He was then, as he Is now, devoted to Iowa and solicitous for the state's welfare educationally, agriculturally, and in every way. During, his: months in the United States senate, as the appointee of Gov. Carroll, he seemed to be much the same sort of man he was when" he was in the state senate a bit more contained, surely not less eloquent," and apparently no whit less devoted to the welfare of the common people.

Ford, Representative. Ifetr York Office 903 Tribune W. "ward Damon, Representative. LORIMER This newspaper expects to se'e Senator Lorlmer's seat declared vacant If the question Is submitted to a vote of the senate prior to the November election.

The senate's first decision in favor of Senator Lorimer was submitted to what amounted to a 'recall" election in Illinois a few weeks ago, and was "recalled" by an enormous majority. The public mind Is made up against Senator Lorimer in Illinois and elsewhere. Any senator who votes contrary to public opinion is likely to find a recall operating in his own case. The ousting of Senator Lorimer as a matter of politics is as logical as anything well could be. Senator Lorimer would not be ousted from the senate If his case could be tried by stric standards of Justice, free from the political motive.

The senate's first decision that a convincing case; had not been made against Senator Lorimer was strictly -In accord with the rules of justice as observed in any tribunal charged. with administering it. Had the political motive been kept out of the first hearing the verdict In the senators favor would have been practically unani-lious. The second hearing was demanded on the ground that new evidence had been uncovered since the senate first passed on the case. This new evidence, it was claimed, would show that a $100,000 fund had been raised and disbursed to secure the election of the senator.

The r.ew Investigating committee went all over the whole case without finding that a single dollar had actually been contributed to the Lorimer corruption fund. All it found was that one man, who had never been a personal or political friend of the senator, claimed to have been approached by a Lorimer supporter and invited to contribute to such a fund, after the election had been over." This witness' testimony as to ths meeting at which the invitation was offered was contradicted by several witnesses. As to the fund itself, the books, papers, bank records and other effects of the alleged custodians were raked with a fine tooth comb without disclosing a sign of the fundL Practically the case today stands just where It did when the senate's first finding was reached," for the rumor of the $100,000 corruption fund was then in Circulation. The only way In which it has since been strengthened is by the uncorroborated and contradicted testimony ot a single witness. A verdict against Lorimer now.

will mean a yielding to public opinion that the senate was not eady to make two years ago. And yet everybody Is ready to assume that it will be made now because the pressure has increased and it is humanly natural for politicians to play politics first and think of other things afterwards. The verdict against Lorimer when it comes will be largely of newspaper promotion. At least 90 of every. 100 newspaper readers believe Senator Lorimer guilty and feel that he ought to be ousted.

They have gathered the Impression majnly from the headlines and comments in newspaper columns. No doubt the most effective point against Lorimer in the-minds of many was made when the newspapers told that a certain distinguished politician had refused to sit at the same dinner table with Lorimer. A little later the Fame distinguished citizen crossed his legs under the same tabie with "Boss" Cox in Ohio, and the fact went unnoticed by headline writers or readers. The point is that nine of every ten persons who so sure Lorimer should be ousted did not read the testimony against him. and are wholly unfamiliar with details of the case.

Yet their opinions are to be sufficiently important to determine its outcome. It may be said that it will be better for all concerned, with the unimpor tant exception of the senator himself and his family, to have Senator Lorimer dismissed in disgrace than to have the alleged corruption in connection with -his ejection remain a disturbing influence In our polities It may be said. that the senate has a moral right to dismiss a maa "on suspicion" for the good of its own reputation. The Journal cannot agree to either proposition, however popular such agreement might be. It prefers to stand by the old role of justice that -a man should be proved guilty before -being punished, and that any Interference with his claim to the legal and moral right to such treatment cannot be helpful to our institutions.

Washington Times: The general public has taken such a keen Interest in the affairs of Dr. Wiley for so many years, even when those affairs were most personal, that he will have to pardon the effort, which Is already apparent, to help him raise the baby.

According to a usage long established, no new baby can come Into the community and be allowed to "just grow." Suggestions as to the best method of raising babies come as naturally from all sorts and conditions of people as do recipes for curing a cold. They are all different, but each Is infallible. According to all the laws of hygiene, the pure food baby should have a model infancy. In his capacity as head of the family the proud father is already outlining the regimen which is to be pursued. The young hopeful is not to be coddled too much or weaned too sjoii.

