Ht stands today as one of the few sue cessful men who have acquired theti positions by methods that will stanc scrutiny. He has been a producer— not a stock Jobber. He has never an tagonized any class of people. Capita and Labor alike admire him. Without self-advertisement he doet more charity than do most men. He it an ardent advocate of good roads and believes that a really perfect system o f highways will enhance the farmer's income and reduce the cost of living to the cities. He has built roads and given them to his state, always with a sound business scheme to perpetuate them and save them from being a burden to the taxpayers. He comes from a family more Amer lean than mo3t— a family identified with the building o f the nation sfnet the Revolution. His grandfather wai Thomas Jefferson’s most valued per sonal friend and advisor in the time of great need during the dark days o f the Republic. The great Powder Company with which he was formerly identified has supplied our government with all its powder at a price always named by our government officials themselves and never by the company Because of his great executive abil ity and high standing In the business world, some of the shrewdest po litical minds in the country consider him as being one of the most likely “ dark horses" for the Republican nomination. They point to the fact that his success in life would elimin ate any need for a friendly Colonel House, or any other financial Influence standing ever behind the presidential chair. Nor would he be compelled to take orders from any man or group of men. Another factor that the supporters of General du Pont are pointing to is his knowledge of military affairs. For sixteen years he has been Identified r lt h the soldiery of his state and la thoroughly alive to the necessity for preparedness. He has also had practical training in politlca, hav ing been a delegate to a number of State and National conventions, and serving as a member of the Republican National committee for manv years It is the splendid business training o f General du Pont that is pointing the way for him to the nom ination. For it is conceded on all sides that the biggest problems of thla country at the cloae o f the European war will be business problems, and there are few men among those mem tioned. who have had his experience In coping with such huge problems As a manager o f constructive tusl- ness and as a reorganizer, Coleman id Pont stands in s class by hlm selt __ A R R IV E D !

C o l e m a n d u p o n t n a m e d AS L IK E L Y CAN DIDATE W ith the Republican convention on ly a scant twelve weeks away, the most popular topic of conversation In political circles these days concerns the U. O. P.'s choice of a candidate to run against Wilson. The Republicans will probably go back to old principles and look for a candidate who will command the sup port of the same army of voters who elected McKinley, when a wave of patriotic common sense swept the country, and business men by the hundreds of thousands marched the streets demanding A practical govern ment. It Is Interesting to note that the name of General Coleman du Pont, o f Delaware, has been repeatedly men tioned recently as the man eminently qualified for the nomination. To those who look upon the government as a big busineas concern demanding the supervision c f a trained business man. the name o f General du Pont car ries a strong appeal, for there is no man more qualified to handle the big problems of today than this same self made leader in constructive business. Moreover, both the public and private record of General du Pont will stand up well under the searchlight of po litical opposition. Haturday, March *26, lililí THE FALL8 CITY NEWS. *2 N. Sells. C.

The adventures of Satn Clemens and his comrades would fill several books of the size of "Tom Sawyer.” Many of them are, o f course, forgotten now. but those still remembered show that Mark Twain had plenty o f real mate rial. It was not easy to get money In those days, and the boys were often without It. Once Huck Blankenship had the skin o f a coon he bad captured and offered to sell it to raise capital. At Selma' store on Wildcat corner the coonskin would bring 10 cents. But this was not enough. The boys thought of a plan to make it bring more. Seims' back window was open, and tbe place where be kept bis pelts was pretty handy. Huck went around to tbe front door and sold tbe skin for 10 cents to Seims, who tossed it back on tbe pile. Then Huck came back and after waiting a reasonable time crawl ed In the open window, got tbe coon skin and sold It to Seims again. The boys did this several times that after noon, and tbe capital o f tbe band grew. But at last John Fierce, Seims' clerk, said: "Look here, Mr. Seims; there's some thing wrong about this. That boy has been selling us coonsklns all the after noon.” Seims went back to his pile o f pelts. There were several sheepskins, but only one coonskin. the one be bad that moment bought.

Rlr Herbert Tree in a lecture at the Birmingham and Midland Institute said: "Humor may be a help or a clog In life Many great men have been with out It. I think It may be broadly stated that men o f action, tbe great destroyers, tbe men who take, are as a rule devoid o f humor, while men of Imagination and contemplation, those who create, wbo give, have tbe g ift of humor. Among those pre-emlnoitly gifted with humor were Abraham U n - coln, Disraeli, Goethe and Heine, jibe A Queer Diagnosis. A celebrated Dublin physician was Sir Dominic Corrigan, who was as much famed for bis brusquem ss to ward patients as fur his skill In the course of some reminiscences William Charles Scully told a story of the doc tor which Is quite well worth «pioting " I was taken to see him." says the writer, "several times, but lie always treated me with tbe utmost kindness However, a highly respectable maiden aunt of mine had a different experl ence. She went to consult him. After sounding her—none too gently—and asking a few questions he gave a grunt and relapsed Into silence.
