A Meaning Of Hearstism, The record of My. Hearst, ax a pub- | ishar, is cortatinly a remarkable one. Creelman, in Pedrson's, says he has invested $12,000,000 in his papers, that it costs $12,000,000 a year to support | them, that he gets all this money from 'the business men, and that without it he would be bankrupted in six months. He has papers in San Fran- | cisco, New York, (two), Chicago, Hos: ton, and Los Angeles, the combined civeulation of which is over two mil lions. He has the highest salaried men iin the business, eight persons receiving | $222,000 a year, which is more than the nation pays to the president and his cabinet. Dr. Shaw, the editor of the Review of Revibwe, has been studying the man at close range, and concludes that he represents a movement which he did not inaugurate, He has in his service Arthur Brisbane, the son of Albert Brishane who, more than half a cen- tury ago, was the leading exponent of "philosophical socialism in this coun- try." He wrote brilliantly 'and aided in the establishment of one or two short lived attempts' at communistic living on the philansterie plan. His son, Mr. Hearst's chief editor, "has been preaching his daily sermon to a vast constituency of plain American @iti- zens in the metropolis, and Hearstism has been lrishbane's marvelously lucid though offen sophistieal deliverances, clothed in an English garb 'more of fective. perhaps than that employed by any other newspaper writer in Am: erica." ' \ Whore has Hearst come int Hp has practiced what his editor has preach: ed, and has surprised himself at the lengths he has gone. He has followed the attacks of his newspapers on trusts and corporations.: He has car tooned and abused them, He hay posed as the people's tribune, and he has made his work 'spectacular by hiring a clever lawyer and pursuing some People into the courts. He is not a speaker, not an organizer, not an attractive citizen genwrally, but he has the men of ideas by his side, he has the money, and he has the will power. The result is a' demonstration which has tickled him. He has made a better run for office than many ex- pected, because he echoed the gospel of "discontent: He might mot have polled 'ad many votes as the representative of the Independence League, but he would have fared better, however, without {making common cause with Tammany and taken into his embrace the man he cattooned in striped clothes and refer- red 40 #4 the biggest eriminal at large. That was a development of Hearstism which was not expatted and which stgmped him es a demagogue of | the lowest type. Mayor Contsworth, of Toronto, who wanted municipul | elections Tan on rty lines a few days ago, is now mi ¢ ; 3 F i HH irs the effort to fortily them- the place obtained after so strugele.

The cure for all olestion irregularities lies with the reople, and until the better classes as- sert themselves and the power which they undoubtedly possess, there will be trouble. A better election law is a necessity, a law whose provisions will cover the experiences of the last year, but the people must be behind the law or it will not count for much. 22 Jewish Forward Movement. The Jews of Canada, in common with the Jews ofthe world, are re joicing ovér the impulse that has been given to the Zionist movement by the vecent decision of the Turkish oovern ment, The precise terms of the sul tan's edict are not known, but it is understood that his government gives Palestine to the Hebrew race upon conditions which are most acceptable to them. The sultan is an exceedingly fickle gentleman: He will promise any- thine, for peace or effect, but he has violated his obligation over and over again. He is, therefore, seriously mis trusted generally. The Jews mist have some direct and positive evidence of his good faith, since they have begun what is popul- arly relmred to as the "forward movement," and it means the restora- tion of Zion. Thousands of refugees from: Russia have already returned to the Holy Land, and hundreds of thou- sands more arp meditating upon emi- gration thither. So that there will be no change of population likeunto it, in significance, since the release of the captives from Babylon by command of King Cyrus, Nr, De Sola, of Montreal, who at: tended the Zionist conference at Cologne, reporis that if the present expectations are realizetl Palestine, agriculturally, will again blossom like the rose; that the cities will be re built, and equipped with electric lights, railways, the water works, and all the other appurtenances of modern civilization; that all parts of the an- cient. kingdom will be broucht inte connection with steam and electric railways; that steam and electric boats will ply on the Jordan, the Tiead Sea, and the Sen of Miberias; the oth er nations will be brought into touch with Palestine by steam packets, and for their accommodation the harbours on the Mediterranean will be rebuilt. All this means the outpouring of great wealth. Yes, and it is now hope- fully counted - on. The appeal of the Baders is: "Why continue to build the | ition: of other natigns ? Why develop and make prosperous the lands that 'ean never be yours? Youw/have been expecting the recall to the Holy Land, ond now has heen opened that the way for return is made. clear, en- fer into your possessions.' The things for which some people have contended appeared fo be the subject of a 'dream.

A couple of aldermen, one the chair- man of the special committee refused to countenance the arrangement, They realized that the city had nothing to gain by it, and that it might work out disastrously. The reserve fund might be a cavern which would ab sorb large sums of money; the profits might be hidden so that the city can- not find them; there might be wheels within whee}s, and companies within companies, the operations of which would not come within the agreement at all, Is it not remarkable that Montreal, which bas so. many smart business men, cannot get a fw of them into the copneil and use them in settling the gas question, in the interest of the people, once and for all. The monopolists seem to have the munici- pality, mptaphorically speaking, by the throat. +. Editorsal Notes. Mr, Roosevelt. anticipates that Mr. Hearst will be a - presidential sandi- date in 1908.

When the suffering Celt was put in to the chair and saw the gleaming forceps approaching his face, he posi- tively refused to open his mouth. Be ing a man of resource, the dentist quietly instructed his assistant to push a pin into the patient's leg so that when the Irishman opened his mouth to yell: the dentist could get at the refractory®molar. When all was over, the dentist smilingly asked: "It didn't hurt as much as you ex- pected, did it?" "Well, no," reluctantly admitted the patient.
