Though purportng speak for his party, the credit many cratic that he really speaking only himself, for many administration measures have ceived democratic support-bnt not Mir. Harrison's. He has kept the faith
 reiterated what he called the democratic policy of senseess and indscriminate opposition the other day in the debate the revision bill, collo quy with Senator Watson. who said: We shall prob ably be compelled to do all these things without the aid and assistance of the senator from Mississippi because he intends oppose the bill matter what put in it."
 Then this dialogue ensued:
 Mir. Harrison-I do not know.
 MT. watson-And intends oppose the rail- road bill.
 MT. Harrson-The senator cannot speak for me in that way.
 watson-I say no matter what we would put in it.
 Mr. Harrison-I think the senator from Missis- sippi would oppose any bill from Indiana would write
 MT. watson-I have not any doubt about that in the world and he would by so doing.
 MT. Harrison-I thank the We are still far apart.
 Mir. watson-The senator will oppose the railroad bill when it up
 MT. Harrison--I certainly will

THE KU KLUX KHAN
BY DR. FRANK CRANE Copyright, 1921, by Frank Crane)

There has been rejuvenation of the old Ku Klux Klan which once ragged in the South.
 It is now proposed to organize something of sim liar nature in the North for the purpose of enabling certain members of the community to abate certain evils to which they object evils which in their opinion the properly constituted authorities do not adequately regulate.
 The movement has encountered considerable op- position Post of the Veterans of Foreign Wars has passed resolutions condemning it vigorously.
 These resolutions declared that the Ku Klux Klan IS fraudulent, hypocritical, cowardy, vicious, and illegal organization formed with the object of making money for its leaders by promoting religious and racial hatred and advocating boodshed and lawlessness"
 The resolutions also call upon the Federal and State authorities ito suppress this organization public menace and detriment to the welfare of the country
 Whether the condemnation of the Post of War Veterans is we'll founded and whether the motives of the organizers of the modern Ku Kux Kan honest and promoted by sincere desire for the public well fare do not undertake to say.
 But the general idea of Ku Klux Klan, or vgi- lance committee, or any other organization of minor ty of the citizens undertaking to step in and take the place of the authorities regularly constituted to main tain law and order, is dangerous one.
 The arguments in favor of it are spacious enough. They are the old arguments based upon the idea that the masses of the people too ignorant too neg gent, to manage their own affairs and to curb crim inas Only highly moral, select and superior minor ity can do this
 At bottom that was the argument in favor of kings of monarchs of aristocraces and of all govern ments by the few for the sake of the many.
 Theoretically, it is pretty enough. In practice, it never works.
 No minority not responsible to the people can be trusted with ultimate force.
 The dangers of Democracy are multifold But they be relieved not by discardng Democracy and turning things to tyrant they can be relieved by improving Democracy and making 1t effectual.
 The cause of all failures of Democratic govern ment is the neglect of citizenship and its duties.
 The only way to cure this is to begin in the right place. which is the public school. It is vastly more important for children to learn how to govern them selves; how to manage elections; select their of ficers; make their laws and obey them than it is for them to learn arithmetic and geography And yet in most schools the science of citizenship side issue l Only by training children in citizenship and ere atng population that will know it's duty and be in terested in it, can the fundamental wrongs of l Democracy.

Children of the Aqed

It is a sorry day on which somebody has not found something new mean on which somebody does think he has found new thing. It has been the theory ever since people began to think write about it that marriages should be early; it was better for participants and progeny But Casper L. Redfield a Chicago scientist and au- thoriy on heredity, has discovered that the world has been mistaken. Young marriages" he says produce incompetent mentalities in offspring. And the first-born marriages is not apt to be as intelligent as children born later
 MT Redfied has prepared chart which have before showing the relative chances of becoming eminent, determined by the fathers age at the birth of his The chart prepared after Mr. Redfeld checked up the fathers of 571 men. each famous enough have at least page devoted to him in the Encyclopedia Britannica
 According to the chart, the of man of "A has 100 chances of becoming famous the of man between 25 and 30 has 245 chances: between 30-34, 355 And so the chances increase with the father until the latter the of 60 produces with 5156 chances of fame.
 Says MT. Redfield: "of celebrities looked up most of them from the ranks whose fathers over 50. Not one of them the child of an early marriage. Where eminent did have young parents there always surplus heritage of age in the three preceding generations wherein the grand-folk married late"
 So sure is MT Redfield of his theory that he has offered five prizes s2O0 each for proof that really great born of parents who stituted than the third generation in century. Lincoln Cuvier, Wagner and hundreds of others had fathers 40 Napoleon. Goethe and Tolstoy had young fathers. But those fathers each had least three generations of ancestors who married late in life and thereby passed down a heritage wisdom
 MT. Redfields theory boiled down to be that the older a gets the wisdom he acquires to be transmitted to his children.
 But suppose boys and girls will keep get ting married just the same as if MT. Redfield had not spoken.

