eETTERMENT OF COUNTRY LIFE

IN connection with the inquiries Instituted by the President OF the
United States as to thu ways and the mean for tn betermen OF ouh
general might be made better, regardless Of whether that life be spent in
the country or in thickly populated cities. An excellent dea comes
from Cleveland, Ohio, where a number of progressive citizens n re
the isolation of the neighborhoods and general lack OF unity have propos-
ed a scheme for more frequent meetings of young and old who ar inter-
ested in the general Improvement of existing conditions.
To effect their purpose n the work of knitting the population into
a cohesive unit, the most thoughtful observers have suggested that
public school buildings in both rural districts and cities should become
ducation. Speaking n this subject Louis Post, editor OF he Public at
Chicago. says:
The segregation Of school work from the common life is OF the
serious evils of the system-or rather of its administration. No much
Roadway Is made, to be sure, merely by giving inocuous lectures now
and then in schoohouses. but wen this is and advance. When the
tercourse. for lectures or topics of general or ndghborly interest, and
for the discussion OF school district and school board affairs. the public
school system will take a very different and a much higher place in
the life Of the pOpe.
From the earliest times of American occupation southrons have cult
waited the idea Of public debates, oratory, and the commfnglng Of minds
that produce the websters, Clays, Marshals and Calhouns Of history.
In another sense this idea is much older in the New England States,
where the town meeting principle rachel its elimination at least two
generations ago. IS explained by Ralph Waldo Emerson in one of his
famous essays o government
No community a make a mistake by culivating public discussions
but there is a great evil to be guard ed against No meeting place of this
character should become the stamping ground Of fanatics, politicians or
agitators whose speeches would only destroy the public peace If such
meetings were to be made purify social and educational vast benefits
would result: but the moment these centers of discussion fall under the
control of trimmers and tmeservers they will become pest spots that
should be suppressed and forgotten
Few persons aside from those who have given careful attention to
social conditions are aware of the isolation that exists in many thickly
populated centers where neghbor does not know neighbor, and where
the rational purposes of social life are left to chance and the machina-
tons of designing politicians. TIL ere is no reason for such Indifference
and neglect of opportunity. If every school district o ever ward of
ed to meetings that discussed the sneral welfare, great good would e
suit.

UNREST IN INDIA.

The situation in India does not seem
to assume more peaceful aspect.
Tho government has decided upon en-
energetic measures for the suppression
of revolutionary organizations, but such
measures do not have the effect Of cs-
tablishing peace and contentment.
The discomfort in India is said to
DO widespread and is proved by fire.
quent acts of violence. A short time
ago King Edward tried to conciliatc the
malcontents by proclamation to the
princes. chiefs. and people of India, in
which he promised to give access to
posts of public authority and power to
capable natives. But this little crumb
from the rich mans table does not sat
isfy the people.
Ever since the victory OF the Japa-
nese over the Russians. the thoughtful
Asiatics have realized that Europeans
are not nvncible. In Indu the ma
tives have scnsed the anomaly of their
position as subjects of an alien race.

revolution Is among the possibilities OF
a not far distant future. The thought
of such a possibility cannot be pleasant
to the English people. in view OF the
sacrifices and humiliating experiences

~ BAD HABIT.

IN the larger cities of the country a
number Of people have formed the ha-
bit of going out to late suppers Not
satisfied with an evening at the thea
ter. they prolong the day till after mid
night and wind up with the consump-
ton of a quantity Of rich food and
stimulating drinks.
The habit is bad both physically and
morally, to say nothing of the econo-
mic waste 1t is impossible for a man
who is up late at night carousing to
rise fresh and vigorous in the morn-
ing. fit for q good days work Youth
may be able to stand this draft on the
physical resources for some time, but
the time OF settlement will come. and
usually with high interest The pro-
longation of the day with gluttony and
drunkenness means carly decrepltude
and the shortening of life. And it Is
just as bad in the case OF women as
men.
There ought to be n return to the
traditional habits of the generation
that knew nothing of habitual turning
of day into night and the consequent
loss in both physical and Intellectual
strength. The late supper habit has
become with some almost a vice. There
is need of reform and a return to the
simpler and more natural lie. l

IN VENEZUELA.

From the reports it looks as IL CAS-
tros term of office had been cut short
by q revolution, Tho presence of Dutch
war ships in Venezuelan waters, pick
ing up the country's vessels without a
declaration OF war seems to have pro-
volsed a hostile demonstration against
the president, who is absent FOR his
health.'
Those acquainted with the country
claim that there is a good class OF
citizens who are well educated and
know what a republican form OF gov
eminent is. They know their preroga-
tives as citizens. These. it Is said, have
for many years been opposed to the au-
tocratic rule of Castro. They have been
looking forward to his deposition, or
demise, as the beginning of better
era.
That they have not risen and taken
the government In their own hands
Castro has well fortified himself against
such an emergency. He has surrounded
himself with friends from among the
lower classes Of the people and he has
had in his employ well organized and
armed force of police and spies. When
Castro heard of a conspiracy, his chief
Of police would make two or three ar
rests. If the affair looked a little seri-t
Gus, Castro would expel the conspira-
tors, but II dangerous, they would be
given cell in one Of the fortresses,
which is said to be q dreadful fate IN
Venezuela.
1T is to be hoped that the country
will be benefited by the present crisis.
1t Is a large country. 1t contains no
less than 100000 square miles. 1t is
larger than France, Belgium, Holland
and Germany together. And yet it has
only two and a half million inhabitants
1T has valua BILE deposits OF gold, silver.
and copper. II has many natural re-
sources but few transportation facili-
ties IL the country had Il good gov
ernment and were attractive to settlers,
it would gradually attain a place among
the advanced nations Of the world. The
better class OF the Venezuelan people
are friendly to the United States, ana
would, 1t is thought, look upon inter-
Ncntion by this country as benefit
They would, perhaps, welcome United
States troops, as did the people of Porto
Rico. But there should be no interwc>i-
ton II not for the purpose OF maintain
ing the Monroe doctrine. But as to that
there is no immediate necessity.

Los Angeles Times.

Alas, how much truth there Is in
the words of the woman who the
other day told her sisters of their
sins toward their offspring. She warn
Cd them of the degeneracy of mind
and body they are working in their
own persons and OF the race of dcgen-
their offspring. Late hours, the mad
ambitions which kindle the
mind, the ardent beverages
which inname the blood, the cruel,
mean and envious passions engend-
cred in modern society, where reason
is east aside and all responsibility Is
forgotten. are making nervous wrecks
OF both fathers and mothers. Such
offspring as these selfish. self-indulg-
ent men and women consent to bring
into the world are abandoned to
hirelings who in turn have their own
pleasures to enjoy. their own passions
to crafty. Thus the slaughter of
the innocents goes on more cruelty
than when Herod's headsman Dispatch
ed the helpless at a blow So the
fathers chase money all hours of the
day; so the mothers chase pleasure
all the hours of the night; so both
cram their systems with too much
highly-spiccd food and clink the wine
glasses until The sun rises on nights
Of unwholesome revclry. And the
children know no tender Whisp-
CT from n mothers lips, are never
claspcd to her warm heart, have
scarcely a refining or even humanis-
Ing influence thrown around their
young lives.
