITH,

venience TO national, State, municipal
and all other domestic governments, not
TO speak Of citizens who owned national
flags for display on patriotic occasions,
not to speak also of American diplo-
matte and consular officers, IL II were
ordered that a new star should be put
into the flag on the day Of the admission
Of State.
The law Of 1918 provided that "the
flag OF the United States should have
thirteen horizontal alternate red and
white stripes, and further that:
"on the admission OF every new state into the
Union one star be added TO tho union OF the nag:
and that such addition shall take effect the fourth
OF July next succeeding such admission"
Oklahoma, which is to become State
by Presidential proclamation on No
vember Is, will therefore not be starred
on the flag for more than seven months
after it's admission. Oklahoma has al
ready elected Governor and members
Of the national House OF Represents
tives. In anticipation OF the birth OF the
new State a joint board Of army and
navy officers, Of which Admiral DEWEY
was president arranged the order OF the
forty-six stars for the new national flag.
In his book The Stars and Stripes" MIR.
PELEG ID. HARRISON says:
when In 1859 Congress voted Its thanks 10
Captain s. C. REp the designer Of the present nag.
friend of his trod. through q prominent member
from New York. 10 have . clause inserted In the
resolution which would establish the manner OF
placing the white In the blue neld Of the can
ton. but this dosircd proviso was rejected"
The stars OF the present flag are now
arranged in six rows, eight stars in the
first. third and fifth rows and seven
stars in the second, fourth and sixth
rows. Orders for that arrangement
were issued early in lsS8 by Secretaries
LAMONT and HERBERT of the War and
Navy Departments to give Utah repre-
sentation. Admiral DEwEY's board de-
cided that the new arrangement on
July 4, 1908. should be eight stars in the
first, third, fourth and sixth rows and
seven stars in the second and fifth rows.
The stars in the union or blue field will
form one harmonious and symmetrical
whole only when New Mexico and Ari-
zona are admitted Then the field will
consist Of six rows Of eight stars. The ad-
mission Of new State should be a great
boon to the flag makers and merchants.
A vast number Of flags must be altered
to conform to the prescribed order or
discarded for new flags. Yet it will be a
long time before all the flags showing
forty-five stars are retired; a man may
continue to display the old flag and be
good citizen. and few count the stars.
IL will not, however, be wholesome for
an Oklahoman, we imagine, to flaunt a
flag of forty-five stars on or after the
next Fourth of July.

The Department of Commerce and
Labor.

A commcndable step is taken by Sec
retary STRAUS in his request, for a con-
ference with representatives Of the COM
mercial interests Of the country. When
the Department Of Commerce and Labor
was created il was made sort OF catchall
for an assortment Of bureaus having no
special relation TO each other and very
little 10 do directly with the expansion
Of American foreign trade. It's work
thus far has been on the whole efficient
but largely routine, with the exception
Of that OF the Bureau Of Corporations.
That bureau, as The Sun has often said,
is distinctly out of place. IL belongs in
the Department Of Justice. It's work has
been mainly inquisitional, a search for
grounds upon which suit could be brought
against corporations for violation Of the
Sherman act and other antitrust legisla-
tlon; obstructive rather than constructive.
The Bureau OF Labor has Of late shown
activity in effort to adjust differences
between wage payers and wage earners.
The Census Bureau and the Bureau Of
Statistics live in an inundation of figures
and mpil1tiops of figures. Thess ~

A haven Of rest for the muckrakers and
tortured sociologists has at last been found.
They may shake the dust OF these States
from their feet and foregatber with the
kuskw gamutes. a tribe Of perfect men and
women that has been discovered somcw here
near the base of Mount Mckinley in the
wilds of Alaska by DR.. GEORGE Il. GORDON
of the University Of Pennsylvania. DR..
GORDON reports that vice docs not exist
among these isolated people and they do
not know crime. The proof Of this remark
able condition is said TO I've that they live
without laws and that although poly ga. ~ is
not forbidden by their priests the ,nvarying
domestic rule is to cleave to one wife. Thus
there is no family discord and no need of
divorce court. Tall and strong are the men
and com,ly as lilies the women. Says DR.
GORDON regretfully:
Their are only 800 Of them leh. J. is to he hoped
for their sake that they die out before the white
traders get them then they can die as clean aud
happy as they lived.
This paradise is not beyond the reach OF
perfect souls embittered by the imperfec-
tons of civilized white men. being situated
only 800 miles from the mouth of the X Kuskok-
vim River. One long drawn out sweet song
is life in Kuskw agamuteland. There the
square deal always reigns and there is moth
ing to reform. II is obvious that only the
good should go to the land OF the millennium
up near the Arctic Circle. but the name Of
the good among us is legion. There ought

But Just The same the woodman came

And lest the axe our arms might tax
We saved them UP by steam.

In a civil action for divorce based on an
allegation OF the defendants adultery it is
necessary only to establish the charge by
a fair preponderancc of evidence. In a GRIM
inai prosecution for the crime Of adultery
under the new statute IL Is necessary that the
guilt OF the defendant shall be established
beyond a reasonable doubt. II might well
happen that the preponderance OF evidence
which would be sufficient TO sustain a finding
Of adultery In a civil case would not satisfy
