Consul.


The word consul is of Latin origin.
being derived from the verb consulo.
I consider. As the name Of an office
1t nIso had its origin in Rome in the
early days Of the republic.
The constitution Of that republic
was democratic beyond anything we
know today. The source Of all power
was the people. They elected the ex-
ecutlvc magistrates and the judges,
and they enacted the laws. not through
chosen representatives, but by direct
action In an assembly Of the whole
people called the comitia. They had
two chief executive officers Of equal
rank, elected each year. who were at
the head of the work of governing.
These were called consuls. In the end
corruption and recurring periods Of an
archy broke down the government,
and an autocracy grew up. but which
for years preserved many Of the forms
of the dead democracy. For five CEN
turies under the empire there were
consuls. but they were without any
real power. AS title Of an office the
word consul is still in use. Today
a consul is representative of his
country's commercial interests in a
foreign country. The political repre-
sentative is the ambassador.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

heretofore contracted. the prohibition
at this time Of polygamy or the dis
continuance Of divorce, must unavoid-
ably result in the active resistance Of
a people imbued with fanatic determi-
nation to die rather than submit to
privation Of their religious liberty in
matters they believe to be fundamen-
tai and sanctioned by divine author
ity."
Mr.. Carpenter said that girls Of
prominent families in Mindanao and
Sulu are being sent to Manila public
schools where they associate with
Christian girls and gradually become
imbued with the homogeneous ideas
held by the Christians. When they re-
turn. to their own people their infiu-
ence tends to eliminate plural mar
riages, according to Carpenter. who
predicted that the practice will be vir-
tually wiped out in the course Of

GREATER THAN THE SPHINX
Statue Of Buddha, In Western China,
Ii 10 Truly One Of the Marveis
Of the World.

For many years it has been known
that about fifty miles from Jah-ding.
In western China, there is very large
and remarkable statue of Buddha. but
1t was not until very few years ago
that 1t was ever described by an occi-
dental.
DIR. Sprague,. an authority on things
Chinese, visited 1t. At the end of two
days travel he reached the image and
found 1t to be colossus in size, al
though not SO large as rumor had made
1t out. The upper half of the hillside
consists of sandstone cliff and in this
niche fifty feet broad has been cut
leaving central core of stone that Is
carved In the shape Of figure seated
in European style, not cross-legged, as
Buddha is SO often represented. The
traveller found the height of the image
to be not less than one hundred feet.
A series of five tiled roofs. descend
ing like flight Of steps. built in front
Of the image, protects 1t from the
weather, so that only the face can
be seen from without.
When the doctor came within sight
Of the great Buddha he paused and
rested from his journey at a point near
one Of the gates to the VALID city that
lies In the valley below. AS his eyes
turned to the great face, which has
been gilded until 1t shines like metal.
as the immense size and perfect
preservation of the idol made their I'M
preston, the thought came to him that
''this is more marvellous than many of
the worlds boasted wonders"
He thought of the cOlossi at Thebes
and the Sphinx. Scared AID ruined
and defaced by the hand of man and
the effects of time, they are little bet
ter than Jumps of battered rock. But
far in the west of China sits this old
Buddha, unnoticed and almost un-
known, yet greater in size than the
Egyptian colossi. with his proportions
preserved intact. with temples about
and below him, and with the priests
in attendance to keep the incense
burning ut his feet. There he sits,
grimly gazing out over the tiled roofs
of the city that lies before him.

New York.-An attack by British
soldiers upon a crowd Of unarmed ma
tives Of India, as they were seeking
to present to British deputy commits
sicner a petition for the release Of
two Of their leaders, led few days
later to the massacre Of 1000 Indians
in q great square at Amritsar, in the
Punjab district Of India in the spring
OF 1919. says report prepared by the
Punjab subcommittee Of the Indian ma
tional congress.
Dissatisfaction among the natives
flrst became apparent with the pas
sage Of the Rowlat bills, designed to
punish sedition.
All over the country resolutions
were passed by huge mass meetings
protesting against the law and de-
manding its repeal.
The trouble. the report states, be-
gan in earnest when two influential
natives, Doctors Kitchlew and Satya-
pal were arrested and their friends
heard they were to be deported.
Many Natives Killed.
The report continues with descrip-

former were killed and the survivors
infiamed to such pitch Of fury that
they returned into the city and ap-
piled the torch to several principal
buildings.
The occurrence which directly led
to the subsequent Wholesale massacres
In the Jalleanwala Bagh, the report
asserts, was proclamation issued
about this time by Gen. Dyer forbid
ding the natives to assemble publicly.
The public meeting IN the Jallean-
wala Bagh," the report states, "was
called before the proclamation had
reached more than half the population.
Shortly before the arrival Of Gen. Dyer
IN the scene with ninety soldiers and
two armored cars, Hans Raj had taken
