CAUGHT
SHEEPS AND GOATS IN POLITICS.
NO one today is at the same time so close an observer
of political tendencies and so brilliant a writer about
them as William Allen White. In a remarkable article in
ihe April American magazine Mr. White appears in both
apaeities at his best. lie writes: '
"But the line of division between the sheep and the
;'oa(s of politics is not between the Socialists and the rest
of the world. The line is between the obstructive and the
onstructive forces of politics. Their differences arc not
jf party, nor of section, nor of professed, creed; between
hose who look forward and those who look back there
ire fundamental differences of temperament. These tem
peramental differences make the lines of cleavage, separa
bly members of the same party into progressives and con
servatives, reactionaries and insurgents. Now look around
'n the world, all over civilization, and you will find no
jreat reactionary leader.
"(Jo through history with the same quest, and you
vvill find none. Conservatism does not lead it follows,
Iragged by the scruff of its neck! Today in our own poli
rics the men whom the people follow are jiot the conserya
ives. Our leaders are progressive most of them mili
tant and insurgent. And all this is because the conserva
tives have nothing to offer. AVhat program, for instance,
is Mr. Cannon offering the American people? He will an
swer probably that he is standing upon the Republican
olatform of .1908. But if you ask him what certain of its
blanks mean, being translated, he will interpret them into
i declaration in favor of letting well enough alone. Mr.
ldrich has a similar attitude. They have the political
deals of the campaign of 189b"; they have learned noth
ing and forgot nothing since the days when it was suppos-
Jd that it we kept the nation prosperous we would be keep
ing it righteous.
"Mr. Jlarmon, in the Deinoeratic party, is of the same
tvpe of mind. Mr, Murphy and Mr. ' Fingy' Connors stand
with Mr. .Harmon for what
gland group of senators represent in the Republican party.
They are all busily engaged in stamping out the blaze in
the powder-mill. That is their program in politics; it is
hardly necessary to add that it may be regarded politi
cally as 'extra-hazardous,' for the fire has gained a good
headway, and soon tho places that knew these gentlemen
will know them no more, and the historian will be dry
loaning the landscape to identify them."
PEOPLES' PROPERTY NEGLECTED.
N1CED for a eh;uij;e in the nmnagemont of comity affairs
is proven hy the condition of the road building ma
hinery owned hy the county. A Vat or was left in the hoilers
uid pipes of the throe steam rollers, which were wintered
ut the poor farm, with tho result that the tubes broke when
cold weather arrived and repairs costing $500 have boon
thereby necessitated. In one of tho rollers, fourteen flues
were cracked as well as steam pipes, and two weeks steady
work by machinists has not finished the needed repairs.
The public's business is very apt to bo no ones business.
Cosily equipment is left to deteriorate and depreciate, if
owned by the people. Nonce the employment of a road
engineer whoso business it will be to safeguard those in
terests, is universally approved as sound business policy.
In tho purchasing of supplies, in the distribution of
road funds, in Inany ways, there has been a looseness of
methods which has proven expensive to the taxpayer. In
many instances the policy has boon penny wise and pound
foolish. The change inaugurated by the county court is
'hailed with satisfaction as the promise of a wiser admin
istration of count v affairs.
