'Vf OW that it is regarded as certain that the war between Japan and Russia must come to an end very soon, it is believed that the Russian gov ernment will be better disposed toward the plan of reform which was outlined by his loading ministers. Some concessions will have to be made to the people or there will be disturbances continuing for a long time. It is 'earned through Parisian newspapers that the constitution which was submitted to the czar by Yermeloff, his minister of agriculture, and which received some consideration at his hands, em bodied the following points: The assembling of delegates from all the pro vincial zemstvos to formglate a constitution which, while maintaining the autocratic rights and supreme powers of the czar, will aim at satisfying the needs, whether moro or less urgent, of the people. This assembly will not be called the zemski sobor, but will be a chamber composed of represent ative and legislative elements. The laws voted by this chamber will have to receive the sanction of the czar before coming into force. The budget of tho imperial houso and the acts of the emperor or of members of his family must not form tho subject of debate in the chamber. The question of the liberty of the press will be definitely examined, as well as that of the abolition of the censorship. The regulation of the duties ar.d rights of students. The opening of a school in every village and compulsory education. The expenseox maintaining these schools, which has hitherto been borne by the people alone, will be shared between the people and other classes. A reduction of the taxes which have encumber ed landed property. Assistance to peasants to enable them to ac quire land, and a reduction of certain direct and in direct taxes. Laws to ameliorate tho lot of workmen; insur ance for workmen in case of accident, and a super annuation fund for workmen who had suffered in following their calling. Inspectors to be commissioned to investigate several times a year the condition of workmen. Schools for workmen's children, to bo main tained at the expense of employers. Permission for Jews to follow any trade and to live without restriction in any part of Russia. Jews to be admitted much more freely to the higher schools, and Jews, Poles, Finns and Armen ians to have their rights without regard to national ity or religion. Exiles to be brought back by administrative means. Absolute liberty of conscience. The opening of chapels and synagogues and the free practice of any form of worship. The organization of medical attendance for the poor and an increase in the number of hospitals. SPRING. OIIE winter now passing lias at least the merit of making us welcome spring. More than the us ual blizzards, cold, and snow have combined with epidemics of pneumonia to render the popula tion oblivious to whatever winter may have of charm. Spring to ordinary mortals is tho cheerfulest time of year. Warmth and blue sky and stirrings in the ground and trees give more general happiness than the graver moods of other seasons. Always spring has bean the symbol for happiness and youth. Al ways the young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love, but his proneness is vernally some what accentuated. The softening earth and delicate green spouts have, after we have braved the winter, something of that tenderness which those who have known the stress of years welcome in the soft flesh and jocund liveliness of infancy. The preference of versifiers for these early months has been so strong as to make the spring poet a jest, and even the spring itself. "As spring approaches, ants and roaches," —some such expression lingers in our cerebral hemispheres. "If theie coracg a litile-thaw, Still the air is chill iiml raw, Here and lliere a patch of snow, Dirtier than the ground below, Dribbles down a marshy flood; Ankle deep you stick in mud In the meadows while you sing, 'This is Spring. 1 " A touch of satire is required to flavor sentiment, but oentimcnt for spring always lives. The first stirrings of the sap can never leave our spirits dead. The more shouting of the birds and insects, the ven turing above ground of the almost forgotten worm, would force us humans, who look before and after, to echo the joyfulness of everything we hear and see. IT matters not which candidate for mayor of Chica go is elected lie will find on taking oilice that the field lor reform is a large one but that the opportunity for accomp lishing reform is limited by conditions which are not pecu liar to Chicago. There is always much for a mayor to do and little that he can do. But the people should back up their mayor in every good work and every suggestion of advancement, for ouly in this way can anything be ac complished. THERE is a spirit of manliness in every man. Some preachers arouse it and help the palsied to stand on their feet. John Wesley did this. So did Phillips Brooks. Hut they did not accomplish this result by hurling moral maxims which everybody believes and few practice. They possessed the divine gift of an understanding heart and they made other hearts beat in tune with theirs. That done the battle is won. The man stands upright. A BOSTON newspaper offered a prize for the best answer to the question, "Did Napoleon ever smoke ?" The time was not limited to before his death, but a Charlestown girl found two authorities