Freeman's name is linked with that

congress, and whose maiden speech in
the house was on the subject of
Mans Right to the Soil" That speech
was made in 1852, but it was not until
ten years later that he was able to see
his measure, the homestead law. re-
corded in the statute books.
Freeman at that time was a young
soldier. detailed to perform a secret
mission at Brownville, Neb, where the
first United States land Office was

- NE of the saddest things in life.
M perhaps, is the sight of an
III American tourist in West
Minister abbey. Unconvention-
al as he may be in a thousand
things, the American is the most con-
Ventional of mortals in his attitude to-
ward the historic show places OF Eu-
rope. There is but one proper way to
view a monument. one proper opinion
10 express in regard to ii. This is de-
termined by tradition and, in the case
of the abbey the Washington Irving
tradition is the one that must be re-
garded A hundred years ago Irving
established residence within the
wall of the old minister and pro
ceeded to write some very charming,
albeit a little fiorid. prose regarding
its architecture and its memorials.
His expressed feeling toward II was
one OF reverence and awe and melan
choly, of admiration and respect. Now,
this was both correct and natural In
Irving's time, but that was before the
day when visitors crowded the aisles
like cattle at the herding. when the
walls were placarded with instructions
and warnings, even as the motor
busses that pass the door are placard-
ed with advertisements, and before
youthful vergers lined up the curious
in companies and collected a sixpence
apiece for personally conducting them
through the royal chapels. The at
mosphere today. indeed. is not conduc-
i've to meditation and reverential &C.
stasy; the abbey is as much a show
place as the Albert Memorial or Earls
Court. and the sad sight referred to
above is that Of the hurried, bustling
tourists OF the twentieth century try
ing to adapt themselves TO the tradi-
tional pose of reverence and awe ere
