 That brilliant lawyer orator and wit Thomas F. Marshall of Kentucky. in ar guing a case before court. made a re- mark which the judge considered impu- dent and he fined Marshall BIO for 'con- tempt of court" Marshall was little irritable, and repeated the offense; where upon the judge added BIO more to the fine Marshall was in his usual state of impe- curiosity, and, seeing jail staring him in the face, recovered his temper and with a quizzical look at the judge, said Will your honor please lend me $20 The judge burst out laughing, and said: MT Clerk, remit those fines against MT. Mar shall: the commonwealth of Kentucky can afford to lose $2O better than l can. '
 Now, that judge had great power over the liberties of his fellow citizens. A word from him could land a distinguished lawyer in jail. and that without the slightest semblance of a trial.

 In this contention they are manifestly right; and yet the question necessarily arises, how can it be avoided, if we are to have any civil government at all
 In order 10 ascertain and to execute jus i,,t l, ,io al,e n. compelled to put great power into the hands of somebody; and as we have no angels convenient, this power must be intrusted to men. This, of course, cannot be done without risk of miscarriage of justice, but the only alternative is an archy.
 Practical politics-that Is to say. real government, is the science of circum- stances and circumstances are constantly changing. A thing that was right and legal in 1909 may be wrong and illegal in 1910; and this simply and solely because of changed circumstances. The legislator is put into his place and kept there to watch and study ithese circumstances, and to adapt the laws of the state to the conditions whatever these may be.
 He cannot legislate, nay, he cannot be elected-uness the people are willing to trust him with a great deal of power Such, at least is the theory of our gov ernment, federal and state. But how does this scheme work in practice? How many thousand vote for man because he is "a good fellow" and that without the least thought of the question, 'Is he qual- flied to legislate wisely and iustly?" Un- der such conditions, who can wonder that we often elect men who are absolutely in- capable of making up an intelligent opin- ion upon the justice or the injustice of any measure that comes up, for considera- ton.
 Besides, it is notorious that "a vote" does not always represent an opinion it often represents a mere personal preju-

Those that neither suggest or outline clear, livable systems of morality, systems in which just living, charity. clean-mindedness. open minded ness, absolute integrity are held para mount and not made secondary to quib- bling over on-essentials, over methods and not results. cannot be safeguards and guides.
 In this age of splendid achievement, when the creator and the builder are coming into their due praise, and the saver of things that are finished and done Is no more the moulder of modern thought the examiners and critics, too. are arising side by side with the doers of things. Brave spirits like Marx and George, Shaw and James.

 It must ultimately come to pass that mankind will be capable of self help. self reliant In word and deed.

Washington or Lee for nobility of char acter.
 As for the statue of Lee in the national Valhalla, I made some emphatic remarks in criticism of the Virginia delegation in the two houses of Congress for not formally presenting them and demanding vote on their acceptance. I am now convinced that l was wrong and they right. Let the thing sleep a score of years more and there is nothing more certain than that the delegations from Congress will demand that both statues be accepted.
 Kansas is agitated over the question as to whether she shall send the statue of John Brown to be put beside that O. John Ingalls, in the national Valhalla By all means she should. Brown rep resents Kansas as distinctively as Lee does Virginia, or Calhoun South Caro- lina He Is to Kansas what Boone was to Kentucky, what Houston was to Tex as. whether we look on him as lunatic or monster, and he was both, Yet he vas no more fanatic than was Wendell Phillips. who would have sent to the slaughter million white men, women and children, given their roofs to the flames, their flesh to the vultures an I devastated their fields had that been the only way by which he could accomplish tne eIiiaHclpdtlon Ol one single blacl, slave.
 All of us Anglo -Saxons are come from robbers on land and pirates on sea. Drake was a pirate, who harried the Spanish main and made his fellowmen walk the plank" He was a cut-throat, vet hero He dealt more cruel blows to the 'Invincible Armada than any other captain of the nimbler English fleet: and who of us but would exult if he knew he was in remotest degree of the blood of Francis Drake? Jane Porter idealizes William Wallace. and would have made him Jean Val Jean if she had been endowed with the genius of Victor Hugo, but that same hero, Wallace. would na looked upon as cruel and remorse- less butcher If he were incarnate and worked the deeds in our century he did in his.
 I hold that the very aristocracy of his tory is the story of the traitor Hamp- den and Fairfax were traitors, so were Washington and Lee. If there ever was the man pictured to us as William Tel he was traitor, and so was William Wallace. William the Silent was trait. or, and so was Voltaire, and so was Rousseau. Treason Is as you look at 1t.

TEXT to avarice, envy is the basest
 M of vices, and I am sorry to see A numerous grand army posts guilty of it, for their protests against the statue of Robert E. Lee in the old hall of the House of Representatives is nothing else than an exhibition of malice, and when translated it means. I've couldn't match him. and that is all 1t means.
 In the horrible period of republican reconstruction of the beaten and pros- trate south, General Sheridan was satrap over Texas. One day he declared that if he owned hell and Texas he would sell Texas and live in hell, whereupon an unreconstructed Texas rebel printed his approval of what the general said. and closed with this morality: Damn a man who won't stand up for his own coun- try!'
 And if I were not too modest, too re- ligious and too polite. I would say Damn a state that will not stand up for it's own traitors!' Let Connecticut send Ben edict Arnold and Kansas John Brown to the national Valhalla. Then let the world decide between the southern traitors. Washington and Lee, and the northern traitors, Arnold and Brown.
 As for the Valhalla in the old hall of the House of Representatives, the best thing to do with 1t is to cart all the statues back whence they came. and thence many of them should be carted to the lime-kiln where they belong, for the monstrosity of the art they stand for. There are status there of men mo- body ever heard of 10 yards from where they lived. Of course that is an exag- geration, but say it for emphasis and to illustrate the truth of how lonely the small are in the presence of the great If every state had Washington and Lee to send 1t would be all right Thank God, my old state of Kentucky has a Jefferson Davis and an Abraham Lincoln and it will be disgraceful if she does not send both. It would be the orly contribution that could vie with that of her grand old mother Virginia, that sent Washington and Lee.
 If Lee was traitor in 1861. Washing ton was a traitor in 1776. If the state of Virginia worked treason in 1861, the colony of Virginia worked treason in 1776 And here are George Washington and Robert E. Lee, the two grandest figures. not only of our hemisphere, but of all profane history. Neither Alfred the Great hor William the Silent could vie with

sense of the word and were really sur
prised at the excellent record ma le
by most of the machines.
Mr.. Battey states that he roads We
