saw the dungeons in this tower wh ere they used to keep the prisoners who put soap in the kings soup, or woke his 'nibs' too early. On some of the doors which were made of wood are the finger nall prints of prisoners who tried to scratch out four or five cen turies back. It made me weak about the knees when I saw all of this. The instruments of torture which they used in those days were positively hellish. These English have lot to answer for when the big thing comes off.

 You ought to have seen the way the Americans cut up over here when we heard the news that Dr. Cook had reached the north pole. 1t was a caution. Every American in town was yelling for Cook. All night the Yankees were drinking to his health and some of them actually cried-they were so happy. It was sight I will never forget and let me tell you I was again glad was an American. It was three beers for Cook all night long.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The Price of Iihertv.

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 When the Puritans landed on the shores of the new world, fleeing from oppression and interference with their rights and liberties, seeking a resting place where they could live and pursue happiness in their own way. untrammelled by bigotry and fanaticism, did they escape from these harrassing conditions and find that which was so eagerly sought after?
 Alasi no. They brought with them the bigot and the fanatic, and these worthies "got busy" at once and disseminated their germs through the leaven of the colony. The busy home-makers were too closely occupied with clearing forests and tilling fields to pay much attention to the subtle machinations of the fa- natical drones-a class ever-present, everywhere-and soon this simple folk found themselves enslaved by intolerable laws and regulations, in many respects worse than the conditions from which they had fled.
 When the colonies declared their nde- pendence and sacrificed life and property to establish it, was this independence won duQ tnelT tl6Illdl ITecOOlu 1IOHl uppTSS- sion assured when Great Britain with drew her invading armies from their ter ritory?
 Nol These things were only placed within their grasp, to be held so long as they would hold them, by exercising
 that eternal vigilance, which is the price of liberty"
 Just as soon as this vigilance began to relax, just so soon the tory and the fanatic and the bigot began to work on the quiet, to fool and enslave the masses, and take from them their individual rights and liberties. Gradually the descendants of those colonists have unthinkingly al lowed themselves to be dominated and fooled into almost total surrender of
 their liberties and rights (guaranteed under the national constitution), by this bigoted and fanatical element, so that our leaders are now saying that the constitution of the United States is out of date-does not mean anything Really, it seems to be a misfit, when compared to the conditions under which we are allowing ourselves to be governed under it.
 If the people of this or any other state are foolng themselves into the belief that their liberties and rights are se- cured forevermore, just because of Val ley Forge, Yorktown. etc, and that in- strument known as the constitution of the United States-or the constitution of their own state-woe be unto hem. For the tory, the fanatic, the traitor, are abroad in the land.
 And unless you exercise vigilance eter-
 nal your home will not be your castle and you will be a slave.
 | Do not allow these tories, bigots and l fanatics to bunko you into surrendering
 any more of your few remaining rights by mutiating your poor old constitution. 1 else you may bequeath to your children !, a legacy of slavery to be fought aloose ! from.
 1 Remember, "The price of liberty is eter-
 nal vigilance" Yours truly, w. F. WRYE. 1 Birmingham. October Il, 1909.
