One of the architectural gems planned for the Louisiana Purchase Exposition at St. Louis will be the Fra ternity Building. The structure will represent an outlay of $150,000 and even a greater sum possibly may be spent in its erection. All of the secret societies and fraternal benefit orders of the country have pledged themselves to contribute to the building fund. The committee in charge, which is made of representative lodge men, among whom are some of the best known citizens of the country, has already agreed on plans for the building, a like ness of which appears above. The actual work of construction is now under way, the site being prominently lo cated on the. fair grounds at St. Louis. it is heresy to say so. Moreover in a democracy it is assumed and taught and preached that democracy assures the people more liberty, greater se curity of the person, family and prop erty and a more inviolate reputation than any other form of government. For this reason we are accustomed to regard our race (the race of dissenters who' landed on Plymouth Rock and in sisted on freedom from that cold day to this) as a particularly meritorious and virtuous division of the human family. The confusion is natural; but it Is nevertheless true that a people may progress and be happy and con serve a splendid literature under a monarchy; see England and Germany and benighted Russia. In order to Insure a government of and by and for the people every voter must be capable of self-government, a development which Implies an ad- vanced stage of civilization. It is the virtue of responsibility for others that it increases one's own ability to look after one's self and hence increases his usefulness to the world. Dr. Abbott's discussion of the prob lems of the Philippines of labor and of capital are timely. They teach tolera tion, patience and a large hope in de mocracy and Its power to make broth ers of the men of all races. In tracing the Hebraic doctrine through the phases of Its original conception among the Hebrews to its most triumphant assertion In America, Dr. Abbott 'is original and convincing. As an optimistic expounder of riddles Dr. Abbott disseminates sweetness and light. There Is not an Intelligent and unprejudiced American who will not be made a better American and a better Christian by reading "The Rights of Man."

It is a matter of speculation in London whether his royal highness will visit America' or India. That he has an important trip in contemplation is known, but his destina tion Is as yet not given out.
