LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
The Political Situation.


 Mir Editor: In reviewing the polit- ical disturbances of the past six months which has induced so many political authorities to express thei1 views, it appears that many hinge their arguments upon personal defects of Q candidate rather than on the principles that he advocates for his respective party.
 There are many who are lost in wonder, love and praise over state ments misrepresented by some one who has an axe to grind. These are to be classed with others who are vic tims of yellow Journalism, the great political dragon, as someone has char acterized it.

1t is a matter which concerns the

Some years ago the treaties between
the whites and Indians gave a large
territory to the whites which territory
was to be paid for by the govern

ernment has long been held in trust
for all people who have Indian blood
in them. Some two years ago I and
my people began an effort to get the
government to pay out this trust
monty to my people. We engaged

have become a permanent article Of

Bead chains. ranging from the su-

Mr. George NJ. Schilling, an Ameri-
can athlete, is now on his way round
the world rolling a globe. For wa
ger of about fifteen thousand dollars
Mr.. Schooling has undertaken the gi-
gantic task of not only rolling the
globe, but living and sleeping in 1t,
further condition being that he must
not earn, beg, or borrow for his sub
sistence, his only source of income
being from the sale of picture-post-
cards. He started on February 25th,
1911, and his route is shown in white
on the globe. The globe is seven feet
in diameter, twenty-five feet girth,
and weighs six and a half hundred
weight Mr.. Schilling also states that
owing to an accident, he had had
temporarily to place the globe on
wheels This is his second attempt
to accomplish his long journey-the
first time he had the misfortune to
lose an arm in China during the Box
er rebellion.-Strand Magazine.

JUMPING THOUSAND HURDLES

The craze for strange records be-
gan a great many years ago. There
was an elderly London omnibus-driv-
er named Priestly who at Hull, in
1868, jumped a thousand hurdles
each three feet six inches high in
sixty-one and a half minutes. 1t Is
said that this record has never since
been equalled. Priestley began om-
nibus driving in the same year, 1868,
and during his forty-six years in the
service of the London General Om-
nibus company he drove buses a dis
tance of about eight hundred and fif-
ty thousand miles.-From the Strand

Hay, who was a very able secretary
of state but who lacked the physical
vitality to oppose successfully the jim
&c policies of President McKinley's
successor.
"Mr. Hays predecessor was Will
liam r. Day, who pas pitchforked in
to office for few months after
John Sherman broke down.
"Mr Days predecessor was John
Sherman, who was physically and
mentally incapable of discharging the
duties of secretary Of state, but was
appointed in order to create a vacan-
/ cy in the senate for the benefit of
Mark Hanna.
/ "Mr. Shermans predecessor was
Richard Olney, who will be remem-
bered chiefly for his connection with
the Venezuela episode, and Mr..
Olney's predecessor was Judge Gresh-
and little was obtained.
Judge Gresham's predecessor was
John w. Foster, who finished Blaine's
term after Blaine resigned from Har-
rison's cabinet to head the conspiracy
to deprive Harrison of a renomina-
ton. And so the story runs. Blaine,

Mr.. Bryan need not feel much en-
barassed in such company, nor would
any of that company feel embarrassed
to know that Mr.. Bryan was num-
bered among his successors.
Great secretaries of state have been
few, and occasions that called for
great secretary of state have happily
been even fewer Mr.. Bryan would
never be a satisfactory secretary of
state for the champions of Dollar Di-
plomacy. or for millionaires who re-
gard the diplomatic corps as an annex
to the Four Hundred. But we believe
that his attitude toward foreign
questions is the attitude of vast ma
jority of the American people, and we
observe that the opposition to his ap-
pointment comes chiefly from people
who want the state department to re-
main a subsidiary Wall street cor
poration."

an now when suggested as a cabinet
member also opposed him in June
