think our American spirit of rest
lessness has much to do with personal
failure. The fever to gain riches and
honor in hurry leads to slurriug
of work and laxity of morals. We
have too little of the stubborness of
purpose of our early ancestors. Mod
ern life is almost game of touch and
go. We are striving continually to
accomplish more than we are built to
accomplish; the twentieth century man
is two-horse power engine trying to
do the work of a freight locomotive.
The tendency of the average young
man is 20 fly before he has learned to
crawl. He will quote you Emerson's
phrase, glitch your wagon to a STAR"
but he forgets that one must first get
near enough to his particular star be-
fore the hitching process can be ac-
complished. There is one kind of
ambition that works only for evil, and
that is the kind of ambition which
says, 81 will succeed at once. Let

have to pay the freight.
When Frederick Douglass married
a white woman, his power was gone.
1t did not elevate him IN the estima-
tion of white men. 1t lost him caste
among the people of his own race.
Booker Washington, as hcad of the
Tuskegee school, was admirable. AS
head even of the kitchen cabinet he is
to be pitied. A red rag to racial pre-
judice, an object of envy to those blacks
who are intelligent enough to differen-
tiate, an offense to white Republicans,
an offense to white Democ ats at the
South.
Truly, the President did Booker
an ill-turn in this business.
Looking at it from partisan point of
view, Democrats may take not little
to themselves. Whatever
happens, this is not our funeral. Out
in the cold as we may be, shivering as
we are--and hungry, yea, verify, and
as we stand around the

envy either of them, or to exclaim of

THIS IS NOT OUR FUNERAL.
ID mocrats May Take Comfort

Mr.. Henry Watterson, editor of the
Louisville Courier-J ournal, makes the

of African descent, has the right to

"The President need not be re-

Coverings of litter sufficient to shade

be put on when frequent freezings are
likely and before much damage is done
to the leaves, as they are of very little
use when yellow blotches are burned
in them. The coverings may be heav-
Ter on late paintings intended for spring

not a good hold of the soil, much loss
will occur from the disturbance Of the
