THE NEW PARTY. Th most obvious fact about the newly organized "third party" in its lmpracticallty. The main trouble ?m to that its promotfis are a little too arnfst. an.i hence deficient In a caving sensf. of humor which means proportion and common rense. Here are veral prour., several schools of political and economic thought, with little in common except a fpirit of radicalism and a feeling of deep dissatisfaction with th older parties. Afcide from this mood, and in th purely intellectual part of their programs, they have as much quarrel with each othr aa with, the republicans and democrats. It did not feem possible from the start that so heterogeneous a party could pet anywhere. The very Idea of a political party implies unity of thought and purpose, and that unity must be bisod on some fairly simple idenL The "Farmer-Labor" party seems less a political organization than a political mob. True, there are vttal differences, too, within the ranks of the republicans and the democrat?, but if either of the older parties were ppllt up Into constituent parts bavins; no logical connection with each othr. It would harcTly mafc more than two clearly defined parties. The new party has the makings of half a dozen. Discontent, thus loo-Fery organized, possibly poll a considerable number of votes in nn unsettled year, when eo many citizens hay some political Krjrvance, or hav beer po partisanly poisoned as to imarin they have. It cannot possibly win an lection, though. That requires something more positive, deSnite, constructive and comprehensible. Th new party may therefore be expected either to disappeAr, as to many minority parties have done in this country, or else, nrentually, to lough off its own minorities and, tinder the leadership of its strongest elemeX'.t, force recognition and amount to omethins:.

A PUZZLE IN PSYCHOLOGY. It Is Just aaoöierof those mysteries of the human mind that briny wrrnXles of confusion to the norrnnl mratalltTf the oonfrs.sion Jvat made by a for.ner urmy oßcar in Chicago that he murdered his yours wiCa mA. her unborn babe and the man he had hired to mrUsa a fake robbery in his home. It was a tixrfülafcT JStory the ex-lieutenant told following Uie 6toot2n. but aa days passed the Chicago police fancied they saw something in the narrativo that repaired clearisg up and the confession reunited after the muroVerer had toM not less than 16 different Körles of the crime. An intruder, according to hia flrw etory, had killed the lieutenant's brido In an attempt At robbery, and had then been phot down by the ymmp hupband who rushed to the rescue m resrponso to the -wife's cmtcry. Thea roUee learned that the army revolver betide the dad Vobber hs,d been borrowed hy the husband from his wife's brother several days before the tragedy the young husband broke down And confessed to killing both his wife and the supposed robber who really was a paid confederate to help CArry out tfca cene. The eonfessioo. that he was tired of his yountf wife, weary of civtl life, and killed his wife and unborn child -with the confederate "robber" to pret the dead womin" money ro he could cn back to the easy life of the nrmy. Is what stampers the sane mind.

GETTING READY TO ABANDON THE "FRONT PORCH." That Kentucklan who bet $1.000 that CfOv. Cox would dr1v Sen. llnrdinff off his front porch brforo the camt-aisn had processed for a month. Already teems quite certain to win h;s mone. Mr. Henry M. Daupherty. the senator's pre-cocvention campaign manaper, is amer.s the first to back water on thp n ibject. He wants it bellt ved now that a. "front ;'rrh rampsl,;n was nver contcmr lated; h?d at Iran: never ben tit finii'Iv d-ci-Jd upon."

FEW FAILURES. Th'j total number of business failures reported last month va.s the smallest since 1831. The number of failures so far in July U less than it was :n the fame period last year. That tells its own story. The facts are particularly eloquent at a time when the shoe and textile Industries are doing a deal of croaking, and when there is considerable pessimism rinding vent in some of the other big industries. The immediate past certainly showa no evidence of ruin, and does not forphadow ruin. When failures are the fewest in 40 years, at a time when the nation's banks have been systematically restricting credit, conditions must be fundamentally ound. The croakers v.Ill s till Insist that there will be more failures recorded in the next few months. Tu.ere may be more, but there will not be many more If business men generally ue good judgment, and neither try to keep prices Inflated to their recent danger rolnt, nor smash the price isytnem all at once, but aim at sustaining a strong, steady demand for goods by adjusting price levels to rive a fair and moderate prutit. Even textile and shoe industries may get out of trouble if they follow this policy.

