For Whitelaw Reid we have thorough
respect and liking. He is an excellent
writer, a careful student. judicious
editor, a courteous controversialist and
an all around newspaper man in the
best sense of the word. He is also a
pleasing and instructive speaker, citi-
zen who is possessed of decided execu-
tive skill, a politician who has not in
creased the asperities nor figured in the
scandals of partisanship and an Ameri-
can Republican whom opponents can
hold in esteem as readily as friends in
regard. If he should be elected he
would well discharge the parliamentary
and political duties of the second Office
OF the government. and he has the firm
ness, culture, discretion and self poise
which would strengthen and adorn the
first office in the gift of the people
should the operation of the constitution
deyolve it upon him. Brooklyn Eagle

Concerning Harrison's Second Term.

President Harrison needs no intro
duction to the American people; he
needs no strained and fulsome eulogy to
commend him TO the support of the Re
publican party. Not once since he was
elected president in 1888 have the citi-
zens whose votes raised him to that high
office had occasion to regret their choice.
His administration during his first term
has been clean, patriotic and distinguish
ed by great achievements. and the sec
ond term will, we doubt not, be equally
advantageous to the country and credit
able to the president - Brooklyn Times.

FOR MEMBER OF CONGRESS-,
Second District.
WILLIAM w. CIRCUIT, of Kirby.

The State Convention has set forth once
again the principles of the Republican
party and named its standard bearers.
That there were differences of opinion as
to who should head the ticket, and that
the man we preferred was not nominated
are matters OF ancient history. To-day
we are all Republicans who propose to
give our old enemy an oldfashioned lick
ing next September. There is no bitter
ness among the friends of Hon. Victor |.
Spear towards the successful candidate.
From now on it is the duty of every loyal
Republican to give the ticket at the head
of this column his earnest and cordial
support.

While it would be idle to deny that
the sentiment of a large majority of
the Republican party of California IA
vored Blaine, it is equally true that
no Republican who has the interests Of
his party at stake has any right to feel
dissatisfied with the action of the Re-
publican convention in renominating
President Harrison. The president will
display during his second term the same
qualities which have marked his first
sound Judgment, cool deliberation and
sterling and unapproachable integrity.
His election will follow his nomination
with as much certainty as one season
follows another.-San Francisco Chroni-

President Harrison's nomination
means another great victory for the Re
publican party in November. That his
candidacy will call out the full strength
of the party at the polls is proven by the
fact that it did SO in 1888. when he was
little known. Since then he has grown
immeasurably in the estimation of his
fellow citizens, regardless of partisan
bias, and especially in the confidence of
his own party.-Denver Republican.

MEXICAN TENANT. FARMING.

AMosG the many interesting fea.
lures OF the last census, perhaps none Ia
more 20 than the inquiry Into the
tenant farmer system In the United
States. The bulletin already published
on this subject Is devoted to 10 counties
In the central part OF Kansas.
and 10 counties Ia Southern Ohio. In
the Kansas counties Gd.7b per cent. Of
the farmers own the land, and s3.g5
arc renters or tenants. In the Ohio
counties only 90 per cent. Of the tillers
own their farms, while 81 per cent. hire
or rent the farms they cultivate.
But what Is worse still Is the fact that
two.thirds Of the Kansas owners OF
farms have membranes on them
equal TO 81 per cent. Of their full value,
and bearing per cent. interest. In
the Ohio counties about one-ilfth OF the
owners OF farms have incumbrauces.
nlss0 no investigation was made as
torenters, but estimates have been made
from other data which show that the
ten Kansas counties which have now
1925 per cent. Of their farms under
rent had then but 1918. In the Ohio
counties which show a percentage OF
81 renters, there was in 1880 but % per
cent.
These figures mean great deal for
the future Of the United States. II
they are correct, and there Is no
reason to doubt that they are,
at least approximately 80, the question
