To VOTERS I'VE believe Ia pride of
country and write to nation not lack
Ing In its We believe In the possibility
Of real devotion to an adopted country
by those who come from other shore.,
and I write to nation largely made up
Of emlgrsnts. We believe thsre are
more healthy people than sick, more
sane than insane, more honest than
criminal, and write tn u nation !. hos.
unselflsh citizens outnumbar by i've h.

So you and are filled with healthy
sort OF hopefulncse. Like those dear
lovsble people who iusi,ist on seeing nj
ways the bright eide OF trouble, or those
logical sufferers Who Insist on the exist
ence OF the sun no matter how black the
cloud, we believe In our country, We
dare TO Imagine for It greater destiny
than has yet been attained; In short, We
IRE proud of Il. But let Us stop mo-
ment to analyxe our pride; for .'pride
goe.h before fall'' unless II be "A care
fully selected and well-grounded pride,
that has no stiff. neckedness about It.
What Is there about the United States
to make us prondy
Territory. Yes, that Is something ex-
trsordinarily vast and compact, but the
Roman Empire had that aud yet went TO
pieces. The character Of q people has
something to do with the retention OF
territory.
Population! That indeed incre lses by
leaps and bounds. Each census piles up
further millions, but the Chinese Empire
has that fact to meet In even greater
measure, and ~ a nation IL IL tottering
to disruption. In population, quality Is
more important than quantity.
Wealth. The total wealth Of the
nation climbs up into figures that are
beyond comprehension. But Spain ant.
India were, during their prime, richer
than your most golden dream; the for
mer Is now n ,rr,wei own 10 mere moth
ingn-ss among the powers, and the lat
ter has for generations been trodden by
the foot OF the conqueror. The true
wealth OF u nation IL manhood, and the
lack Of that ruined the two mentioned.
Products, | grant the remarkable
range from tropical fruits to arctic pines,
and from pottery-clays TO virgin gold,
but these things are here by the gift OF
Mature. We may be wise and take OF
eat, or we may dispense OF our plenty ia
others need; but the sun shines on other
nations beside ours, and II we may be
proud, much more such nation a:
Engl nd who MAKES up for insulsr ZACH
By getting quotas from every habitabls
portion OF the globe.
Political institutions. Then the pride
must be largely ascribed to those broad
plans Of our fathers, rather than To any
certainty In relation to the future; unless
we come to realize that institutions and
rights are not perpetual motion ma
chimes. They do not run themselves
For example, II progressive plans ant

HERE AND THERE.

The New York sun gives away" the
fact that there are large number OF
letters OF recommendation or introduce
ton given by New York men, with a
string TO them, sO 10 speak. la other
words. in cases where a man does not
wish 20 give such letter, but owing TO
circumstances can not well avoid IL, he
makes known that fact BY private mark
on the face OF the letter itself-asuSlly
In the form Of line under the signature.
80 when the recipient looks at the letter
with the underlined signature, under
standing the symbol, he knows that the
subject matter il not OF personal inter
est 70 the one who writes il. But WIZ
isn't the old style OF writing between the
lines good enough: A writer with or
binary skill in putting words together
can make the blank spaces more eloquent
than ne words themselves. The writer
has seen many a letter, which. worded
in the torm OF a recommendation, told
between the lines Sn unmistaksble tale
OF mediocrity on the part of the one for
whose benefit IL Was written, and indit-
ference on the part OF the one who wrote
IL. And the applicant who i glad 10 get
such letter generally isn't bright
enough TO read anything but the words.

certsin reforms in our pension laws with
a view IN reducing the present large ex-
penditGre without Working hardship 10
any one who is deserving or needy. With
some Of its suggestions the mass OF the
people would hardly agree; but when II
asks Why the government should pension
for life Young widows who married
soldiers years after the close Of the
war, IL asks a pertinent question. When
We consider that the government was
paving pensions 20 the widows OF Revo-
lutiousry soldiers foE nearly or quite n
century after the close 90 that war, We
can only conjecture when the end OF the
pension roll resulting from the Civil War
will come. IL Is notorious fact that a
soldiers pension has often been sn In
ducement 10 marriage between sn old
man and young woman, thereby set
ting y pension for life-sometimes n
long life-upon the widow. Some kind
Of limit might be put 10 this feature OF
the pension business, without either In
justice or ingrstitude on the part OF a
grateful country.
