il might Ins all right to take an admiral and make

It is only natural to feel that sometimes pernicious

brained young nien who take poison to show their
puppy love for some girl.

Hoods in the first week of February are unusual
in Germany. N'ature appears to have shifted a cog
this winter, both here and in Europe. .Man, how-
ever, has to take what comes in the way of weather.
He nan adjust himself to unusual conditions, and this
is all the choice that lie has. Even if he is able to
cut and run. by packing his grip and traveling to a
different latitude or longitude, lie generally finds
that nature has its surprises for him there, too.
The reader or auditor is tacitly asked to infer that
the bone of contention has been removed, in con-
templation of the kindly spirit that has been impart-
ed to- the jTinciples of the action.
A new play dealing with this problem has just
been produced in Chicago, from the pen of Hamlin
Garlond, a near poet and scientist who affects a neo-
romatic head of hair and n knowledge of phychic
science.
It is .Mr. Garland's happy thought to bring this ir-
pressible conflict to its crisis in a meeting between
the labor leader and the capitalist at a moment when
an impassioned woman explodes a bomb and scares
the capitalist into promising everything, his. em-
ployes ask for.
All these solutions are inconclusive; and the rea-
son is not so much their own weirdness as the inher-
ent impossibility of the task the enthusiastic drama-
tist undertakes.
I lis thesis is the ancient idio>ey that the interests
T labor and capital are identical and, therefore, con-
flict between flic two is illogical.
The fact is, of course, that whenever they come
together for wage sentiments their respective inter-
ests nre not identical, but diametrically antagonistic.
The workmen want the highest wages they can
get: tho company wants the lowest'scale it can en-
force.
It would be quite as sensible to say that when two
keen traders get together over a business transac-
tion their interests are identical. One wants to be
the indefinitely high and the other indefinitely low.
Fortunately civilization has learned to do business
without violence, and it is gradually learning to set-
tle wages without strikes, lockouts ot riots.
But it will be a long time before employer and em-
ploye meet for wage conferences without the differ-
ence of opinion, which makes horse races, for ex-
ample. and maintains a slight discrepancy between'
the "bid" and "asked" columns of the market re-
port.

the right to die.
An Knglish medical journal is much
shocked at the report that physicians
• n Chicago recently obtained an order of
court to enable them to amputate the
srm of a boy suffering from gangrene.
It was necessary to cut off the boy's
arm to save his life, but neither he nor
his parents were willing that the opera-
lion should take place.
The English journal Is of tho opinion
that If the boy wanted to die and his
parents were willing, the surgeons should
have stood aside and "let nature take
her course." That, It says, Is what
would have happened In England; for
the British, it appears, are "accustomed
to a large degree of personal freedom,
and impatient of official Interference."
The same journal goes on to say;
"To perform an immediate operation
without waiting to obtain permisson
* Is one thing; but to resort to
compulsion is quite another." In other
words. If the surgeons had proceeded to
anaesthetize the boy and cut off his arm
without saying what they were going to
do, it would have been all right; but to
obtain the sanction of the le«al author-
ities before tjolrg ahead was an act re-
pugnant to Rrltish idens.
Our transatlantic cousins do not object
to successful fraud, but legal compul-
s'on is distasteful to them.
"The time," concludes our T>ondon au-
thority, "scarcely seems ripe for compul-
sorv operations." It is apparently, how-
ever. fully ripe for small boys with ig-
norant parents to die of gangrenp when-
ever they may be so disposed.—N>w

LAST WEEK AT THE TREASURY.
February is treating Mr. Cortelyou very much as
January did. Friday of last week the revenue
yielded by the import duties, internal taxes, etc.,
came within $270,861 of meeting the day's ex-
penses; Saturday it came within $508,224 of doing
it. When the week began the treasury deficit for
this unfinished fiscal year was $79,814,000 and a few
hundreds over; Saturday night it was $82,450,000
and a few hundred over.
The import duties .yielded 16,236,09ft last week,
and the internal taxes $4.2!)ti,449. Of the $14,540,-
000 that left the treasury last week, $3,880,000 went
in pensions, and $1,960,000 was spent on public
works. The end of the week found $1,346,277,869
in the treasury's trust funds, $157,640,964 in the
general fund, $102,785,325 of government money
deposited in national banks, and $4,027,428 in the
insular treasury at Manila—$1,967,746 of that Phil-
ippine accumulation being subject to Mr. Cortel-
you s order. Saturday night his available cash bal-
ance was $148,696,940 and sixty cents.

Over a thousand poems were submitted in re-

woman for the best verses supporting woman suff-

significance of Spencer's thinking to reach
the citadels of traditional phoilosophy with
its corrosive influences and dynamic flows.
Then Spencer outlived Darwin by twenty-
one years and hlg later life was crowded
to the last with Insistent reiteration of
what he himselt called his "facts and
fancies."
It would be interesting to look ahead
and compare the Spencer centenary with
that of Darwin; for the world will change
somewhat, even in eleven short years.
There ig no doubt but it will be the com-
memorative theme of the year; for 1820
produced no other great thinker, though
it was the birth time of such immortal
spirits aa Florence Nightingale and Jenrij
Llnd. With us were born Susan B. An-
thony, James B Eads, Gen. William *
Sherman (he was John'u senior by three
years). Some considerable attention will
be paid in Canada, no doubt, to the noble
memory of Count de Frontenac, who was
born |n 1620. liue Spencer was the great-
est mind of his year, and perhaps of his
century.
His surpassing genius and strong per-
sonality are brought before us impres-
sively now through the publication of his
life and letters, supplemental to his au-
tobiography, edited by the same hand.
The profoundest impression they will
make, for they touch very little upon
his philosophic system, is In connection
with his intense devotion to individualism
and antipathy to the socialstc tendency.
It s important that all who are called
upon to face the growing demand for
paternalistic activity on the part of gov-
ernment should know and often recall
just to what extreme this great philos-
opher carried his protest against the
communistic principle. This is best
illustrated, perhaps, in his views on edu-
cation.
The current Outlook contains an in-
teresting .summary of Mr. Spencer's let-
ters on this head The cardinal doctrine
of his social philosophy was, of course,
the exultation of the individual. Ever>
thing which smacked of state Interference
with the individual met with blunt and
often caustic opposition. He went so far
as to put the seal of his disapproval on
public schools and free libraries. "The
fact that from the beginning of my po-
litical life 1 have been an opponent of
national education, and continued to be,"
he told Robert Buchanan in 1890, " will
show you that it is the duty of society to
prepare Its individual members for the
battle of life. I hold it to be exclusively
he duty of parents." "I no more approve
•f free libraries," he informed W. A. S.
Hew ins, "than I approve of free bakeries.
Food for the mind should no more bo
given gratis than food for the body should
be given gratis. The whole scheme of
public instruction, be it in free libraries
or by state education, is socialistic; and
I am profoundly averse to socialism in
every form."
One hesitates to brush this stern
philosophy of individualism aside with a
wave of the hand and the curt remark
that it Is hopelessly out of date; yet
nothing can be clearer than the tendency
of the time to run to an extreme
diametrical opposite to Mr. Spencer's
view. The theory, accepted by thinking
men with reluctance, that the state is
vitally concerned, up to the point of!
properly meeting the expense, with the
dlmentary education of all Its citizens
as a protection against overthrow at the
' ands of ignorance, no longer suffices; for j
lie taxpayer is now called upon not j
nly to provide ambitious youths with
diversity training and accomplishments,
but to equip the farmer for the farm, the
machinist for the shop, the surgeon for
the hospital. No one can foresee just
