EYES THAT SEE.

II is gratifying to the citizen. who
takes an interest in other citizens,
to observe the inclination of High
school boys, who are not occupied
with special duties on Saturdays. TO
spend the day in the open country;
but lest, perchance,. they may be
missing some profitable experiences,
we wish to advise them that greater
accomplishments have been record
ed of men. who use their eyes. than
of those, who merely use their legs.
and the open country affords the
greatest opportunities for the use of
both.
Weston walked from coast to
coast, and in walking he passed
through great mountain ranges and
great plains, embracing attitudes
that contained thousands OF varie-
ties of fora and fauna. The fact
that he just walked is only an evi-
dence that in isolated instances the
product of a civilized age can per-
form creditably In a feat for which
savage man was more noted; but IL
is what he observes and under
stands that benefits a Weston and
his world. and II he learned nothing
about birds or beasts or fish or vege-
tation on his journey. he travelled
only as a horse travels, but not so
well.
Botany. biology. ornithology, and
= these and allied
sciences. can be studied profitably
only by observations in nature, and
the pedestrian, who goes forth
armed with camera, microscope and
field glasses, has a wonder world
around him from the moment he
steps outdoors. How many of the
boys ever laid on their backs in the
woods and watched through field
glasses a bird attending to her do
mestic duties overhead, or investi-
gated the economic and social life
of bee or ant? How many can
walk through the woods and recog-
nize as many friends and acqualnt-
ances among the trees and moss and
vines and flowers, as they would
walking down Broadway?
Walks, long walks. are wholly
good. There are too few people
nowadays, who use their legs
enough; but there are fewer still
who use their eyes and ears enough.

BRYAN AND HARMON.

Mr.. Bryan in The Commonei
criticizes Governor Harmon, of Ohio
because he did not insist on a cal
providing for the popular nomina'
tion of a Democratic candidate for
United States senator, to which Mr.
Harmon. with much delicacy and nc
little irony. replies that "Mr
Bryan's long absence from Ohio,
perhaps. disqualifies him for speak
ing with authority on the subject
There are other points of divergence
between Messrs. Bryan and Harmon
that will develop later, IL Mr.. Har-
mon and the state of Ohio are so
fortunate as to secure the reelection
of Mr.. Harmon.
Governor Harmon is of the old
school of Cleveland Democracy. a
prominent railroad attorney and
manager, and man, who would
appeal strongly to the business in
terests Of the country, as well as to
that reactionary element now to be
found in both parties. He is in no
sense representative. except in so
far as personal integrity and pa
triotism are concerned. of Organism.
The latter is a theorist and idealist.
a preacher of great principles,
man of uncommon influence for
good on his times, and a factor in
the ethical movement of the day.
who probably will not be given due
recognition by future Investigators.
Mr.. Bryan's following is unique In
this day. when the printed word
is more potent than the spoken. He
is the great Chautauquan. and he
inspires men to better impulses,
while he fails to convince them of
the practicabiiity of his views. He
has succeeded In holding his own
party back from the reactionary in
fiuences, while Roosevelt, whose per-
sonal following has been acquired
through his ability as a writer. and
not as a speaker, has forced the
majority party into the forward
movement. The result has been the
initiating of policies and legislation
that ten years ago would have been
considered radical. but today do not
half satisfy the demand of the pub
lie for a change.
Mr.. Bryan. who opposed Governor
Hughes's elevation to the supreme
bench. may be expected to oppose
Governor Harmon for the Demo-
cratic npmination for president. Mr.,

Bryan has all the suspicious of a
| plainsman regarding associations
Mr.. Hughes vetoed a two cent rate
bill, and no amount of explanation
could serve to convince Mr.. Bryan
that Hughes does not down deep in
his heart sympathize with the big
interests. He wants men of the
people. Things are either wholly
bad or wholly good to Mr.. Bryan;
he is the crusader, not the sympa-
thetic observer; a lover of truth
and beauty, a poor judge of men
and an impracticable idealist.
Cold. hard commonsense. coupled
with integrity and a lack of per-
sonal magnetism make up the sum
|of Governor Harmon's political as
|sets; but IL he ever has been affect
ed by the new ethical movement,
which exalts man above property, it
has not become an obsession with
him. Governor Harmon has moth
ing either socialistic or sociable
about him. He was elected in Ohio
principally by Republicans, who
were determined to show certain
people what they thought of the
way things we're being run, and IL
he is elected again. II will be be-
cause those certain people have not
yet been sufficiently shown. and be-
cause Harmon made good in his
prediction statements that he in
tended sending some Ohio politi-
clans to the penitentiary.
II the national Democratic party
expects to find in Harmon a popu-
lar idol. who will sway men out of
their senses by the sound of his
voice, they imagine a vain thing.
His speeches are the dreariest efforts
mortal man ever listened to. Yet,
he and the silver-tongued Bryan
stumped the state together in 1908.
and he carried the state by 10000
and Bryan lost it by 10000.
Much has been said about the
possibility OF Roosevelt leading a
third party out Of the west. but
there is a greater possibility of
bryan ldhlnB the luouIeent leduet-

tion on his record of railroad and
legislation. and the pro-

party under the leadership of Roose-

to nominate some man. pleasing to
the great financial interests.
In this respect no one would
prove more suitable than Harmon.
should he be reelected governor.
and this strength down east would
be supplemented with political pres
tige in the middle states. Then
might Mr.. Bryan raise the standard

to have one issued against the manag-

nay. Then the tour managers exclud-
