This probably is the oldest lawsuit in the world. It involves ownership of a disputed piece of land. On a large scale, that’s all that’s the trouble in Europe basically—rival nations and races contesting for land. Alsace-Lorraine, for instance. Courts settled the small land suit. The big similar disputes could be settled, too, by court processes—if nations would respect the court decisions. A war is nothing but a neighborhood row on a big scale. Oysters are to be certified, but even that will not relieve them of the necessity of being identified on certain oceasions. Scooped, By Heck! 'ABLEGRAMS and pictures tell it. Mrs. Chas. D.

Senator, your question is sure a poser. It reminds one of that honest republican patriot, who got up in a na- tional convention and roared, “What are we here for if not for the spoils?” And there’s no question about the Sinclair business depending much on liquidity. It just smeared itself on cabinet folks, from Teddy to Alkali Al, and on mighty journalists, from Ed McLean to Denver Bonfils, and it’s running like a streak of liquid grease yet.

Heresy’s Evolution SPATCHES say that the Protestant Episcopal house of bishops will try Bishop Wm. Brown, of Ohio, on charges of “extreme heresy.” Tt seems that there are degrees of heresy. There is the quiet, mouse sort, which gnaws at the ritual and gradually eats away, bit by bit, the pedestal of orthodoxy, a sort represented by quite a number of preachers, now- adays, Then there is the “extreme,” tigerish sort, which would spring upon and swallow the pedestal at one gulp. Evidently, there’s evolution in the attitude toward heresy. In the old-fashioned times, the minister who was merely suspected of the slightest taint of heresy was chased thru three states, or more, and, sometimes, had to finish his career as “a squaw-man” among the Iroquois or Pequod Indians. For two years, Bishop Brown has been preaching, by mouth or hook, that God, the Savior, and the Trinity are mere symbols, like the Bartholdi statue or the sign over a fish market, and they’ve just arrived at the con- clusion that he’s an “extreme” heretic deserving of of- ficial action.
