They have taken the way of all ways to deepen the resentment of the former Republicans, who have already sundered their party affiliation, and to rouse the disgust of other Republicans, who still hold by the party, but have progressive leanings. Mr. Root and his coadjutors have removed the last possibility of getting back into the fold any of the Republicans who have left it, and they have helped alienate the remnants of their party.

Mr, Barnes reply shows that he does not take kindly to the Straus, idea, but the I most remarkable thinjf about the Republican State Chairman's com- ENGLISH TO BURN. Mr. Edmund Gosse, English author, scholar and critic, believes that English-speaking nations will never again produce a great poet. The reason assigned by Mr.

Gosse is a curious one. He thinks the English language is dying of old age. For the poet' of the future, we must go to some nation whose language is just forming, and which can supply fresh phrases and vivid word-painting. Mr. Gosse is wrong in his major premise, that the English language is suffering from decrepitude.

So far "from there being too little left to express the emotions of poetry, there is so much English that Mr. Gosse, learned as he is, never mastered a tenth of it. The best thing Mr. Gosse could do to clear up his ideas, would be to count" the words in the dictionary. By the time he had finished that task, he would be a very tired man, and he would have come across enough words he had never seen before, materially to alter his conception of the feebleness of English.

And new words are being coined all the time. It is true there is alive today no English poet of the first rank. But can Mr. Gosse name a living poet of the first rank in any nation which doesn't speak English? The lack of poetry is due to some great change in the human mind, and the. change seems to be world-wide.

Just now, thought is cast in prosaic mold. Sometime, like as not, man's intellect will take another twist, and then it will soar into poetry and metaphor to an extent which will delight any Gosses who happen to be extant, appal the editorial mind, and multiply by three the supply both of poetry and i i munication tie joUowing.

And then I knew 'twas night. question of the hour is how to ensure the people adequate partici-1 pation in the exhaustless fund of energy proceeding from the great cataract.

It is this point the -central point of the whole electric situationto which Senator'Gittins addresses himself. In all probability, the question whether the supply of Niagara Falls power shall be increased to 20,000 cubic feet per second will baanswered at the next session of Should this' increase be allowed, there will be a surplus of 4,400 eubic feet per second over the power now used, and the query put in salient relief by Senator Gittins' argument is, who shall enjoy the benefits and reap the profits of this extra Shall the people have-it? Or shall the corporations get it? Senator Gittins holds that the ownership df this great reserve capital of energy a capital more Valuable than money hould be inalienably vested in the people. Of the justice of that proposition there can be no doubt." The people are the owners of the cataract from which the power is derived, Every, electrical franchise, must come from the people. They have been liberal with these franchises. Fortunes have been made; and more fortnues are in the making, from utilization of the Niagara Falls industrial energy.

Money ii used up after a while, but the river flows on forever. The wealth it produces is an eternal entail, descending to the remotest gen- eration. Much of this incomparable estate in perpetuity has been diverted from the people. Have they not given enough? Is it not time for the limit to be marked, the Thus far shalt thou go and no farther" Bounded? Senator Gittins has done well to bring this matter before the people of the Niagara Frontier.

It is their heritage which is trembling in the balance. Shall they keep it for themselves and their descendants? Or shall they permit it to be frittered away? That is the alternative with which the Niagara Frontier, Buffalo and Vfesteru New York will soon. be confronted. They should get ready it courageously, intelligently, and with a resolute purpose which sfiaftsuTre' the retention of the people's property in the people's hands.
