AUTHOR DAVIS
TO MARRY ACTRESS
Novelist, Two Weeks Divorced, Will
Make "Yama Yama" Girl
Second Wife.

New York, July 3.-Richard Harding
Davis, the novelist and war correspon-
dent, and Bessie Mccoy, the actress, are
to be married. This has been rumored
before, but has always been followed
by a denial.
Mr.. Davis admitted ii Monday night
at his home in Mount Kisco and said
that the wedding would take place OH
where the marriage will take place, he
refused to say word.
Mr.. Davis said that Miss Mccoy is
now in the city, but he wouldn't say
where. She and her mother and her
younger sister, Nellie, have home in
New Rochelle, but nobody answered the
telephone in their home Monday night.
This will be Miss McCoy's first mar
riage, but not Mr.. Davis 1t was only
couple of weeks ago--June 1s--that
his first wife got divorce from him in
Chicago, her home town.
The first Mrs. Davis was Cecil Clark,
daughter of wealthy Chicago iron
manufacturer. She and Mr.. Davis were
married in 1900, and they separated in
1907 Mrs. Davis sued for separation
in New York county early this year,
but had the suit withdrawn Mrs. Davis
went to Chicago and sued for divorce.
At that time Mrs. Davis said she had
n clear case of desertion. Subsequently
she made an additional charge which
was not put into the records of the
case 1t was made privately to the
judge.
Mr.. Davis met Miss Mccoy when she
was making her success as the "Ydma
Yama" girl in 1.-THE Three Twins" For
many days before the meeting he had
occupied the. same seat while she was
doing her dance.

Seattle, Wash, July 3.-The SUBJ com.
mittee of the House judiciary committee
has resumed its inquiry into the charges
of malfeasance in office brought against
United States District Judge Hanford
as the result of his observation-disclosures
of Leonard OLSEN, Socialist. City
Councilman Oliver T. Erickson, formerly
president of the Seattle Manufacturers
association. testified that he frequently
had seen Judge Hanford under the infu-
ence of liquor. The first occasion, he
said, was five years ago. Both times
the Judge was on street car, he said.
When asked by Judge Hanford's coun-
sci if he was able to diTferentiate be-
tween drowsiness and sleep from intoxi-
cation, the witness replied:

man was intoxicated"

BRITISH LABOR LEADERS
TO WAR ON THE STRIKE
An outworn Weapon, 1t Should Be Re-
placed by Legislation, They
Relieve

London, July 3.-War against the
strike as weapon of the workmen has
been declared by some Of the old-time
labor leaders of Great Britain, inelud
ing men who have hitherto advocated
extreme measures to obtain better
wages and conditions. Philip Sonw
den, one of the cIeverest of the Social
ist members of the House of Commons,
was among the first to sound the warn
ing that the men were gaining nothing
by continual strikes. As, however, he
often takes an independent stand, not
much surprise was expressed.
When keir Hardie, his more extreme
colleague, followed his example. however,
there was wrinkling of brows. Mr.
Hardie says he is more than ever con-
WINGED that legislation would produce
more permanent results than could he
hoped for from strikes. Reform enacted
by the state, he says, becomes perma-
nent and cannot be taken away, but
concessions won by a strike during good
times might be lost by lockout in
bad times. Therefore labor representa-
tives should be sent TO parliament to
enact the right kind of legislation. Mr..
Hardie instanced the late attempt of
national strike of transport workers,
which dismally failed, as case of
how things should not be done.
The union officials are beginning to
realize that trades unionism is not in
a healthy state in England at present.
Last year men went on strike against
the advice of their leaders and gained
their leaders and gained little or moth
ing. This year the officials ordered the
strikes, but the men, following the more
astute leaders, refused to respond. The
fall in the bank balances OF the unions
and the failure in most cases to secure
any appreciate benefits through strikes
have made the men more cautious.

THE SOCIALIST PARTY.
Socialists Revolutionary; Progressives
Evolutionary.

Ray Stannard Baker, writing in the
July American Magazine, says in part:
''The Socialist party places its main
emphasis upon its economic program,
which it has worked out with extra
ordinary comprehensiveness. Where the
progressive is often hazy in regard to
his economic views, the Socialist admits
no doubt. Where the Socialist would
leap at once to radical economic changes,
the progressive, on the other hand would
build his political machinery very care
fully before he attempts to produce
economic results. Where Socialism is
revolutionary, the progressive movement
is evolutionary.
Thus we stand to-day in the midst
of great thingsa great time-a time
of immense vitality, growth, change. de-
velopment. 1t is true that there is a
large class in the country who
are secure, those who wish to enjoy
without labor, those who are old, or
those who are temperamentally fearful
of new and adventurous ways-who look
upon the situation as menacing and
ominous.
But the mass Of people in this coun-
try unquestionably look upon the pres
ent situation not only without fear but
with hopefulness. To them it means
awakening, growth, progress-in high
sense, life. 1t means that antiquated
forms are breaking up, that the soil of
our common life is fertile for the growth
of new ideas, that new leaders are TAX
ing the field. 1t is the opportunity that
a new age offers to an adventurous
youth.
1T is just as certain as anything can
be that the spirit of progressiveness is
going to win in the country-that there
is going to be a finer scientific at
titude toward public affairs, deeper
desire for truth, that we are going to
be far more sensitive to human rights.
that we are going to work for better
relationships between men and nations
and that our vision is going to DE in
calculably widened. And with such a
spirit prevailing there must be more real
democracy, the government must and
will be taken more and more completely
from the hands of those who live ON
privilege or upon the unearned incre-
ment on land, or upon inherited money,
or upon interest. and given more and
more to those who do actual service, to
those who do the hard work of the
world-the digging, the doctoring, the
plumbing, the teaching, the inventing
And that this is tendency to be
looked for not with terror, but with
the highest hope and the surest faith.