for it that Napo leon tried smoking once and it made him so sick that he never was tempted again. WHILE President Roosevelt is twenty-fifth in num erical order of the presidents of the United States there have been twenty-nine presidential terms and he has com menced the thirtieth. It follows, therefore, that five presidents have had second terms. IT is frequently urged that Russia is not yet ready for democracy or liberty, but, as Washington once said: "Liberty, when it begins to take roi.t, is a plaut of rapid growth." Events show that it has taken root iu Russia. THE city of Washington is said to be gradually re covering from the inauguration spree. I DRIFTING? AN D now it is proposed that a score of senators and as many representatives shall accompany Secretary Taft on a summer jaunt around the world by way of the Philippines. The lucky states men who are to be invited will be selected from the committees of both houses having to do with the tariff and other legislation concerning the Philip pines, and it is confidently predicted thfit, although particular effort will be made to take nnu' who are not inclined to bo generous to the islands, they will all come home thoroughly converted to the views of the secretary and the president. Of course the Philippine treasury is to pay for the excursion, for it is for the purpose of stimulat ing legislation which the Philippine government ardently desires. 80 it is with many things. So it was with the recently authorized guarantee of bonds to be issued for the building of railroads in the Philippines. The Philippine government is to guarantee the bonds, and that government is eager to do so, because it ardently desires the building of the railroad,s. So it was with the three million dol lar Philippine exhibit at the St. Louis world's fair, paid for out of the Philippine treasury. The Phil ippine government was extremely anxious to make that exhibit to the people of the United States, and the cost mattered little to the Philippine govern ment. The Philippine people have nothing of con sequence to say about anything; and it is said, and may be quite true, that it is well that the peopie have nothing to say, because they cannot know what is good for them, and will profit and prosper more, in the long run, if we govern them a while and spend their money for them; and incidentally for ourselves and our traveling statesmen, railroad builders and exhibition boomers. Some of 11s may have grave misgivings about this; but even granting that it is well for tiie Filipi nos to be thus governed and taxed, and made to en tertain and to spend thcii funds in various ways, by foreigners of benevolent and self-confident disposi tion, there remains the question whether it is whole some for the foreigner; whether it is good for us to have our attention, and the attention of our legisla tors, thus diverted from our sufficiently engrossing home affairs; whether there may not lie grave dang er of demoralization in this governing of a totally different people 011 the other side of the world under circumstances so foreign to us, and upon principles so radically opposed to the spirit of our institutions and the natural drift of our political life i No doubt a journey around the world will have an exceedingly beneficial effect upon our senators and representatives, for travel is a great educator and eye-opener. No doubt the Philippine exhibit at the world's fair was worth a great deal, and the authorization of the Philippine guarantee of railroad bonds a measure well calculated to develop the is lands. The grave doubt is whither all this may lead us; for we have people nearer home, ofr whom it may also bo said that they do not know what is good for them, and we also have public men who would not be altogether unscrupulous in the application of this practice at home or abroad. GOVERNMENT LIFE INSURANCE A NOVEL proposal is that of a Wisconsin senator who would have a report made on the feasibil ity of establishing a government life insurance department, anent the recent disclosures concerning one of the big insurance companies of the East. The senator has introduced the following resolution: "Whereas, Under the present methods of life insurance, astounding business conditions have been disclosed in the management of certain non-resident companies whereby surplus earnings are used in ex ploiting through trust companies, stock-jobbing ventures, and "First, that their combined assets amount to over one billion dollars; second, that within a com paratively short period of years they have practical ly doubled the ratio of their expenses to re ceipts; third, that during a prosperous period they have reduced dividends to less than one-third the percentage formerly disbursed; fourth, that they have accumulated approximately two hundred million dollars in surplus profits; fifth, that the Wisconsin policy holders of these three companies pay annually over 82,500,000 into the treasury of said companies over which they exercise no coutrol, and "Whereas, Governmental life insurance has been found to he absolutely safe, cheap, free from oppressive conditions and co-operative in character. "Resolved, That a committee of three members of the senate be appointed to investigate into the practicabil ity of the successful operation of governmental and state life insurance, and that