A young man who signs himself
"Adolphus," writes US to know if
it would not be good thing for a
bright young man with fin de
steele ideas to join some new party
and be equipped for the
downfall of the old party
which he thinks will occur at the
next presidential election. Now,
Adolphus, don't lose any sleep
watching for the downfall of the
old party. True, it may seem a
little slow to progressive young
men like yourself, and perhaps
you think it is jogging along in an
old rut, but then the whole human
family is pretty much given to the
rut business. Gaudy tailed COM
cts sometimes shoot about the
firmanent in manner more fin de
steele than old Sol, but the old
fellow just jogs along, and the
chances are he will be rutting it
after the comet has been forgot
ten. Don't get it into your pre-
cious head that a few disappointed
politicians who failed to get a job
in the old parties are going to turn
the country upside down so sud
denly that you will slip off. When
political quack comes around,
Adolph, and tells you he has a
panacea that will cure all the ills
of government, abolish selfshness,
legislate us all out of debt and
make everybody rich, Just remem-
Der that political quack is no
better than any other kind of a
quack; and that if he could make
living honestly he wouldn't be in
the quack business. At this writ
ing there has been no material dis
covered out of which new parties
can be manufactured except male
citizens over the age of 21. TAX
ing them out of one organization
and putting them in another don't
improve them bit. Stick to tn e
old party until you are sure you
have something better. 1t settled
some big fuses before you came
and in all probability viii be kick
ing pretty lively after you have
passed on.

A man who will make no sacri-
fees for the good of the town or
community in which he resides, is
not deserving of the patronage of
the community. Every honest
man should learn the all-important
lesson that he is to live for others
as well as himself. The man who
closes his heart and pocket book
to the honest appeals of worthy
men and institutions, gets but very
little enjoyment out of life. 1t is
as great a pleasure to give as to
receive, when the object of our
charity is worthy.-Ex.

WIPE OUT THE JOINTS,

uc CiuSdue btSuu thic WYNN
against the Joints in Kirksville is
heartily endorsed by all good citi-
zens. Only few months ago the
people of Kirksville with their
eyes wide open, voted that the
liquor traffic should be abolished,
and to their decision the prcsump-
tion of sincerity certainly attaches.
Had they meant that anybody who
chanced to come into possession OF
a case of beer and a corkscrew
might open up dive, they would
doubtless have so expressed them
selves. The state law against the
sale of intoxicants is supposed to
be in force in Kirksvi lie, yet for
several months joints have been
running in full blast, in open de :
tiance of law.
The prosecuting attorney is af-
ter them this week, and it is
hoped that he will push the mat
ter to its fullest extent. If the
law is worthless and cannot be
enforced, the sooner the people are
made acquainted with its made
quacieS and the farce rung off, the
better. If it can be enforced, it
is certainly nothing more than the
plain, sworn duty of officials to
close up every dive in Kirksville.
The question of whether or not
the law is a good thing for Kinks
vile does not concern the matter
in the least. A majority of the
people have rendered their decision
upon this point, and are entitled
to have their edicts respected.
Kirksville cannot afford to per,
nit the running of such places.
Her reputation as a law abiding
city and an educational centre is
entirely too valuable to be bartered
away for the price of few cheaI
side walks. Even those who woulC
like to see a well regulated higl
license saloon have no defense tt
offer for the dives that are nov
running. There is no way to regu
late such places, and they ar
governed solely by the avarice o
their proprietors. The class o
would-be sports and gamblers VIII,
hang around the disreputabl
, holes are not indispensable to tn
welfare of the city, and their speed,
emigration would be hailed wit
delight. Let the law be thorough
ly tested and the question of wheth
; er or not a handful of jointists ca
run the town be settled in a mar
ner not easily misunderstood.

gether for mutual benefit, wake
