The Liberal Wave

From Harper's Weekly.
 We had a liberal victory last autumn. and the drift is still decidedly toward liberal ideas and policies Neither of our parties represents perfectly what the word historically means, but in both the parties liberal thought and sentiment have been gaining, and through both the liberal impulses has been working to it's ends.
 Perhaps a fair measure of the degree of the ascendency of that impulse in each is the proportion of support for reciproc- ity with Canada.
 It is possible and reasonable to be more general still, to draw a still wider circle. The cause for which '1iberal' is the best word has been gaining elsewhere, too; there has been a liberal revival all over the world. It is but a few years since things were very different; since the con- servatives in England and the stand-pat republicans in this co-intry seemed to be firmly entrenched in power: since absolut- ism in Germany met with few effective checks; since even in France somewhat reactionary forces were perceptible, form
 dable. But within the past half-dozen years the truly self-governing peoples have regained a lot of self-confidence, and other peoples have struck hard for freedom. Portugal, Percia. Turkey, Ger many, Mexico-the list Is impressively long and geographically still more re- markable. It is quite enough to justify with 1S4S AS is usual when such an impulse is trembling on from cast to vest old England avoids vio- lence and extremes in her response; but England has been going. for her. pretty far The Lloyd-George budget was a big stride away from conservatism, a body blow to privilege; and now in a single session of parliament it is proposed with confidence both to alter the standing and functions of the lords and to give to Ire land a substantial measure of home rule.

Both proposals are fought with heat and bitterness, but with nothing like the heat and bitterness they encountered when they first began to be made. Concerning both the nation has undergone a change of moods, of standards, of horizon. In France, meanwhile, the most genuinely and intrepidly liberal of recent govern lnents has shown extraordinary strength. In Germany liberal ideas are not merely making head against absolutism; they are taking on a form that shows plainly their identity with all the rest of liberal- ism in the world.
 The good old cause is in a good way

Harem Skirt in Spain

Madrid, March 1s-(SpeciaD- Spain is taking the harem skirt seriously. Several Madrid, many arrests being effected. Re- gently two aristocratic ladies attired in ordinary skirts were wantonly and mis- takenly attacked by a huge mob of 300 people, and had to seek the protection of their gentlemen friends and the police.

discovery of the fact that a single city lot formerly used for a one-family dwell- ing, could be made to house from F to Is families, had it's natural effect in stim- ulating land values. As the population grew and the price of land went up the houses were gradually increased in height and depth. Instead of being only four rooms deep, they became five, six, seven, and sometimes eight; and five, six and oc- casionally seven stories high The rooms thus became sunless cells

County Snperintendents Clerks.

The Civil Service Commission will
hold public hearing on Tuesday,
December 5th, in its rooms at the
State House at IL M, on the exception
of the position of Clerk to County
superintendent of Schools. These are
considered to be virtually private
secretaries or confidential clerks to a
number of school officers and quite a
number of them were appointed under
the old school law which made such
appointments optional, while others
have been appointed since the passage
of the new school law passed last
winter making such appointments
mandatory There will be one such
position in each county and the oc-
cupant should, of course, be somewhat
familiar with local conditions. Any
citizen may appear at this hearing
either in behalf of or against the ex-
emptiofl of this position
