increase its service in every way possible, and this Is
one OF tie features which wifi be tried out,
Baseball is the great American game and all are

contest between the winners Of the two, big leagues
for the worlds championship is 4 worlds item and

One often hears the term, "Materialism, s used in
a depreciative sense. Thus the present age is de.
scribed by certain sentimental Missionaries, as a mate.

The MOBILES and his4brows of Europe sneer, at Anaerica

princes, mobiles and otler worsirpers Of idealisln,
mysticism and what-not flock to our shores to see II
they cannot CAPTURE an american helress. IN spite

The Democratic Scorer Caucus

Representative. Anderson of Minnesota recently
resigned from the important committee on ways and
means, on the; ground that the republican and pro-
gressiye members, of that committee have absolutely
nc, voice. in. it's proceedings. A few years, ago much
was said. and written about the evils OF Cannonisma.
Speaker Cannon did rule in an arbitrary manner and
it was we'll that he was shorn of his czar-like prerog-
atives. It is generally conceded that he, had too
much power. But the democratic way Of framing
bills in Secret caucus and then using "steam. roller"
methods to, force, them through congress is just as
reprehensible. Even democratic members have ties.
titled. to the iniQuity Of the secret caucus system. Let
US see how it, works. Quoting from Representative
Cooper Of Wisconsin: .,aa: IN.
Suppose there were altogether only 100 members
in this. house, ST. democrats, and 40 republicans. The
81 democrats enter a caucus, the majority Of which
is &c, the minority rs. The 26 then demand certain
legislation. which. the rs. firmly believe would be
wrong, believe would be harmful, and yet under the
caucus rule the &c make the Is vote as the 26 vote,
and tlusr the 28 come into the house controlling 81
votes, enough to pass any bill"
In other words legislating by means Of the secret
caucus is simply the vicious system of legislating by
a minority. This is contrary to the fundamental
principles of Thomas Jefferson's political philosophy.
Absolute acQuiescence," wrote Thomas; Jefferson, lin
the decision of the majority is the vital, principle of
republics-from which there is no appeal, hut to force,
the vital principle and immediate parent Of despot.
ISM Thus we see democracy repudiating one of the
doctrines in the cherished political creed of it's
founder. 81

A Public LibrQru an Educational Need

Unless the reading habit is acquired in childhood,
1t is rarely acquired in later life. In order that the
growing generation shall develop into intelligent cit
izenship it is essential therefore that the pupils, in
our schools should have access to the best books
not only the famboyant novel, which, is usually. want
ing In literary merit and interests the youth only
on account of the ridiculous predicament. of the hero
and heroine-but especially writer's who are recog-
nized masters of style. Juvenile books are especially
needed. Unless the small boy can obtain such dc,
lghtful books as Stevenson's Treasure Island or
Whites "The Blazed Trail he will invest his nickels
and dimes in yellow novels. The libraries In our
schools are inadequate to meet the needs OF the chill
dren. They are maintained principally for refernce
purposes. And libraries in the homes Of the pupils
are the exceptions and not the rule. ~ .atzsr
The only way to solve, this p~roblem-and it is a
serious problems by establishing a public library.
Bismarck needs such a library TO. meet the needs OF
her adult population. but especially to meet the edu-
cational requirements Of her boys and girls. A library
is an educational necessity. In fact, the public IL
braries as a factor in the educational system of our
country are on a par with the schools and colleges.
AT present. the only place where books can be
obtained is at the capitol, from the public library COM
mission. Every day boys and girls flock into the
library commission Offices to get books. The secre-
tary of the commission states that they are literally
hungry to read. But the law creating the state public
library commission gives it neither authority nor
funds to maintain a local library. Consequently, it
can have very few children's books for local circula.
ton. The travelling, libraries are in. fixed collections
and the demand for them IS SO great that practically