OTTAWA, Can, Oct. 17-They call this city the Washington of the North. But the phrase calls up some associations that are misleading, at this season in particular. The North suggests snowdrifts and people wear ing furs and arctics. and just now Ottawa is still enjoying the sort of fall you find in Boston or consider ably farther south.
 Washington, too. is not at first glance recalled by Ottawa. There is practically none of the marble white ness set in green that characterizes Washington. The most elaborate of the government buildings are of cream and red sandstone and the rest of the government offices are housed, in plain. unobtrusive buildings.
 But later the city does gradually show it's relation to the capital of the United States, in character more than appearance. There is the same government atmosphere and conver- sation. The buildings at set times swallow up and release the same horde of clerks-they call them civil servants here-dressed with the same ambitious stylishness.
 q don't know how they dress the way they do, on S60 a month. That's all most of them get" marveled one government official.
 A drive around the city adds to the reminders of Washington. There is the experiment farm, for instance. Canada. like the United States. has a number of these farms scattered over the country, and like the United

The Only sian of Loyalty

Both the railway owners and the railway work CTS heads another of violations of the
 Transportation Act in that they have dsregarded the orders Of the labor board in the past have threat e1ed to disregard them. Inasmuch in the present suncture the labor board is complaining of what has been done has been threatened to be done. Inc huriing back and forth of this accusation is we have already said unessentiaI hair splitting
 The labor board is only concerned now what the railways and the employees going to do in the face ot threatened calamity. By their response to Inc labor boards proposal of plan for avoiding nationwide strike will be determined the loyalty of these disputants and not by their asseverations of the diSioyaity of each other in the past
 And merely by their acceptance of the plan vIi this be determined but it will be done by the readiness with which they accept by the vigor of their efforts reject the plan. We believe that both will accept it willingly unwillingly. We feel sure that the government will see to that It cannot afford do otherwise.

ODE TO AUTUMN

Season of nists mellow fruitfulness, Close bosom friend of the maturing sun; Conspiring with him how to load and bless To bend with apples the moss'd cottage trees And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core; To swell the gourd and plump the hazel shells With sweet kernel to set budding more, And still more later flowers for the bees, Until they think days will never cease: For summer has o'erbrimmed their clammy cells Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find Thee sitting careless granary floor Thy hair soft-ifted by the winnowing wind; Or on a half-reap'd furrow sound asleep. DroYsed with the fume of poppies, while thy hook Spares the next swath and all it's twned flowers: And sometimes like geaner, thou dost keep Steady thy laden head brook; Or by cider press, with patient look, Thou watchest the last oozings, hours by hours Where are the songs of spring? Ay where are they? Think them thou hast thy music, too While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day: And touch the stubble-plains with rosy hue; Then in wailful choir the small gnats mourn Among the river shalows borne aloft Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies And full grown lambs loud bleat from hily bourn; Hedge -criciets sing; and with treble soft The red breast whistles from a garden croft. And gathering swallows twitter in the skies

CANADA'S CAPITAL

States. it has one at the capital to be near the department of agriculture.
 Our experiment farm at Arlington is a purely business proposition. No special effort is made to achieve beauty for beauty's sake. Ottawa s farm is a show place. Every tree plant and shrub that grows in Cana da is represented in these grounds. There are 2S,000 different varieties of plant life here. But instead of planting them in endless rows, an or namental park has been made of a large section of the farm.
 An Ornamental Farm
 Fields where experiments are being conducted with tobacco or wheat are alternated with beautifully kept lawns These are shaded, but not too densely, with three specimens, and flower beds show what can be done with Canada's variety of blossoms.
 One unusual feature of the grounds is a long patch of different hedge spec mems, planted like so many rows of potatoes. There is a row of yew, and close beside 1t row of spruce, and so on, for large area. II gives the effect of display in shop, the strips of hedge suggesting picture molding samples, or something of the sort.
 Another feature of the farm is a floral sum- dial, the dial of which IS marked out in red. yellow and green coleus The dial Is about 40 feet in diameter. It is laid out like the ordI- nary su.i-dial. except that flower beds. divided by narrow strips Of con crete. take the place of the stone plate with it's lines. The shadow Is
