Perhaps there is no greater differ

Chinese do not believe in love, for we
are not sickly sentimental creatures,
but cold philosophical, fatalistic be-
ings. We arrange our matrimonial
affairs through hard reasoning and not
through the tender passion.
To us marriage is a serious bust
ness of the head, and not light af-
fair of the heart. In these matri.
monial transactions we apply the
most rigid keen, calculating business
principles, and that is why we are Sc
successful in the marriage enterprise
as We have never been buncoed by
Cupid at the game of love.
We never pay homage at the altar

hearts, the destroyer of homes and the

BEING A DEMOCRAT.
Mr.. Hearsts Varied Experiences In
Serving tho Party.
New York World ]


Sadly and sorrowfnlly the Hon. Will
liam Randolph Hearst reads the Hon.
Woodrow Wilson ont OF the Democrat
c party,
In long and anguished letter to
the Washington Post Mr.. Hearst says
Of the governor OF New Jersey:
The whole trouble with Professor
Wilson is that he is not Democrat
and does not know horw to be Demo-
srat His Democratic pose is assum-
I'd and therefore awkward and un-
natural"
But Is there no hope for Woodrow
Wilson? can he nc"cr scale the eN-
aited heights OF Democracy which Mr.
Hearst has attaiued? We know, OF
course, that Governor Wilson began
wrong but perhaps the mistakes of
the past can be remedicd.
To be truly Democratic Governor
wilson should have run as munich
pal ownership candidate for mayor in
1905 in order to defeat the regular
Democratic candidate.
In 1906 Governor Wilson should have
spent S2joOOO organizing an lndepcnd-
snce league to name him for governor
and then used this league to club
stolen nomination from Murphy after
Grady had done the dIrticst days
work Of my life"
In 1907 Governor Wilson should have
gone into partnership with the Repub
iican bosses and the Republican ma
chine and placed fusion ticket in
the field against the Democratic ticket
In 1905 Governor Wilson should have
financed and nominated an indcpend-
snt presidential ticket to help Taft and
Roosevelt defeat Bryan.
In 1900 Governor Wilson should have
r,n aS an independent candidate for
mayor against the Democratic candi-
date, with thc support OF Chauncey
~ Depcw, the Republican bosses and
ether reform" elements
In 1910 Governor Wilson should have
Been aU Independent candidate for lieu
tenant governor in the hope OF defeat
Sns the Democratic ticket and keeping
the Republicans In power In Albany.
In 1911 Governor Wilson should have
sgain nominated fusion" ticket In

Now York Colleagues Wow That New
Jersey Governor 10 Strong In Sections
Where Foes Say He 10 Weak.
ATLANTA (Ga.) Journal

Senator O'Gorman Of New York de-
elares that Woodrow Wilson II chosen
the Democratic nominee can carry that
state against any Republican.
A weightier comment on present day
politics has not been made. 1t crushes
the flimsy pretension that Woodrow
Wilson's candidacy would lose or i'm
peril the party's chance In New York
state and indicates his strength In the
strategic center OF the east as well as
IN the west and the south.
Coming from leader OF Senator
O'Gorman's prestige and farsighted-
ness, this estimate is particularly sig
Aiflcant. He Is the titular head Of the
Democracy of New York, u state that
has ninety votes In the nominating
convention and fortyf1ve votes in the
electoral college, the state for which
both parties strive most vigorously in
presidential years as the key to ma
tional success. He has the support of
Tammany Hall, but ne Is immeasura-
bly, beyond and above the system with
which Tammany Is identified In the
public mind. He is versed In prac-
teal politics, but he is also n stntes-
man Of spotless record and Of rare
ability, so much so indeed that when
he was called to the senate the people
as n whole. regardless OF party con
nections, rejoiced that the duties OF the
ONCE had fallen upon n man so emi-
nently fitted to bear them.
or all the Democratic nominees yet
suggested Woodrow Wilson would not
only stand the largest chance to carry
New York, but, according to the recent
testimony of Senator Gardner of
Maine, he is the only Democrat who
could win portions OF New England.
From the clear headed testimony OF
these two eminent Democrats, Scnn-
tor O'Gorman of New York and Sena
Tor Gardner of Maine, 1t Is evident that
Governor Wilson is particularly strong
in the very places wherein his foes
would have MS believe he is fatally
wenk
when to this fact fs added the conf
dencc and the following he has won
over the country ms a whole there can
Be no fair minded doubt that OF all
the aspirants In the field he is by far
the best fitted both as n statesman and
q candidate.

The latter-Oay Girl.

Girls nowadays are very queer
creatures" says Bishop Creighton, in
n passage not inapplcabe at the pres
ent time. They like to do odd and in
dependent things, and they will think
for themselves, without considering II
they have brains enough to think
things out. 1t is all very well to
think, il You 20 far enough; but most
people stop in the middle, and SC
make a mess.
Don't do that don't regard your
self as an interesting object. Remem
Der, the best thing to be is not a curl
Gus, original, flighty being but a good
honest simple, straightforward girl
which is what Nature intended you tc
be. Therefore, do not muddle up youl

An Alternative.

A suggestion has been made to the
militant suffragettes that, as an alter
native to window smashing, women
should express their indignation at be-
ing denied the vote by refusing to be
given In marriage. Let the ladies of
the land says the masculine maker
OF the suggestion, politely, but firm.
ly decline offers of marriage until the
votes Of women are as secure on the
statute books as the votes of men, and
