How Much Is Now Left Of the Bal.
tlmore Platform?
The President had boldly signed the
Pork River and Harbor bill, and his
facile pen is dripping with ink eager
to attach itself to . Pork Public
Buildings bill.
The friendliest apologists OF the
Presidents part in the profiigats
waste Of money wrung from the peo-
pie by oppressive taxation have moth
ing better to say for him than that
IL Is hardly fair to expect a man to
say 81 Forbid" in this Presidential
year when he is a candidate.
The foregoing words describing the
profigate waste Of the peoples money
with Executive approval are taken
without change from a plank Of the
platform on which Woodrow Wilson
was elected In 1912:
I'VE denounce the profigate waste
OF money wrung from the people by
oppressive taxation through the
lavish appropriations of recent Re-
publican Congresses, which have
kept taxes high and reduced the
purchasing power of the peoples
toll We demand a return to that
simplicity and economy which be-
Ats a democratic government"
How much is now left Of the prin.
ciples declared and the promises reg.
istered at Baltimore as inducements
to citizens to vote for Wilson.
Possibly II Is because he and his
party have been such reckless. such
wholesale regulators Of the pledges
OF 1912 that few people remember or
care to remember what pledges were
made in his behalf about forty days
ago at ST. Louis.-New York Sun.

famine-stricken, overwhelmed
with the woes and outrages Of
internecine strife. the helpless

which the course Of the Admin

serving good will by sincerity.
firmness, and consistency. we
provoked misrepresentation and
deep resentment In the light
OF the conduct OF the Admin
istration no one could under
stand its professions. Decrying
interference, we interfered most
exasperatingly. We have not
even kept out Of actual con-
fict, and the soil OF Mexico is
stained with the blood Of our
soldiers. We have resorted to
physical invasion. only to retire
without gaining the protested
object. 1t is a record which

How ls.p Year Started.

Hampson In his "Medii 0Evl. Ka.
landarium" quotes the following quaint
tradition from an old Saxon treatise:
"Some assert that the bissextus or leap
day comes through this. that Joshua
prayed to God that the sun might
stand still for one days length that he
might sweep the heather from the
land that God had granted him and his
followers. 1t Is true that the sun did
stand still for one days length over
the city Of Gebaon, but the day went
forward In the same manner as other
days. And the bissextus Is not through
that, as some do think"
In France and some parts Of Spain
and Portugal there exists tradition
known as "the ghost Of leap year."
Believers IN this say that a marvellous
monster annually appears on leap day
and disarranges human affairs for the
remainder Of the year.

Danced In Court.

An unusual scene was once witness
cd In a French law court. the civil
tribunal at Nantes. The proprietor OF
local theater had engaged young
lady dancer, whose performances at
rehearsals did not come up to his ex.
pectations. He therefore would not
let her appear. and the fair dancer
took action against him for breach Of
contract The defendant alleged that
she had not even learned the FIRST steps
Of her art, and, here being plain issue,
the judge determined to decide for
himself. A space was accordingly
forthwith cleared on the door OF the
court, and In these unusual surround.
ings the young lady duly went through
her steps and pfrouettings. In the re-
suit the Judge felt justified In certify.
ing that she was quite an expert dan.
Ger and decided the case In her favor
Henceforth she advertised herself rs
the only dancer in the country with
legal certificate OF proficiency.
