And finally, be 1t said in his favor

class of dogs that will sell more
readily or bring better prices than
the collies.

whole, however, there is note OF
optimism.
The one thing upon which there is
agreement is that with our usual cock
sureness that the prosperity of this
country cannot be seriously hurt the
effects of the late panic were dis
counted too soon. Too many people
were whistling to keep courage up
while hiding real wounds-a brave
spirit, but even the bravest may need
time to recuperate if he is going the
pace that calls for speed and strength.
One other thing about which there
is unanimity of opinion is that we
have been too extravagant. If we had
to suggest New Year resolution we
would say: Resolve to be economical
and live within your income. And we
would add, in the words of those rude
signs pinned on so many doors, This
means you"
The best thing that has come out
of the years of adversely which occa
sionally visit this country is the
salutary lesson that you can't eat
your cake and have it.
If the average man makes up his
mind that, no matter what his neigh
Dor does, he will see that ends meet,
and quit spending money when he
hasn't got it; if the average woman
will conform her household to the size
of her purse instead of going on in
happy go-lucky fashion, hoping, like
Mr.. Micawber, that something will
turn up" both realizing that many
for which they blame the
stars originate nearer home, the world
will be much better and happier
place.
Nothing is truer than the homely
axioms that have ripened in experience.
Self-help is the best help.

A BLOW AT ENGLAND'S UN-
CONSCIOUS HUMoR.

If the death of Garrick eclipsed the
gayety of nations, surely an an
nouncement just made by the chan
cellor of the University of Oxford will
throw a slight penumbra on the face
of international mirth.
Not Punch itself, that jocund print,
has brought the tears of laughter to
so many eyes on this side, of the her
ring pond as does the plain, tweeded
Englishman when he permits his in
sular mind to dwell on things Ameri-
can, and now the old University bv
the Isis is to have a chair for the
specific purpose of teaching the real
facts about the United States.
Our history and institutions, and; let
us hope, our geography, are to be
made the study of a special depart
ment, like ethnology, philology, and
the science of bugs. No more will the
cheerful Britisher who has smoked
away six or seven years at Brasenose
or Merton 60 forth into the busy
marts with an idea that Rhode Island
is one of the Lesser Antilles and that
San Francisco lies in about the longi-
tude of South Bend.
Those who are to come after him
will not fear to visit us lest they be
set upon by the buffalo in Central
Park or captured by slave drivers in
Alabama.
1t is one of life's little ironies that
the highest representative ~of Great
Britain in this country has written
our standard wade mecum on "The
American Commonwealth even as an
American has given England a stan
dard history of her own constitution,
but the average Englishman, who
thinks the sun completes his course be-
tween John O. Groat's and Lands End,
has for years kept us in good spirits
through many dark era by his origi-
nal interpretations of our history and
geography.
Now that the torch has been lit at
Oxford and this amusing misinforma-
tion is to be dispelled, we shall have
TO fall back upon the more intentional
but less original humor of Mr.. Punch,
whose risibles are in his head.

CoUNTRY'S EYES. ARE ON
: STATE LEGISLATURES.

The next fortnight will be marked
~ the opening of legislative sessions
in something over half the States in
the Union. 1t is significant of the
profound interest in public affairs that
the legislatures are receiving more at
tention than in many years.
Sharp contests for Senatorial togas
command attention in several States.
The incoming of Democratic legisla-
lures in other States, with response
biIities which must weigh heavily in
determining party chances in the ma
tional contest next year, increase the
general concern about State programs.
But entirely aside from all this the
work of the legislatures this year will
be peculiarly significant because of
the great progress that has been made,
without regard to party, in the direc-
tion of a restoration of power to the
people. Everywhere the people are
demanding that legislatures shall take
larger account of public wishes than

Capital T ales.
Roberts Is Unhappy.

Representative Ernest w. Roberts OF
Massachusetts is one OF the most un.
happy men in the House of Representa-
tives. Mr.. Roberts was not defeated last
November. although, he came mighty
close to 1t, but bis sorrow is due to an
mother cause.
When the House office building was
erected all members who were not
chairmen of important committees were
shunted over to the new building. Rob-
erts Included. Now the Massachusetts,
statesman did not like to be so far
away from the base OF operations-a
term, by the way. which he learned
from the officers who appeared before
the Naval Committee, of which he is
member.
After walking back and forth between
his office in the new building and the
Capitol, Roberts discovered a tiny
storeroom in the Capitol, and he in
duced Speaker Cannon to have this
converted into an office. At the last
session of Congress Roberts was ap-
ShoA VI tie On
Private Land Claims. His committee
does not have much work to do, but as
chairman he was entitled to some con-
sideration in the matter of office ac-
commodations. He unanswered around
until he found another chairman who
was willing to trade his suite in the
Capitol for the Roberts suite In the
office building.
Being on friendly terms with the
Speaker and Elliott Woods, superinten-
dent of the Capitol, Roberts set about
to have his committee rooms renovated.
The rooms overlook Washington. and
are desirable in every way. Roberts,
however, wanted some nice furniture,
draperies, and all the fixings Woods
put his men to work and slowly but
surely was Transforming the committee
room into a pretty fine sort of place
when the Congressional elections put a
stop to the work.
Roberts, being a Republican will Hose
his Craftsmanship. and therefore all right
to suite of rooms. He will have TO
hike back to a single Office in the Hous~
office building. and surrender his COM
Portable quarters to a Democrat. The
worst part of it, from the Roberts view
point. is that all the desirable offices
have been filed on. and Roberts will
have to make his choice along with new
members OF Congress.
