 Prince Bismarck once told a story of the battlefield of Koeniggartz. The old emperor, then king of Prussia, had exposed himself and his staff to the enemy's fire in a very reckless fashion and would not hear of retreating to a safe distance. At last Prince Bismarck rode up to him, saying: "As a respon- sible minister, must insist upon your majesty's retreat to a safe distance. If your majesty were to be killed the victory would be of no use to us." The king saw the force of this and slowly retreated, but in his zeal returned again and again to the front. When I noticed it,' Prince Bismarck went on "I only rose in my saddle and looked at him. He understood it perfectly and called out angrily: Yes, am com ing But he did not get on fast enough, and at last rode up close to | the king. took my foot out of the right | stirrup and secretly gave his horse an enegetic kick.

GLEE CLUB Off
ON 4 LONG TOUR

The Whitman College Glee clu
started this morning on their long trip
toward the Sound. his is the twelfth
annual tour of the club through the
northwest and from reports of their
work so far, it promises to be the
most successful trip yet undertaken.
Tonight the boys will sing in the audi
torium at North Yakima, from there
they go to Seattle, where they sing
under the auspices of the University
of Washington, in the big auditorium
at that place. On March 80 they are
scheduled for Bellingham ON the 31st
for Tacoma, and on April 1, for Ellens-
burg, where they give their last con-

one generation become. the academic
speech of the next. We are always
ready to admit this after a change has
been completed, but the purist in
speech always disputes it while the
change is going on.
An interesting case in point is the
rapid growth in what is considered
good English of a phrase confined for
many years to the mouths Of the
vulgar. The use of the accusative for
the nominative case after a verb is a
notorious fault of children and adults
of imperfect education. Parents and
teachers have to battle strenuously
against the Its me-" TITS him." ITS
her." of childish speech.
And you often catch adults careful
about other things, even such refine
ments as the use of shall and will or
the subjunctive mood, calmly taking
you into their confidence by making
some statement strictly Between you
and l." Theoretically these are alike
objectionable, but there has been a
growing disposition of the phrase ITS
me" to rise above the others from the
muck of vulgar speech to the ei,;hcrity
of literary writing.
We do not know how to explain this,
unless it be by the analogy Of the
French phrase, "C'est moi" That may
have grown up in precisely the same
way, although We believe that the moi
is called a second form of the nomi-
natice The same fiction will proba-
bly, be employed when it comes to be
received in the English grammars and
dictionaries.
In the meantime the phrase has been
making it's way in the best literature,
first cautiously in the speech of lr-
responsible characters and finally with
the authority of the writer himself.
We remember it distinctly in Kipling
and more vaguely in Stevenson.
Finally comes an English professor
of phililogy, named Jesperson, with
plea for full acceptance of the pharse
on the ground that Its T. has become
pedantic, while usage has made IT'S
me" a perfectly sound locution.

ENGLISH JOINING WITH
YANKEES IN ANTARCTIC
British Welcome American Success
but Frown Upon Presum ptouus
German Lieutenant.

LONDON, March 2S-Britishers
welcomed the prospect of an Anglo
American race to the south pole. But
they do not show any enthusiasm ov-
er the German plan to join in the
Antarctic dash. More than that, they
accuse the Germans of bad Polar
manners.
They point out that the American
expedition has it's own base and the
Britishers have another but for the
German Lieutenant Fl elmer to use
either MacMurdo sound or Weddel1
sea instead of the old German VIII
helm Land, means that he intends to
proceed on the established tracks of
his rivals to some extent.
Every expedition on it's own route, y
is the motto Of the British critics.
Anyway, success for the Americans
would be welcomed in a sportsman
like way, but Anglo German feeling
is not such that victory for Lieu
tenant Filchner could be app,auded
with much heartiness.

POLITICAL CORRUPTION in
ENGLAND.

In comparing political conditions in
the United States and Great Britain
the usual practice has been to draw
an unflattering picture of election
methods in this country British OBJ
servers of the recent campaign over
there have another story to tell. That
the London press on both sides was
so violently partisan as to color and
suppress news, that free speech was
often impossible, that meetings were
packed and that rough house tactics
were constantly emp Dyed, was ac-
cepted as a matter of course. In adj
dition, however, charges of bribery
and intimidation and the dealing out
of free beer in unlimited quantities
have been common. Especially no.
ticeable was the lavish use of money
in electioneering.
Contrary to the universal rule in
this country, the saloons remained
open on election day in England
Where the great brewing interests
were so directly interested in defeating
the government as they were this
year, free beer was sure to be a pop
ular argument. The protectionist for
ces for some years have commanded
immense resources. Numbers of or
CARNATIONS formed for political pur-
poses have provided means of evading
the corrupt practices act. Supplied
with large funds for carrying on their
work, they were not compel ed by
law to account for their receipts or
disbursements. AT the same time they
were free to do electioneering work
for candidates on a scale which they
could not legally pay for in person

Members of the British house of
lords are not at all anxious to reform
themselves, especially in the matter
of interference with hereditary privf-
leges. They are entirely satisfied with
the existing system, and they think II

pire ought to be. This is somewhat
on the reasoning of the ostrich that If

PHILOSOPHY AND LIFE.

To what extent the leaders or
thought in the world contribute to the
happiness of mankind, has long been
a mooted question. There are many
who doubt that with the great adj
vances in science, invention and logic
happiness has increased proportionate-
ly. The greatest epoch making books,
such as those of Darwin and Spencer,
were not very generally read in their
day, and the percentage of men and
women who have read those books to-
day is not SO large as is universally
believed.
Nevertheless, philosophy has spread

he reason for the spread of philoso-
! ply among the poorer classes is not
to be found in a growing tendency to
read the heavier" books. It is due to
the aptitude for epigralns, or epito-

men. What man or woman does no,
