THEY MUST DIE FIRST.

The late Governor Pingree had a
breezy way of talking that was SO un-
conventional that it gave many the
impression that he lacked the ability
needed in high position. The truth is
that with some idiosyncracies, he was
an intensely practical man. In private
business he made a fortune and in
public office he was fearless and had
the true conception of the maxim
outlook. an eminently conservative
journal, had the correct idea OF Gov.
Pingree. 1t says of him:
HE was charged with having assail-
ed the rights of property, but no man
in our time has done more to give con-
crete reality to Emersons distinction
between good wealth that is earned and
wealth that is merely capitalized extor-
ton. The fight which he made against
the fperpetuation of unearned dividends
on watered securities will in the emo
make safer and surer the payment OF
earned dividends upon capital actually
invested in any form of industry. All
over this country his struggles have
given courage to those who are battling
for the maintenance of the rights of the
common people,
Some men have to die to be under
stood and to be measured at their true
value. This is particularly SO of men
who think aloud as Gov. Pingree did
and who carry/a sharp tongue in their
heads. While he lives, his sharp say

BEST TEMPERANCE SERMON.

The best temperance sermon we have
seen in decade is one preached in a
fashionable bar-room in New York city
a few days ago. The man was no
preacher and had no idea of sermoniz-
ing. Tt was Col. Jack Chinn, of Ken
lucky, who with a party of convivial
spirits had gone into the bar to take
something To the establishment of his
friends, Col. Chinn called for settler"
and when his friends expressed aston
ishment, Col Chinn sat down his glass
and said:
"All the trouble / ever had in my life
came through whiskey. In my early
days / started with beer, and at various
stages of the game / tackled cham
payne and then We went on to brandy
and whiskey, and sometimes it would
take week or two to straighten your
humble servant out. Three months ago

WHAT OUR FLAG STANDS FOR.

Wherever the American flag is raised
erty, independence and equality. What
our flag is to the nation, Hostetter's Bit
tiers is to the individual, inasmuch as it
not only gives you freedom from your
ailments, but protects your system in
such a manner that they cannot return.
When your stomach gets out of order,
causing you to belch after eating, or
when your are so nervous that you toss
about all night, unable to sleep, you
should certainly try it, because it will
strengthen your stomach, steady your
nerves, and induce sound, healthy sleep,
and for Indigestion, constipation and bill
iousness there is nothing to equal it.
Rheumatism is also counteracted by its
direct action on the kidneys

But let the lovers of the truth remember
that it was for the telling of it that Je-
sus Christ was crucifed. He spoke it at
the cost of his own ease, his favor with
men, and of life itself. The crucifixion
business is still going on, but the resur-
rection day is coming by and by.
THAT great evil exists in general pol
itics no one will deny. Let this audience
be a court, draw bill of indictment
against any political machine, put some
one on the stand as a prosecuting witness
who is attached to the machine and knows
all the inside. Swear him to tell the
truth, the whole truth, and nothing but
the truth, and before he would get half
through his testimony somebody would
cry out, Turn the hose on him and wash
him off, 1t requires a bit of moral cour-
age for one to say that it is dangerous
to contend against the machine. 1t usu
ally has no mercy on the man who would
criticise it's methods. No one knows this
TO be the truth better than does the
editor. Politics. SIR observed Mr.. Pick
wick, comprises in itself, difficult
study of no inconsiderable magnitude.
Mr.. Pickwick was a philosopher.
THE editorial spirit needed for these
times as it has been for all time is this
spirit OF moral courage. The editor should
be afraid of nothing except a violation of
the law which commends the right and
condemns the wrong. He should fear no
man, machine, committee or ring. Let
them be high low, rich or poor, he
needs the spirit that will lift him out of
the domain of fear. He should be as free
as bird and write what he estimates
to be the truth. frankly, strongly, boldly"

A PRETTY CLOSE RATIO.
Springfield Republican.

1t would be interesting to know just
when the junior Senator from South Caro-
lima discovered that Gods purposes were
being worked out in the Mckinley expan-
sion policy, He did not know about it
just prior to the ratification of the Spanish
peace treaty, when he denounced the
whole forcible annexation program in the
strongest terms. The knowledge came to
him some time afterward. and from
whom, or where? Meantime it cannot but
be remarked, even at this distance, that
the Senator's claim of divine purpose in
creases in emphasis in pretty close ratio
with the increase in the number of Nc
Laurinites placed in Federal office by
President Mckinley.

If the young men who are measuring

Edward Wigglesworth. Hollis pro-
fess0r of divinity at Cambridge in a
little pamphlet published in the porten-
tous year of 1913. must have had a cor
rect idea of the prosperity of this coun-
try during the century just closing, as
he predicted that the population Of the
British American colonies in 1900
would he SO.OOO,OOO.
Included in this estimate was Nova
Scotia. now the Dominion of Canada,
which with its last recorded census re-
suit of 4.SOO. 600 added to the 100000
of the United States fulflls almost TO
the letter the accuracy of the Wiggles-
worth prophecy. And this somewhat
remarkable forecast was not based up
on any species of guess work, but upon
a we'll defined and clearly constructed
mathematical theory, which, reduced
to plain words. can be best described in
the language of its author:
