Put it may be we'll asked: How long will the grip of the rebel leaders on the mob remain effective?

 IL must not be imagined that any of the solicitude displayed by the revolutionaries for the safety of Eu- ropeans arises out of love for them. il is dictated. as shown above. by motives of self-i interest.

REBEL LEADERS AND CHINESE
 MOBS.

The most remarkable feature of the Chinese rebellion is the ability of the rebel leaders to control the mnb-the more remarkable because Chinese mob. besides. being the worst in the world. is the most easily stirred tD violence. It has been likened to a pack of human wolves. more devil ishly cruel and savagely relentless than the animals themselves It be- comes stark. raving mad with the lust of blood and plunder, and is utterly careless of life. Terrible. indeed. is the fate of the man ar woman. who falls into it's hands-too terrible to think of. much less to risk and for that reason no man who fought against the Boxers in 1900 ever fired away his last cartridge: he kept that for himself. and if he was too badly wounded to use it, comrade per formed the happy dispatch" That was the order.
 The character of the Chinese mob makes the psychology of the Chimes" an intensely interesting study. In ordinary times he is the most reason able being in the world: patient beast of burden. an industrious work CT, an admirable servant. an eXcep- tionally capable and Ievel-headed man of business: but when the electric current of disturbance is in the air he goes mad and becomes a brutal. unreasonirg savage Competent au- thorities describe this phenomenon as due to national hysteria"
 The Suddenness with which the change comes is indescribable: with out any warning a foreigner may be under the danger of being horribly cone to death by the coolie who but an hour before was cheerfully trun- ding him about the city in a rick shaw. As a rule it is hatred Of the foreigners that is the spark which kindles the fury of the Chinese mob. The Boxer movement was directed against the foreigner: the riots al Hankau last January blazed out on the mere rumor that a native had been kicked to death by a European policeman. Thus the present immun- ity from danger of foreigner residents in the Yangtse valley is most re markable. If the landing of German sailors be discounted as a precaution- ary measure-as it should be-it may be said that Europeans have not even been threatened by the mob Nor has a missionary been murdered. even in the remotest of places
 It is. of course. of the very first importance of the success of the re- bellion that the mob shall be kept hand: the slightest attack upon for eiSners would mean the armed inter vention of the powers and the utter ruin of the revolutionary cause. The rebel leaders know that. and. so far. they have achieved what seemed to be the impossible-they have prevent ed the mob from going mad. It may he that the expenditure of energy in this direction accounts for the want of enterprise against the imperialists

ASPECTS OF PUBLIC OWNER
 SHIP"

Can any line be drawn between those enterprises that should be in public hands and those that should not? T. there any principle that can be laid down for guidance. pr any formula at once explicit and compI ehensive enough to serve as a touchstone in all emergencies?
 The answer is that no such simple solution of the difficulty has been. or probably ever will be. arrived at. But there are certain considerations which when taken together may serve as something more than makeshift direc- tion-pOstS. The most earnest advo- CateS of public ownership. for instance. admit that a municipality is not justi- fled in attempting to meet any demand which is not sufficiently extensive and constant to keep the necessary plant fully employed. The most ardent op- ponents of public ownership. on the other hand. admit that in the case of many utilities the balance of advantag- ~s points to their municipalization. Thus practically no one objects to see ing sewerage systems. markets. water works. baths. cemetries. and slaughter houses in public hands. while yer strong case, as a rule, can be made out for turning over harbors and docks to the management of the local authori- ties In all these cases where munich palization is generally held to be nee essary. it appears. says Major Leonard Darwin. that there are three conditions usually fulfilled. G) The enterprise is one which would be a complete mon "poly were it in private hands" @ The services rendered are of great importance to the community at large" '3) The fair price to be paid for the work performed is not readily estimat- ed in advance" When an undertaking fulfiES these three conditions the argu- mcnt for bringing it under public own ership. with or without public opera tion, is so strong as to be practically overwhelming.

