FEEDING LIBERTY'S FLAME.

Berlin newspapers indicate that the spirit of democracy has teen stimu- lated in Germany thru the sterlins notes of our president at various times. especially the state papers of the last few months.
 The ession of the reichstag to con vene September 26 will find the same coalition of the Contrist and Social Democrats which caused the cabinet crisis of last July.
 The ideal of liberal-minded men in Germany seems to be that the kaiser and his ministers should be stripped of certain of their prerogatives. Tho in July the effort of the Liberals were frustrated by the appointment of a junker, Michaelis, to success von Bethmann-Hollweg as chancellor, it is admitted that such a political set back is not criterion for what may happen this fall.
 With the knowledge that the demo cratic thought of the world is rang ed against them we doubt whether the autocratic masters of the German people can long hold out. German Lib erals are becoming bolder all the time and probably are gaining ad herents rapidly.

During the civil war the vessel guarded several thousand prisoners on Johnson's Island, in Lake Erie. It was during this period that a plot was laid by the Confederates to cap ture and convert the warship into commerce destroyer as we'll as 10 attempt the bombardment of some Of the lake ports. The plot was dls- covered in time to precent its exc cution and the vessel was saved.
 Of type of warship that has long passed to the junk heap, the Wolver- inc was the best that could be built in her day. During her active ser vice she carried g battery of 12 guns and a crew of 100 men. The old yes sel is still in. fair shape, and if nec- essary, perhaps, could easily sink anything afloat on the lakes with a few shots from her breech-lOading rifles. Frequent overhaulings have kept the machinery and othe requip- ment in good repair.

Chicago, Ill.,, Sept. kidding at anchor off Chicago's lake front and looking spick and span despite her seventy odd years. the U. s. s. Vol verine, formerly the Michigan, the oldest ironclad warship in the world, is doing her bit by serving as re- ,ceiving ship for the Great Lakes tackles, and at the same time doing considerable in the way of stimu- lating the patriotism of the people.
 It will be D years on November g of next year since the Wolverine, as the vessel is now known, was launched at Erie. Pa. The vessel was built in Pittsburgh and shipped to Erie on wagons. In the early Gays of her career many Indian chiefs were entertained aboard her and made to see the error of their ways.

 Charles Chaplin, for instance, need
 not give his army of imitators a thought have failed to regis ter. They have advertised and em- phasized Charley's fame rather than competed with it.
 But let a screen star bring an oriG- inal method to the front and he i'm mediately becomes real competitor of all existing stars. A film fan is born every minute but nobody knows what happened to the man who cared to waste his time with a rank imitation. The big public may lack the high brow taste in some things, but it never lacks appreciation of orig inality.

Will state health insurance come? No one can tell. Personally, I re- gard it, while not the most important a most essential part of any we'll balanced sytem of ocial legislation" said Dr. MeeEer. Such system prop erly worked out" he continued, twill indemnify workers against loss and reduce disease Competent medical
 surgical and hospital treatment is fundamental to all social insurance covering accidents, sickness, invalid ity and old age. Health insurance is the extension of the principle of accident compensation to cover sick ness whether caused by the employ ment or not.
 Some insurance companies selfish ly oppose compulsory health insur- ancc. They call it class legislation' That is how most progressive leg lation is stigmatized at first. I recall the broad view of the Pennsylvania supreme court when the toll-roads ap- piled for injunction to head off the building of steam railroads. The court held that the vested interests of the toll-roads did not include an eter- nal right to block all improvements that might benefit the state. Neither insurance nor any other interest should be given the job of writing a law intended to indemnify and safe guard men against accidents, sick
 meas, unemployment, old age, and death, or even fire losses and other damages to property. Fire losses are not generally considered subjects for social insurance. However, define social insurance as all insurance, whether of property or persons, from which the element 0: private profit has been entirely eliminated and the concept of social service and better ment substituted. ". Applied in tAis sense, social insurance becomes an effective means of tccunteracting the harmful results of modern industrial conditions upon the general well-be l ing of the nation"
