PROGRESSIVE ILLUSION.

Under the above head The New York
Evening Post had the following, which
Is! certainly apropos-in these days of
alleged progressiveism:
1T seems worth while to enter a mild
protest against the rapidly growing
tendency to imagine that until there
grew UP a movement that called itself
progressive-with a big Pho prog
ress was being made in the matters to
which the progressive label is now at
tached. We may confidently expect
that in a short time the notion will
become quite general that woman suf-
frage was an invention of the progress
siNes, although sad "reactionarles"
like Ex-Governor Long of Massachu-
sets have been lifelong advocates Of
IL! and although the colonel himself is
the most recent of converts. Men and
women who have labored for work.
mems compensation acts, for limitation
OF women's working hours, for child
labor laws, and nave achieved great
results in a comparatively short time,
have not been shouting from the
hensetops that they are progresstves,
and have accomplished much progress
IN many states without attacking in
n way the foundations OF u system
Of government.
IA curious minor instance Of the ten
dency to which we refer is the widely
prevailing belief-for which Judge
Lindsey. we hasten to say, is not in
the least responsibIe-that the idea of
the Juvenile court originated at Den
yer, whereas this institution had been
I'M operation on a large scale in Chica-
I'd before it was introduced in the Col
orado city. The commission form of
government is a bold experiment,
which was put in motion at Galveston
under the stress of a practical exig-
e1lcy, and which rapidly spread to
scores Of other cities, without any
stimulus from rhapsodical progress
sivfsf11. Public service commissions
have been instituted in state after
state, either under the pressure Of gem
eral public sentiment or through the
energetic Iabors Of able and high
minded leaders like Governor Hughes,
who have not at all worn the label OF
the professional progressive. That
the progressive movement, dating
back to such agitatfons as that of La
Fplletta In Wisconsin, has been an Inn
pAPtant factor in some or all of these
things. we would not for a moment
deny; but there is all the difference In
tile world between recognizing this
and inaagtnig that without it we should
"a have stood still or gone backward.
And the practical difference between
seeing the thing straight and viewing
ii. through d haze that magnifies and
dfstorts is that in the M case we
shall walk carefully and firmly. and in
the other We are In danger OF rushing

Walter j, Hill, son OF James J. Hill,

He was on his way to join Lee Pet

he expected to have a fine time.
MI. Hill has $4,000 acres of first-cIass
land up in the northern part of North
Dakota, Minnesota and southern Can

under cultivation. Il. can say that the
wet weather did not interfere with our
grain in any shape, and although I

A GREAT ACHIEVEMENT.

Republican voters-who are declar-
ing their loyalty to Roosevelt at the
risk Of weakening the candidacy of the
regularly nominated candidate of the
republican party-might do a good
deal worse than take to heart the ut
terances of Col George Harvey, editor
OF The North American Review, who
has just declared that-while twenty
five presidents of the United States
were men of more or less varying de-
grees of fitness for the high positions
they occupied-'Roosevel was the
first president whose chief personal
characteristic was mendacity, the first
to glory in duplicity, the first braggart,
the first bully, the first betrayer of a
friend who ever occupied the White
House."
Theer Is no escape from any part of
this plain Characterization. The truth
has been told in chosen words.

That our governmental machinery in
state and nation has fallen far short
of the ideal requirements Of repre-
sentative government is, unfortunate
ly, only too true. Nevertheless, the
degree of its shortcoming in relation
to the great questions Of public well
fare with which the progressive pro-
gramme is concerned may easily be
vastly exaggerated; and, furthermore,
there exists a widespread confusion
of thought concerning the nature and
origin Of it's defects.
