THE BARREL-ORGAN

There's a barrelorgan caroing golden street
In the city the sets low;
fulfilled it with the sunset glow;
And pulses through the pleasures of the city and the
That surround the singing organ like large eternal
light;
And they've given it glory and part to play again
In the symphony that rules the day and night
And now marching onward through the
And trolling fond familiar tune,
And now roaring down to fight the King of
France,
And now it's prattling softly to the
And all around organ there's set without shore
OF human joys and wonders and regrets;
To remember recompense the music evermore
For what the cold machinery forgets.

Can We Still Be Christians?"

Can We Still Be Christians, by Rudolph
Eucken, Phi. D., The Macmillan Company, ST.
This is the modest announcement of one of
the epoch making books of modern religious
thought.
If the almost unanimous verdict of scholars
and students the world over is to be trusted,
Rudolph Eucken shares with Henri Bergson the
pre-emnence of being the greatest thinker Of
the age. For years his class room in the Univer-
sity of Jena has been the Mecca of European
scholars 1t is significant of the present day
ferment and conflict of opinions that he has as a
fellow teacher in the great school, Ernest Hack
el who differs from him by almost the whole
diameter of thought.
Professor Eucken is one of the few living
thinkers who is at home in all realms. His mas
terry of philosophy is astonishing as his Problem
of Human Life goes to show. That volume Git
has now sold more than 10000 copies) is pro-
found analysis of philosophic thought from the
ancient Hellenic thinkers to own day. 1t is
no mere stringing together of the various phos-
ophies, but is itself an organic whole of thought
which has taken all the varieties of doctrine into
itself. The writing of such book demanded a
mind seldom granted to the world.
Among the sciences, he is also at home His
main Current of Modern Thought reveals this
and shows he is no academic closet philosopher
coming over stale tones, but man alive to his
own day and able to wreste with it's problems.
Eucken's chief interest has always been re-
ligion, subject in which the courage and power
of his mind have had free play. It is this which
gives to his most recent volume its significance
"Can We Still Be Christians?" Eucken says
we can and his answer, coming from man who
has so completely mastered the whole of modern
culture, makes scrap paper of entire libraries of
easy books written by our up-to-date, but very
superficial critics who Danish religion from the
universe without first having taken the trouble
to discover what it is.

How Progressives Differ

The important thing about the Progressive
PARTY of Indiana, the convention OF wh1ch Is ho"
under way in Indianapolis, is not VINO may NC
chosen as candidates for the various OFFICES or
how the party machinery is running or VIM ooe'
the Grating; the important thing is tnat tne ~
pressives stand for principle which differs en-
tirelv from those supported by the other TWO
great parties.
According to it's Interpretation, the aim OF ma
tional politics is to enable the people OF the coun-
trv so to use their own abilities and the resources
of the land as to achieve the highest degree OF
national efficiency.
The aim of Indiana politics. it believes, should
be to enable the people of Indiana, so lar as II
may be realized through the enactment inter-
probation and enforcement OF laws, to develop
their natural resources and themselves TO tne
utmost of their possibilities.
All forms of political administration and OF
ownership and control of the resources of life are
for this purpose. They are right and just IN so
far as they contribute to the efficiency OF the
neonle Thew are wrong in so far they mill
tate against that
At the root of the Progressive philosophy Is
the conviction that the country belongs to the
people as a whole and must be owned and man
aged in such form as to enable them to make
themselves the healthiest happiest, ablest anc
most prosperous possible.
Where it has been found that the organlza
ton of given industry into small units and I'M
der private ownership management most con
duces to industrial efficiency, the Progressive!
are for private competition the Democrats are
Where it has been found that the organlza
ton of any industry into large units under cor
porate management or ownership is best sultet
to serve the needs of the people, the Progressive
are in favor of big business as Republicans are.
But the Progressive party differs from botl
the Republican and Democratic parties IN this
that it does not sell itself out to any one doctrin
Of ownership or control of industry. Where tn
Democratic party is surrendered to the doctrln
that ownership and control of business under an
and all circumstances must be private and com
petitive; where the Republican Party says tina
any and all business may become trustified, If 1t
promoters find it to their private interests
the Progressive Party does not shut itself GU
from either alternative but believes in small bus
mess units under private competition where tina
brings the best results to the people and tn
large combines of business where that is foun
most efficient.
The merging of this political philosophy wit
that advocated by the Democrats and Republ
cans is not possibility: it is an absurdity.

The result OF the election in Petersburg
Yesterday brought surprise to both
sides The Self-Govcrnment League
anu ITS friends were confident OF a ma
tority in the city. and this was procti-
caiiN conceded by the prohibitionists. In
the local option election several years
ago, the local optionists carried the city
by II majority Of SIS. Yesterday they
lost it by an adverse majority of 1876
This result showed two things: The
prohibition league had, Il more perfect
organization than the opposition; and
the quiet unknown vote went with
state wide ticket. The total vote of
the city was 2.122, or approximately 800
less than the aggregate qualified vote
