covered from the evil consequences
of that campaign, and II would not
soon recover from the evil conse-
quences OF Roosevelt campaign, how
ever disastrously the third-term can
dldate might be beaten at the polls.
The Republican party can find It's
own lesson in the fate OF the Demo
cratic party. In 1896 the Chicago con-
vention repudiated Democratic pres

its record and its traditions and It's

ever since, and only since The menace
OF Rooseveltism appeared has the
Democratic party succeeded In rehaD-

The Republican party is facing the
great crisis of its history, and the
result will be determined largely py
the Massachusetts primaries.
The World long believed that Mr..
Rooseyelt's nomination at Chicago
would be impossible. We are by no
means so sure as we We're. our con-
fidence in Republican sanity and Re
publican intelligence is not so strong
as IL was. The Roosevelt madness
has seized upon the Republican party
much as the free-silver madness seized
upon the Democratic party in 1896,
If Massachusetts, with its loosely
drawn primary law under which Dem
ocrats can vote for Republican dele
gates, should be carried by Mr. Roose-
Welt, il will be difficult, indeed, to pre-
vent his nomination. III the Tart
leaders in other states make such a
mess OF things as they made in Mis-
souri,, ii will be impossible to prevent
Mr. Roosevelt's nomination.
The Roosevelt campaign has been
MANAGED on the same lines as the
16-to-1 campaign in 1896. II has been
as lavishly financed by the Perkins
progressives as the free-silver cam
paign was financed by the western
mine owners. All the most eloquent
demagogues in the Republican party
have been enlisted under the Roose
Welt banner. as all the most eloquent
demagogues in the Democratic party
were enlisted under the 16-to1 banner
Popular appreciation of the serious
ness of the issue Is inert now, as IL
was in the spring Of 1896.
The Roosevelt speeches make the
same appeal to class hatred and the
mob spirit that was made In the Tree
silver speeches. They make the same

The Grocer's Side

So much has been said about small

the following extract from letter
from a grocer, published In the April

The same sort OF men who were de-

ago as the corrupt tool OF Wall-st are
now denouncing William II. Taft as

system of demagogy and Islander and
falsehood Is employed for the benefit
of Roosevelt that was employed for
the benefit OF the silver mine owners.
The sympathetic alliance between a
free-silver Democracy and Populism in
1896 now finds its parallel in the SYM
pathetic alliance between Roosevelt

Between the two the Roosevelt cam

To those who have not the privilege of membership in the Music study club, and are thus not familiar with the work of that excellent organization, a glimpse of the study is always Illuminating. At the occasional open meetings, one man. ages. to keep in touch with the purely musical side, but 1t Is at the regular meetings, held twice a month at Cable hall, that the serious work is done From time to time requests have come from the musicians for publication of certain papers which were considered especially valuable, and whenever 1t was possible to grant space, these col umns have been open. Recently Mrs A. R. Dearborn, a very scholarly wom- an, presented an address on the Rise and Development of the violin,g whfh was pronounced by authorities wbo heard it, one of the most accurate trea- tises to which they had ever listened. She gave the paper eXtemporaneously Illustrating with large chart drawings, and when 1t was requested that the pa per be published, 1t had to be- framed into written English, but she very gen srously consented to do so and to make smaller drawings of the diagrams The paper, somewhat abbreviated, is repro duced today.
 Sound, the first essential to music, ts best defined as air set in vibration with displacement, said Mrs. Dearborn. Its movement Is like that of water which has been disturbed. cork placed on the surface of a pool of water into which a stone is cast, will rise and fall with the waves, but it remains in practically. the same place, serving as . proof thai the water is not advancing. The billowing surface only indicates the onward transmission of the impulse.
 without air there can be no sound, as there is nothing in a vacuum to re- ceive and carry vibrations. Regular vibrations of air give us what are called tones. Upon these tones and their in tervals our musical system is con structed.

 Now Easy to Have
lFrom Family Physician

There's no excuse for any woman having wrinkles now. It has been found that simple mixture of saxo- lite and witch hazel has remarkable action upon the deepest wrinkles, no matter what their nature, whether caused by worry, habitual frowning, a debiliated condition of the ravages of Father Time. This harmless remedy, which anyone can easily make. obtain ing the ingredients at any drug store, acts both as an astringent and tonic. The combined effect of tightening the skin and heightenihg its vitality is to immediately affect every line and wrinkle, keeping the cuticle smooth and firm as in youth.
 The proportions are one ounce saxo- lite (powdered) to one-half pint witch hazel. The solution should be used as a wash lotion. It is equally effective in disposing of flabbiness. of cheek and neck, as well as sagging below the eyes
