ANOTHER VIEW OF INSURGENCY.

Gov. Folk of Missouri does not take
to the republican insurgents or regard
them as of any use to the democratic
party. Within a month he has voiced
the warning that the insurgents were
undermining the democratic party as
much as they were the republican
party. Gov. Folk has been on a trip
to the westward and observed that
democrats We're rushing to the insur-
gent fold in alarming numbers. He
said it was one of those old stampedes
such as have worked havoc with the
democracy in the past. He told the
democrats that there was nothing of
value for them to gain by enlisting in
the insurgent forces, because at best it
must be a spasmodic break in the po-
litical fog and that confusion would
face them when the fog cleared away
just as it has in the past when the
democrats We're fooled by politica:
schemers with new ideas of glory.
The fog is lifting"
A New Orleans paper endorses these
sentiments. and calls attention to the.
fact that the people VIII require 6
guaranty before they will turn over
the reins of government to the demo-
Gratis. It says the people will want to
be convinced that the democratic par
" is in earnest in calling for a re-
vision of the tariff that will really
benefit the consumers of the country.
They want to know if it is going to
stand squareiy and aggressiyety
against industrial monopoly and nom
mate candidates who are not mere
humbugs, but sincere advocates Of
social Justice.
The republicans know that to turn
over the government to the democrats
is TO abandon every policy and enter
prise that they hold dear, and this
is why they will not do it in Novern Der.

cipaI sources of the MerriInac river,
liz shown by measurements made by
the Locks and Canals company of Low
eli. Millions of spindles in the textile
cities along the Merrimac in Massa-
chusetts and New Hampshire are still
largely dependent on the water power
and the company has kept records of
the condition of. the lake and river fer
many years. On the locks and canals
scale the lake when at its greatest
height registers "A inches. At present
it shows but 10 "a inches, lower fig
ure than ever before recorded The
lack of water is attributed to the
severe drouths of 1908 and 1909. and
the small amount of snow last winter
in New Hampshire Officials of the
company who have visited Lake Win
nipesaukee state that the captains of
the lake steamers are discovering
rocks in their course of which they
had not previously suspected the ex-
istence and that many of the cottagers
are unable to reach their regular land

This indicates that the movement
for the preservation of the White
mountain forests was not begun, and
that it cannot be contaminated too
soon. It is necessary that attention
should be given to the science of mete-
orology and that everything should be
done to maintain the water power %

a BILE to prevent drouths, but he can

This is regarded as a nation of gum
chewers and gum-shoers and While
one is social and the other a politi-
cal ha bit, it is said to be questionable
by which class most money or energy
is expended. If the gum chewers are
not in evidence much as in the
past we are as d nation credited with
taking care of three billion chews a
year, on which six million human jaws
work $4,000 900 hours. and for which
$50. 600, 900 is expended; and some
genius has estimated that if the force
of these jaws would lift ten pounds
minute, the combined energy would
amount to a lift of 1900, 000. 000, 900
pounds, a force equal to Niagara Falls
or capable of building a road $50 miles
in an hour, which was the work Of
10000 men. So much for the waste
energy of the gum chewer. AS TO the
gum shoers-so much is not to be
said. They do not waste energy, but
lead ambitious politicians to waste
their capital This is a gumshoe year

Looking over a garden the charm
of its beauty does not blind me to the
fact that every garden has its disap-
pointing features, although they are
not visible and are seldom spoken of.
The person of experience in looking
over a garden is aware that the things
realized are its adornment, not the
things hoped for. The garden laid
out in squares, and diamonds, and
ovals and parailellograms. or in IA
series of box-bordfred geometric fig
ureS, with a fountain or sun-diaI in
the center. or with vineclad pergola
III its midst. or that has a parked cen
ter with seats in the shade, or ham,
mocks swinging under the trees, and

the taste and ability of man to so ar
range material objects as to make
them invite US to loaf and rest our
soul; but in these times of nature
worship the orderly disorder of the
fields is regarded as the finest ar
rangement that can be given to an
English garden While We appreciate
the art, expressiveness and scenic eff
fects of a Japanese garden We like
the assembly of plants which nearest
approach natures arrangement.