OPPORTUNITIES IN BURGLARY. Light-lingered gentry of elastic conscience have discovered a new way to make a living without workins. An epidemic of robberies ha.s greatly increased the number of fake burglaries where insurance is held, burglary insurance comranies report. An automobile, a fur coat or costly jewels are stolen, the owner reports to the police. The Insurance company is notified, and usually the claim is paid. If the investigation becomes too thorough however, the "stolen" article often mysteriously reappears. The business would seem to offer great opportunity for the ambitious. If the fake "theft" is successful, the owner not only gets his insurance money but has his property as well. Over arson, for instance, this plan has great advantages, since in the former the owner loses the building.

The government is experimenting with a machine gun that is said to be entirely noiseless. Maybe the Fame principle could be applied to phonograhs and pit. no-players.

Of course the two-party system works best for this country, but it looks Just now as if it would take about 14 parties to give every voter one to his liking.

At this time of year there Is no better remedy for whatever political Ills the country is heir to than to go swimming. That is, unless you prefer fishing

We are unable to gTant the request of a reader who asks us to compare the democratic and republican platforms. There is no comparison.

Although Mr. Harding wants to climb to the presidency from the front porch, he could hardly be called a pt rch climber.

Would as much quibbling by the losers have been permitted if Germany had won? Is the moon made of green cheese?

The latest dope is that food prices will fall in the fall. Do we fait for it?

"Mack'll do!" they yelled, at 2an Francisco. But he didn't.

THOUSAN DS or .STUIKIX (Canton Nous.) Although there were fewer strikes in 1319 than In some previous ytars, they covered more time and included a preater number of persons. According to United Stales Burtau of Uibor statistics there were Z.ZZZ strikes last year. They atTected directly 4.100.000 person?, more than In any former year. The general strike in Tacoma and Seattle involved over 60.000 workers. The Chicago stockjards strike involved 60.00 0; the Atlantic coast longshoremen's strike. 100, OOu; the railroad shop workers' strike. '.'öO.OO; the steel strike, "67. 000, and the bituminous coal strike. 450.000. One hopeful feature is noted. Theo strikes were cf a more peaceful character than labor disputes of other years. There was violence, but usuallv in scattered and isolated instances. Hut whi'.e one is grateful for the decrease in violence and injury to property and human life, one cannot help being impressed with the growth of the strike habit. Going back in thought to the different periods of those strikes and the many smaller ones for which statistics have not been given it is easy to see th.it even if those 4,100,000 strikers ycre idle only one day each, the number of workless days reaches a startling total. In numerous inrt.mces workers struck for Issues other than wage Increases. I?ut many wage rubes ere demanded by this r.ipan. Those wae increases were nearly all needed, too. l- cause of greatly advanced cost of living. It wo',! 1 be interesting, however, and worth study on t!u part of workers themselves, to have Ftatlstit s which show accurately and clearly how much of that iccreaed coFt of living a.s dup to the tying up of. production and distribution by thote 2.253 strikes.

next thing we know they'll be putting up someone else for their candidate, and some such gentleman as Mr. Daugherty with his superabundance of gall, will be denying that Mr. Harding was ever nomlnatM; that this other fellow waa the real candidate all the while. In their super-egotism they think they can pull anything and that the American people, like so many foola, will fall for it. They act like the pekrr player who has dealt himself the ace. king, 'queen and Jack of hearts and knowa the ten spot !s or the bottom of the deck, but a player on the other side of the table watches like a hawk as h deals the fifth card, and, he must deal It from the tor. ar.d not the bottom. It isn't going to be the game of solitaire that the democrats led the republicans so long to anticipate. They have been manufacturing campaign material for the iaet two yars, waating the time of both an extra and a regular session of congress, having numerous "smelling" committees investigating this, that and the other thing, and they haven't dared to take a "definite" stand on any of it; now, not even on the virtues "front porch" oratory. It sort of reminds one of the frog in Aesop's fable. Upon which thLs modern Gamaliel may ruminate dolefully that no man has ver yet been elected to the presidency direct from the United States senate and the "front porch" has that record broken at least.

