True democracy is a swarm of bees,

It is vanity, it is selfishness, which

greed to be the whole thing and TO

within the thick pachyderm Sf kings and

contemplates the recent disclosures Of

is rotten ripe for change.
How shall We make this change
If we undertake too much we scatter
our influences and accomplish nothing
l. seems to me that we should follow
the example of Thomas Jefferson and
address ourselves to the matter of edu-
Caing the people for self-government
and as / see it the first step necessary,
is TO make the transmission of know
ledge available al the lowest possible
cost and by this ! mean the improve
ment OF the postal service by the in
stallation Of the telegraph in every
postofice of the republic. There are
only $4,000 Western Union Offices in
this country. while there are over
10000 postofices. This leaves more
than 25. 600 centers Of population where
there is no way 10 communicate

HORSES PLAY AT FOOTBALL
One of the Many Features With

Football on horseback bids fair to
rival polo as a game for horseback
riders in this country. The Buffalo

year as one of the features of that
popular exhibition. It is played by
a group of horsemen. trained to ex-
pertness in the new fad" mounted
on the lively western ponies which
are features with the Wild West.
A large ball, standing half as high
as an ordinary horse, is used as the
football" The knees of the pom
les are padded and by running into
it the ball is thus propelled from
goal TO goal. Aside from the inter
est which the game creates, there
is a strong element of grotesque
comedy in the exhibition. The
horses are rugged out after the fash
ion of the regulation football player.
