Beveridge Speaks.
After the business of the committee
had been finished Senator Beveridge
was called, and he made rousing
speech. in which he declared that the
paramount aim of the party should be
to work for the welfare of the people,
and he suggested that the district
chairmen in the various districts keep
In close touch with the people of their
districts that 1t would appear that
tn people themselves are running the
campaign. He predicted republican
victory by a majority that will be no.
ticeable throughout the nation.
Senator Beveridge congratulated the
committeeman for having been selected
in series of district conventions, the
harmony of which was unprecedent he
believed in this or any other state.

well for us in November. 1 congratu-

party would be at least tremendously
handicapped for the next four. cam

The senator then explained that the
state is to be redistricted for legislative
purposes. and that with the democrats
in power and with the present manage
ment of the democratic party this
would mean that a republican senator
would not be seen in Washington for
the next ten years. He mentioned also
that the state would be redistricted
for congressional purposes and that it
could be redistricted so that republican
congressman would be scarce.

IS THE HOME A FAILURE?
Enjoy tho Company. Of
Family Life.

The failure OF the home in this
busy, driving country, is one of the
startling counts in the Indictment
brought against the American women
In current publication by Rev
Dwight Hills. Nor does he let the
American mon escape. He pictures
the well-to-do Englishman deliberate'
ly breakfasting at home and strolling
to his business at ten o'clock. and
home again In time for afternoon tea.
The American 1s too busy for family
life. A hasty breakfast behind tho
morning paper, 4 rush all day, up to
the very edge Of the evening dinner,
leave him too weary and exhausted
to enter or create another atmos-
phere." Husband and wife 60 differ
ent ways. The wife, heart-hungry,
absorbs herself with charity, club-lifs
or society. II she is weak and meets
temptation, a tragedy ensues." The
average American woman clings, long
after she has ceased to receive en-
couragement In 80 doing, to the old
Ideal she saw In the husband, hoping
that some day he will cease giving her
things and give himself" Even the
Frenchman Is q better family man;
and every traveller testifles to the
keen relish with which. in public
pleasures, the French husband shares
the simplest amusements of his fam
lily. 1t is the families OF almost any
other blood than American, those OF
the Hebrews best Of all, who show us
what holidays at home may be-. We
are neglecting. 1t seems, tho best
saving influence Of all, in what Glad
stone called this fallen and disor-
dered world" to mitigate the prinot-
pie Of personal selfishness" and sus.

The Lance In War.

The lance as a cavalry weapon he's
Justified its existence, military experts
agree. In the South African and the
Russo-Japanese war. In spite Of those
who decried the arm as old-fashioned
and cumbersome. The German mill.
tary authorities still believe In shock
tactics and the cavalry charge, and
under these circumstances the lance
in tho Prussian Uhlan's hands remains
formidable weapon.
Experience, however, has also
shown that the lance point often
makes too deep wounds for the shaft
to be withdrawn quickly, and so the
lancer runs the risk OF having II
wrenched from his grasp In the
charge. The cavalry regiments sta.
toned at Brunswick and strasbure
are experimenting with a new kind Of
lance which carries a ball below the
base Of the lancehead preventing It
from penetrating further. It is said
that the new arm is Just as effective
in disabling an enemy and is free from
other disadvantages. It will probably
be adopted by all the German lancer
regiments.