It is to be taught self reliance and elf denial at a time of life when other infants are indulged in vocal cravings for the moon. It is to lead a prophylactic-existence in a sterilized medium and thereby grow strong and prosper. It is not venturing too much to way that there are venerable mothers of four girls and five or six boys or so, scattered throughout the countrv, who will hear with lofty-scorn of the scientific by-laws by which Baby Wiley is to be raised. Serene in the confidence that a peck of dirt and an abundance of catnip ten are sufficient to bring any baby to healthy maturity, they will look down upon the theories borrowed from the laboratory. A congress of experts cbuld not persuade them that -ing the paint off a tin rattle and, iat.r on, sneaking forbidden fruit Irom the green apple tree do not, on the whole, conduce to long life.

That chartered wildling, the barefoot boy with cheeks of tan, still remains the ideal. Of course, it isn't true, and the experts have allowed us now and then to look through the microscope and see that germs are the pestilence which walketh in darkness and the destruction that wasteth at noonday, but the tradition will survive. Let us hope that Baby Wiley, in spite of his scientific raising, will disappoint the predictions of the catn'p school and grow up with nothing more than the normal amount of aches in his tura-tum and the pains of teething. Certainly a large circle of friends look on with anxious interest and, sharing the common admiration for "our little solves reformed in finer clay," wish the pure food baby a ripe old age. For Truo Representation.

Chicago Tribune: Some day the republican party vM rid itself of the dead weight of southern misrepresentation. It may be by action in the national convention this year, or it may be delayed for some other convention to apply rationality to the nomination of candidates and the government of the party. 'It will come. There Is much thundering againht the iniquities of federal machine rule in the south. It would seem to be a common sense procedure to strip the postmasters, revenue collectors, of the power which is given them by democratic votes.

If they had vcks in the convention in proportion as there were republican votes in their states they would become greatly diminished absurdities in the councils of the party. The preferential primary is one means of making the nomination of candidates a true expression of popular will. A reconstruction of the delegate system in convention is another. The states are providing themselves with primary laws. It remains for the national convention to change the rules of the party organization so that the states have authority and power as they have republican votes.

Then the party will be on a solid basis of equity and honesty. Tho Lucky TJninstructed. Topeka State Journal: Among the delegates to the Chicago and Baltimore conventions who will have decidedly the best time of it are those who will go un-instructed. Won't they be feted and handled with gloves during the preliminaries? All of the candidates and their managers will be willing servants at their beck and call. Bargain Prices.

Louisville Courier-Journal: It is understood that rye highballs will cost a quarter each in Baltimore during the convention, but will be regarded as a bargain by those who want to forget what their hotels are charging them so they can take an interest in politics. Only Bryan Knows. Omaha Bee: There Is more truth than political buncombe in the statement that probably neither Wilson nor Clark will have a two-thirds majority on the first ballot. Just how many ballots Mr. Bryan will give them in which to make good is not certain.

A Wise Old Indian Chief. Youth's Companion: Several years ago the government forbade polygamy among the Indians an order that was net, it seems, implicitly obeyed. Quanah Parker, chief of the Comanches, told the committee on Indian affairs that many of his tribe had more than one wife. The committee directed him to tell the offenders that this conditions of affairs must cease; that the extra wives must be sent home to their parents. At a later session Parker appeared before the committee.

"Did you tell your bucks that they must have only one wife. Parker?" "Yes, me tell "urn." responded the Indian. "Did they get rid of the extra wivesr VYes; all gone," answered the chief. "But." urged a committeeman. i am told that you yourself have six wives." "Yes, me got six," said Parker.

"Now that will not do. Parker. You have got to get rid of those extra wives. You go home and tell them to leave. Send them back to their parents.

Tell them to go home." "You tell urn!" responded Parker. Not Worth Much. Detroit Free Press: "Is that dog of yours very valuable? "I guess not. I've only lost him once in two years." TRANSGRESSION.

It would be perfectly easy for the colonel to subscribe to the pledge, "Under no circumstances will I be a candidate for or accept- a fourth nomination." It would not preclude him from explaining four years hence, "Of course I meant a fourth consecutive nomination." Contrary to the rules, this particular "noun dawg" seems to like music. Else why does he stick so close to the bandwagon? i Mother Wiley will have plenty of time" to look after politics while Father Wiley" is at home analyzing the baby's food and seeing that the bath water is within a fraction of a degree of the correct temperature.

