The Term Philosopher.

The word philosopher is said to
have originated with the celebrated
Pythagoras, who was born about $40
B. G. The word means a lover Of wis.
dom. Pythagoras must have been
very remarkable man. for It fs certain
that he made a profound and lasting
impression upon his time. He was
the originator OF the idea that nature
is harmony and that its varied phe-
nomena are all brought about by IN
erring and universal laws and are an
expression Of nothing less than the
universe itself. True to the name he
gave himself. Pythagoras Is said to
have devoted his whole life to the &C.
QUESTION of knowledge to the end that
he might impart &C to others without
money and without price. He was
one Of the noble influences OF antiq-
uity. and the effects of his unseif1sh
labors are still visible among men,

Bristow Leads Reactionaries.

Senator Bristow Of Kansas assisted
by the solid delegation of special privi-
lege senators, succeeded in lacking an
amendment to the resolution provi5-
ing for the direct election of senators,
which greatly endangers and may de-
feat that measure. Bristow pretended
the amendment, which retains federal
control over the elections, world
strengthen the probability of its final
passage, when the fact is Brist1w
knew, as did every other senator in
the chamber, that the amendment
would endanger and perhaps defeat
the ratification of the resolution By
the necessary threefourths of the
states.
The Bristow amendment is the sara
used by Sutherland of Utah and TIE
ring of Wall street buccaneers in thu
senate in the last session TO defeat
direct senatorial elections The meu
who worked hardest for the Bristcw
amendment were Lorimer of Illinois,
Guggenheim of Colorado, Cummins of
Iowa, Lippitt of Rhode Island Clapo
of Minnesota, Smoot of Utah ard
Stephenson of Wisconsin.
The Bristow amendment was fought
by La Toilette. Gronna, Borah, Pom
dexter and Works, republicans and
every democrat in the senate save ono.
