It Is well for men to think often of their mothers and to Jo as they know their mothers would like to have them do. Every mother wants her son to be honest, true and brave. Every rational boy starts out to be that way and the truly suc cessful man Is the one who is guid ed throuRh life by the stars of his yi.uth. The men who fall and the wo men who fail are those who forget their mothers and the lessons learn ed at their mothers' knees.

I've been through the mill my bojr, I have bumped the bumps of fa' , I've seen gold turn out alloy, I've seen friendship turn to hate. I've seen plans go far astray When It seemed they must succeed. Take it from me today, Never go above your speed. Never spend a cent unearned. Never gamble on the morrow. Here's a lesson man has learned very often to his sorrow; Let an- old man tell you now Save a little you may need, Guard yourself, and, anyhow, - Never go above your speed. I've been through the mill, I know Just how easy life appears " To the eyes of youth; but, oh, Far down the lane of years Disappointments wait for you. Vain will be regrets, Indeed, Keep your heart and purpose true, Never go above your speed. Edgar A. Guest In Detroit Free Press. A SPLENDID TYPE. Ex-Governor Folk is a clean-cult, able, well balanced public man. He draws the line sharp and clear be tween what Is right and what is wrong In governmental affairs. Yet he is not bitter or onesided about It He calmly points out the course that should oe followed and Insists the path be taken. His record shows that he has the couragf of his con victions and that he is a doer of the right as well as a believer In the right. Governor Folk is of the type of men America needs at this time. Theodore Roosevelt Is another. They are exponents of the simple virtues. They call for the exercise of com mon honesty and the application of the square deal. Both men look up on the overrlch and the wretchedly poor Is equally undesirable. Over- wealth and squalor are both products Oi" an abnormal state of affairs. In the misery of the multimillionaire and of the pauper fhtre is an element ot 'similarity. One is overfed, the other staYved. Both classes const! tute a menace to the republic. Governor Folk takes the view that the colossal fortuni.-s which now threaten this country are not due to indj-try and ability so much as to the enjoyment of unjust . privileges. These privileges must be cut away ai: i thry will be as time goes on. The regulation of corporations by the gov ernment looks to this end. The ad oj ti --..n of the Initiative and the ref erendum, the direct primary and the rt'all are st'-pj, in the same direction. These tilings are desired because they tend to i.e p the government In the hands of the people an 1 do away with legislation for special interests and of the administration of the govern ment in behalf of those Interests. Liki! other wise men Governor Folk is ar. optomist. While there are many things that may be criticised rie sees hope in the fact that the criticism Is forthcoming. He knowe that the world goes forward, not backward and that man is a rising animal, not a fallen angel. The golden age is before us, not behind us. It is only necessary that our democracy be ma'ntalned in truth as well as in name and that the forces of privilege be not allowed to gain the mastery. SOME POLITICAL HISTORY Some interest In Oregon history Is revived by the death of LaFayette virover, former governor of Oregon and United s-'tates senator. He passed away in Portland Wednesday fore noon and his biography reveals the fact that he played a conspicuous part in the early day affairs of the state, the early day affairs of this state. Governor Grover was a native of Maine and came to Oregon 60 years ago. He first resided at Salem from which place he moved to Portland where he practiced law. In 1857 he was one of the delegates to the Ore gon constitutional convention and when the state was admitted to the union In 1S39 he was chosen as the first cngiessman. He was governor from 1S70 until 1377 and retired i from the governorship to become United States senator. He retired from active life in 1SS3 and hence he has been little known to the present generation of Oregon c'lizens. Prior to lis occupancy by Mr. Gro ver the governorship of Oregon was held by three different men. John Whiteaker, democrat, was first gov ernor and he served from 1S59 until 1862. He was followed bv A. C Gibbs. republican, who held the chair from 1S62 to 1S66 George L Woods, republican, served from 1866 to 1870 when the people again elect d a democrat in the person of Gov ernor Grover. Since 1877 Oregon has had nine governors as follows: S. F. Chadwlck democrat, from 1S77 to 1878: W. W Thayer, democrat, from 1878 to 1882 Z. F. Moody, republican, 18S2 to 1887 Sjylvester Pennoyer, democrat, 188' to 1895 W. P. Lord, republican, 1895 to 1899: T. T. Geer, republican, 1899 to 1903; George E. Chamberlain democrat 1903 to 1&09; F. W. Ben sm. republican, 1909 to 1911, and Oswald West, democrat, present In cumbent. It Is noticable that despite the fac that Qregon Is a republican state af?J has long been one, seven out of the 13 men who have held the gover sllp have been democrats.

There is no real substitute for Hood's Sarsaparilla.

During the past 23 years no republican has ever been re-lected as governor wTiile thus far no democratic Incum-br-nt has fa'led of re-election. Unquestionably this has been due l.-.rgely to the fact that the democrat ic governors, being of the minority party and not being hampered with party machinery and machine lead ers, have been free to administer ar- I fairs for the benefit of the public, and the public only while the republican executives have not been so untram melled. Factional deferences have also usually worked to prevent the renomlnatlon of a republican gover nor and at times those differences have done much to bring about dem ocratic success. LilxTal Transit.
