OUR FIGHTING PARTNERS.

When the United States enters the
world war. she will find herself in a
company much improved by the revo-
luton in Russia. The combination
will be one in which republics pre-
dominate numerically
How much of the republican move
ment in Russia may be due to her
alliance with free France and Great
Britain and how much to other causes
may never be known.
From the beginning of the war the
homogeneous feature of the great alli-
ance known as the entente, says the
| Cleveland Leader, was the league be-
tween Russia, the most autocratic
like France and Great Britain in
which there is popular sovereignty.
Italy, also, is much too free, much too
near the real state of a republic, if
not it's outward forms, to be a nat
ural and fit ally for such an empire
as Russia has been.
The momentous change in Russia
draws the lines sharply between the
empires where there is still strong up
holding of the divine right" of kings
and real monarchial authority, and
the nations which are in spirit and
effect democracies. however modified
by forms and minor conditions In
Japan, 1t is true, the emperor still has
great power but Japan is taking only a
very local and passive part in the war
All of which makes it easier for
Americans to view with composure,
even with complacency, the conse-
quences of the conditions, made in
Germany" which have brought this
country to the very verge of war.

SIDE TALK S
The Unreasonable Husband.
BY RUTH CAMERON

To fall in love with and marry be-
cause the object of your love pos
sesses a certain quality of character,
and then to be unpleaSantly surprised
when that quality manifests itself, is
one of the commonest OF marital in
conSistencies.
I am thinking just now particularly
of the quality of intenseness, because
a case where the husband fell in love
with his wife because she was so in
tense about her enjoyment of things
and her devotion to him, has greatly
interested me.
shes so interested in everything
she does" he used to say when he
first met her. Nothing half hearted
about her. It's fun TO take her any
where because she's so enthusiastic"
And SO they were married.
And by-and-by the intense little girl
became an equally intense little
mother.
She couldn't do too much for her
children, couldn't guard their health
too carefully, couldn't think of any
thing else. And as every intense emo
ton includes an equally intense ca
pacity for worrying over it's object
she couldn't keep from worrying about
them.
Again, when bereavement came to
her she grieved with an intensity
that soon grew tiresome to her hus-
band.
Why can't she take life more cas-
ily?" he said. Look at my brothers
wife, she has six children and see how
easily she takes them" And again
"Of course it's sad for her to lose her
mother, but she can't go on grieving
forever. What's the sense?''
Poor man! I'm afraid he'll never
realize that it isn't question of sense
at all but of something infinitely more
powerful-of human nature.
Mind you, 1 don't mean to say thai
she couldn't try to control some OF
the manifestations of her intensity
She could and she should. But I dc
say that the tendency is there and
that he knew it when he married her
and should have reckoned with it
This is what 1 once heard a very
wise husband say to his wife
Il don't see how l could have
found wife better suited to me all
round than you"
You might have found one who
was more Placid said she, land that
would please you sometimes"
Yes" said he, sometimes but il
she were placid sometimes she would
be placid from Az. I'd hate that"
Wise, wise young man-truly "a
Daniel come to judgment"

GLOBE SIGHTS
[From the Atchison Globe.1

From the Atchison Globe
About all some men ever get out of
life is steady work.
Writing to his relatives seldom cuts
into mans evenings a great deal.
1t isn't always necessary to admit
defeat in order to have it found out.
When a man is sick he never thinks

him.
When you begin to care more for
comfort than appearance you are get

While some take a simplified SPELL

When a man has some knocking to
do he can always find plenty of men
willing to help.
What has become of the old-fash-
Toned girl who used to entertain her
steady with a photograph album?
Anyone who has lived in a small
town can tell you the great heartless
city will never corner the sin supply.
What has become of the old-fash-
toned man who carried his marriage
certificate when he took his wedding
trip?
Some men are anxious to serve their
country because being postmaster is
the lightest employment they can

Curiosity sends lot of young peo-
pie to ruination. For that reason
more fathers and mothers should ex-
plain things to their sons and daugh-

A man who talks a great deal can't
keep from saying a lot of fool things.
1t is the same way with the man who
writes for a living. Therefore you
should overlook many of the trans
gressions of reporters.

