hensive treatment of the various topics
is based on a wide reading of the best
literature on the subject in English,
German, French and Italian, and the
student has opportunity to profit by
this research work through the bibli-
ographies placed at the head of each
chapter, as well as by means of many
additional references in the foot-notes.
An Introductory chapter discussing the
nature, scope and methods of political
science is followed by chapters on the
nature and essential elements of the
state; on the various theories con-
corning the origin of the state; on the
forms of the state; on the forms of
government, including a discussion of
the elements of strength and weak
ness of each; on sovereignty, it's nature
it's essential characteristics, and its
abiding place in the state; on the
functions and sphere of the state, in
Guiding the various theories of state
activity; and on the organization of
the state, including chapters on the
executive, legislative and judicial de-
chapters on constitutions, their nature,
forms and development; on the distri-
button of the powers of government;
on the electorate; and on citizenship
and neutrality-suspicious. not treated.

stating his own conclusions the author
gives an impartial discussion of the

analyses and criticises them in the

more time by far for Sackett to re-
cover from his astonishment at this
medieval struggle in the opening of
the twentieth century. He didn't know
whether to be the more amused or
astonished. The scene may have been
absurd, but there was no time for
laughter. Jeanette gave Sackett an
imploring look. Selling a battleax, he
ran up to the combatants and began to
beat down their weapons. He was
not so furious as they, and this abb

vantage. Finally he secured position

all the turmoil of such changes there
Is danger that the extremist, the So
cialist, and even the anarchist will find
followers to the eventual great dam
age of our complex civilization. A
reaction from reforms is always to be
looked for unless the reformers are
guided by moderation, wisdom, a
strong desire for the general good,
and an insight as to the future.
Fortunately, as far as the democra-
cy is concerned, there are faithful
watchmen on the tower who tell us OF
the night. and keep US warned of the
dangers that encompass us. 1t needs
a reformer who Is also a statesman
to advise us in these days, and such
one is Governor Crothers of Mary
land, who never tires in welldoing.
He has cleaned up the state govern
ment of Maryland; and in addressing
the farmers and others at a state
fair, he gave this account of his stew
ardship:
81 believe that our government has
improved the standard Of citizenship.
The people hold to a more rigid &C
count the agents they appoint to trans
act the duties of the different offices.
The farmers have made more pro-
gress, and I believe the farming in
dustry will lead to greater profit now
than in past years, In the advance
ment of other industries agriculture
has not received what assistance it
should through organization.

are no tax dodgers among the farm

for the roads without increasing the

A Medieval Struggle-By F, A. Mitchell

The Loutous of st. Louis during the
winter of 19-, after a summer spent
in Switzerland, took a palace in Flor

pick up palace, that they could af-
ford to hire palace, is not so startling
as might at first appear. Time was

Republican ImbeCiIity,

acy expert, declares: ''An insane
world is looked forward to by mewith
certainty IN the not far distant future
The human race is degenerating." Nc
doubt the high protective tariff, with
It's accompanying high prices and the
resulting misery of the poor, is hav.
ing such a depressing effect upon
many that some weak intellects can
not bear the strain.
For some years there have been in,
disputable signs that many republican
politicians have been crazy The re
suit in Maine has so affected others
that their minds are partially unbal-
anced. Since Colonel Roosevelt's re-
turn from Africa, his friends have sad
~ noticed that he is apparently locoed
as they call it on the plains-and
has become more than ever an ego
list, which the alienists say is a sure
sign of craziness. The hallucination
of the colonel as to the decisions of
the supreme court is perhaps another
form of the same frenzy. There is
hardly a republican politician, whether
hardshell or insurgent, since my pol
icies'' have become a bone of conten-
lion who has not exhibited imbecility.
Thank goodness the democrats have
not had such strain put upon them!
Although they suffer like their repub-
lican brethren from the effects of high
prices, yet in democratic legislation
they see the star of hope already ris-
ing, and the prospect Of equal rights to
all and special privilege to none is
open to their gaze.