JUST A DREAM. I dreamed last night of a place 1 know Away out west where "peaches"' grow. Where birds are sinking the livelong day. Out where the farmer is making hayThere the un shines. glorious. grand Over a wondrous beauty land. There's pastures green and shidy nooks. Trees, and rocke, and babbling brooks. Rolling rills and tangled vine. Flowers of fragrant hue divine. Just a speck of nature unfurled That we may love better this beautiful world. G. C. P.

More Truth Than Poetry By JAMES J. MONTAGUE

A RAY OF HO 11-1 A world of ferment has passed into a world perplexed. Nicholas Murray Butler.

Through youth and manhood I've deplored My lack of erudition: To have my head with wisdom - stored Has been my pet ambition. I've grieved to think how very small My stock of higher knowledge. I fancied I would know it all If I had been to college. "There's old Nick Butler." I would "Nobody ever stumps that guy." Yet lo! he rises to confess That lots of things perplex him; He says he hasn't got a guess On mysteries that vex him. He knows thut we are on our way; But where we may be going, The Doc. is frank enough to say He has no means of knowing. Concerning what the years may bring. The Doctor don't know anything. This cheers me up a lot somehow, If all of Butler's learning Has put no bulge upon his brow Nor made him more discerning. It makes me think perhaps that I, In my few years remaining, May very possibly get by Despite my dearth of training. If such is Butler's ignorance. Why even 1 may have a chance!

PARIS HAILS A NEW SCULPTOR Shepherd of French Wine Country Wins Fame in Marble.

WHAT'S IN A NAME

I 'arts about jour tunne: its hitory: its meaning: whence it was lerieil: its iznilicancr: jour lucky jl.iv and lucky jewel. P.Y Ml LI) Hill) MARSHALL.

PARIS, July IS. raul Adolphe Darde, awarded the envied Paris Salon national prize, for hi marbles "Faun" and "Eternal Suffering." is greeted by critics aa a genius, in the real sense of that abused word. Darde. in the simple tellins of his career, stands out among artists. He is not trained, in the academic way. He was a shepherd in the region of Lodeve, in the wine country of southern France. Son of a small farmer, he watched a flock or worked the ground un'il he was 20. He fought in the war and today famous, he is only 31. The big, powerful, blond-headed peasant, began drawing. he says, when he was eight but felt his own way until he took a drawing course in the Lodeve high school and later studied at Montpelier getting, as he says, guidance in his first steps. Through the counsel of his two art teachers he came to Paris. He sp-t.it five weeks here in the government art institute and worked three days in Rodin's studio. With that slim grip of the classic school and the modernity of Rodin, Darde hegan the working in marble and metal that made experience his teacher. "I have no preference in schools" Darde say. "I love all that is beautiful in art as in life." He has betn likened most closely to Itodin, but

he admires first of all the work of i

Jean Goujon and secondly that of Barye s.nd Rodin of modern art. The "Faun" is a massive, vigorous conception, sneering, cynical and sensual. "Eternal Suffering", represents a woman's head, snake-entwined, with a face, upturned, lu anguish and almost distorted as if with physical pain. Darde works directly in marble

JACQUKLINU The most picquant name in the lexicon of feminine appellatives is Jacqueline. Her origin dates far back in Biblical days when one of

the twin sons of Isaac and Rebecca j was called Jacob and the mother j predicted that ho wo ild supplant! the other. Thus his name came to ! signify "the supplanter" and Jac- . QUeline, which i derived from this ' source has the same significance. As the derivatives of Jacob spread 1 throughout Europe, France adopted '. Jacques. The great church of St. ! Jacques at Liege spread the love ! of the name in Flanders and it was ! when the English and French were 1 mingled together in the camps of the Black Prince and Henry V that the name spread into England. j The feminine Jacqueline had al- j rfady arisen. Henry Y called the!

wild Jacqueline of Hainault, Dame Jack. Sire, like his Flemish sister-in-law, Jacquette of Luxemburg was named in honor of the i-sint of Liege. The nurse of IM ward VI. whom Holbein drew by the soubriquet of Mother Jack was called Jacquette. Jacquelines in France are very numerous and the name Is extremely popular in this country where its ready diminutive, Jack sounds good to Yankee ears. Jade is Jacqueline's talismanie stone. It is said to brirg her allaround good luck and wearing it she will find her heart's desire. Friday is her lucky day and her lucky nu mber. (Copyright, 1SC0.
