WE MUST LEARN TO SUPPRESS RATHER THAN TO EXALT
THOSE WHO ENDEAVOR, WHETHER THROUGH IGNORANCE, SEL
FISHNESS OR MALICE, TO STIR UP AMONG US ANTAGONISM TO
OTHER NATIONS AND TO OTHER PEOPLES.
If we are to take the place which many of us have fondly hoped
America would take, at the very forefront of the movement for the
establishment of a world peace based upon even handed justice, we
must FIRST LEARN TO RULE OUR TONGUES AND TO
TURN DEAF EARS to those who from time to time endeavor to
lead us away from the path of international rectitude and interna
tional honor with FALSE CRIES of a pseudo-patriotism.
We must do our best to lift political discussion, both national and
international, up out of the mire of personality and unseemly contro
versies between individuals and private interests on to the high ground
of PRINCIPLE.
Political progress must depend upon trust in the BETTER IN
STINCTS OF THE PEOPLE and cannot rest upon their appetites
and their passions, their envies and their animosities. A vast ma
jority of the people of the United States are Ood fearing, law abid
ing, devoted to liberty and order and sincerely desirous of promoting
the common welfare. - , ' . .

HARD PAVEMENT
Why not put hard pavement on Main
street; that is, up to date pavement,
Bithulithic Bitumen, Hassam, of the
like. With the good base to work on,
it would seem that Main street from
Fourth to Eleventh could be coated at
little cost to the ultimate gain not on
ly of the City but of property owners
and business men alike.
- There was some talk of like work
on Seventh street in the hill district
also of paving Main from Eleventh to
Eigteenth street. Why not?
INSANITY DEFENSE
The insanity dodge has been used
so many times byv criminals to save
their necks, and then after a short
time be declared sane and released
from the insane asylum, that some
three or four years ago Thaw chose
that route to crawl out of his error of
judgment. He succeeded in having
himself declared insane so far, so
good, but when trying to complete his
plans, he was still crazy, in the opin
ion of the court.
It is to be hoped that his present at
tempt will prove futile. If he is sane
now, if he ever was insane and, re
turns to the old haunts will put him
back into the old rut and some one
will suffer for it. It was his money
that succeeded in having him declar
ed insane, but the same money should
not now be able to bring about the
opposite decision. Had Thaw been a
poor man he would have been in a
murderer's grave long ago.
We have some of these so-called
Republicans working in our ring, mak
ing trouble not alone for the average
man but also for the employer who
has practically built the state to its
present proportions.
Progressive sounds good, but if the
whole bunch follows in the footsteps
of the dear delighted Colonel, we fear
for the worst.
A small classified ad will rent that
vacant room.
