A bishop denounced the modern apart
ment house the other day. He called
it a tragedy He saw in 1t q menace to

The apartment house does not offer this
separateness. and hence is a danger.
The denunciation Of the apartment house

Waste Paper.

It is no idle jest of the cartooner and

the Homecoming vacationists find their

the sober truth to say that this litter is
literally just so much waste paper. either
swept out to clutter the streets or saved
only to light the fires. The chief asset
of the ragpicker and street cleaner is the
casual circular. 1t is prohibited nui-

Where the Suffragists Blundered.
the New York World

From the New York World
OF the forty-two amendments to the
state constitution the Ohio voters singled
out the woman suffrage amendment for
defeat. 1t was overwhelmingly beaten,
while the initiative and referendum. liquor
license and labor proposals were carried.
The benefits to be derived from Mr..
Roosevelts belated championship of votes
for women proved wholly imaginary. If
the suffragists profit by their experience
in Ohio they will realize the unwisdom OF
identifying their cause with the personal
ambitions of the third-term candidate. He
has made a politicians bid for the sup
port Of the woman voters of the six suf-
frage states in the west, to none OF whom
he lent a word Of encouragement when
they most needed help. They won the
fight by themselves by concentrating all
their efforts on the one issue of equal
political rights and keeping out Of party
politics.

Senator Knute Nelson.

Senator Knute Nelson is the nomi-
nee of the Republican party for Uni
ted States senator from Minnesota to
succeed himself. He met with con-
siderable opposition in the primaries
yet was able to overcome that op-
position and will undoubtedly be
elected in the general election. Sen
ator Nelson's record is one on which
any man could stand and be proud.
1t covers many years of active SER
vice in the national law making
body-service which was for the peo-
pie and of the country as whole.
Senator Nelson is no longer Mime
sofa man only but citizen of the
United States. This state cannot af-
ford to lose his services at this

as if the resources Of the country
were limited. Every dollar Of ex-i.
penditure ought to mean something
done or provided for the people.
Waste is also weakness Inefficiency
brings confusion.
ssIt is part of the new meaning of
government. therefore, that it's re-.
sources are not to be put at the dis
posal of governing class or of any
limited set of governing influences,
but that those who exercise its au-
thority must keep house for the
whole people; must use the money
raised by taxes as if it were expended
in trust to produce the. best possible
results in the ordering and stimula-
ton of our life.
at is an interesting circumstance
that government is becoming less
and less a business for politicians;
that minds and energies of every
kind are turning towards it as part
of the general enterprise of life.
The reason we want our government
to be free from every kind of private
or narrow control is that we want
to have it see more things than it
would see if it served only few.
Those who conduct it ought to have
the vision of the nation Itself
| ought to be sensitive to impulses
from every quarter. The statesman
should sit down with the philan-
thopist, with the engineer, with the
forest expert, with the student of
souls and agricultural methods, with
masters of technical and vocational
education as we'll as with fianciers
and lawyers and manufacturers and
| merchants and those whose interests
have usually been at the center of
policy. Though he cannot himself
! keep the life Of the nation as a
whole in his mind, he can at least
make sure that he is taking counsel
with those who know, that his SYM
pathies may be open on every side,
and that he may seek to serve civili-
cation and humanity, not party or
any selfish program"

city hall last evening to hear the
second Bemidji concert of the Halo
we'll company and each one present
went away satisfied regretting only
that the Hallowells do not come Of
tener Opening the concert with
Schubert's ."Marche Militaire'', the
company played such overtures as
civilian Tell'' and Pilgrims chorus
from "Tannhauser" popular rag
time such as ION Moonlight Bay" and
"Gaby, Gaby Glide; and solos, duets
and trios by the different members.
J. Lester Haberkorn, baritone, open
ed with "The Clang of the Forge"
and sang Marvellous Braes are
are Bonny" for one of his encores.
All of his songs were we'll received
and he was called back again and
again. The company had mapped
out concert of about one hour and
a half but the enthusiasm of the
audience was such that the encores
lengthended the time to over two
hours: The company has been re-
organized since last spring and the
concert last night was the eighth out
of Chicago. New men have been
added and Mrs. Hallowell has also
blossomed out asa kettle drum artist.
Financially, the expenses ate up all
of the income so that the church
made nothing. Whether 1t played
classical airs, old fashioned songs, or
modren rag time, the company was
good. Those who attended last
night will go again when the COM
