UGLY PORTENTS

1t seems to be clear enough, that
the purpose of Col. Roosevelt,
Pinchot, Garfield & Co. is to disrupt
both the old real political parties.
and to have in working form a new
national party in 1912, made up Of
the apostles and lay members Of
discomfort, and which they believe
will be strong enough to sweep the
country and make of Roosevelt a
little Allah, with a dozen or fifteen
supporters who will be looked upon
as his prophets. Their purpose
will be to put clamps upon the
supreme court;to fill congress with
a majority that will be subservient
to the presidents will; as. fast as
they can, from day to day, to keep
up with his desires; to centralize
the federal government by taking
all control of corporations from
the states-to work a peaceable
revolution which will in truth
change the original plan of the
republic entirely, and make the
head of it in everything but name
a dictator. But has it ever oc-
Cured to the average man that
there is not one of the whole COM
pany to whom he would entrust the
management of his private bust
ness, if The was contemplating
three months absence?
Fortunately the election is yet
two years away; but even that
act is disquieting, for if this
agitation is kept up, those who
have the power in New York City
may think it a good thing to do,
to distract peoples attention by
giving them q taste of two years
panic. They can bring one on in
q week if they please to, and when
they. day after day, hear the covert
threats against the money class
and sec the horde in every city
and hamlet carried away as by a
fetish by one stormy man, the most
natural thing for them to do
woul d be to begin to draw in their
resources to make sure of having
something left after the earth
quake, and the state of business in
the country at present is such that
it cannot stand much drawing in.
And when conservative people
who have been brought up to trust
to congress to move distractions
out Of their path, think of how the
past session of congress seemed
utterly unable to grasp the situa-
ton, or to comprehend the chief
causes of the unrest and ap-
prehension that is upon the country
they see but little to hope for in
that direction.
At the convention in st. Paul
the other day, ]. j. Hill uttered
more good sense in fifteen-minute
speech than all the Pinchot ad.
herents could have uttered in a
week, but his words seemed to fall
upon ears that had been hypnotized,
and great crowds listen to speeches
made up Of platitudes and covert
threats against the very founda-
tons Of our form of government,
and howl their delight, as though
what they were listening to was a
message from on High. Has the
country gone mad, or is it shaking
under the ministrations of a dis
tillation Of new kind of mental
laughing gas?
The question of what to do with
our ex-presidents Is an old one, but
the difficulty Of answering it has
never been half as complicated as
1t is today.
When q man has fever the
physician sometimes tells the

Browns Lack of Vanity.

Lycurgus Brown is absolutely de-
void of vanity. He acknowledges this
himself He shows it by the careless
ness of his attire. Brown does not go
in for the spick and span, neatly fit
ting garb of other men. A wide
brimmed black hat, low collar with
struggling necktie, baggy trousers
and long-tailed coat that flaps loose
ly about him is his idea of how
man should rise superior to conven-
ton.
Once in a while some one will OBJ
serve that Browns tie is loose, and
will excuse himself and seize the tie
and tighten the knot and jerk the long
end straight and make it look neat.
Does this please Brown? Perhaps.
But at the next opportunity he will
cautiously insert his fingers beneath
the knot and loosen the cravat until
it looks worse than it did before.
He allows his hair to fall in strag-
Cling locks over his head Sometimes
somebody will tell him his hair
should be combed, and once in a
while the barber will slick it down
for him. Brown will then slip into
some secluded spot and run his fin
gers through his hair until it is more
towsled than ever.
One day his wife had the temerity
to send all his old trousers to a tailor
and have them pressed. For two
weeks thereafter Brown turned to the
divorce column and read it gloomily.
When Brown has his picture taken
he usually rests his cheek on his hand
and looks up from under his brtws
No artificial poses for him. No sir
Lycurgus Brown is going to be natural
il it takes the hide.
Sometimes, though, there comes
lurking suspicion that there may be {
shadow of vanity in his total lack of
it.

Upstairs and down, and through the
hall
We heard the patter of his feet,
Now with his top, now with his bali.
Now chanting child songs soft and
sweet;
And sometimes he was laughing low,
Or turning, rapt and eager-eyed,
And speaking quickly. just as though
There were a playmate at his side.
Among the roses he would run
At MISUNDERSTANDING for the fair,
Long golden rays flung by the sun
There were no touching fingers there;
Yet he would call by name and name
And shout and leap and romp and
race
And gayly lose or win the game
With all joys cleaning in his face.
And when the dusk crcpt down the
hill
He looked all quantity out and far
To where the sky was calm and still
With its wide sweep of dark and
star,
And he would whisper little things
And seem to hear a faint reply
When we heard but the beating wings
OF some belated butterfly.
He had his playmate in each nook;
The shadows dancing on the wall,
The gurgling ripples of the brook
Were sprites that answered to his
call
And ever since he went away
We leave his books aud toys the
sasnS
AND wonder viii ti,s,y come and play
AS once in his daydreams they came.
And so we wonder, too, if he
Is playing somewhere near the
throne,
Contented as he used to be
In a play-world he rules alone,
Or If we, with our blinded eyes,
Saw not the playmates that he had
The children who make Paradise
A golden place, all good and glad.