Nothing scheduled to happen, Chicago or Baltimore is likely to interfere seriously with the June wed-iling crop. The Illinois. Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Maryland and California results all were described as decisive. If the OhlJ result is accepted as equally decisive there will be no rest for th-i eary campaigners Whatever may happen, the colonel can't be cheated out of at least five months of bully scrapping. With the exception of South Dakota the delegate winning will be all over by the 1st of June.

Then there will be two weeks for arithmetic and think ing before the convention. It is said that 60 per cent of Brazil nut is oil. This must refer to a period early In life. After which comes New Jersey, after which comes South Dakota, and it begins to look as if outh Dakota might get some advertising out of it after all. i Having been tested by fire.

"The democrats may as well laugh while the Taft-Roosevelt row is on, for their season of worry will come after Clark is avs the rej Moines Tribune.

"The fact that he has made many political blunders since he left the Whit House has not robbed him of the confi dence of the people," says the Webster City Freeman-Tribune, speaking of Roosevelt. "The result of the primaries where the people have had opportunity to express their choice abundantly proves this." "If Taft had used the big stick during the first year of his occupancy of the presidential chair, think how much trouble he would have saved himself," says the Waterloo Courier. The Clinton Herald says that no more encouraging sign of the progress of the country is to be found than the increasing demand on the part of the farmers for the building of permanent roads. Some of the Holden papers say "the farmers are demanding Holden for governor." "If that is so." the Mar-shalltown Times-Republican comments, "the farmers are down cellar talking in whispers." i The Waterloo Times-Tribune says that Roosevelt iot only ruined the La Follette and the Cummins candidacies, but by letter and on the stump, fee has belittled them, spoken in terms i of derision of their candidacies and announces himself as the Moses. has stolen the progressive thunder and destroyed the progressive the Times-Tribune continues.

"He took no part in th progressive fight, which has been going on for three years, but jumped in as leader, manager, band, parade and all only a few months ago brushing the faithful leaders aside as so many dummies. "In the brief space of time to primary day. candidates are making the average feel that he is a human being-," 'says the Dabwque Telegraph- lieraw. The Cedar Rapids Gazette says that Senator Kenyon combines those elements which appeal to the young republicans of Iowa honesty, courage and ability. The Perry Chief says that Congressman Prouty ought to enjoy the recreation of a campaign without opposition the first in his experience.

"As the tim for the 'June primary draws near, local candidates are putting on more steam and from now on it will be a sprint to the finish." says the Mason City Times. "If the high cost of living Is due to th overproduction of gold, cannot some one shut off in that production?" suggests the Cedar Jtapids Republican. "But Is It not more due to the underproduction of eatables?" The Muscatine Joumalsays that Senator Kenyon Is no copy or faint tracing of another man who has gone before, but a fine upstanding figure in his own right, a virile leader, a hater of shams and hypocrisies, a servant of the people who believes in and. above all, a disciple, a militant disciple, of honest polities and representative government. "In his public and private life, he typifies the soundest kind of republicanism," says the Council Bluffs Nonpareil, referring to Senator Kenyon.

"He Is the kind of a man and his record is the kind of a record which the party must con tinue to put forward if it would continue in the confidence of the public aa whole." Omaha World-Herald: Mr. Roosevelt is taking particular pains to make It plain that if he Is refused a nomination at Chicago he will bolt, It will be impossible! for Mr. Taft to win Jn convention except by adverse Roosevelt In the contests from Indiana. Michigan, Kentucky and a number of southern states. In the preconvenUon statement Issued with Mr.

Roosevelt's sanction from Toledo last Thursday it la said of the In-. dia na convention Tho noTur Eimnortlne Mr, the In- dianapoli's Star, stated that the conven- tion was a fraudulent uis u-iriv th rfnnscvelt men sgrace and that had it. and to Instruct the delegates for Taft was a naked steal. Of the Kentucky convention Chief Justice O'Rear furriished to the president the names and positions of fed-oral officeholders who took part in frauds that would- have disgraced the worst days of Tweed. The president is directlv responsible for permitting these frauds! and no man can honestly profit by them.

1 Of Michigan and covering the situation generally: I In this state the contests: of the Taft delegates have literally no foundation hntocor Th Tuft rfpleeation renresents not merely fraud, but violence. It has no claim wnaiever 10 oe consiuerea iu represent any republicans. In Michigan, as in Indiana and Kentucky, t'ne rt Kir tha nQtiAnal rrrrTX iff Taft delegates would be a deliberate vio lation or tne popular win ana wouin ic-lieve ail republicans of any duty or re-snpet rif nnv convention in which these men exercised a controlling part. This also applies to many of the Taft dele-g-ates from the southenn states. The meaning of this is unmistakable.

