longest and most radical constit ution
In the nation, including such features
as prohibition, corporation books open
to public, truth to determine libel suits
and the initiative and referendum.
This constitution, adopted APRIL 10,
had been ratified at the polls by an
overwhelming majority. and two Of
the leaders in the constitutional con-
vention-T. P. Gore, who is totally
blind, and Robert L. Owen-were cho-
sen as the first Oklahoma members of
the United States senate.
: The closing session of the Fifty
ninth congress was remarkable chiefly
for the number Of things which it did
not do or at least which one branch
did for the other to undo. The more
important bills which became laws
were for the trainmen's sixteen hour
workday, for the service pension and
for the exclusion Of japanese laborers.
The salaries of senators and congress
men were raised. The session was
known as the first billion dollar ses-
sion, although the official figures for
the appropriations were 1920, 79S, 149.
The Sixteth congress, which came in
to being DEC. under the Cannon-Ald-
rich leadership, has started of with a
do-nothing-hastily policy.

Science, Religion,
Ethics and Education,

On NOV. at Paris Henry Farman
went Dumont one better by navigat-
ing heavier than air flying machine
so as to turn complete circle back to
his starting place. Count Zeppelin in
his great 42O foot aluminium airship,
capable Of carrying ten passengers,
late in October took party Of friends
on the record flight Of hours and 20
minutes, moving in all directions at
will and with an average speed of
thirty miles an hour. The American
city Of St. Louis was the scene Of the
second great international airship tour
nament, OCT. q to %, but it was the
German balloon Pommern, navigated
by Oscar Erbsloeh, which won the dis
lance race with voyage to the brink
of the Atlantic at Asbury Park, N. j.,
1913 miles. Lincoln Beachey of Omaha
won the dirigible race by sailing a two
mile circuit In 4 minutes and 80 Sec
onds. Wellman's airship was wrecked
in September in trial fight on Danes
island, and his polar journey was de-
ferred.
In mechanics the new and compel
ling wonder Of the year was the ap-
plication Of the gyroscope principle by
Louis Brennan In England to the op-
Grafton of model monorail system of
transportation. The British govern
ment took it up after the public dem
onstrat1on, MAY 8, and many now look
for an Industrial revolution from the
idea.
The bishop Of London came to assist
in laying the cornerstone Of the great
Episcopal cathedral at Washington
SEPT. % and to attend the triennial
convention at Richmond. This body
took the progressive step Of opening
all its pulpits to ministers of other
denominations. The march toward
church unity continued. ".
The Church Of Rome took decided
stand against all the more radical tend
encies of the time grouped under the
term modernism" with express pro-
hibition of all literature containing
ideas contrary to the dogmas, for
which purpose college Of censors is
to be established by the bishops.
The collapse Of the case Of the "next
friends" charging Mrs. Eddy with
mental incompetency, was hailed by
the Christian Science church as vim
dicat1on. @

case was conspiracy Of the mine
owners to crush the federation. The
publication Of the Roosevelt letter

pend mainly on the ability Of the state
to corroborate the Orchard confession.
Here opinions differed, but in the end
the jury voted "No" after considering a

Faulty Financierins
Hats Prosperity's Chariot.

Opinions differ about the causes of
the money panic and industrial de-
preston Of 1907, but no one disputes
the fact. There was breakdown in
the existing system Of finance. It hap
pened right after the attempted Heinze
copper corner, OCT. 16, when the ex-
posture Of stock gambling bankers gave
credit a shock that it hasn't got over
yet. Before that time the volume Of
business had been up to the prosperity
level. although there had been fear
full shrinkage Of stock "values"-most-
~ water-and several gamblers panics
had disturbed Wall street. Morgan,
Rockefeller and Uncle Sam came to
the rescue Of the big banks with cash.
Gold was imported to stop the gap
after the Knickerbocker Trust CON-
pany had gone under. Clearing house
certificates and labor checks were used
everywhere, and banks suspended cash
payments.
Railroads and all the big Industries
curtailed. Thousands were thrown
out Of work. Extensive strikes were
those Of the San Francisco iron and
street car men, New York dockmen
Minnesota miners, commercial telegra
pliers. Arbitration averted western
railroad general strike. The Manufac-
turers' association voted 100000 for
three successive years with which to
oppose the closed shop, and the Fed
GRAFTON Of Labor took up the gage of
battle. Atlantic ocean lines engaged in
rate war. Marconi began transat-
lantic wireless service OCT. II. The
new Cunarder Lusitania made record
voyage Of days 20 hours, OCT II.
The cost of living increased. Crops
were good, the total value being ST.

The Administrators
Notable Executive Acts.

