Clarence barrow, most successful
criminal lawyer, says NRA is led by

ical economy.
Who does understand political econ
omy?
Mr.. Darrow rebukes the President
for failing to call in men versed In

Who are those men in this country9
Mr.. barrow should name them.
You can do things, when you con-
troll a country absolutely. as Stain
controls Russia, with all money,
earned by everybody, spent to carry
out government plans.
Having trained millions of young
men and women In aerodynamics, as
preparation for flying, the Russian
government plans to train one million
parachute Jumpers, not ten thousand
or a hundred thousand, but one mil
lion, by the end Of this year.
Russia does things in big way.
That Hitler still retains his power
In Germany and his grip on the Ger
man imagination is shown in his latest
reichstag speech. Hailed with frantic
acclaim in the streets Of Berlin, loudly
applauded by the subservient reichs-
tag, with army and people under his
thumb, it is difficult to see what can
destroy his power short Of collapse
In Germany's economic resources. The
plot that, according TO his own state
ment, Hitler punished with seventy
seven traitors deaths, evidently did
not have the people back of it.
Thibetan Buddhists have discovered
the reincarnation Of their late lament
ed Dalai Lama.
The last Lama, ruling Thibet as
spiritual and temporal head from the
crimson and white palace Of Lhasa,
died last December. 1t then became
the business Of Buddhist priests to
find a baby born at the exact minute
of the Lama's death. The baby must
have certain marks on his head to
fh.,f hn ic hn Of
the dead man and contains his spirit.
The right baby with the right marks
has been found in humble home far
from Lhasa. A clever Buddhist priest
will rule until the baby Lama reaches
the age Of eighteen. Meanwhile, the
baby will be carefully looked after
and highly honored.
Unlike the ancient Buddhist rein
carnations, he is not expected to sit
in the air without any support and
deliver a sermon at birth.
The wise merchant tells his clerks:
"The customer is always right"
James ]. Dooling, new leader of Tam
many hall, tells those under him, the
entire human machinery of the big
gest city: eff public opinion is against
anything there must be changes, be-
cause public opinion is always right"
Mr.. Dooling as leader of Tammany
is very young, only forty-one. Tam
many has always thought leader
should be over fifty. Croker and Muir
ply were over fifty. Some Tammany
men feel that Mr.. Dooling is too high
ly educated" At Fordham college, he
studied Greek and Latin as well as
law.
We have troubles in this country,
but look at China. Her chief wheat
regions are burning up under a tenn
perature as high as lis degrees, many
are dead, cholera is killing others.
Locusts in many places destroy what
intense heat and drouth have left of
the crop. Widespread famine next
winter is inevitable.
Here, we manufacture our troubles.
To unfortunate China, providence or
nature sends them.
Bertrand Russell says the British,
ruling India, 'act like Nazis." For the
crime Of desiring self-government, &C.
cording to Bertrand Russell, Hindus
have been deprived of 1.-THE elementary
liberties that make life tolerable."
You wonder when the Hindus DOS
sessed any such liberties, except, to
limited extent, among Hindus of the
highest class. Among them "liberty"
included the right to inflict horrible
injustice on the miserable outcast un-
touchables. also the right to marry
little girls ten years old and younger.
and the right to have young widows
burned alive with the corpses of their
old husbands.
The big telephone company in the
first six months Of 1884 earned SOL.
100000, net, after charges and federal
taxes, which seems a good deal Of
money. But 1t is only 1892 a share
on the company's 1S,662,275 shares OF
stock.
Prospects are improving for the tele
phones, however, and a net income OF
100000 for six months is "some
thing"
