formed and effected by open debate
upon the floor. Almost all Of it is
discussed in committee rooms, and
passed without debate. Bills that
the machine an dts hackers do not
desire, are smothered in committee;
measures which they do desire are
brought out and hurried through
their passage. It happens again
and again, that great groups of such
Oils are rushed through in the hur-
ried hours, that mark the close Of
the legislative sessions, when every
one is withheld from vigilance by
fatigue, and when il. is possible to
do secret things.
When we stand in the presence
of these things, and see how COM
plete and sinister their operation: haA
been, we cry out with no little truth,
that we no longer have representa-
tive government.
In late years, the government has
frequently been called upon to take
part in quelling strikes, that are the
manifestations of a revolutionary
spirit in the industrial field. Presi-
dent Wilson realizes that there are
three parties interested in a strike
the government, the employer, and
tine employee, and it ais apparent
that he intends, that justice shall be
done between the employer and the
employee, and that the rights of the
public shall be protected. Any
other policy would, in a short time,
lead to revolution. Those who as
sumo the control of the great indus
trial interests have a terrible re-
sponsibility resting on their shoul-
ders. ~
Several years ago, there was a
strike in England. There was in
consequence a sympathetic strike in
New Zealand, which was distant
about 1900 miles from England. A.
ter the employees and their families
were almost reduced to a state Of
starvation, and after infiicting great
financial loss on their employers,
they surrendered. There were men
-, on both sides in that strike, who de-
termined, if possible, to prevent a
like recurrence of distress and f.
nancial loss. The victors instead Of
gloating over their victory, went to
the employees and expressed their
deep sympathy, and suggested that
they agree upon a plan, that would
do justice to all parties concerned.
The employees entered into the
spirit of the suggestion. 1he par,
ties agreed upon 8 man for Cover
nor, whose ability and ideas Of JUS
tice to all, was above reproach or
suspicion.
The ablest men and those who
] were non-partisan, were elected as
, representatives. They realized
that in all strikes there are three in
terested parties, the employer, the
employee and the State. The en-
ployer has an interest in the bust
ness, on account of the profits; the
employee, in order that he might
make a support for himself and fam
lily, and the State, in order that the
health morals, education, finances
and general welfare of its citizens,
might be protected. 1t was made
the law of the land, that the amount
of compensation to be awarded the

self mastery, as we'll as the power
% master their servants, and to see
that the right kind of man is behind
the laws.
Constitutional limitations r
adopted as much for the protection
IF the rights of the minority, as of
the majority, and likewise to pro-
tect the people against their W
action, until they have had time to
give due elaboration to any sug-
gested changes, in the organic law.
The training of the lawyer makes
his cooperation especially valuable,
in explaining to the people the eff
feet of suggested changes, and in
providing efficient remedies for the
evils that confront us.
Public opinion in the United
States was never better informed.
never more intelligent, never more
eager to make itself felt in the con-
troll of government for the better
ment of the nation, and yet it was
never more helpless to obtain its
purpose by ordinary methods. In
order to assert its right to represen-
tative government, free from the
control and influence of the inter-
ests, it has to resort to convulsive,
agitated, almost revolutionary means
to have its way. It knows what
it wants. 1t wants good men in
office, sensible laws adjusted to ex-
listing conditions. conscience in af-
fairs, and intelligence in their ad-
ministration. But it is at a loss
how to get these. 1t filings itself
this way and that, frightens this
group of politicians, hopes, protests,
demands but can not govern.
Men sometimes talk as if it we're
wealth of which we were afraid, as
if we were jealous of the accumu-
lation of great fortunes. But such
is not the case. The people have
not the slightest jealousy of the le-
gitimate accumulation of wealth.
Everybody knows that there are
many men of large means and large
economic power, who have gained it
not only by legitimate methods, but
in a way that deserves the thanks
and admiration of the communities
/ they have served and developed. But
everybody knows, also, that some of
the men who control the wealth, and
have built up the industry of the
country seek to control politics and
also to dominate the life of COM
mon men, in a way in which no man
should be permitted to dominate
In the first place, there is the no.
torious operation of the bipartisan
political machine, which does not
represent party principle of any
kind, but which is willing to enter
into any combination, with whatever
group of persons or of politicians, to
control the Offices of localities and
of states and of the nation itself, in
order to maintain the power of those
who direct it. This machine is sup
piled with it's funds, by the men who
use it, in order to protect them
selves against legislation which. they
do not desire, and in order to obtain
the legislation which is necessary
for the prosecution of their unlawful
purposes.
The methods of our legislatures
make the operations of such ma
e.hines easy and convenient. For

