Russell. poverty is increasing. The rise in wages cannot begin to keep pace with the cost of living. The elaborate government housing scheme from which so much was expected has proved a dismal fiaseo. In the beginning the government built and rented beautiful houses at low rates. Then the people complained that the government retained the title to the property and there was no chance for a poor man to own his home, so the government arranged that the houses could be purchased at extra ordinarily cheap prices. but only by bona fide workingmen. That provis ion was evaded easily enough, and as a result the government simply went into the real estate business wholesale at loss while introduc- ing an element of competition un- fair to builders and dealers who were in the business to make a living. Other examples are cited by Mir. Russell to show that the poor are as badly off as ever and that the prom ises of the paternalistic government have not been redeemed. The slums in New Zealand and Austral ian cities are even more disgracefll Il than they were five years ago on the visit

POPULAR ELECTION OF SENATORS.

At last congress has passed the | resolution which paves the way for the election Of United States sena- tors by popular vote. This question has been constantly before congress for twenty years and while it is a distinct departure from the legisla- tive plan marked out by the framers of the American constitution it is departure which has been insisted
 upon with growing determination for these long years.
 When this resolution was ratified by two thirds of the state legisla- lures the constitutional amendment will have been put into force and effect and the old plan of electing senators by members of the state legislatures will be done away with and wouId-be senators will be com pelled to submit their claims to pop ular vote in the same manner as other office seekers.
 The proposed new system will en- tail on candidates for the senate the necessity of extending their cam paigns to the people instead of con fining it, as heretofore, to the legis- lature With the direct primary now in effect in most of the states the new plan promises to be a very expensive matter for the senatorial candidates of the future.
 That the proposed amendment will receive the approval of the required number of state legislatures is hard ly a doubt. as in recent years the determined opposition to the amend ment has only been found in the senate. While there are many that believe that it would have been bet ter to continue in the path marked by our fathers it is not likely that this opposition will be either active or effective.

 STOLEN FOR THE GOLD

NEW YORK. June tf.-Dr. Fred Selbert. dentist of No 135 Sher- man avenue. is anxiously looking for his first patient. who has dis appeared from his home near the Dyckman street station Of the Broad way subway
 The habits of this patient were not always Of the best He drank beer and even smoked cigarettes. but he had been with Dr. Selbert when the latter was studying den tistry in Germany. so many things were overlooked. The second patient of the doctor. Mrs. Selbert, is also much exercised at the loss of the first patient The first patient went out for a walk the other day and didn't come back.

ARIZONA FENCES.

The roads of Arizona disclose one most peculiar habit. They change their location so frequently that they may well be called nomadic. One day the track may be straight: the next, it runs into a new wire fence. The traveller must turn at right angles and skirt the fence for a mile or two until the newly inclosed pasture is circumvented. lE so dry and sparsely settled a country the coun- ties cannot afford to maintain many roads. Accordingly, roads just grow
 Y the man whose land they cross happens to want to fence in two or three hundred acres he roes so and says nothing. The first that the pub lie knows about 1t may be when au automobile, dashing along at night. suddenly runs into the wire and is smashed to pieces. Alter talk ing with a man who was on the back seat when a reckless driver was actually beheaded in this way. and who on another occasion was saveu from a similar fate only by the catching of the barbed wire on the rods of the windshield, l was glad that it was not our habit to take NAaAAtGo uy AAdEuE ldbL dt ulEULs lt seems strange 10 an easUerner that there should be no redress under such circUTRstances. but in Arizona man has T right to fence his land. and that ends the matter. The fences always irritated me. Not that : mind a fresh tear in my coat every time ! went through a fence to look at the potsherds of an ancient village, but l always wanted to cut the wire and take my horse through when I was on horseback. That will not do. however, even though one carries wire and pretends to mend the break. The fence in this country is a sacred institution. and to cut it IS grave offense. Why should it not be sacred? In many cases it is acfually worth more than the land which it surrounds Land is cheap, only s1 or g an acre in many places, while fences cost work and cash Ellsworth Huntington. in Harper's.

SOCIALISM
 AGAIN FAILS.

