people. Now l don't think it is true.
| think I am as sympathetic with the
common people, as earnestly DESTROYS
of their happiness, as anxious to see
that they have justice, as any one.
| believe most profoundly hat pop
ular government is the best govern
ment, and l am greatly concerned
that it shall continue and be success
full in giving to the people at large
the surest measure of individual liber-
ty on the one hand and the greatest
practical efficiency in government on
the other hand. 1t may be that / n
my earnest desire to make govern
ment efficient | have not always ex-
planned that l believed that to make
government efficient is to work d.
rectly in the interest of the common
people.
My administration has come and
gone in a period of unrest and again
for something intangible which it Is
difficult definitely to describe. We
have lived during the last four years
and are living now in an atmosphere
of strenuous denunciations of certain
evils and loud aspirations for an
ideal state in which the common
people are to become happier. the
poo and the oppressed are to ac-
Quire property and cease suffering,
and much or all of the change is to
of government.
The accusation of swollen fortunes
during the two decades preceding and
many of them by violation of the
antitrust law, or the anti-rebate law,
aroused Il feeling of just Indignation
and set the tune to public addresses,
DenunCiations of the malefactors OF
wealth and promises of rectifying
such inequalities by governmental
means rang pleasantly in the ears of
the people. They made for the pop
ularity of those who produced the
sweet tunes assuring better cOndi-
tons and a complete social reform,
all by the means of elections and
governmental action.
Interest in the Poor.
Then, too. in the material improve
,nent in the large mount of wealth
devoted now to education and philan-
thropy there has beer aroused a
most commendahle interest in tn,

enthusiastic do social workers be-

proportion and forget the interest O.

of the government into plans for the
ameliorat!on of the particular de.
pendents whom they have under theil
observation becomes eXigent, and they
look to government as an instrument
Tor immediate relief. Now l am sorry
to say that l have had so much to d,
with actual government in the Phil
ippincs and in Washington that
cannot join in the glowing promis
that governmental action can remed
all of the evils of poverty, diseas
and ignorance as set forth in tn

Popular Government.

"A popular government is a gov
majority of the people who under the
law are given the right to exercise
the electoral franchise and conStitu-
tionaI limitations are imposed to pre-
vent the misuse of the power of the
majority, so that the individual or the
minority may not suffer injustice
through the action of the majority.
Where is the security in the present
society that the majority may not
from time to time do injustice to the
minority and to the individual?
1T is said that we distrust the peo-
pie If we assume that the majority
will ever do injustice. In other words,
the contention is that the vote Of the
majority is always right. Well, as
the majority in passing upon a ques-
ton determines sometimes one way
and sometimes another, in which Is it
right?
Wisdom of Il fathers and of the
long line of able men who have fought
for popular government has led to the
Introduction into every scheme of
government of restraints to prevent
injustice by the majority to the min
orlty and the individual. What is
there that has happened in recent
years to make us feel that a change

'sThe drinking of men and women together In

causes Of immortality"
The above utterance was made
last week by it's president at the
meeting in Minneapolis of the
International Purity Congress,
and directs public attention to a
practice which is far too common
in the great cities, in the palatial
restaurants frequented by the
rich and fashionable. This
editor has seen so much of it in
travelling round that we are at
times almost dlsgusted with the
conditions of city life. May the

percent payment. This bank
