at Weimer in 1861, and slain at Mann
helm in 1919, was one of the great men
of his time. He 10 among the most
celebrated of German dramatists, and
his originality is attested by the fact
that his works have been mine for
later writer's of all nations. He wrote
200 tragedies, dramas and farces, and
most of them were successful during
his lifetime. His best-known work is
"The Stranger" which, 80 years ago,
was as popular and famous in the
United States as it was in Germany.
He also wrote successful novels, and
a remarkable satire, In which he took
fall out of Goethe and Schiller, who
had declined to admit him to their So
ciety.
Kotzebue was trifle too fond of
satire. When displeased with any per-
son or cause, he was wont to hold the
same up to public ridicule. This weak
ness led to his tragic death. His life
was adventurous Much of ii was
spent in the service of Russia, and
once he was banished to Siberia, but
was recalled year or two later by
Emperor Paul, who squared things by
giving him a fine estate. His later
years We're spent at Mannheim. where
he was employed as correspondent by
he Russian government. reporting
Ipon matters literary, artistic and in
:ellectual. In these days such a post
would be considered honorable, but at
hat time many people believed he was

mood he found much amusement in

On March %, 1919, the indications

congenial employment, and his genius
was being generally recognized. On
the afternoon of that day he went into
the town on an errand, and when he
returned to his home II maid told him
that a young man had called to see
him, and promised TO call again. Half
an hour later the young man returned,

The best thing to use is just

thing else all to pieces. Yot can

There are. however, yet other
seers that in frances of some
thing of the kind have beheld
the progressive convention prop
erly engaged in platform making.
and also the result thereof.
These point out that In the
present rather peculiar condi-
lions to build an elaborate plat
form Of many planks and many
demands, raising many issues,
would be unwise and needless.
The thing to do is to sound a
rafting, good, strong keynote,
and then help 1t out with enough
other things to make a showing
but not enough to do any harm.
What keynote then?
PATRIOTISM
That's the stuff, and there's
nothing better-at least in most
districts that count.
Tho progressive platform. 1t is
predicted, will be a humdirger
and one of the hottest utterances
on this subject ever known to
man.
1t will proclaim in clarion tones
q stalwart and uncomfortable
Americanism.
The democratic administration
will be flayed inch by inch, then
skinned with scalpels for It's fail
ure to uphold American honor,
defend the integrity of the nation
and protect American citizens.
The presidents faoile typewrit-

essays while Americans are being
murdered will be knowingly de-
nounced.

Next, how about the platform
of the progressivesY
Their party is to meet in con-
vention in Chicago at the same
time the republicans meet, and
no party convention is usually
held to be according to Hoyle and
tho best dope sheets that doesn't
adorn itself with a platform.
1t will lack humor, and that's
fatal.
Nevertheless, I find some pro-
gressives that say it will not be
in this instance necessary.
They say the job of hammer
forging this particular joke will
be taken out of their hands.
They say that when the repub-
lican convention meets 1t will,
with one long, glad shout, pro-
coed to nominate for president
Theodore Roosevelt, whereuorn,
as at a word the avalanche
rushes down the mountain side,
so the progressive convention will
rush upon the republican conven-
ton, fall upon its neck, and with
yelling tears of unspeakable Joy
welcome home its long lost
brother.
Roosevelt will be platform
enough for all of us, say
these; platform and party

Patriotism and Suffrage But
No HuInOr In Moose Platform

Mexico will get the brunt of all
this but Germany will not be over
looked, and this part of the plat
form will seethe and bubble.
The demand will be that
the fair name of America,
dishOnored around the world
by timid and incompetent
administration, shall be pol.
ished up by one that knows.
We name no names; we
merely say, by one that
knows.
/ am assured positively that
nothing in the platform will give
offense to the most sensitive of
old line republicans, but the mart
gin will be richly fringed wittl
olive branches, and a party dove
of peace will appear between each
paragraph.
There will be good sound
plank about tariff protection to
American industry and others
sternly arraigning the democrats
for their reckless destruction of
national prosperity, their extrav-
agance, incompetence, failure to
reduce the cost of living, and
callous refusal to carry out their
pledges.
Much will be made of this. It's
dead safe play, the progressives
never having been in power them
selves.
AS to the program of social re-
forms put forth by the party in
1912, that will be handled by
general paragraph. declaring that
the progressiyes stand now exact
ly as they stood then-which
again is wise, safe dope.
BUT THERE WILL BE A
STRAIGHT OUT WOMAN SUF-
FRAGE PLANK.
