STORY OF BURR IN LONDON
Having Little Money, He Invested Il
All In Food Lest He Should
Lose Il.

When Aaron Burr was an exile in
England he was In extreme poverty.
An extract from his diary indicates
how how "close to the cushion" he
was In the matter of finances and also
throws light on the cost Of living In
those days. Here is the extract:
Il find my appetite" he says, Gin
tho inverse ratio to my purse. and
now conceive why the poor eat SO
much when they can get it. Consid.
ering the state Of my finances, re-
solved today to lay out the whole in
stantly in necessities, lest some folly
or some beggar should rob me of q
shilling. Bought, viz, half pound
of beef. eightpence: q quarter Of q
pound of ham, sixpence; one pound
of brown sugar, eightpence; two
pounds of bread, eightpence; 10
pounds Of potatoes, fivepence; having
left elevenpence, treated myself to a
pot OF ale, eightpence; and now,
with threepence in my purse. have

Upon this supply of food he lived
for eight days, cooking his own meals.
After months of this life he finally sue

books and borrowing fom friends, In

DOES NOT LIKE BIG CAFES
Partisan Disapproves Of Dining With
aCroWd While Music Interrupts
His Table Talk.

Paris possesses no six-story restau-
rants with walls of marble and a.abas-
ter where the masses may eat and
watch their fellows eating in time to q
powerful orchestra. But then the
Partisan is not gregarious in his hab-
Its. He believes in the gayety that
comes from within, and not the va
riety supplied by the management.
Tho prospect of being able to have
his petite marmite. his sole dieppoise,
and his poulet cocotte in company
with 1899 other diners would not at
tract him in the least. He would dis
tinctly resent band Of sixty-five per-
formers, drowning with Wagner or Le-
har his witty table talk. Staggering
statistics of the numbers Of lunches
or dinners served daily at his restau-
rant instead Of swelling his manly
bosom with national pride, would
probably incite feeling OF distrust
as to the precise amount of care bes-
lowed In the kitchen on his own par
ticular dinner The gayety OF the
crowded eating palace he would not
understand.

independence Day.

First among the increasing number
of American holidays and special an
niversaries must always be rated In
dependence day. AS the birthday of
our republic, and the anniversary of
the day upon which the movement for
popular liberty received stimulus
which has nightly influenced all sub
sequent history, the Fourth OF July is
n day consecrated to the idea of self
government.
Methods OF observance differ with
succeeding generations. The present
generation is witnessing transition in
this respect which is much to be de-
sired. But the significance of indie
pendence day remains unchanged
through the changes of the hurrying
years. Its lesson is always the same,
and it sends The same inspiring mes
sage to the oppressed everywhere.
Nor is the spirit of Americanism es-
sentially changed, as some would have
US believe, since that July day in 1776,
when little band of stout-hearted
patriots, the worthy representatives OF
the thirteen colonies, met in Phila-
delphia and signed the immortal docu-
ment which became the cornerstone

The Wisconsin legislature that used
to adjourn early in April is still in
session and likely to be till in July.
1t has passed or yet before it enough
appropriation bills to sink common
wealth Though the legislature is
working under the pretense Of reform
it is making a record Of the highest
expenditures Though it has shouted
from the cutters and the housetops
that the people should rule it has tax
en- more power out of the voters and
put it into the hands of commissions
than any legislature in the history Of
the state. In every move of this kind
the people are not only robbed Of part
Of their franchise but they are com
PEELED TO pay their money TO some one
else to exercise right OF which the
people have been guaranteed free
use, the sole object being to increase
the army Of political workers paid by
the state. The True Republican has
been almost alone in holding all along
that the so-called reform did not start
from the right foundation and was not
inspired by able and honest leader
ship. In nearly every instance the
attempts al reform have resulted
directly opposite from what was in
tended; they have accelerated the evils
instead of lessening them. The mort
gage does not now have to come out
with the woodchuck to look for its
shadow. II does not even have TO hide
from the assessor, although the first
cry OF the reiormers was for equal
taxation. The next cry, and the loud.
est Of all, was for law that would
give the poor man an equal chance in
getting nominations. Gods patient
poor" were going TO be represented
and out Of the swim and out OF the
wash comes the price Of about 1925, OOC
for senatorship. The reform has added
bleeding processes whereby a person
is filched from at every turn.
This bleeding is the only part Of tn,
reform that is turning out AS the re
formers hoped 1t would. The othe
features turned out exactly opposite il
practice from what the theorist
thought they would. There are al
ways lot Of theorists who think the

Bjornson, the Norwegian poet. loved
animals. In lecture delivered by
him when abroad he said: AT home
In Norway we do not murder any OF
our song birds. Our children have FOR
years banded themselves together IN
clubs to protect the birds nests. But
what we gain by this for our fields.
gardens and woods Is as nothing In
comparison with what we gain for the
education 81 our children In weaving
them from cruelty and making them
the protectors Of the little birds. 1t
teaches them to control their feelings
and awakens enthusiasm for worthy
causes. Their love of destruction we
change to magnanimity. In Norway
It is the school that teaches children
their duty to song birds and in the
schools they form their societies for
bird protection" From tho Animals

Worst Form Of Ignorance.

