When You Are Revolutionary

Ray Stannard Baker remarks that there never
has been revolution over economic question
only revols; that every revolution has been caused
by the attempt of new element in the community to
obtain power hitherto denied them He refers to the
surprise and indignation of King John at the de-
mand of feudal barons to share his power, and re-
cites various other pertinent examples.
The present upheaval in politics he diagnoses as
revolutionary because the people insist ON nominal
ing and recalling their officials and initiating and
exercised by great private interests through elected
representatives of the people.
He might also have spoken of the struggle of the
women to get their share Of power. That is reyolu-

THE Lonely Old Age"

The oldest school teacher in Chicago says she is
glad she never married, because she "could not
dure lonely old age" She explains: 'sOur men
work hard nowadays. They give out early, and their
wives outlive them by many years Just when the
wife and mother thinks the time has come for pleas
ant rest and companionship the husband dies. The
children following the course of nature, slip out Of
the home nest and the woman is left alone"
There is, perhaps, something in that view of the
matter, and hope the lady and all others in her
situation will get lot of comfort out of it. But the
truth is that she has walked all her life the border
of undiscovered works The loneiest widow and
mother that ever lived has something precious
than immunity from the kind of loneliness she fears
memories! To be without such memories is to be
very poor indeed.

close together, and civilization means just thisthe
close living of the people," Hence he argues that
we have got to make the city eminently liveable.
He doesn't sympathize with the back-to the-land
movement, because he thinks that the city is the
place where are going to get our refinement and
comfort as well as our living but he admits that
we must do great deal better to make the city
agreeable or there will be trouble.

The arm0ry in Baltimore,
where the democratic national
convention is to be held, is being
entirely reconstructed. 1t is now
a mass of scaffolding and litter.
1t is to have many new exits, and
when completed promises to be
thoroughly fireproof and adapted
to the handling of big crowds
such as may be expected.
One Of the oddities of this
presidential campaign Is the fact
that Maine was carried for Roose-
welt by Fred Hale, son of ex-
Senator Hale of that state. Old
Senator Eugene Hale was for
years one of the most reaction
airy members Of the senate. He
opposed Roosevelt at every point.
When his SON wrote to Roosevelt,
saying he wished to work for him
In Maine, Roosevelt was much
amazed. He was more amazed
when young Hale went after. his
fathers old machine and in less
than six weeks put it on the scrap
heap and brought In q full dele

purchased six square miles of

being carefully paternalized by

lands were being conserved,
leased and farmed for them and
they were given money every lit

buy drink. So they reverted to

They went to Coahuila and
started operations on the old

turned their ponies leose on the
common land and farmed what
land they wanted to. The Indian
commissioner was scandalized.
He even recommended to the
president that they be extradit-
ed as criminals and dragged
back by force. However, they
were not brought back. And