the result of their investigations in brief form together with such legislation as they may re commend he printed for the use of the next legislature. MORAL TO WASTED OPPORTUNITIES AMOS RUSIE, considered by somo baseball sharps to be the best pitcher that ever stood beforo a batsman, is working in an Indianapolis lumberyard, loading planks 011 drays for $1.50 a day. Since his retirement from baseball several years ago llusie has earned a living at digging ditches and driving trucks. lie has lost all of the magnificent physique that made him a diamond hero years ago, and has given up all hope of bettering himself. Amos got $4,000 in 1894 for pitching less than fifty games for the New York Nationals. lie was in his prime then, and his friends advise him to save his money, lint the big pitcher, fond of good fellowship, refused to listen to reason, and proceeded to blow his money in treating a horde of flatterers and supposed friends. What Rusie did not spend in this manner he loaned to Tom, Dick and Ilarry, always leaving town at the end of a sea son in debt. Today, in actual want, Rusie would find few of his boon companions of days gone by who would raise a finger to help him. Ilis pitiable conditions should be a warning to other young players who come into baseball with empty pockets, find money easily and fail to appreciate its worth. W. .T. BRYAN in his Commoner laments the lack of weekly newspapers supporting the democratic party ami principles. Mr. Bryan is not first to discover that the weekly newspapers are the ones which best reflect (he sen timent of the people. The great daily papers, the bulky publications which are read only by the professional men and residents of cities and towns, are merely money mak ing business enterprises. The county seat and small town weekly newspapers reach the people who rule the laud. ANOTHER chapter was added to the "century of dishonor" in connection with the treatment of the Ameri can Indians when the court at Washington finally dismiss ed the case which was brought for injunction to "prevent a firm of lawyers from getting 8750,000 of money belong ing to the Indians of the territory as a "fee" The rob bery of the Indians goes on and is now sanctioned by law and the courts. THE Russian people may not be, as the autocracy i claims, incapable of sell government, but they are not more incapable than are the present rulers responsible for the massacre in St. Petersburg, the discontent of thework ingnieu, the firing at ghosts in the North sea, and the blunders in the far East. at a social function as they arc in a poker game.

Sir Alexander Mackenzie had an Ide: that the Indians of the far northwest were partly Jewish in origin. From Lake Athabasca in ITiH he set out at the head of an expedition "in a birch bark canoe twenty-five feet long, four and three-quarters feet beam and twenty-six inches hold, with 3,000 pounds of baggage and provisions and n crew cf nine French Canadians, lie reached the Pacific coast and returned The aborigines he met were "for the most part possessed of strongly reli gious instincts." said he in his report. •'With regard to their origin, all we are prepared to state after a careful-sur vey of their languages, manners and customs is that they are undoubtedly of a mixed origin; come from the north northwest and had commerce iu their early history perhaps through inter marriage with people of Jewish per suasion or origin."

In the novelette which opens the April Smart Set, Grace MacGowan Cooke has struck an entirely new . note in fiction. It is a story of the West, so saturated with the atmos-' phere of that part of our country and j so photographic in its depiction of raiirh life that it will take high rank among the best tales of that class; yet it. is more as a character study that 4l The Red-Headed Woman" will win praise. The heroine is the most ori ginal, the most human, the most re freshing woman who for a long time has stepped from a printed pnge. There is no reader who will not be fascinated by her vagaries and inter ested iu her remarkable career. The short stories iu this number cover H wide field. First of all, there is a wonderfully graphic tale by a new writer, Julia Lawrence Shafter, which she has called * 4 A Realist." In it, with consummate art. she analyzes the intricate cha acter rf a forlorn criminal who has become a subject of interest for a novelist in search of "copy."

He ■aw one day roaming about Paris—a not uncommon sight—a group of men and women put against u wall to be shot. Their hands were supposed to be blackened with powder. Among them was a lad of twelve or [ fourteen, who, before the order to shoot ' could be given, stepped forward and begcod to bo allowed to take back the watch his mother had lent him. He produced a huge turnip of a watch and promised faithfully to return. Mr. Austin said It was a moment of I anguish. None could be sure that the ' child was telling the truth, but the olll | cer commanding, giving him kick, j said, "l)e off with you!" The child ran ' away. »he order to shoot rang out, but the horrid business was hardly over before the clatter of feet was heard, and the boy reappeared round a corner and, putting himself against the wall, pre pared for death. It was Impossible to kill that heroic little soul. "It renews one's faith In human na ture," said Mr. Austin. Wanted.
