Give the Flowers Now.
Flowers make beautiful the cas
ket that holds the remains of the
dead, but while it is rifjht and
proper to place them there, they
do no good for the dead. Their
incense and their beauty is for the
living alone. It is only as h trib
ute to the memory of the one
that is gone that they are laid
there, because "for the 'lead wo
can do no offices." The words of
praise spoken in tender tones in
memory of the departed fa" upon
deaf and heedless ears. Knowing
this, we wait until the brother has
passed on before we bring him
sweet flowers and appreciative
words. It is after he can no long
er enjoy the one or be pleased
with the other that we bring our
gifts. How much better wo'tld it
be if we should present the flow
ers and speak the words of praise
and appreciation while yet. he is
living among us. How unci)
better that we appreciate his
deeds and his words than to show
that appreciation to otlie.'S alter
he is gone. Let us siatter '.he
flowers and speak the words
while yet the brother or the sis
ter is with us, and not lew; '.he
task of love to be performed vi.eti
the eyes and cars are closed to
things of earth. Dallas Itemizer.
Insanity and the Blues.
It is announced that among the
minor forms of mental disorder
that are to be studied at Johns
Hopkins University is that famil
iarly known as "the blues." It is
argued that the dejection is due
to a species of insanity, mild in
deed at the beginning but liable
to become dangerous. As one
authority puts it, the disease is so
sliirht as not to be noticed ex
cept by those very close to the
siiMcrcrs. It is the purpose ol the
experimenters to make it the sub
ject of "suggestive treatment "
We have here what has ev. -reappearance
of being another at
tempt to account learnedly fur
something that isn't so. The de
jeclioji known as "the blues" has
its seal generally in the stomach
or in the liver rather than in the
brain. Suggestive treatment by
the ablest of alienists or hypno
tists or even Christian Scientists
would tint do the patient hall so i
much good as a dose ot calomel
followed by a sane system ot eat
ing and living.
Furthermore, the man to whom
everything looks blue is not more
cr.iy than the man to whom
everything looks rosy. The vic
tim of blues doesn't buy gold
bricks or speculate with trust
funds or organize third parties.
Why, then, accuse him of insan
ity?' New- York Wotlil.
When a man has purged him
self ot every virtue and acipiired
every vice known to mankind, he
writes an anonymous letter.
There is no tax on words of
meritorious pr.ii-e and no duty on
a smite, but some men are too
stingy to indulge in either.
Did you ever know a really
great man who entertained an ex
alted opinion of his own ability?
A fellow stopped his subscrip
tion to the Democrat the other
day because this publication had
published a legitimate item of
news from the court records.
Imagine his surprise when the pa
per appeared on the streets at the
usual time the day following the
withdrawal of his patronage.
If some one could figure out a
plan which would enable us to
draw interest on our life's earn
ings in the hereafter there might
be some excuse for a stingy man.
o
Taft is by no means eliminated.
He has made such a terrible fail
ure of his administration that the
sympathy of the American voters
may yet be the means of giving
him another four years' lease on
the V'hite"House.
o
"More paint and better furnish
ings for the Linn County Court
House," would prove a popular
slogan for ?ome candidate who
desires a place on the County
Board.
o
lieware of the man who talks
too- much about his honesty or the
woman who boasts of her virtue.
Honesty and virtue seldom travel
around the country with a brass
band.
The Ohio State' Journal sug
gests that Teddy's new political
organization be called the "Ten
nessee Coal and Iron Party."
o
The railroad development in
western Oregon has just com
menced. In five years Linn coun
ty will be a net-work of railroads.
William R. Hearst's attempt to
read Bryan out of the Democratic
party reminds us of a child at
tempting to instruct his teacher.
The organization of a Wood
row Wilson Club in Linn county
would be a big step in the right
direction.
The King's Command.
Leaving behind them the party
traditions of nearly half a century,
twelve hundred former republi
cans have assembled in Chicago
for the purpose of paying homage
to the God of Individualism.
To think of the Bull Moose
convention without Roosevelt
would be like a sea without water.