Mr. Taft can be nominated, if at all, only by the deciding of these contests in his favor. In that event "all republicans" would be of any respect or duty to the convention" baldly, all Roosevelt supporters would be expected to bolt. What is the convention to do abouLJt? Nominate Taft, and so insure two republican conventions and two republican tickets in the campaign; or make a virtue nf rf'fpssitv. nominate Roosevelt with a Lwhoop.

and go into a campaign in which one republican ticket can worn uoin eiuea of the street? The gentle reader is allowed one guess. CALIFORNIA WOMEN VOTERS. New York Tribune: Dispatches from California say that the women voted in the primaries just the way the men did. Their participation made no difference in the result, except, of course, to increase the vote polled and correspondingly the majorities. That is to say, they were not more radical or; conservative than their husbands and brothers, so that from each thousand women each candidate received practically the same support that he did from each thousand men voting at the That corresponds with the result everywhere else.

It is not possible to point to- any substantial difference made by giving women the suffrage. They merely swell the majorities that would be cast by the male users of the ballot in any event. Chicago Record-Herald: Several correspondents are explaining to the states that have no woman- suffrage that in California the fair sex "voted as the men did" at the presidential primary election. The result was not. it is stated, affected by the votes of the newly enfranchised women.

Well, what is there strange in this? How, indeed, could it be What is there in the Roosevelt-Taft contest to create a "battle of sexes?" What is 'there in the tariff, the trusts, the cost of living and other issues to cause the point of view to depend on eex? Women" may be peculiarly Interested in certain problems affecting children, "municipal housekeeping," health and civic purity and decency; and in local politics votes for women may really bring about material changes. Certain types of politician would have no chance with the women; certain issues would be pushed to the front. as regards general state and national issues women naturally and inevitably "vote as men do," for they read the same books and papers, are reared in the same families and circles, are prompted by the same motives. Is this an argument for or against equal suffrage? It has been used both ways, but it is important as fact ami truth, first or last. "He's Got Him on the List." Washington correspondence of the New York Tribune: According to an intimate friend and ardent supporter of Col.

Roosevelt there are innumerable victims marked for slaughter if the colonel comes ht own. Those maiked include men from every walk in life, from the most prominent senator to the humble newspaper man. Kvery one who has dared oppose the colonel's ambition to break all precedents and enjoy a third term in the White House, consciously or unconsciously, carries about with him Ids impending fate, which hangs over him like the sword of Damocles. The latest addition to the list, according to rumor current in the national capital, is Dr. Clarence J.

Blake, of the Harvard medical school, who has asserted that "noise is barbarous." Both senators and representatives who enjoy, or pretend to enjoy, the confidence of the colonel assert that the ex-president regards this declaration as "peculiarly and characteristically insulting" to himself and they say of Dr. Blake "he's got him on the list, he never will be missed," The Greatest Battleship. New York- Tribune: For the time be- ipg the stars and stripes float over the greatest battleship afloat the Texas, a $10,000,000 giant of the seas which was launched at Newport News. And a magnificent monster she Is, with a length of 573 feet, beam of sUghtly more than 95 feet, and a displacement of 23,367 tons. Larger in every way than any of the fighting craft of foreign -nations, the Texas wttl be the first vessel to carry 14-lnch guns, of which she will have ten.

and will be unique also in that she will carry 5-Inch rifles in place of the 3 and 4 inch, which, as a rule, eiuip the secondary batteries. All people hope for the day of world peace, but so long as the nations of the earth are going ahead Increasing their armaments year to year it Is gratifying to Americans to know that we have the greatest of all battleships. And It is comforting also to know that the massive warship was built In the brief period of thirteen months. Merited Praise. New York Tribune: The Lake Mohnk conference last week was right in commending the president's effort for general arbitration- treaties as an "illustrious service" and in expressing the belief that In that memorable effort he represented the great popular sentiment of the American people.

It is a lamentable reproach that such service should have been even temporarily baffled and annulled by a jealous unwillingness to let the president have the credit and prestige of so noble an achirement and by a mean and spiteful desire to "put him Into a hole- A Horse on Bristow.

But a forme- lemploye of his says that when he was at Salina the Congrasslonal Record came daily and was never opened, Joe Invariably throwing it in the wastebasket the moment it appeared. However, those were days when Senator Bristow was not making speeches in the Congcesisonal Record.

