CHEESEMAN'S political life depends large
~ on standing in with the president.
The chief executive from the very
foundations of the government has
played politics from his office. The
greatest politician who ever filled the
presidents chair was Jackson, he of
patriotic fame among the Demo-
Gratis. The incompetency of the union

are also manifestations of similar ex
cessive action. The fundamental cause
in both is excessive physical or ncrv.
u energy.
Max Nordau. in his book on DE.
generacy." holds that Psychologists are
failing in their duty when they are
unwilling to say that men of genius
are insane. He says that phychiatr,
should not be closed within a anc
to show the degeneracy Of many ar.
fists and teach them that their works
are written in delirium. In all othe.
branches hygiene is of more import
ance than therapeutics. The only thing
in which we fail to concern ourselves
is the hygiene of the mind. Such
men as a Maudsley. in England, and
Lombroso. in Italy, are fearless and
are doing a great work.
Lombroso believes that insanity and
genius are wonderfully close akin, the
to tell where and when it takes place,
He avs that in the sanest and mos,
complete genius we find incomplete
inc rudimentary forms of mania such
as melancholy, magalomania. hallu.
.cination. etc. The whole difference
lies that in the same genius the symp.
toms are less exaggerated. the double
IS Tess conspicuous. and
the note of a%bsurdity less emphatic.
Shakespeare. Daudet and Goncourt
are examples OF this more normal
type. Taking everything into con.
sideration. genius is a true degener-
alive p%sychosis belonging to the group
OF moral insanity and may bring out
other abnormalities. The frequency
Ct genius among lunatics and of mad
men among genius explains the fact
that the destiny of nations is often
in the hands of the insane"

vestigations shows that the most fool