In view of the trend toward so- cialism which is SC noticeable in our political discussions and demands, and which is one of the things that must be tried out for it's advocates, like all other fanatics, refuse to accept facts and figures and logic, it is admissible to introduce the tes- timony of a distinguished socialist to show that when subjected to the test of practical operation it fails 10 accomplish any good for it's advo- cates or for the public
 The socialist in America in an swer to the charge of impracticabil- ity of his schemes, the impossibility of his Utopian plans. invariably cites Australia and New Zealand as coun- tries where their schemes were in practical operation and where a mod el paternal government existed and everybody prospered. Perhaps they imagine" says the Pittsburg Times Gazette, that in a topsy-turvy land where it is hot in December and freezing in August human nature un- dergoes some marvellous transforma- tions that would be impossible in northern clines."
 The disillusionment comes from Charles Edward Russell, one of the most distinguished and foremost ad- vocates of paternalism and social ism, wfio has just returned from his first visit after five years to Aus tralia and New Zealand. where he went to see the results of five years sf their sociaiistic ideas in practt cal operation, and he has come bscs with shattered ideals.

If it is true that the Mexican gov ernment has offered a reward Of fifty thousand dollars for the cap ture and delivery of Ricardo Flores Magon, the Los Angeles socialist leader, that gentleman's sojourn on American soil will probably be short. That is a lot of money to place on a mans head and the nearness of the habitat of Magon to the Pacific ocean affords the opportunity for some enterprising adventurer to do the Kidnapping act necessary to scoop in the coin. The government of the United States should not permit the Mexican government or any other government to offer a reward for any man in this country If the Mexican government has any legal claim on the person of Magon this government will no doubt undertake his capture and detention for extra dition, but to simply offer a reward for his delivery on Mexican soil should not be permitted, as that is nothing more or less than offering a bonus on the violation of the laws of the United States.

SENATE DESIGNS TO KILL TREATY.

Speaker Walker of the Massachu- setts house of representatives has been having some very interesting correspondence with Senator Lodge in regard to Canadian reciprocity. Mir. Walker protested in the public press against the attitude of the Massachusetts senator. and was ac- cused of basing his criticism upon unreliable newspaper reports.
 The following reply from Mir Walker is full of interesting infor- nation:
 T did not base my letter on news paper reports, but on statements made directly to me over Mir. Lodges own signature. He wrote me def nitely that he intended 10 support the Root amendment and that he, himself. should offer the fisheries amendment.
 The treaty is being fought by great selfish interests, by fair means and by foul. These interests have de cided tO kill the bill by amendments, some designed to set the two houses al variance, and some designed to compel the reopening of negotiations with Canada. The Root amendment Is typical of the former and the Lodge amendment of the latter.
 Mir. Lodge knows the house will not accept the Root amendment. He wrote me that the democrats would oppose it. MT Taft will not stand for it. By supporting il Mir. Lodge places himself in antagonism to the president.
 Mir. Lodge wrote me that he had promised the president to support the treaty but had made no agreement as to amendments. This reminds me of Mir Lodges statement of two years ago, that the republicans prom ised to revise the tariff, but that they did Rot promise to revise it downward.
 Mfr. Lodges whole attitude in this matter renders necessary a protest iD no uncertain terms President Taft's tarif board bill was held in the senate until the closing hours Of the session, and then killed by a democratic filibuster in the house do not wish to see the reciprocity treaty meet a similar fate
 The republican party in Massa- chusetts is at the parting of the ways. If it stands solidly back Of the president and his policies, there still nay be harmony. The issue largely depends upon MT Lodges ultimate attitude towards Canadian reciprocity

Country Town Sayings
 By Ed" Howe)

Some people are SO conceited and greedy that Good Luck cannot pos sibly meet their expectations.
 People in big cities would behave better if they knew each other as well as do country town people. In a country town. a man hears gossip about a sin when coming home from it.
 People soon forget an outrage, in their eagerness to find another one.
 Seven out of ten men, when they perform a service for you. and no price is agreed upon, will chsrge more that the service is worth. Such an action is a cousin to Dis honesty.
 A woman cant fight, but she has a scream in her that is a perfect protection.
 Probably the easiest thing in the world is to be a bore.
 A successful man probably never realizes how hard an unsuccessful man finds life.
 A wife always has the unhappy consciousness that her husband is willing to hirt with other women.
 It's a pretty tough proposition, whether you keep house or board.
 When a girl is eight years old, her parents says she is mighty well behaved about the boys.
