ures would be applied. many thousand
Socialists gathered IN the morning at
the 600 local headquarters OF the vari-
Gus districts of the capital. and thence
proceeded In groups. singing revolu-
tionary songs, toward the eight halls in
the city where mass meetings had been
announced
From 10 o'clock In the morning the
entire police force had been on duty.
Two hundred men, with officers, were
hidden In each of the fire stations, and
large bodies were held In reserve at
the police stations while public build
ings were requisitioned also, where the
police forces were quartered to act In
any emergency.
In the gardens and outhouses of the
landtag, before which tho demonstra-
ton on Friday occurred, heavy guards
We're stationed. Street cars and other
vehicles were permitted to drive In
front of the building, but no group of
more than two pedestrians was allowed
to pass on any pretext. Chancellor Won
Buelow's palace on Wilhelmstrasse was
entirely cut off by cordons of police, as
violent manifestations against the
prince were feared, while the environs
OF tho imperial palace. with the square
in front, were closed to the public.
Squads of police, both on foot and
mounted. patrolled the central thor
oughfares.
SOCIALISTS DETERMINED.
The Socialists showed great determin-
alton In their attempts 10 hold process
sions, although the police made ener-
getic endeavors to prevent this. Long
before the hour of noon the time fixed
to begin the meetings. all the halls were
completely packed. and the police drew
up In force around the doors to hold
the crowds in check. Those who could
not get within the buildings were driv-
en- into the adjoining streets by the
police. Inside the halls the greatest en-
thusiasm prevailed, the excitement in
ceasing as the speakers denounced the
action OF the chancellor. whose name
was received with loud booing and hiss
ing, The speakers did not advise vio-
lence, but declared that II violence oc-
CURED, the responsibility would fall
upon the police and the privileged
classes, who refused the people their
rights.
Resolutions favoring universal suf-
frage and secret ballot were adopted
by reclamation. after which the audi
ences streamed into the streets. The
police Immediately attempted to dis
perse the throngs. which showed an evil
dent intention to march in procession
towards the palace square. In most
cases the PROFESSIONS were soon broken
up, the police displaying the utmost en-
ergy. Two formidable columns, how
ever, marched as far as Alexander
Platz, within a short distance of the
emperor's palace, where the police
charged them, iniicting many injuries.
Eventually they succeeded with the
greatest difficulty In scattering the
who retired hooting and
cheering ironically towards Inter den
Linden. Thousands of spectators al
ready had gathered there from curiosity

WILL MAKE DEMOCRATS THINK.
Mixed Advice That Is Sent to the
East from Denver.

Advice that comes from Denver
with the weight of expert authority
conveys mixed information to the
Democrats who have been cherishing
expectations OF a high time at the
Democratic national convention. Two
former Pennsylvania Democrats now
occupying official places in that city
| send this cogent warning:
Delegates should remember that
the city is mile up in the air-that
is, $3.50 feet above the sea level;
that they should not chase the car,
should not become excited or be un-
duly active, and that two drinks OF
whisky will light them up as much
as nine in another atmosphere. In
other words. this high altitude con-
tributes to quick heart action-a
pumping heart, as it is called-and
Denver's rarefied atmosphere demands
on the part of aliens conservative
movements, little or no eXhilaration,
wholesomely quiet thought and ac-
ton. and especially the minimum of
stimulants, alcoholic and nicotine"
AS TO the most salient point in this
advice it may be written down as
good or bad, according to individual
views. Some appalling reports are
abroad as to the scale of charges
that is likely to prevail at Denver
hotels. But if two drinks of whisky
in Denver will do the work of nine in
the more sluggish atmosphere Of New
York or Pittsburg the Democrats may
think that the cost of nominating
Bryan will be much reduced. But
what if the Denver saloonkeepers
should adopt the corporate principle
of value Of service" and charge as
much for two drinks as the nine
would cost on the lowlands?
But when Democratic authority pre-
scribes quiet thought and action
conservative movements and no eX-
hilaration' for Democratic national
convention it introduces the irrecon-
cilable. How could Bryan have ever
been nominated by the Grown of
thorns and cross OF gold speech
on that regime? True, he may not
need that hullabaloo to get the nomi-
nation this time. But quiet thought
over the nomination of a Democratic
candidate who has in the past achieved
the revolution of getting a Republican
senator elected from Kentucky is cal
culated TO produce chilliness in the
Democratic eXtremitics.-Pittsbu

States RIGHTS and Treaties.

