TIME TO ABANDON
UNWORTHY SECTIONAL
AMUSEMENT

The most humiliating paradox in
American politics to-day is the shrink
ing attitude OF some of our own people
toward the presidential possibilities of
Southern men.
The civil war, the memories of which
furnished the nursery for this indefensi-
bic sectional abasement, is so years at
our back. Ninety per cent of the Amer
lean voters who elect a president re-
member this war and its dividing rancor
only as history. With outstretchcd
hands, having given every proof OF view
ing Mason and Dixon's line as no more
political barrier than the Mississippi
or the Rockies, the dominant generation
at the North invites the South, its pub
lie men, by right of citizenship and by
right of demonstrated ability, into full
fellowship i'll Tie nations counsels
South Wanting i'm BoIdness
What has been the answer of the
South-at least, the answer that NAV be
interpreted by the silence or the diff
dence of hundreds of thousands of rep
resentativc Southerners?
Diseased by the ghosts of half CEN
fury ago, guilty of an embarrassment
N''N a oNiA CONSCIOUSNESS llldl ID
short of arrant sectional cowardcc,
there is feeling among many South
crners that the wraiths of the sixties
still stand between the South and the
White House-the South and that par
ticipation in the nations voice, the ma
tons destiny, TO which the nation is
eager TO admit us.
The consequences of this abnegation OF
common manhood could not be more
forcefully portrayed than in the words
OF the Constructors Washington CORE
spondent, in a dispatch discussing the
presidential status resulting from the
Observation-Disclosures episode. IF
he" writes our correspondent, canvass
ing the possibilities of Oscar Under
wood, the brilliant Alabamian, along
with other Southcrners, pays the penal
ty of being a Southern man, IT will be
the South and not the North to ex-
act it."

FOR A PUBLIC FORUM.
Waterbury Democrat.l

Governor, Wilson's speech at Min neapolis was a nasterly discussion of should be read by everyone who is earnestly trying to bring about so- lution of the great problem of our day.
 At the very outset of his speech Mir Wilson, with his usually happy gift for hitting off big idea in every city would do we'll to consid- CT: Tt is som etin1es fnconvenient for crowds to gather on street corners, said MT. Wilson. 'sbut it is never in country to have anybody who has anything to say, speak his mind. It is absolutely indispensable that in every municipality in the United States there should be some great pop- ular forum like Hyde Park in Lon don where everybody may come; ance, if he has one; and where, req soning together. men may under stand one another and know what it is that they have in common and what it is that they differ about. On ly in this way will genuine public opinion be put together. No kind ever to act against the absolutely full expression of private opinion
 Here we have concrete sugges- The old town meeting place of New England is not feasible in larger cit ies but it is possible and desirable tifat lAe peop1e may nave a common meeting place where all may speak their minds without fear or favor. Continuing this idea Governor Wilson said: There isn't anything quite so good for the explosion of foolish ideas their exposure in public and there isn't anything comparable to that same kind of exposure as giving sound ideas currency among the whole body of the people I have often thought that the only strength of a public man consisted in the number of neTSOnS who 9OrA0d with him and that the only strength that any man can boast of and be proud of is that great bodies of his fellow citizens trust him and are ready to follow him.
 A man who can talk like that will get a hearing wherever he goes, ani when Governor Wilson's views and policies are fully known to the people of shis country the number of his fel- low citizens who will agree with him will make him strong indeed.

THE PoPEs WARDROBE.
CLondon Chronicle )

The Pope, who despite the pre- dictiOns of the superstitious, has just com p1eted the ninth year of his pom tifcate, is said to maintain in the Vat jean the simplicity of the pariak priest of SalanzO. But he cannot avoid being the most expensively dressed man in the world. Tror though Pope may eat what he likes, he must be dressed in accord ance with the traditional etiquette of his office, which prescribes that he shcU1d wear different garments every da!~ of the year. Nearly all his robes are ornamented with rare jewels; his surplices are of the most valuable lace: his gloves are embroidered with pearls in the shape of a cross; his +'woolens" are prepared from the flee ces of a herd of sheep kept specially for this purpose, and his rings, set with gems, of natchless quality, are priceless. It is by far the most cost ly wardrobe in the world.

With hot air you can get the fresh, pure air from outside, and send it into every corner of the house. My belief is that families using hot air furnaces that are properly installed enjoy bet ter health than those who use hot wa. ter for heating; but, unfortunately a great many hot air furnaces are ar ranged to take the air from inside the house. This loses the most valuable asset that should ordinarily be placed to the credit of the hot air furnace. However, either system should em- brace thorough plan for constantly changing the air in the rooms through ventilatins tiues. But, I am sorry to say, this is subject the American people have paid very little attention to- It is destined to occupy our atten- more about the germ theory of dis ease. It is not necessary to mention steam heating for small dwelling The economy of steam comes in when we have larger building to heat.
 like to plan houses like this, be- cause they are so thoroughly complete when properly built, as they should be. from cellar to attic, with all the essen. tials carefully worked out. It is just as important to balance up all the me chanical features of a house as it is to look to and adjust all the parts of a machine. Mechanics have more to do with our comfort and health than most of us realize. A small fire in the cellar may be made to supply hot wa ter to the laundry tubs, to the kitchen and to the bathroom. so we can have hot water to use at any hour of the day or night. l often think that we accept the many modern improve. ments in our houses without due ap- preciation.

Amazon River,

It has been stated in official consu lar reports that the aggregate naIi' gable waters of the Amazon and trlb' utaries for all sorts of craft is estl mated to exceed 45,000 miles. The average depth is from 40 tc 15O feet and the average width from $ to 40 miles.
 At the mouth near Para the river is 13S miles wide, including the is- land of Marajo and the northern and southern outlets. The immense vol ume of water discharged marks a path of yellow water in the blue of the At. lantic easily distinguishable for 150 miles at sea, creating fresh water sea while out of sight of land. This yellow or old gold colored water unit ing with the equat Trial current trends to the north at tie rate of six miles an hour, and entering the Caribbean sea forms what is recognized as tue Gulf stream.
