ItOHKHMIU. OIIB POLITICAL MANAGEMENT. Senator Penrose, whose passing away leaves a large gap in the Unitfd States senate, was called a leader or manager by his party friends, and a boss by others. He represented a type of politician who controlled public affairs to a large extent 20 years ngo. yet has less power today. The old time political boss built up a wonderfully smooth running: machine. It was partly based on the mutual exchange of favors. The man at the top would hand out apjwintments and supjmrt the interests of those lower down, and his underlings would round up the voters and see that they came to the polls. Many people would back up such a system on the theory that on the whole it provided about as good government as could be had, and that it prevented something worse from get ting into power. The trouble in creating machines in these times is that people do not vote the party tickets as regularly as former ly. Previously the henchmen of a political leader could go over the names in a voting precinct, and tell practically how every one would act. It was simply a question of inducing the voters to get out to the polls and creating enthusiasm enough to overcome popular inertia. In these less stable times, the voters can not be thus drilled. The politician who tries to round them up too ag gressively, may induce some to go to the polls and vote against him. The political manager obtains his hold largely from the fact that multitudes of people do not themselves consider public questions thoroughly, and are inclined to look to prominent men and accept their guidance without much thought. That tendency will always exist. The political managers, however, can not hand out their decrees as of old, but must defer to popular sentiment. Men like Penrose learned that fact. In spite of all changes in the times, he was able to adjust himself to new currents of thought, and remain in the senate until the day of his death. THE DAY OF THE IIARMONIZER, For centuries the great conquerors ruled men. The Alexan-j dors, the Caesars, the Kaisers, had their way and commanded the will of multitudes. They promised and obtained plunder and booty for their followers, liut the world got tired of their cruelty and has thrown them out. Then came a period when men appealed more to reason, but when intense antagonisms of party and class spirit maintained the spirit of warfare in the world. The world has become tired of that kind of leadership because it gets nowhere. These are the times when the greatest man is the one who is the best hnrmimizer of conflicting points of view. The world lias been too long upset by such conflicts as the Irish controversy, the race for naval superiority, the scramble for trade privileges in un developed territory, and the conllicl between capital and labor. t t i in any long drawn out controversy, there is usually some merit on each side. It is the business of the statesmen and politi cal and economic leaders, to frame compromises that shall unite antagonistic elements. They must show warring interests that they will lose far more than they can ever gain by fighting each other. Such elforts to reconcile hostile forces as the Washington conference, the Irish negotiations, nml the conciliation of labor and capital, are therefore events that may become landmarks in the history of the world. Business and community life has seen a development of this spirit in the past few years. Formerly business men wasted energy in petty rivalries. Today they tend to forget these smaller issues, and make greater gains through combined eltort. Now if this spirit can prevail between labor and capital and in interna tional rivalries, the world will be a different place in a few years. o . The most disturbing feature in all the wave of crime that is sweeping over the country is not the loss of tho money these thieves are getting. Tho worst of it is in the existence of a body of men and women who have no senses of decency, honor, or grati tude. This country offers education and fair opportunities in life under a democratic form of government. And then having re ceived these blessings, these thieves, like slimy and stinging vipers, turn around and bite the hands that feed them and which have opened the doors of opportunity to them. They take money from hard working people, who accumulated savings by toil anil self denial, and hend it on foul and coarse dissipations. Foitu Juitely the tuinlirr or men and women with such a dirty and yel low streak is not large in proportion to population. Most people Who receive blessings have sonu- desire to be worthy of them. -o ;iXI KVKMN; FOLKS We've got reader's rramp js-rus-ing autlittr lllio MHrla!lze In rtwlty slang.

You give Buch i good advice, I thought maybe you i could belD inc. I am 24 yearn old, and have been married 13 mouths. i Jlv nusbund is a It. It. ! is home very little, and what time j he is he spends up town. Soon afier J breakfast h dressws for town, and i don't come home till 5 or 6 p. m., and then ho goes at 7 or S, and slays I till 0 or 19. Now I get awful lone fceme for him when he la away, and feel neglected when he spends so ! much time up town. I hardly ever I ask him where he has been, and if I do" he ulwaya swears nt me, so I try i to have a nice dinner of Ihe food I ; know he likes, and have the house clean and am neat myself. I never nag or scold, but It seems like he goes just the same. He often apolo 1 gizes if I have to wait dinner too long. Ho never asks me, or looks lo see If I have wood in, and when I ask him he never gets it. I like to go. and he so seldom takes me. i uxed to dance, but I gave it up after a few times, he got so angry. So I stay at home now a great part of the time, but I am unhappy. I can't go on much longer this way. I didn't feel I could tell anyone, so am ask ing you, for I deeply love my hus band and want, if I can, to make i success of our marriage. TROUBLED WIFE. I I Ans. You have pamix-red yoiiri I husband to such mi extent that he ht:s ceaaed to think of you as A liti-1 man being, anil thinks entirely of j himself. In other words, you havei ! trained him wrong from the start. ! Y'otir husband Is one of those out of date men that have the idea their wives should be seen and not heard, i and have no other mission on earth ! than just to cook and keep house for them. Yhat he needs Is to be awak ened to tho fact that you too require diversions and interests, anil a little attention from him. As it is ninny wives nre glorified housekeepers in stead of pals, and nine cases out of ten It la their own fault. They mny not tliiuk they nre to blame, but they are. 'Iliey allow their husbands to think th?y will tsand for Hint kind of treatment. You have done right in not nagging him; that will never do any good, but you ran carry the other kind of treatment too far. It Is certainly time for a climax now, I should any. If possible, have a heart to heart talk with him, mill le prepared to stand by what you say. Tell him Hint you do not Intend to go on this way any longer.

The new vehicle law pro vides that where trailers or semi, trailers being used for haullnr freight, that the trailers must lie H censed according to the tire width it a rate of 50 cents per Inch. Thi means that It a truck Is purchased nnd a trailer is operated In conjunc tion that a license must be obtained on both. The section of the vehicla law covering this matter reads ai follows: "Motor trucks, trailers and j semi-trailers used In the business ot transporting freight or any article of commerce for hire and not operat ing exclusively within the limits ot an Incorporated city or town, shall ray for each inch or fraction there of to total tire width at the rate of 50 cents per inch in addition to the other fees prescribed by law for mot or trucks, trailers and genii trailers; provided, that on application the sec retary of state may In his discretion grant a permit to use oversize tirei on motor trucks not exceeding two tons capacity, for Ihe purpose of se curing traction and not for the pur pose of Increasing the combined weight and load capacity, and charse In excess of the regular license and tire width fees provided for regular equipment shall be made." It may also be seen from the fore going that In operating trucks, haul. Ing freight outside of municipal llm- Its, that there Ir a fee to he paid on tire width ill addition to the regular license fee. DAILY WRTTr-nt RF.pnnT.