After considerable hesitation and the
tentative acceptance Of the lowest bid,
made by W. J. Oliver, for the Panama
canal contract the president finally de-
cided last March to keep the whole un-
dertaking in government hands and
appointed Major Goethals Of the army
engineer corps to head the canal CON-
mission and take entire charge, both
Shonts and Stevens having resigned.
The president checked the California
legislature in its anti-Japanese course
by promising to bring about the exclu-
sion of Jap laborers by diplomatic
means and by congressional action.
Secretary Metcalf startled the coun-
try JULY by declaring that the en-
tire Atlantic fleet Of warships would
make the unprecedented mobilization
in Pacific waters, a statement which
was backed by the president and which
has now been borne out by the fact
Of the sailing Of the great armada IN
der the command of Admiral Evans
from Norfolk Dec 16.
In March the president gave official
impetus to the river deepening move
ment by appointing a waterways COM
mission, headed by Burton of Ohio
and later in November made his great
popular journey down the Mississippi
with dozen state governors to attend
the waterways convention at Memphis
A general shakeup In the Roosevelt
cabinet occurred in March, when Post
master General Cortelyou was trans
ferred to the treasury portfolio upon
the retirement Of Secretary Shaw,
George Won l.. Meyer succeeding Cor
telyou as postmaster general. The in
terror department vacancy created by
the retirement Of Hitchcock was filed
by advancing Commissioner Of Cor
porations Garfield, the corporations
post being filed by Herbert K. Smith.
Giving up the idea Of joint state
hood, the president signed NOV. 16

expression In the creation Of the $1O,-
600, 900 Sage Foundation, the express
purpose of which Mrs. Sage, the found
er, said was to be ''the improvement
of social conditions"
The cause Of universal peace for
which civic and church bodies through
out9the world worked with increasing
fervor was advanced chiefly through
the work of the second international
conference at The Hague, lasting from
JUNE rs to OCT. IS. While the efforts
to establish an International court of
justice and an agreement for obliga-
tory arbitration were unsuccessful in
this conference, over which M. Nell
doff presided, the principle OF ob1ga-
tory arbitration was affirmed, and only
a few of the smaller nations dissented
from the permanent court on the
ground Of its proposed membership.
BY large majority, including all the
great powers, the principle Of inviola-
bility of private property at sea, as
proposed by the American delegation,
headed by Choate and Porter, was es-
tablished. Restrictions were placed
upon the use of floating mines, the
bombardment Of undefended towns
was forbidden and measures adopt
ed for the protection Of noncombat-
ants, relief Of wounded and against
privateering The Porter resolution
forbidding collection Of debts by force
until after arbitration had been re-
fused or an award set at naught was
adopted unanimously.
After having started the year with
an additional gift Of 100000 to the
University Of Chicago, John D. Rookie
Teller, through the general education
board, broke all records Of educational
endowments by giving $50, 100000 to
be used chiefly for the benefit Of the
smaller colleges and first Of all for the
women's colleges. The result Of an
other great educational foundation
was seen in the dedication Of the Car
negie Technical schools at Pittsburg
APRIL ~, upon which Messrs. Carne-
gle and Rockefeller patted each other
on the back.
The campaign Of the New York
women IoI equdI pay Luz eQudl
work" was checked by Governor
Hughes veto Of the bill, which had
been passed over Mayor McClellan's
head. Chicago decided to admit adults
to the high schools. New York ruled
sectarian exercises from the schools.
Columbia joined the movement for
spelling reform. Swarthmore rejected
the 100000 Jeanes bequest rather
than accept the condition of abolishing
intercollegiate sports.

pline and repression in Morocco The
serious revolt Of the wine growers
came to a head in May under the lead
ership of NJ. Albert, with the resigna-
ton Of many city mayors and councils
In affected districts and the sympa-
thetic mutiny Of some Of the troops

ton to the virtual dictatorship Of Pre-
mier Blanco under King Carlos almost

November. PERSIA-On JAM Mu-
zaffar ed Din died and was succeeded

"a. The long standing rivalry between
Great Britain and Russia over their
spheres Of influence in Persia was set
tied by an agreement giving the south
ern section to the British and the
northern half to the Russians.
JAPAN.-The Japanese finished their
benevolent absorption" of Korea by
forcing the resignation Of the Korean
emperor In favor Of Crown Prince
Euiwha zee JULY II, who became the
mere puppet Of the Japanese regime.
The anti-American feeling in Japan
rose to great proportions last spring
over the anti-Japanese riots In San
Francisco and the segregation Of orr
entail pupils in the public schools Of
that city.
PHILIPPINES.-T first elections
under the American regime resulted in
a victory for the Nationalist, or indie
pendence, party, and the first assem-

granting full independence.

ference which began at Washington in
