He was cheerful looking citizen

He nodded pleasantly To the conductor.

Hubbell. Il have attended the conven
tons for many years. but always on the
outside. ! was suggested for delegate al
large this year, and was ready To accept
the honor when Il was told me John
Duncan would like to have il. at once
retired; every Lake Superior man would
be glad OF the privilege Of retiring in
favor OF John Duncan. We are for Dun
can all the time. and the whole weight OF
the republican party ought cheerfully to
be cast in the balance for such candi-
date"
Ii is understood that the Portage Lake

bell as delegate at large and no doubt
the friends of John duncan feel deeply
grateful to the learned Judge for his hay

gresham Sam Stephenson in good health

sons old friends in Detroit. Mr.. Fideld
says the congressional campaign il open
ing now in the twelfth district. Mr..
Stephenson has taken no active part in
IL UP to the present time, and in conse-
ouence certain other candidates claim
that they have undermined some OF
Stephenson support and captured in
fiuential friends OF his in one or two OF
the couaties. This remains to be seen as
the canvass from now on will become
more earnest and Stephenson may take
the field himself"

An Ideal Destroyed.

Even IN 1ro disastrous has been the effect
OF the policy which was accepted by the
popular mind concerning Mr. Reed him
SELL y man l. tn the country not what
he may think he j. or what his immediate
friends and adv sers may think. and Dos
Sibly not that which he is at ALL but only
that which tho country has made him in
Its Imagination. Having once attained a
certain ideal in the popular mind, a public
man must live up To 1t, must he measured
by that standard, or he is nothing. Reed
had been idealized as the man Of action
and courage, rs the cavalier Of legislation
riding great charger and armed and
helmoted for the fray But he failed TO
realize this ideal. Ho was unable To per-
ceivo that, so far as the country was con-
cerned, lac was this sort of creature or
he WAS nothing. When he announced his
policy Of practical do nothingism, of pass
ing the appropriation bills and going home,
he destroyed the ideal which the people had
formed of him
In saying this IL does not imply that he
was wrong In his conclusion as to what
was the wisest thing for the house of rep
resentatires 20 do. He did what he thought
was the best for the country. and did il
unseIhshly. But the country never appre-
ciated II. The people wanted action They
felt there was something wrong i'm our
system OF government something wrong
IN legislation, lest we should not have the
hard times, and they wanted an effort
maue 10 afford relief. They have not been
satisfied with explanations. They have
not been enthusiastic about the policy of
economy. They have not thrown their
hats In the air over the prospect of an early
adjournment.

Mistakes In New England.

Other mistakes were made by tho Reed
managers. For instance, they should have
called all the New England conventions
early In the year They were advised 10 do
this by the managers for other presidential
candidates who were making common
cause against Mckinley. But the Reed
people thought there was no doubt what
ever about New England, They had no
Tear OF Mckinley making inroads there
Now they perceive their mistake. The
status of the campaigning might he worry
different from what IL il today If Connect
lieut., New llan,pshire and Vermont Re-
pubhcans had y N called 10 meet very
early IN the year and had declared plainly
Tor Reed as 1t is admitted they would
have declared some time ago. The DELAY
was fatal
Another thing the Reed campaign has
demonstrated is that the speakershjp of
'he mouse Is "a poor place from which to
seek the presidency. In organizing com
mlttces he Is forced to offend about as
hlahy men as he pleases The same thing
IS true OF legislation and appropriations
Everything that is done has two sides, Is n
TWO edged sword. Again IL il clearly dem
ohstratcd that congressman are failures as
agents 20 secure the election of delegates
To national convention. The average
congressman exhausts his personal cnpitnl
In securing his own denomination and RI.
election, and any attempt on his part to
dictate ms TO presidential choice or dele.
gates Is likely To be resented. For this ron.
son many of Mr.. Reeds Investment. m
committee chairmen have turned out
badly. WALrEn WrtIv,S

Peter Doll was German resident of Tempe a dozen years ago. He died and his widow who was left with eight children, married Elijio Barragon.