THE DEBs STRIKE.

The settlement of the threatened
railway strike marks the second occa-
sion on which the government has
interviewed to put an end to a dispute
between the railroads and their en-
ployes. On the previous occasion it
was the executive and judicial depart
ments that interfered and were like
wise sustained by the supreme court.
On July 2, 1894. the business of
this country had to come to a complete
standstill owing to the Debs railway
strike. which was more nearly a uni
versal tie-up than has been known
here before or since.
That afternoon the United States
government filed a bill in equity for
the removal of Constructions to the
transportation of the mails and of in
terstate commerce. and for the preven-
ton of further interference there
will"
rhe injunction was granted.
On the evening of July 3 President
Cleveland ordered from Fort Sheridan
to Chicago 500 regular soldiers to see
that the mandate of the court was
obeyed. Further troops were ordered
in from Riley and Leavenworth.
On July 5, 6, and mobs were
in practical control of the city and
the president declared martial law.
There were short, sharp clashes be-
tween troops and rioters. but the H.
900 regulars gave such protection

Emancipation of the Indian.

The present administration of In
dian affairs writes S. M Brosius in
Case and Comment, has produced adj
vancement in the Indians. Hitherto
raw land is being brought under Gull
tivation, tribal and individual herds
built up, school facilities increased,
and sanitary measures instituted and
enforced with energy. Competency
commissions are in the field visiting
those reservations on which the trust
period is about 10 expire, the pur-
pose being to ascertain the individual
Indians capable of handling their own
affairs Patents III fee will issue to
the Indians falling within this class
and the trust period extended on the
allotments of those found to be still in
need of the governments protecting
care. 1t is indeed gratifying to know
that a substantial percentage of the
living allottees are found competent
The results accomplished all along the
line lead the friends of the Indians to
hope that the day of their emancipa-
ton is beginning to dawn, and that It
is only question of time when the
Indian race is fully absorbed into our
body polite

wanton destruction of property by

Wahton destruction of property by
the Germans, since the war began
in its fiendishness, probably has never
been equalled in the history of the
world. OF what effect on the decision
of the war can be the chopplng down
of the shade trees along the streets
of Jerome? 1t has been said that
it is useless to go to war with gloves
on, but what end can be served by
dropping bombs on the homes of in
nocent women and children? The
news dispatches TEEN with accounts
of outrages which can hardly be a
part of the kaiser's war plans. 1t
seems that the war has turned the
German soldier into a devil. Ruin Of
cities and homes by shell fire cannot
be avoided. but the German soldiers
retreating from French territory take
time to complete the work begun by
the artillery of the opposing armies.

GovERNNENT REGULATION.

The opinion of the United States SUI
preme court establishing the validity
of the Adamson law marks another
step forward in government regulation
of the affairs of public service cor
porations. 1t also again calls atten-
ton to the possibility of regulating
these corporations out of business and
causing government operation to take
the place of what now Is merely fed
eral control.
The gap between governmental reg
ulation and government operation is a
real one, states A. L. Lavine in case
and Comment; and whenever the gov
eminent undertakes to discharge a
commercial function, it does so in a
capacity totally different from that
wherein it assumes the role of regu-
Iator. Regulation may proceed indef-
initely without encroaching upon
operation.
This is not to say. however, that
regulation should proceed Indefinite
ly. A needless multiplication of reg
ulatory powers may constrain the own
ers of an enterprise to surrender own
ership and quit the field-upon just
compensation, of course-just as a
community may drive out its citizens
by a needlessly burdensome tax rate.
In other words, needless regulation,
while it cannot destroy the property
right, may, by its weight, destroy the
element of initiative which, properly
directed, is capable of making the ex-
ercise of property rights most fruitful
to mankind.
The effort of regulation, therefore,
should be to direct the current of hu-
man endeavor, but not to thwart it.