Haskin.) Sonsonate, Salvador. Sonsonate Is the second city of Salvador, and when one hears the natives speaking of it for tho first time he. is likely to confound it with "Cincinnati." It is situated in the coastal plain region of Salvador, and Is. therefore, the center of the sugar growing section of the republic. A large number of the sugar estates of Salvador are owned by foreigners, some of them by Americans.

Among these foreign owners of Salvadorean sugar properties are the futher and brothers of Johnny Molssant. the reckless pioneer avl.Mor, who was killed by a fall something over a year ago. Moisnant was something of a soldier of fortune, and there ws a saying after his death that at bast three Central American presidents slept better thereafter, for Moisant had hi finder in almost every revolutionary pie baked in that region. The railroads of Salvador are British built, and their bonds Kre B-itish o-vned. The government pays a heavy subsidy to them, and In this way the bulk of Salvadorean debt Is secured by debentures on the railways.

Most of the mining interests are also in the hands of the Kng-lish and there J.re go'd and silver mines which pay well. While the lmrchan-dising business is largely in the hands of the Germans, the 1'nited Stales Is able to hold first place in the matter of sales of goods supplies to Salvador, with Knglanl a close second. 1" ttu matter of exports the 1'niled States again holds the place of piimacy, with Germany in second position. While tn! German merchant does -ield to any person in his love for the land of W.t birth, he is yet ready to buy where he can buy the best, so when the Knglish drummer cornea around with better prices than the German salesman ran offer him, he Is not averse to malting the most of it. Indeed, there are stores owned by Germans over whose doors is the legend "Ciudad de which means "City' of London." These are encountered in many of the republics.

A study of the foreign trade statistics reveals the fact that in spite of Its dense population, Salvadur is able to keep a remarkable balance uf trade in its favor. The country exports nearly double as much as it imports, the annual export trade amounting to tT.Soo.ficrt as compared with an import trade of $3,7,00. i '). In other words, although more than half of the area of Salvador Is made up of volcanic mountains, the country yet able to support a population more than seven tirn-s as dense as that of the United States and in addition thereto to sell produce amounting to ti per capita over and above home consumption and Few countries In the world can show better results than this. Nevertheless the foreign bondholders who hold Salvador's obligations are somewhat nervous about the financial condition of the republic.

It may b- Muted on direct authority that Kngland's representatives in Salvador do not se how the country can continue to meet its heavy interest charges, and confessedly a feeling obtains that there is imminent danger of default. Salvador will probably fight off such a catastrophe as long as possible, for this country has a reputation of meeting its obligations promptly, no matter how much hardship the payments entail. Miny conditions have led up to this embarrassing situatn. To begin with. Salvador has been much burdened with the necessity of maintaining a heavy military establishment, largely through the pretentions of Guatemala aimed against is, independence.

The Salvadoreans complained bitterly to Secretary Knox about this, and it Is hoped that the complaint has done good. Then there were many considerations which made it highly desirable that good highways should be built, and these represented a heavy drain upon the treasury. Add to these things the railroad subsidy and the Interest on the national debt, which amounts to iU.OXr.O), and it will be seen that there have been very heavy drafts upon the treasury. In fact, during a period of ten years ending in 1910 a deficit of over lT.Ouu.OM colones, colone being worth about ii cents, was created. Salvador has set aside a special lot of customs duties foe SEES DANGER IN PRECEDENT FIRE CHIEF DISCUSSES CLAIM OF LEEDS WOMAN.

OTHERS MIGHT FOLLOW LEAD Real Protection in Suburb Is Afforded by Volunteers, Says Kellog-g One Day Vacation Shortened by Few Hours. Fire Chief Georg-s M. Kellogg sees many dangers ahead for Sioux City if the claim of $500 for loss by fire, which has been filed against the city by Mrs. May Itoyky, of Leeds, is allowed. It would set a precedent, the chief thinks, that every individual or firm that loses by fire might profit by.

Since no special negligence contributed on April 25. more than on other days, to weaken the Leeds fire fighting service. Chief Kellogg declares Mrs. lioyky's claim is unreasonable. Mrs.

Royky asserts her fire loss was caused by the fact that on the date mentioned no fireman was stationed at Leeds. Chief Kellogg replies that It has been a custom of twenty years' standing to keep only one man at the Leeds station, and to allow him one day off each week. The real protection of Leeds homes has been the volunteer company, said Chief Kellogg. A combination chemical and hoee waton affords necessary' apparatus. At the Itoyky fire the volunteers were on the scene with hose.