bills of general interest introduced bv MT Cameron. Besides, he introduced bills calling for appropriations for the purchase of sites or for the construc- tion of public buildings for Douglas. Globe, Nogales. Phoenix, Tucson and Yuma. But the great majority of bills introduced by MT. Cameron as by oth- Ter congressman, were for relief of va riOus kinds-for Indian depredations. for loss of property through fault of government agents or agencies real or imaginary: to legaliZe ar authorize ac- ton taken or to be taken by cities or towns within the territory as for in stance the issuing of bonds for public Improvements. and for pensions for ex- soldiers or sailors or their dependents.
 All of those bills require that much departmental work be done if the con- gressman is conscientious and anxious 'to please his constituents-and in the case of Mir Cameron his most violent political opponents admit that he was industrious, conscientious and anXius to please.
 Through all of this super heated pO- litical campaign not one specific in- stance of neglect of duty has been charged against MT Cameron his op- ponents ,contenting themselves with the general accusation that he was a reac- tiOnary in that he proved unable to
 induce President Taft to approve the recall of the judiciary feature of the Arizona constitution forgetting that President Taft had we'll defined views of his own regarding that question and had a legal right to act upon them
 Ralph Cameron was elected to con- Sress upon a distinct pledge to secure statehood for Arizona and he redeemed that pledge to the letter. He secured statehood on the best terms obtain able He secured it without he sac rificing of one iota of principle in spite of enemies of statehood in Arizona and out of it and is entitled to the praise rather than the blame of the people of Arizona.

replaceable monopoly supplying

: ireplaceable monopoly supplying a community with some essential utility on terms that cannot be regulated be- forehand is ispO facto a fit subject for
 municipaliZatiOn.
 IL IS rather. however, over those en-
 terprises that tend to become mOnop- olies and that present no insuperable
 difficulties of public supervision and COntrol-such as gas-works. electrIc
 lighting. street. cars. and telephones that the battle for and against muni- equalization has chiefly ragged. And here the example and experiences of Great
 Britain are of the first value and inn
 portarcc. No country in the world has plunged so heavily into the policy of municipal trading and none shows
 its good effects and its bad effects more plainly. The local debt of the United Kingdom at this moment amounts to over S3, 0OG. 900 .0OO the capital sunk in reproductive undertak- irgs considerably exceeds $1,500, ,G00.- GOO: and the average per capita debt Of the eighteen leading British cities is some S1l4. or nearly three times as much as the average per capita debt of the eighteen principal cities in the United States It is to Great Britain that the advocates of public ownership look to vindicate their ideas: it is from Great Britain that they draw their in. spiration: and it is British example that they constantly hold up as pat tern for other nations A studN therefore. of the general results pro- duccd in Great Britain by municipal trading on a large scale ought to he illuminating-Syd Brooks. in The North American Review for November

"A DOCTOR FOR SICK SoULS.-

IL is unnecessary to point out how alien is NietZsche's whole attitude of mind to the American temper. He ab- hored commercialism. humanitarian ism. facile optimism, any form of cas- ual, easy-going light -heartedness. The very foundation of his philosophy was to admit an evil world; to make no such slim excuses for it as that it was the best of all possible worlds whiles most things in it were necessarily evils.
 IL was suffering and compliance and a broken spirit thought NietZsche, which had finally consoled itself with inventing a Heaven and hereafter in which to store it's joys It was a

'an arrow and an aspiration after su- perman." Again. Nietsche objected tO shifting the burden of improving life upon God or upon evolution. Man by deliberate choice and by imposing his will was to create values and affirm a worthy life. This is the meaning Of his proclamation in "ZarathUshtra'' God is dead. Now. men he calls it is your time tO make an effort. tO create worth for life. since there is no outside help. The very roots Of good and evil are in your own hearts: they are not in life. in chance. in luck or in the hereafter The proc lamatiOn is amazingly like one made long before: The kingdom of Heaven is within you.'-LOuise Collier Will cox, in North American Review.
