days Eagle, 1t clearly aligns him with
the insurgent republicans, between
whom and the progressive democrats
there are many points in common, so
many that it is evident that, in almost
every particular, both are seeking the
same ends. On the other hand, the re-
dictionary democrats and the standpat
republicans are largely in sympathy
with each other.
1t does not require the ken of a
prophet to foresee in this condition a
split in both the great parties and a
Irealignment for the national contest
of 1912. OF course, it is too early yet
to foresee just how the lines will be
drawn. but it should surprise no one
If Roosevelt and Bryan are seen work
ing together. A careful reading of the
former presidents platform and a
comparison with Mr.. Bryan's utter
ances for the last sixteen years will
show that Mr.. Roosevelt has adopted
most of Mr.. Bryan's principles.
Mr. Bryan's failure to secure the
confidence of the people is because he
keeps too far in advance of public
opinion. Even now the initiative the
referendum and the recall, to which
he is devoting most of his efforts, are
regarded by many as TOO radical, but
Mr.. Roosevelts seventeenth plank
shows that he is not very far behind
on this part of the ground.
Probably the only one of the eight
cen planks enunciated in Mr. Roose-
velt's platform to which Mr.. Bryan
will seriously object is the tenth, and
it is almost sure that the great body
of the progressive republicans will
sustain the commoner's position.
The method of revising the tariff
suggested in Mr.. Roosevelt's seventh
plank may also cause disagreement,
but where the object to be accom-
plished is the same it ought to be easy
for them to come to an understanding.

ENCOMIUM ON TEXAS.

The Eagle has received postal
card from Mrs. NJ. w. Sims, mailed
at Chautauqua, y. Y, calling atten-
ton to an article on Texas in an Ohio
publication, for copy of which The
Eagle is also indebted to Mrs. Sims.
The article follows:
The Lone Star state rises high in
the observation of nations The big
gest in size, the most varied in pro-
ductiveness and an empire of contra
dictions.
Texas is a state of treeless plains;
it is also state of magnificent forests
of pine, mesquite, oak, pecan, walnut
and ebony. The state where you can
battle every day in the year in the
Gulf of Mexico and where you can
freeze in the Panhandle.
1T is state for every man and
every taste You can raise oranges at
Brownsville or dig for minerals at Ell
Paso.
They have land for all who will
come, and yet not an acre of govern.
ment land. They have land that las
raised corn since the year 1893, and
land that is cultivated for the first
time this year
"They have the biggest state, with
almost the lowest rate of taxation
They have the most tomatoes and
the fewest eanneries; the most cattle
and The least milk and butter
They raise more hogs than any
other state in the Union, and still they
import most of their pork.
They can give visitor Christ
mas dinner with twenty-four varieties
of fresh vegetables, and strawberries
for dessert"

Mr.. Bryan calls on Mr.. Roosevelt to
go TO the rescue of Senator La Fol-

life in Wisconsin. He, says; Mr.
Roosevelt has here an Opportunity to
put his insurgency into practical use,
1t is said he does not like La Toilette
personally. That, however, is of small
moment at this time when the special
interests in the republican party are
trying to defeat the Wisconsin senator.
La Toilette has been true to the pub.

thing democrats would have him do,
but he has made a determined, faith
full fight according to his convictions,
and he is entitled 10 the cordial sup

the masses rather than upon the side

For all of us must look like sylphs

Nothing succeeds for this purpose,

The gown may open in this manner,
so that there Is row of fabric-cover-
ed or pearl buttons or of braid frogs
all down the front, caught at the waist
by loose girdle. Many of the new
skirts also open in the front, seem
ing nothing but wide ob'ongs of dress

Then there Is the tunic effect. A

below the knees will make one look

Moreover. simple defining embroid-
cry will do n great deal; and there is

to the plain fabric, always succeeds
in its effects. especially when the
whole skirt Is vertically plated in
wide folds and the appliqued band
reaches entirely to the low-cut neck.
The important thing to remember is
not to undo the effect, laboriously
gained. of the straight front line by
wide frills or tucks elsewhere in the
gown. Let everything be subdued to
this one feature, SO that the idea Of
length is accentuated.

The editor of the Whirligig Maga-

short pipe. He heard a sound in the
street below. The sound stopped in
front of the Office building, and the ed
itor craned his neck out of the win
dow to see where the sound came from.
1t came from a motor car. In the
car was large, handsome hat, appar-
emily covering medium-sized, hand
some woman, who looked familiar.
Could 1t be possible, he thought, that
she was coming here?
Binks, his assistant, was in the out

"Binks, you know Van Olsen, the

interest in the Whirligig?"
Sure. He was in here the other

"Yes. l knew her by her pictures

"Well, she is here again. She is

A couple Of hours later Belton, get

THE EVENING STAR.

Just above yon sandy bar,
AS the day grows fainter and dim
mer,
Lonely and lovely, single star
Lights the air with a dusky glimmer
Into the ocean faint and far
Falls the trail of it's golden splendor
And the CLEAN of that single star
Is ever refulgent, soft, and tender.
Chrysaor rising out of the sea,
showed thus glorious and thus emu
lous,
Leaving the arms of Callirrhoe,
Forever tender, soft and tremulous.
Thus Ger the ocean faint and far
Trained the CLEAN of his falchion
brightly;
Is 1t God, or is it star
That entrancer, gaze on nightly!
