A Bio Nation With Big Problems.

Springfield Republican: The federal
census bureau estimated that there are
l02 ,S26, 1903 people in this country,
10. 437 ,953 in Uncle Sans Quilting
possessions, and IS, 1913 in military and
naval service abroad, This makes a
grand total of 5000, 2S5, but what
most concerns us are the 1902, S26, 300 at
home. for they constitute and direct the
United States. Ours is big country,
with big problems Of democracy. Per
haps we are entering the most danger
GUS period in our national life, and as
we grow in population may we grow in
the mastery of our destiny as a free
people.

a Truly National Party.

Ellis B. Usher: If he Mr. Wilson
is big enough and the Democrats are
are big enough there is future for the
party that makes itself the prophet or
the broad country west Of the Alleghan-
les. and that can grasp such facts as
that the center Of population has been
west of the Alleghanies for sixty years.
and that San Francisco comes nearer
being the central city Of the United
States than any other. Such party
can not be built, Or made to live, upon
such issues as those Of the past twenty
years, which have been chiefly smatters
of administrative detail. Conservation,
for example, may interest few good
people, but it involves no vital
principles Of government. The new
party must be truly national party
one with a broad vision of the world
beyond our doorsteps, one that, looking
from the great Mississippi inter noun
tain valley across the seven seas, .both
east and west, is capable Of leading this
country in career of peaceful con-
quest Whenever our politics again
rise above the prices Of eggs, the pro-
phet who leads the way will have some
such vision. We have had sectional
government for the past halfl century,
Something broader is a necessity OF
future growth. II no prophet can De
found the west will again be sent back
to serve the east, and to do pennance
for another generation. If that should
be it's fate, no one ought to blame the
east. A great opportunity is now open.
IF the west fails and let's the east con :
tinue to designate governors and con-
gressmen for the west, none but
western men should be blamed for such
apostasy. Few now care for party
names but it would be N piring to
have some knight come forth out OF the
west who could cast fractional politics
to the pens where they breed, and give
to us national and international leader
ship.

IT'S n real Joy after all-this up-to-

bride of a year or two to the friend
who was paying a duty call. The
sherbet you're eating is month old"
The visitor unconsciously delayed
an ascending spoonful.
Don't be worried" smiled the
bride, "the ice is all right. I've kept
them longer than that. You see, my
last afternoon 'at-home' came on a
rainy day, and had a distressing
number Of ices left over. Now, If
that had happened in a house with
only an ice-chest, all Of the refresh
ments would have gone to waste. The
caterer wouldn't have taken any OF
them back. But. you see, every