lifting or depressing the life Of the
whole country.
They must regard themselves as
representatives of a public mind.
There can be no reasonable jealousy
of public regulation in such matters,
because the opportunities of all men
are affected. Their property is
everywhere touched, their savings
are everywhere absorbed, their m
ployment is everywhere determined,
by these great agencies. WHAT we
need therefore, is to come to a COM
mon view which will not bring an
tagonism, but accommodations. The
programmes of parties must now be
programmes of enlightenment and
readjustment, not revolutionary but
restorative. The processes of
change are largely processes of
thought, but unhappily they cannot
be effected without becoming po-
litical processes also, and that is the
deep responsibility of public men.
What we need, therefore, in our
politics, is an instant alignment of
all men free and willing to think and
to acG without fear upon their
thought"
We will state a few reasons why
the people will not get relief from
direct legislation, whether by the
initiative or referendum.
The trouble with unorganized
action lies in the fact, that it is in
evitably spasmodic and intermit-
tent.
The people grow tired of direct
legislation, when the novelty has
worn off.
The laws do not represent the
whole electorate, but that part of the
voters which impelled either by pub
lie or private motives, takes an in
terest in the affairs of State.
In one of the cantons of Switzer-
land, a serious attempt was made
some years ago, to ameliorate the
force of this objection to the refer
endum, by imposing a fine upon
every voter, who failed to appear at
the polls.
The polled vote increased as a re-
cult; but the real aim of the law
was not achieved, for many Of the
voters who came to the polls, under
the spur of this compulsion, rem
dered perfunctory performance, by
dropping blank ballots into the box.
Ours is a government of laws, but
every one should keep always be-
fore him the fact, that no law is eff
fective. unless there is the right
kind of man behind it. In tropical
America, there are many republics
whose constitutions and laws are
practically identical with ours, yet
some of them have throughout their
governmental career, alternated be-
tween .despotism and anarchy, and
nave failed in striking fashion at
every point, where under like con-
d~itions, We have succeeded.
The difference was not in the laws
or the institutions, for they were the
same. The difference was in the
men who made up the community
in the men who administered the
laws, and in the men who put ir
power the administrators. It j.
intended, with US, that the people
shall be the masters, and one of the
vital needs, Is, that they, shall show

OBJECTS TO WOMEN WEEPING
Writer Has No Use for Old Saying
Which Declares It to Be One
Of Natures Laws.

Men hate weepy woman, and you
can't blame them for hating her. writes
Mary M. Maxwell The thing for
which they are to blame is that they
have not discouraged weeping by
making it well known that they are
reasonable and reasoning beings and
that they take 1t for granted that
their wives are also of this order. OF
all the quotations that make me angry
l think that one which declares that
men must work and women must
weep" affects my temper most. Why
must women weep, should like to
know? Once let an engaged man give
his fiancee to understand that weeping
does not appeal to him; once let hus-
band explain to his wife that weeping
not only calls out the very devil in
him, but makes her look positive
fright-leading her gently to mirror
and showing her weeping self up in
all its sickening ugliness, and we
should get rid Of good many tears
or, rather. we should not get rid Of
them, but prevent their showing
themselves.
Men have for many thousands Of
years been telling women 1t Is their
part to weep. and until recently WON.
en- have not known any better than to
believe them. Men have told women
u great many other foolish things
which have been destructive to friend
ship between husbands and wives.
Men have given women to understand
that they (women In generaD are
.latural invalids. Women are no more
natural invalids than are men, but II
you keep telling woman she Is an
invalid, that she is "frail," you can
make her believe 1t against her own
inward knowledge that she is as sound
as bell.
