THE FAVORITE SON MANIA.
THERE should be a law against favorite sons. Voting
for a man for any public office because of his resi
dence is utter nonsense. There should be only one con
sideration and that is the candidate's qualifications for the
particular job. If he has the necessary qualifications, the
favorite son business is not needed, if he hasn't the neces
sary qualifications, then the favorite son business should
be abandoned. Hut the iarce will be continued just as
long as the people submit to it. It is only another manifes
tation of the need of a political awakening, among the rank
and file, and the readjustment of political affairs upon a
rational and common sense basis.

FREE AIR
THE AIR we breathe is cheaper than anything; there
. is; custodian or keeper, can't say, "The price has
riz!" We hear no far-fetched wheezes from profiteer
ing gents, explaining that the breezes have gone up
fifty cents. "The stock of wind's exhausted," no doubt
they'd promptly say, it' they should be accosted, to fix
the price today. Grown tired of endless failing at
things that cost inc dear, I stand outdoors inhaling a lot
of atmosphere. I work my ancient bellows in ecstacy
and glee; no greedy, swinish fellows can charge it up to
me. Oh, for the love of Peter, let's breathe it and en
thuse! No corporation's meter will measure what we
use. Some day they'll learn to cinch us, and tax us for
the air, and cops will come and pinch us if we exceed
our share; but in tho balmy present they hardly dare to
try; the breezes, sweet and pleasant, are free to every
guy. Some day you'll get your zephyr through rusty
pipes, like gas, not as the care-free heifer that gambols
in the grass. Some day a grim collector will climb your
creaking stair, will come, a grisly spectre, to tax you for
the air.-
