TIE Territorial campaign gives
promise Of being removed above the
abusive and scurrilous personalities

so, and, 50 far as the influence of The

Democratic party cannot win on the
eminent fitness and superior qualities

paign conducted on high plain Of

tempts to ride into Office on his pro-
fame abuse, slsnderous charges and
nnEarranted attacks on the character

with ignominious defeat A candidate

FAULr finding is dominant ehzrac-
feristic Of the human family. 1t Is
easier to see foothills of faults than
towering mountains Of good traits
Il Is easier to condemn than 70 praise,
to speak evil of an individual than 70
speak in bis favor and it is more
pleasant with many to look at the
dark cloud than at one with a golden
lining. More than half the pleasures
of life are lost to Us because we look
At individuals and things through the
stained glass rather than through the
clear pebble glass OF our spectacles.
