the wind is blowing in the political
world, two of the recent newspaper
changes are suggestive. The New
York Graphic, heretofore an able Re
publican champion, with occasional in
dependent leanings, is now Democrat
ic. The Chicago Herald, which well
posted people believe has the bright
est future before it of any paper in
the great western metropolis, has
changed hands and aspires to become
the leading exponent of Democratic
principles in the Northwest, a position
which it will likely attain, as it is
backed by a notable combination of
brains and business energy. For
some years past the Herald has been
aslashing Republican paper. Similar
changes of lesser Importance are re-
ported from other parts of the coun-
try, and in numerous localities new
Democratic weeklies are springing in
to existence. These are good signs
and make it clearer than ever that
the people are in dead earnest when
they declare that the Republican party
must CO."

total of $4,000 square miles, or an
extent Of country equal to France,
the German empire and Italy cembin-
ed. The attention which the adroit
manager of the Northern Pacific has
directed to this region by bringing
over representative men from England
and Germany, the great centers from
which the emigration to this country
flows, cannot fail to result in securing
large influx of foreign settlers. The
new region will make heavy calls for
some time upon the lumber trade at
both ends of the line, for it is not
known that any available bodies of
pine exist in the middle Territories.
The opening of this line is indeed
great event, for it opens an empire to
the restless energies of the race

and not for personal luxury. 1t is
the open door to great abuses, and it
is the duty of every official to keep it
shut.
The scrupulousness of officials in
the earlier days of the republic, when
one of the Adams family refused
even to use the public writing paper
for his private correspondence, may
excite a smile of contempt from the
loosc-living, lax-notioned gentry of
the present day. But it was a very
fine and wholesome conscience, nice
sense of honor, which drew the line
so strictly between "mine and thine"
President Buchanan shared this
feeling, and was much disturbed that
his niece, Miss Harriet Lane, had
used the revenue cutter which was
named after her for a short excursion
down the Potomac, insisting, subse-
quently, upon reimbursing the addi-
tional expense out of his own pocket.
The next year he had occasion to
write her upon the subject again,
which he did as follows: 81 am sorry
to find that your excursion to West
Point on the Harriet Lane has been
made the subject of newspaper critic
ism on yourself. The practice, how
ever, of employing national vessels
on pleasure excursions to crafty any
class of people is fair subject of
public criticism. You know how
much | condemned your former trip
on the same vessel, and / did not ex-
pect you would fall into second err
ror. The thing, however, has passed
and gone, and let it pass. After
fair time shall have elasped, it is my
purpose to cause general orders to be
issued by the Treasury and Naval De-
partments to stop the practice"
This is good common sense, and it
appeals to the popular judgment, not
because it saves a few dollars to the
treasury, but because it is business
like. 1t is just such rules as strict
business men establish and both live
up to themselves and compel others to
do so; not because of the few dollars
and cents involved, but because it
saves all misunderstanding, prevents
abuses and shuts off unknown leaks
and drafts upon profits. The success
full and honorable business man is the
man who insist upon and practices
these scrupulous principles.

The Morals of "Junketing.o

From the Detroit Free Press.
In estimating the expenses of Sec
rotary Chambers "junketing" ON the
Tallapoosa and of President Arthur's
daughter on the Dispatch, the New
York Sun says that the total daily
expense of Secretary Chandeliers sea
voyage is s311; of giving the Presi-
dents daughter the benefit of the sea
air 1926. But in this calculation are
included the pay of the officers and
men, and the interest on the invest
ment. As the pay of the officers and
men, and the interest on the invest
ment are the same whether these YES
sells are moving or lying still, Mr..
Chandler and the Presidents daugh-
ter ought not to be charged with these
items. 1t is the additional expense
OF running the vessels that can be
entered up against them. 1t is not
the amount nor the cost which the
people of the United States object to
in such private use of the public pro-
perty. 1t is the principal and proprie-
ty of it. If one official has a right to
make a personal use of the public
property so has another. Every one
of the 100000 office-holders has the
same right as any one of them to
those conveniences and accommoda-
tons provided for the public service

The Weekly Long Islander pretends
to chronicle an incident that happen
ed when Mr.. Dana, of the New York
Sun, was at church the other Sunday
morning. 1t says: "The morning
being somewhat sultry Mr.. Dana had
closed his eyes and committed himself
TO profound meditation. The clergy
man, the Rev. Elias Pinwickle, ID. D..
was reading the first lesson, the fifth
chapter of Daniel, and had just given
the Hebrew prophets Interpretation
of the handwriting on the wall at
Belshazzar's feast, "Mene, meme, tekel
upharsin," when the congregation was
surprised to hear Mr.. Dana exclaim /:
mo, no; no such thing! What was
written was The republicans must
goP He was adding; Turn the
rascals outW when Deacons Clamp
and McFeathers elected him."

the poor pasture for COW that runs

say she is a good one.

The State Fair.

September 1921, inclusive. The first
thing to attract the visitors attention
will, no doubt, be the large amount of
new buildings. Up to August l, So
900, had been expended for this, and
in the end the sum spent for improve
ments will amount to fully $4,000.
Over 400 new cattle stalls and 1856
new horse stalls have been built, ex-
tending from the main entrance on
the right three-quarters around the
grounds. The new buildings are rs
follows: Speakers stand, with small
building attached in the rear Presi-
dents and Secretary's Office, 40x16 |;
police and express Office, 24x32 hand
some implement shed, open, 40x200 I;
poultry house, closed, 24x96, and bee
house in the rear, 24x50; art depart
ment wing to main building; wagon
shed, open, 24x100; carriage house,
24x140; rear addition to octagonal
vegetable house, 24x96; horticultural
hall, 36x112, and six covered sheep
and swine pens, containing 81 pens
each. Besides the erecting of these
buildings, thousands of feet of water
pipe have been laid, and a space in
side the race track, and directly in
front of the grand stand, has been
leveled and fixed for the prize military
drill, in which five companies are al
ready entered. Four hundred feet of
shafting is on hand for the use of i'm
plements.
There are now $50 cattle entries in,
and applications for $50 more stalls.
More cattle stalls will be built. In the
horse department there are already
about 60 entries from Canada alone
among them, Hiram Walker q Sons
have 81 imported Percherons. Senator
Palmer's agent has applied for stalls
for n number of the same breed, but
they are not yet counted in the en-
tries. The number of entries of sheep
is greater than that Of last year at
the same date and the swine entries
promise to number more than last
year, though not many have been en-
tered as yet. All entries in the live
stock department must be in before
Tuesday, the 18th. The exhibit in
farm implements will be unusually
large, as the entries already received
outnumber the total of entries in any
previous year. This is also true of
the exhibit of carriages. The time
for entries of poultry, machinery and
farm implements closes the 18th, and
in all other departments, except as al
ready noted, at noon Of the 18th.
The departments of manufactured
articles, art, music and needle-work |
promise to be well filled. The special
attractions of the fair, aside from the
regular programme and horse races,
will be grand cavalcade of all stock
at 2 p. NJ. of Tuesday, the 18th, BIZ
cycle races under the auspices of the
Detroit Bicycle Club on Wednesday
or Thursday at 1 p. NJ. and the mill
tary prize drill at 2 p. NJ, Friday.
Gov. Begole is expected to be present
at the fair on Wednesday. In regard
to the horticultural display, a letter
from Secretary G. w. Garfield says