The chief admits they were slow in arriving. In the case of the lone fireman at Leeds, Chief Kellogg declares his "day off has bn cut from twenty-four hours to eighteen hours. Recently it has been decided to send another man to take his place on the day he is entitled to be off. AN ESSAY ON HUSBANDS. Hints on How to Keep Life Partners in Leash After Marriage.

Kate Maaterson, In Life: To select and win (catch) a husband is a simple task compared with that of keeping him in leash afterward. You will have to decide early if he is the sort that may be kept soggy and good natured with well cooked food or if he is the nervous, temperamental kind that must be impressed with the faults that he is constantly committing. Get him in the habit of apologizing for something at least once a day, preferably (by choice) before breakfast. This will start the day on the right basis. It la well with the nervous husband to adopt the manner of one who has made a serious mistake in marrying a tyrant.

This only if he be like to Mr. Pipp. But if he be domineering and masterful, treat him like a child and praise his good disposition even though his temper may be hot like flame. -And do not argue (nag) with him. or he will be quick to make it an excuse for staying out late.

There is a great deal of Phaiisaical fulmination now against a third presidential term, all directed, of course, toward Roosevelt.

There is little point to the arguments advanced and no logic or reason no more than there was to the arguments of the Pharisees of old against the teaching of the lowly Nazarene who wanted to supplant the rigid observance of precedent and adherence to fossilized rules with the law of reason, progress and Iqve. Council Bluffs Nonpareil. The colonel will not be offended by the may have thought of it himself. He can stand it without blushing. In the colonel's estimate there is nothing too good for him.

and it Is possible he thinks, being what he holds himself to be. that he has exercised humility worthy the best type of which the world has knowledge. But T. withal, is a politician, and some things It is not discreet for the politician to say, lest, for instance, he run into religious prejudice. Otherwise the colonel might say it for himself and more epigrammaticaliy.

The' colonel has likened himself unto Lincoln, revered as the savior of the union, and under whose leadership the blot of human slavery was re moved from the standard of the republic. Yet Lincoln vaunted not himself. His simple address at the dedication of the battlefield at Gettysburg, remembered and. repeated on every Memorial day. placed a tender wreath on the brows of the men who fought and died in the ranks.

Lincoln never boasted of himself. "When he was called to the presidency he had misgivings, and during. all the fearful time of war he maintained a contrite heart, was not puffed up, and his daily supplication was that he might see the right and do the right. It is a strange imagination capable of picturing the colonel in that relation. can be no compromise," he said the other day.

"Some of our opponents are saying that neither Mr. Taft nor I should be nominated. I'll name the compromise candidate. He will be me." This expresses more than confidence in winning the nomination. It smacks of determination to seize When the colonel was assured of a second term he pledged that under no circumstances would be be a candidate for another term.

He recognized "the wise custom" which has governed from the beginning; but he has broken his word and repudiated the unwritten law he pronounced wise. He is not only a candidate for a' third term, but he is presenting himself as the only man worthy of popular confidence. Any other nomination, he has. said, would be the nomination of a reactionary. He could as well say that four years hence, if he should be returned to office, and he could keep on saying it to the nd of life.

And yet there -is talk of a self governing coupled with emphasis of helplessness apart from the one man representative of "the really and truly Christian ideals." On this hypothesis Teddy flung his hat into the ring and gloated madly over knocking them through the ropes. "The lowly Nazarene," to be sure! Whenever somebody suggests something you do not like, but against which you are not prepared to put up a convincing argument. It i not necessary for you to remain b.ent. First show your teeth, then make a gesture with your right hand as if sweeping away a cobweb and remark explosively: "That is a torn fool proposition." In'a certain contingency, no doubt, the famous seven diminutive executives would feel warranted in getting together again and Issuing a "We told you so" proclamation. lower house of the Massachusetts legislature has taken time by the forelock and voted to ratify the constitutional amendment providing for the popular election of United States senators.

The colonel already has bolted enough district and stated conventions to supply a complete answer to that question. "I would have preferred to keep this campaign down to a pure discussion of principles, but Mr. Taft has refused, to allow it to be waged on those lines." When the future historian goes through the record In search of "bits of humor;" this will be classed as one of the funniest of the lot- After all, why should the. national committee's work be harder this year than it was in 1308?

Des Moines Capital has an extended editorial, signed by A. Weaver, associate editor, in reply to a heedless assault upon CoL Young's record as a member of the state senate.
