They take bunks seriously in New York. According to 6 rec- ent U.P. despatch, two enter- tainers there were recently in trouble with the police for giv- ing 0 new line of patter in which one jeered the other for putting his money in the bank "so that he could get a run for his money." All of us naturally like a run for our money, but not a bank run. In the British Empire a man from the eminence of 0 soap box can sound s trumpet, curse the King, the government, and all its works till he is black in the face. And should any loyal citizen try to beat him, up our police promptly protect the orator. I am sometimes strongly tempted to believe that the Am- erican wsy is better than ours. Incidentally snd by the way, 6 cynical friend of mine with an upstanding wife once told me the police might extend their protection with profit.

Good morning, sir it All kinds of reports, laudatory and damnatory, come to us out of Russia. It is wise to rely on the truth of none of them. The Russian, being usually unedu- cated, hss only exchanged the brutal rule of the Czar for the brutal rule of 6 clique of avowed atheists. We can always look for brutality from a Russian, be- cause he is largely Tartar, and of only one thing can we be cer- tain, that whoever governs in Russia will govern cruelly, that is, as we interpret cruelty.
