FROM a careful perusal of the papers nowadays it is easily seen that T. R. and his third party movement is causing both the old parties considerable anxiety. While they belittle the movement edito- rially, the news columns tell the story and cannot be suppressed.

Dangerous Advice

Beat your wife, and if she proves unfaithful to you, kill her, :" is the simple and concise platform laid down for the handling of pres ent day spouses by William F. Waugh, who contributes this advice to "The Alienist and Neurologist. :" The expert believes that we should go back to the principles of the cave man; invade, for instance, the home of our beloved, gingerbread man. sion on Fifth avenue, where she en- joys the luxuries provided by her multi-millionaire father; grasp her firmly by the hair of the head as she sits combing the former in her pink and gold boudoir, drag her down five flights of stairs to the street, throw her over our shoulder and beat it to the primeval seclu- sion of our rugged cavern on the sixteenth floor of flat building.
 We fear that Dr. Waugh may start something that he can't stop. His advice in full is as follows:
 When you find your mate, take her. She awaits marriage.
 When you have her, live for her. She wants that.
 When she arouses your jealousy, beat her. She expects such treat ment.
 When she has betrayed you, kill her.
 These are four maxims which govern man in relations with his wife.
 There is constantly thickening coat of the varnish of civilization formed over the man and the wo- man, but underneath they are iden- tical with the cave man and woman, unchanged at heart. The simple maxims that ruled the cave dweller govern humanity today.
 Every woman sits and waits the coming of her lord. She is ready to follow when he beckons. He is masterful. He woos not, beseeches not, implores not, serves not. He takes his own when he finds it.
 His ancestor caught his woman, knocked her down if she resisted and dragged her, none too gently, to his lair.
 The nearer the modern approxi- mates this type and method the better it suits the woman.
 Some women require beating. Lacking it, they escape from the

THEN AND NOW

This is what Governor Wilson said in his commencement address at Princeton in 1900:
 You know what the usual stand ard of the employe is in our day. It is to give as little as he may for his wages. Labor is standardized by trades unions, and this is the standard to which it is made to conform. No one is suffered to do more than the average workman can do; in some trades and handi- crafts no one is suffered to do more than the least skillful of his fellows can within the hours allotted to a days labor, and no one may work out of hours at all or volunteer any thing beyond the minimum. l need not point out how economically disastrous such a regulation of labor is. It is so unproftable to the employer that in some trades it will presently not be worth W hile to attempt anything at all. He had better stop altogether than operate at an inevitable and invariable loss. The labor of America is rapidly be- coming improbable under its pres ent regulation by those who have determined to reduce it to a mini mum. Our economic supremacy may be lost because the country grows more and more full of un- profitable servants"
 And this is what Governor Will son said in his letter of acceptance. Wilson was not looking for the support of organized labor in 1900; but he IS trying to get the union labor vote in 1912. This accounts for the governors pretended change of heart:
 The so-called labor question is a question only because we have not yet found the rule of right in adjusting the interests of labor and capital. Here, again, the sense of universal partnership must come into play if we are to act like statesmen, as those who serve, not a class, but a nation.