Secretary Taft, in his address to the
Brooklyn Bar association, took a pos
tive stand on the question Of har-
monizing the powers OF the president
with the obligations of states to
abide by the treaties entered into by
the federal government. Until this
question of states rights is properly
adjusted il leaves a weak place in the
government. both as TO domestic gov
eminent and international relations.
1T puts our country, now world pow
er and entering into treaties with
every other government on earth"
says Mr.. Taft, lin the position OF
promising that subjects of other
countries shall be properly treated
and then of having no means Of carry
ing out this promise. or of Furnishing
those who violate il"
The United States is insistent that
its citizens shall be treated with due
consideration in all parts of the world
1t would have little respect for an
other republic or monarchy that would
enter into treaty obligations to give
such treatment. and then be unable
TO govern it's affairs relating to Amer
Scan citizens in some particular state
Jr province. The United States must
81 some way empower the president TO
enforce treaty obligations in every
state in the union. And when this
subject is placed before congress 1t
should have the support of every rep
resentative of every state. The ma
ton is bigger than the state. And the

MARKED EPOCH FOR THE FARM
Marsh Harvester Was tho First Tims
Saver in Agriculture.

Fifty years ago two young farmer
named Marsh were cutting grain near
DeKalb, III. They were too ;ntelligen,
too American-to be fond OF worn

Well" said the other. why can't
we fix platform OH the reaper, and
have the grain carried up to us?"
1t was brilliant idea and a new
one. Neither Of the young fellows had
ever seen a reaper factory; but they
were handy and selfreliant By tbs
next autumn they were in the field
with their new machine and as they
had expected, they bound the grain
twice as quickly as they had the year
before.
So was born the famous Marsh har.

it gave the farmer his first change

the harvester were compelled to bind
the grain as fast as it was cut. Thus
it introduced the factory system, one
might say, into the harvest field. For
the first time the Big Marsh made its
appearance on the farm.

American Foodstuffs Abroad.

What we want" said the president
of the American Reciprocal Tariff
league, lis such commercial relations
as will enable western farmers to sup
ply food products to the millions OF
Europe. Both Germany and France
are ready to do business with us upon
this proposition. Well, are not west
ern farmers already supplying food
products to the millions of Europe?
1t must he that they are, for our sur
plus food products are finding for
eign markets at the rate Of nearly
$500, 100000 Il year. Most Of them
go to Europe Certainly none of the
surplus stays at home. There is no
glut in the American market. France
and Germany are already taking their
share. They might take more, per-
haps, if their own food producers did
not insist upon first marketing at
home at high prices all that they have
to sell. 1t is doubtful that the agra.
rian or land owning interests Of Ger
many and France will consent to have
the tariff bars removed even though
German and French manufacturers
should thereby be enabled to swamp
the American market with their
products. The plea for larger markets
for American foodstuffs is mostly a
fraud and snare.

woods ag'in. amt fitted by natur fer
dressed-up folks
No opposition to this unseemly out
come was made by Uncle Jud or Aunt
Mandy. They knew, or hoped, the
leaven of bygone memories and asso-
citation would change the hermit-like
impulse of Old Cy, and all in good time
better ending of his life would seem
possible to him. To argue it now was
apparently useless. A man so set in
his ideas as to remain a homeless
wanderer for almost lifetime, was
not to be changed in month, or per-
haps in year.
Neither did Old Cy seem in hurry
to visit Christmas Cove.
II don't look nat'ral or feel nat'ral

Mandy one day, "an' while / want to

how hard it was for Old Cy TO fit him
self into civilized life once more.

Christmas Cove in a few days, how
ever, and how he met and renewed ac-
quaintance with his old-time sweet

CHAPTER XxxVi.

With September came supreme
event in the lives of Chip and Ray,
when Mr.. and Mrs. Frisbie, Aunt Com
fort, Miss Phinney and Hannah, Uncle
Jud and Aunt Mandy, and Old Cy, all
gathered in Aunt Abby's quaint par
lor to see her aged pastor join their
hands and lives. Then came the kisses,
the congratulations the rice, and old
shoe throwing, and then solitude and
tears for Aunt Abby. All the wedding
guests except Old Cy hied themselves
away with the new pair, and he left
for BayDort.
And thus closes the history Of Chip
Mcguire, waif of the wilderness and
slave of Tins Place.

Two days later Old Cy returned.
No one was in the house when he
knocked at Aunt Abby's door, and
then, led perhaps by the invisible
chord that spanned 10 years, he slowly
strolled up the path beside the old
mill pond, which he and she had often
followed in the Old old days.
His heart had led him Alright, for

deserved reputation as an after-dinner
wit of late, despite his dignity on ordi-

DANGER of Bryanisnn.

Republican campaign provision can
not safely stop with the Democratic
party's defined strength or with a
count of the states which Mr.. Bryan
did not carry in his two presidential
efforts. This year there is q difference
which weakens the force of old figur-
ing All the discontinued elements,
all the loosely attached elements and
all the Republican stay-at-home ele-
ments are to be considered as possible
Democrats. 1t is not TO be forgotten that
each of the Bryan propositions, how
ever chimerical it may be in the judg-
ment of the we'll informed, has a GER
tain attraction for voting masses, and
has been advanced with not wholly
illusioned view to that practical, if
temporary, political effect Popular
