lby an embittered white man, they
adopt the modes and manners 'of|the
whites, and when a merry hunting
party journeys from the gay white
way to their peaceful homeland,
there begins a gripping drama that is
replete with pathos. human touches,
sympathy, much humor and many
Spectacular situations. One OF the
most sensational scenes is enacted
when Mitchell Lewis as Wolf Briggs,

Parcel Post Barred to Children

According to the Post Office Depart
ment, children have new been off
cially declared not to be 'harmless
live animals, which do not require
food or water This important de-
cision has been rendered In the case
Of two youngsters for whose trans
portation by parcel post application
was made. The department finds that
inasmuch as children are not goldfish
or soft shell crabs. OF such like crea.
lures. they cannot be sent through the
mails. The departments ruling appar-
emily is based more definitely on the
fact that the children require feod and
water than upon their harmlessness.
In truth. the department might be
challenged on that score if it ruled
that children were harmless animals.
A child has been known to do lot
of harm. But note that the depart
ment rules that they are not "wild"
animals, and yet there are some who
would challenge this definition. III
deed. there is possibility that the
department ruling may not be broad
enough to cover parcel post trip,
for instance. from Washington to Bal
timore, in the course of which a child
would not necessarily need food or
water. 1t may be that specific lcgisla-
tion will be necessary to cover all pos
sible eases, and to make certain that
no human being, large or small, harm
less or otherwise, wild or perfectly
tame, or subject or Indifferent to the
demands of hunger and thirst, can be
shipped under postage stamp.

Chicago's Complaint.

Now it is Chicago that is dissatisfied
with the census report on population,
thus joining New York in its dissent.
The bureau announced total of 3
1ol,2l2 for the Windy city, gain of
23.6 per cent. Chicagoans protest that
this is 1s3,015 less than was shown
by an accurate count" conducted un-
der local auspices.
The craving for urban size is never
allayed. Big cities want to be bigger,
and small cities want to be big. New
York and Chicago have hard times
managing their crowds now, and vet
they wish for more.
This census thus far has shown more
striking gains for the middle sized
cities. particularly those possessing
highly developed industries, than for
the great eenters.
Until the census returns are fully
compiled it will be impossible to as
certain whether the Getty drift" has
continued to increase. The hope of
the country should be that the tide
has slaekened if it has not actually
turned. With the farmers begging for
help the movement to the towns is a
heavy liability that will injure the
country.

Harding and Mckinley.

AT Chicago Senator Harding was com
pared with McKinley-was credited
with the Observation-Disclosures, the unex
citableness and the eonservativeness
that marked the equipment of the man
with whom the republicans won in
1896
Senator johnson was compared with
Roosevelt-was credited with the i'm
pulsiveness, the aggressiveness. the free
swing that marked the equipment of
the man who succeeded Mckinley in
the White House.
The comparisons were pondered by
the delegates to the convention, and
undoubtedly influenced sentiment. The
convention, in the final showdown, de-
cided in favor of the Mckinley type
of man. as best suited to the require
ments of the times. The Mckinley
record, therefore, is for the voters to
consider, and for the supporters of
Candidate Harding to be heartened by.
When Mr. Mckinley took Office the
country had experienced four years of
disquiet and extreme business depres-
sion. Much was expected of Congress; ;
and the new President at once estab-
lished cordial and workable relations
with the legislative body. He had
served in the House. was a master of
congressional procedure and esteemed
Congress.
The intelligent combination success
fully met the emergency. Public af
fairs began to look up Immediately; +;
and at the end of four years prosper
ity and confidence prevailed, and Mr..
Mckinley was renominated by accla-
nation and reelected with ease.
Mr. Harding has not had the length
Of Mr. McKinley's legislative service,
but his FIVE years in the Senate have
given him an insight into legislative
processes and qualified him for CO.
operation with Congress. And if he
is elected and another republican Con.
gress chosen, they will have their hands
full, and in order to accomplish any
thing must stand together.
