Ups and Downs of Politics,

What funny thing popular govern
ment'' is anyway. Here is man who last
week or last year was simple lawyer, no
better nor worse than thousands of other
lawyers. Perhaps he was Mayor or a
Sheriff, or something of that kind. This
week he is President and his whole person.
ality is changed in the eyes of the people,
He is elected simply to serve, to look after
our little affairs for short time, to exercise a
Judgment which is just as crude as it has teen
in all the long years when he went unrecog-
nized, and yet he is a god, or q king, or some-
thing more than man, and the people are
crazed to see him, and trample upon one an
other and pay enormous prices to get near to
him as he passes in the street.
OF course great deal of this is due to the
whoopla character of party politics. 1t is q
good thing for the party to make noise 1t
impresses the mob" There is nothing like
cannon and "soger boys" and drums and horns
and fireworks to arouse enthusiasm. They are
SO much simpler than reason and common
sense, SO much more easily understood. All,
what great, serious lucid, reasoning, intel
lectual people we are, to be sure.

tographs of properties for sale are kept on

of customers. Two or three carloads of lum-

Pittsburg,. half century ago, did not buy,
sell and rent houses and other property as
they do to-daY-for they did, though on
limited scale-but such an occupation as
that of the modern real estate agent was un-
known. 1t did not exist, because it was un-
necessary. Old-time Pittsburgers doubt
less had less business to attend
to than the citizens of to-day. Most them
had less property, too; and land owners gen.
orally had time to attend personally to such
business as the selling of lots, the renting of
tenements and such other duties as are now
placed in the hands of agents. Those who
could not do this employed lawyers or JUS
tices of the peace to manage such negotia-
tions for them. Whatever real estate trans
