The skirt is one of the new

from the hips up.
There is a smart jacket top

A Repnblio's Troubles.

Provisional President Zamora and the
rest Of the republican regime at Madrid
are discovering that democracy has Its
troubles, too. Yesterday the capital OF
Spain rocked with counter-revolutionary
agitation. which shows that while the
monarchists are out they are not alto
setber down. The exiled Alfonso still
has friends ct home, determined to vent
their royalist spleen and crusade for the
restoration of the Bourbons.
Dispatches relate tibet the republican
government is chagrined by the extent
and violence of the monsrchiSt fare
back. They had prided themselves on
the ease with which the throne was
toppled O month sgo and the tranquil
lity that hes since reigned. The Madrid
authorities were apparently taken by
surprise by a Sunday parade whose mill
tant participants Justify shouted: Long
live the King" Fierce attacks by re-
publicans ensued. Monarchlst head
quarters we're invaded, the royalist
newspaper, A B C, was sacked, and q
former minister of the interior under
Alfonso, Senior Matos, only escaped

ton of SPANS most eminent newly

Going to the Dogs.

Capt. Charles Lockwood, surviving
member of the Last Mans Club of Still
water. Minnesota. and revisiting Wash
ington for the first time since he CRATE
fully paused here after q hurried trip
from Bull Run in 81. has seen q lot
OF things in the lightweight years of
his life.
For one thing, he has probably seen
the country about to go to the dogs
more times than most men. He must
have been sure, as millions of others
were, that the country was about to
Run. and later. after Fredericks-
burg and Spottsylvsnia Court House
and during the second invasion of
Maryland. And without knowing the
captains political tenets or beliefs,
it would only be natural to conceive he
was among thousands of ex-soldiers
who were sure the country was going
to the dogs when tragedy elevated An
drew Johnson TO the Presidency. And
while that was somehow escaped, the
pAIilC bHO Tue CLcOlO HlOUllfcF ScdnOdB
of 1873 brought him and the rest of
the country to the brink once more.
Then there were the Marine Bank
failure in 1884, the silver crisis and
the panic of 1898, the panic of 1907,
the Bull Moose movement in 1912, the
pre-wsr depression in 1914, the post
war depression in 1920, the Ku Klux
Khan, Teapot Dome, the cha mel swim
merS, the tree-sitters and miniature
golf. And now, with bootleggers and
gangSters and rsckets and q depres-
sion caused by high tariff that is the
only thing protecting us from utter
economic ruin, Capt. Lockwood is about
to see the country go to the dogs again.
One wonders whether the Captains
experience has furnished him with any
comforting philosophy regarding the
business Of going to the dogs and
whether he has not enjoyed every bit
as much pleasure from the frequently
presented prospect of going to the dogs
as he has in seeing this old world
escape each time by the skin Of its
teeth.

Chesterton, Critic, Stirs
Defenders of Villages Here

Americans resent comments on the
less attractive communities that may
be found in the United States, ut
tered by Gilbert K. CheSterton, after
his return to England from an Amer
lean tour. Nevertheless the. press
voices the thought that the hope Of
civic leaders In this country is in the
direction CT improved settings for
communities. 1t Is pointed out that
America is young, and that its vitality
and growth are likely TO have a physi-
cal background that has not reached
perfection. There are suggestions that
his ideal in such matters is medieval
in some respects and does not appeal
to this country.
Because most of our highways
avoid the residential sections OF our
towns and afford the tourist no glimpse
of lawns, tree-arched side streets and
pleasant cottages" says the Newark
Evening News, 1.-THE CheStertonian
criticism Is not quite fair, but, so far
as it goes it is accurate" The News
emphasizes 1.-THE resentment q large
proportion Of our population has to
these conditions" and the patient but
necessarily slow labor many are en-
gagged in to keep matters from getting
worse" The Hartford Times remarks
that 'it is almost only yesterday that
America was a wilderness" and that
1T takes time to make village or
a tame, refined countryside" That
paper adds that "Our industry has run
ahead of our culture" but declares
that while fitting from one place to
another in hy-by-night fashicn, he did
not see as much as he might and
gained general impressions which as
to many particulars are quite false"
IF Europe and America were alike,
thinks the San Francisco Chronicle,
there would be less reason for visiting
back and forth and this country might
have missed the Chesterton presence.
The Chronicle feels that Americans
are conscious Of most OF the things
CheSterton Is quoted as oeplorlng, Out
assumes that like nearly every one
with the gift Of verbal caricature, he
expects his exaggerations to be taken
as such and properly discounted" The
Cincinnati T1meS-Star suspects that in
speaking before the Society for the
Preservation Of Rural England per
haps he was only telling the society
what IL wanted to hear" as the organi-
1ation is dedicated TO the hard task
Of discouraging Englishmen from selling
the nations historic snrines to rich
Americans"
"Mr. CheSterton's admiration for the
Middle Ages Is well known" according
to the Roanoke Times, but by COMPARE
son modern America has nothing for
which to apologize, we imagine" The
Times comedies that "a good DEAF of
what he said lis true" and "all OF 1t
has been said by some Of our own lead
Ing citizens at one time or another"
The Detroit Free Press states that
we've been at 1t only three centuries,
and argues: Americans are little too
fast for Chesterton's medieval mind. A
lot Of things over here went right past
him, without registering. We have our
pockets Of medieValism, too, where the
instincts of the jungle crop out; but we
also have our gardens where the fairest
blossoms of civilization unfold their fra
