It is just a little hard to take tn, congress of the United States seri- ously. The democratic majority ir the house knows it is absolutely inn possible to pass a free trade tariff bill at this session and yet these politica gladiators are going ahead and ham, mering a tariff measure into shape just as though they were engaged al some really serious business. The crying need of the country just now in a legislative way, is the enactment of sane banking and currency laws; but sanity seems too much to expect from the statesmen now in the sad dle, especially with presidential election less than a year away.

Roosevelt has said time and again that he is not candidate. will not be a candidate. and that he would regard his nomination as a calamity" The significant fact about the action of the gentlemen living in Lincoln is that they don't seem will ing to take the ex-president at his word.
 And there is a very general senti- ment to that effect. In the face of repeated assertions that he is not seeking the nomination and does not want it. MT. Roosevelt. either inten- tionally or unintentionally, leaves the impression that under the right kind of circumstances he would not object 10 being the party's standard bearer next year.
 But after all. this speculation is idle. The nominee of the republican party next year will be William How ard Taft. There are just two things that could prevent his nomination. his own physical disability or his own declination.

education, the new democracy,
the new religion, the new code
of political ethics, the new uni

their ardor have advocated the new
woman and the harem skirt.
Today men are beginning to break
away from the old beliefs and ideas
which have held the human mind in
thralldom for centuries. The new edu-
cation says that no man is completely
educated who can not at least do one
thing well, that education should be a
training for human service. and the day
Is near at hand when the trade schools
win supplant the professional schools.
The new religion Is beginning TO COM
prehend that the only blessed trinity
is the one of life, love and labor; and
it is beginning to believe In the universal
brotherhood of man in all things and at
all times. The new democracy Is be-
ginning to realize the necessity of gov
ernmental control in the accumulation
of wealth, 1t is beginning to see that
the rights of the people must be repres-
ented by fearless, conscientious, and
honest men. We have had enough of