Ignorance Is In its most acute form
when allied with vulgarity and rude
ness But there are SO many branches
spreading from this large tree that
it would be quite difilcult task to d.
vide them into specific sections. The
advantages arising from its growth
are so Insignificant as compared with
those of the tree Of knowledge that
no man dare without impunity offer
many words of praise in It's favor.
There Is a sort Of ignorance that can
be excused; 1t is that which exalts
itself in silence. Like every other
condition and quality, that takes It's
place in natural order. 1t will receive
it's share Of liberation when kept
within the narrow bounds Of the zone
peculiarly Its own.-Exchange.

There is an epidemic CT suicide in

dition existed year ago. tits strange

The La Toilette Boom.

"The La Toilette boom does not APP
near formidable. The Wisconsin sen.
ator is man of ideas, of courage and
of experience in politics, but his
following is comparatively small Sc
far, he is the favorite of but few when
the republican hosts are considered.
Men may admire fighting man with
out Offering their swords to his cause.
They may look with interest upon
what he is doing without wishing him
success.
'There is no warrant for the assump-
ton that Mr.. La Toilette is the leader
of the republicans who are classed as
insurgents, and that all Of them are
supporters Of his presidential aspira-
tions. Only portion OF them are
booming him for Mr.. Taft's place.
Some are looking to Mr.. Cummins,
and some to Mr.. Taft himself. The
La Folle se insurgents are bitter
against the president. But there are
insurgents who while regretting some
of his acts are yet the presidents
friends, and will work for his renomi-
nation.
"But if every insurgent in the house
and every one in the senate were a La
Toilette man, the Wisconsin senator
would still be minority leader. The
regulars are overwhelmingly in the
majority in both sides.
"And this being true of the situation
today, whence is to come in the next
twelve months the strength necessary
to make Mr.. Il Toilette the repub-
lican standard bearer next year? From
New England? He has no power
there, and is not in the way of acquir-
ing any. From New York, New Jer-
sey or Pennsylvania? 1t would be as
wise to look for anowbals in hades
From the south? There is no field in
that quarter for a La Toilette propa-
ganda. From the middle states or the
far west? Nothing doing.
"Mr. La Follette's strength, there
fore, seems certain to remain limited
so far as his presidential hopes go.
And why not? If the republican party
needs as great change as the Wis
consln senator seems TO advocate, it
has lost its national usefulness. Even
he could not hope to win as its candi-
date next year. The cal! will be for n
new deal by the opposite party. II
Mr.. Taft and his friends are out OF
touch with the times, and unable or
unwilling to give the people what they
should have in the way of legislation,
then the Job is for the democrats.
"Tn other words, the tail next year
will not wag the republican dog. If
not now apparent,
should arise TO make the denomination
of Mr.. Taft inadvisable, the party will
not turn to Mr.. La Toilette, but TO
some man less radical than he. 1t
could not hope for success in a contest
bidding on radical platform against
The democracy. If the country wants
thorough reversal of things, or an
advance at much more rapid pace
than the republicans have been setting,
it will call Mr., Bryan or some dem
ocrat of his school to office, and bid
him do his best. The La Toilette
boom is snowy, but not substantial"

Abraham Gonzales, the new Nader
list Governor of chihuahua, publishes a
statement Of the policy OF the new
Mexican government concerning con-
cessions to Americans, in which be
says;
"All Americans who grieved at the
downfall of the Diaz Administration
will find that their grief was well
founded. We do not intend to take
away the riches of any foreigner who
legally holds them, but we realize that
under the Diaz system the granting Of
concessions with their ruinous pay
ments of large sums Of money to Next
can politicians was virtual selling
out OF Mexico. For years Mexico has
been exploited 10y foreigners until the
great body OF the people have nothing.
We were on the verge OF becoming
a nation of paupers. Now all special
privileges shall cease If we can accom-
plish it. We hope to maintain the
friendliest relations with Americans,
and we shall invite all foreign capital
to come in; but there will be no more
selling out Of the country by piecemeal.
We will invite competition, not mon
opolv. II American capital wishes TO
come here it must be prepared to com
pete with Mexican capital, No exclu.
sive privileges will be given foreign
ers."
1t is time for Mexico to wake up and
apparently she is waking up.
