 None of the questions which are likely to become issues in the congressional elections of next year the presidential election in 1924. presented them selves in the elections of Tuesday. Nowhere was the question of approval endorsement of the re- publican party raised. There was less partisan lineup, suppose. in Kentucky, but in mayoralty elections partisanship almost everywhere Is gone except. sometimes. in
 The only election of the year which might be regarded possessing any political significance that of United States senator in New Mexico cently where the republicans feared that a defeat of disapproval of the administration. But he was not defeated Perhaps some republicans mistook that for approval of the administration. We are hardly prepared to believe that the people of New Mexico undertook to pass judgment upon the party at a but that they regarded period of its serv ice yet too brief for either condemnation or com mendation.

DEMOCRACY AND SCIENCE
BY DR. FRANK CRANE Copyright, 1921, by Frank Crane)

There two words characteristic of the Twen- teth Century,: Democracy and Science.
 Democracy is not theory of government. It is the practice of government by the people. What 1t amounts to IS an absence of theory.
 Democracy is really the outcome of an age of science That is it bases government upon actual ex- pertinent and not upon fanaticiSm, superstition, or tradition.
 It has swept away the divine right of kings, sim ply because that idea was proved to be fiction
 Science is not pure theory. It is not something re- moved from the actualities of the world.
 Science simply means knowledge that has been systematized, verified, and tried.
 Dr. IrOtter In his Instincts of the Herd,' gives good definition of science "A body of knowledge derived from experience of its material and coordnated that it shall be useful in forecasng and if possible, directing the future behavior of that material"
 Men have always studied made theories and amassed facts. But it is only in comparatively modern times that they have begun to use this material as basis of action. That is the real scientific spirit.
 As Professor Thomson says, Tt is determined attempt to substitute the rational for the empirical; the growing habit of focusing scientific inquiry upon practical puzzes the recognition of scientific invest gaton as an agency likely to produce well-belng as we'll enlightenment
 Democracy is simply the effort to adjust human affairs upon basis of dscoverabe and provabe facts and not upon custom, tradition falth or hocuSpocus
 Science is simply mans usage of his reason as basis of action instead of his hopes his fears or his obedience to authority.
 It is only by science that Professor Oliver and others have shown how waste places like sandy heaths pit heads and salt marshes may be made profitable
 It is science that has improved the quality of fruit root crops, cattle, and sheep.
 It is science that has conquered many mlcroblc diseases; from malaria to bilharziasis.
 It is science that is replacing the purple of the snail by the product of coal tar.
 1t is science that enables man to tap all the reser- vors of energy in nature.
 It is science that enables to illuminate cities 100 miles away by the power of Niagara Falls.
 Already" says Thomson science is making bread out of thin air. working miracles in the conquest of plague and pesence and controlling the inheritance of generations unborn.'
 And we never going to have government upon any workable basis that shall be of benefit to the whole people until we base it's operations upon science.
 All the trouble with government has been, the same the trouble in every other department of human endeavor that mankind has been endeavoring carry it on by prejudice passion and force instead of passing it simply upon facts and conducting 1t for the welfare of the people governed.

The Diamond Horseshoe gleams and
 glows
 With splendor as of storied Rome. The audience. in serried rows. Fills all the house. from pit to
 dome; The leader waves his thin baton, The music rises as of yore. But there's a golden magic gone, The voice of voices is no more. The sound of woodwinds swells and
 dies,
 The cymbals clash. the snare drums
 roll, Above the zoom of viols rise
 Voices that shake the heart and
 soul; Into the throbbing air are tossed Vast harmonies that stir a>sd thrill. Yet is one lyric glory lost The voice of voices now is still. 'n Pagliacci"-we shall hear Never again from human throat That burst of beauty. warm and clear. That sheer heart breaking broken

 T have it" he declared. "You got ta give situations a new twist these days. Instead of having the dogs chase Eliza. why not have Eliza chase ths dogs? Get the idea? There's a nov city.
 What would you do about Little Eva?" we asked.
 T can't quite make up my mind" he replied. Personally I think I'd cut her out, too. She's old stuff. I'd write in a part like Marilynn Miller has in Sally; that's the stuff that appeals today. and I'd try to get Marilynn to do it. You gotta cut out unhappy endings like Eva going to heaven"
 But is Eva going 70 heaven an unhappy ending2" we asked.
 'I dunno; 1t would depend who booked her there and whether the equity would agree to pay her way back in case the trip was a fliv," hs replied. Personally I'd rewrite the ending and have Eva tall in love with an eX-priuce of some European fam fly who was working as a waiter. Then I'd have 'em sing a good mu- sical number by Otto Hauerbach and then go to Babylon, l.. l. and live happily ever after You gotta give 'em a happy finish"

WASHINGTON, Nov. 9-Shall we have more holidays?
 The feminist forces have asked congress to make August 23, the day the woman suffrage amendment was adopted, Woman'S day, and a national holiday. Admirers of Roose- welt want his birthday, which falls on Oct 27. added to the list of hol days throughout the country.
 Columbus has his supporters, too, who think the day this country was discovered is of sufficient importance to be celebrated more widely than it is. Various groups are urging con gress to make Armistice day per manent holiday.
 Bills for new holidays are presented to congress every year, but this year there seems to be more interest in them than usual.
 Armistice day stands the best chance of being put on the calendar as a permanent holiday now. Sen timent in favor of it is strong, and the time is opportune. But length ening the list of holidays is a serious step, and now, especially, there is a tendency to stop to consider whether we have enough holidays already, whether they are an economic asset or liability, and what holidays cost anyway.
 A large number of feast days is re- garded by some authorities as sign of economic degeneracy. The evil dence seems to be that we have not too many holidays now. As the dif- ferent states decide for themselves the holidays they will celebrate, the number varies from seven to a dozen or more. The average which is about ten compares favorably with the holiday lists of other countries. Scot land, it is true, gets along with only five national holidays, but Australia has 16. Rumania has 24, mostly reli- gious, and while Mexico has only 19 national holidays, it is estimated that all of it's GO local holidays are ob- served by more than half the people
 Back in ancient times, Roman his tory furnishes a striking illustration of holiday eXcesses. Out of 355 days in year, the Romans set aside 10s as unlawful for judicial or political business. These days were dedicated to the gods. We have about half as many rests days in our Sundays, and