Principles are entirely absorbed
in the man and the man is the
absolute dictator of the situation
at Chicago.
.Perkins and "Boss" Flynn are
there. Yet these two amiable
gentlemen agree with President
Taft on every vital public ques
tion. They are reactionaries by
training and by temperament but
have been taken into the very bos
om of the Roosevelt family.
Johnson and Beveridgc are
there. Yet these two progres
sives agree with Governor Wil
son on every question of public
importance before the American
people, and if the truth were
known, are in accord with every
plank in the Democratic National
platform.
President Taft has allied him
self with tlie reactionaries, lie
has burned the bridge of progress
behind him and repudiated 'nearly
every progressive measure which
has been presented to him for his
signature. His administration
has been a failure.
Governor Wilson on the other
hand, has allied himself with the
progressive wing of his party. I le
has been responsible for more
genuine reform during bis two
years incumbency as governor of
New Jersey than any of his pre
decessors. His administration
has been a success and he has
proved the falacy of the claim
that the schoolmaster is unfitted
lor the important duties of a great
administrative ollice.
The issue between Taft and
Wilson is clearly drawn. Taft
stands for political stag-nation
Wilson for political progress.
Under these conditions wherein
does the Colonel see the dire need
lor a third party ? The progres
sives like Beveridgc and Johnson
can support Wilson with good
grace and a clear conscience. The
reactionaries like Flytrn and Perk
ins can support Taft without
making any mental apologies for
such an alliance.
But why argue the question.
The King has spoken, and the
King can do no wrong.
EPISTLE ARRIVES
Evidently the Work of Persons
Bent on Stopping Illicit Sale
of Liquors.
POLICE HEAD NOT UNEASY
AND WILL PURSUE DUTIES
Writer of Anonymous Letter
Effectively Disguises His
Handwriting.
SATURDAY
Chief of Police Daughtry:
Your duty is day chief. Stay home
after dark or we will fill you full of
lead. If you care for your nightmen,
tell them to go slow. We will not be
taken but the blindpig business must
stop. U. S.
This is the startling communication
received through the postoffice this
afternoon by Chief of Police Ellis
Daughtry, evidently from someone
who intends to put an end to the
blind-pig business in Albany without
any assistance from the local police
or maybe it was written by one of the
illicit liciuor dealers himself with the
object of intimidating the members of
the local police department.
Nevertheless, the above warning
was received by Chief Daughtry' when
he opened his afternoon's mail today,
but the chief doesn't appear to be
unusually perturbed over the matter
and when interviewed by the Demo
crat reporter said: "I received the
letter tiiis afternoon in my mail and
have showed it to Mayor Gilbert. I
do not know from whom it came but
I would infer from the contents that
someone bent on putting an end to
the illicit sale of intoxicating liquors
in 'Albany has written it and don't
want the police to take any part in
the clean-up."
"I am not, however, going to crawl
into a hole and hide. My duties are
not confined to day work alone and
if I see tit to be on the streets at
night, I will be there. I am going to
enforce the laws to the best of my
ability and will arrest anyone and
everyone whom I find to be violating
them."
The letter received by Chief of
Police Daughtry bore the mark and
date stamp of the Albany postollice,
showing that it had been dropped in
' the box today. The writer took
pains to print every letter in the com
munication, thus disguising his hand
writing effectively and destroying all
clues as to the identity of the writer.
That the writer was unfamiliar with
the spelling of Chief Daughtry's
name was indicated by the fact that
he spelled it Doughtery.
Since the burning of the Franklin
House and the resilience owned by
Dr. Mill on Montgomery street early
this week considerable sentiment has
been stirred up in Albany and it is
believed that the person who sent the
warning to Chief Daughtry is a mem
ber of a crowd who intend to put a
stop to tlie nefarious traffic in this
city and -want to do it without the
assistance or interference of the po
lice. -Many people believe that the two
tires this week were deliberately set
by bliud-piggers themselves to fore
stall any general cleanup on the part
"f local officers or Governor West,
further developments are being
awaited by the police.
