FOR NON-PARTISANS.

Probably because so many men have heen to
college and have taken an elementary course in
logic, there is at present a strong partisan

The Idea seems TO be that because IT is noble 10

the up-op OF civic virtue to eschew all political
association with ones fellows Thus the i'm
partial man is identified with the non-partlsan.

which are the castle golf inks Many tons .of
flowers were used In the decoration of the tents in
which refreshments were served Ten special
trains brought the London guests and all the roads
leading to Windsor crowded with motor cars
during the afternoon
This the first royal garden party since that
of the late Queen Victoria in 1897 which became
known as the consolation party when delesa-
tions from the city bodies presented addresses TO
the Queen after her jubilee. Through a misunder-
standing OF the attendants, some OF the prominent
members OF Parliament and others were uncere-
moniously shut out of Buckingham Palace during
the jubilee presentation and were greatly hurt,
hence the Queen gave a garden party. TO which
she invited the injured members for the purpose OF
placating them. John Burns then now. a Labor
member from Battersea. and also president of
the Local Government Board, was present on that
occasion. and drew down himself the denuncia-
tions OF his socialist followers for trucking 10

ANOTHER ONE FROM EDISON.

A person doesn't want to say that
anything is impossible, these days.
If he does like as not he will hear OF
its accomplishment before the week
is gone. Thomas A. Edison is the
man who has succeeded in accom-
plishing more Of the impossibles
than any other man, living or dead.
What he now promises means more
to the world than anything else.
Simply and briefly it is this. taking
fertility from the air, by the aid Of
electricity. and putting il in the soil.
Just think what this would meanl
If farmer saw his corn was not do
ing as well as it should. all he would
need to do would be to start his
batteries to working, pumping nit
rogen from the air into the soil.
When Edison gave to the world his
talking machine, he did what every
other man but Edison said was inn
possible Now he talks of doing |
what seems no greater impossl-
billly. But, somehow, we cannot
believe that this latest of Edison's
would be the best thing for US, even
if it became possible. We would
make ground so rich the water we
would get would not be sufficient,
hence. without rain-making attach
ment. we do not believe we would
get the thing up, if in Edison's
place.
