The Grit-advocate., 1902-10-24
Our Candidate for Commissioner.
The nomination ofC. W. White,

10 succeed himself as commission
er of the First commissioners
district in Sedgwick county, by
the republican convention last
Saturday, was an eXclllent one.
1t was fitting tribute from the
party to a conscientious and faith
full othcial-an appropriate testi
mOnial to the worth of the man
and to the high esteem IN which
he is held by the members of his
party.
1t is true that when Mr.. White
is elected on the 4th day of next
month it will be for Il third term,
and it will be argued by those op-
posed to his election that two
terms in Office are enough for any
man, be he ever SO faithful iE the
performance of his duties. Such
an argument is fallacious; it will
not hold good in the conduct of
private business enterprises, nor
will il hold good in public and
county affairs. The men at the
head of the Dig corporations and
large private enterprises are men
who have been connected with
those enterprises for many years
men who have grown ub in the
business, and who are familiar
with it, conduct in all its branches
These are the men who are recog-
nized oy their employers as the
best men-best because of their
long experience, and their init
mate acquaintance with the busi-
ness. These men are never dis.
charged because of Il desire to try
the merits of other men; rather
are they retained because of their
proven worth and fitness for the
positions they occupy.
So it should he to a certain ex-
tent with the public business.
Whenever, in the estimation of a
majority Of the members Of a po-
Iitical party. any particular offic.
ial is deemed to be better fitted
for the Office he holds, either by
reason of his experience or he
cause of personal ability, than
any other man that might he Sc
Iected, then that official should
be retained in office, whether it
be for third, or even for a fourth
term. Experience should count
in official as well us in private
business concerns. Because IL
man has held a county office for
two terms should be no bar to his
re- SELECTION to a third term. And
If he is the right kind of a man it
will be no bar. We are personally
acquainted with county commits
sioner in Indiana who has held
office continuously for the last
sixteen years, and the chances are
good for his holding it sixteen
years longer, should he live that
length of time. So much for the
third term bugaboo-for il is only
a bugaboo when looked at from a
reasonable standpoint. But it is
the only argument the opposition
can bring against the re. election
of Charley White. Even his worst
personal and political enemies
and every man has enemies-can
not truthfully say aught against
his private or public career. Hon

The Hospital Era.

Bertrand E. Taylor OF Boston, an arch
itect we'll known in st. Johnsbury, went
to Southern California some weeks ago
for rest and to design an ideal hospital
on the coast. He was interviewed by
the Los Angeles Herald and said, among
other things:
For ten years there has been a grad
ual evolution in hospital construction.
While the prit CT pies embodit d are practic-
ally the same, yet elaborate improve
mtnts have been introduced in the wav
OF a vast number of small but important
details, convenience, arrangements and
appliances. Today is the hospital era.
An immense number of them a,e leng
constructed. People in small places who
took long journeys for hospital treatment
can now get much better care in their
home town. The fact that we have 40
hospitals under construction today gives
a very fair idea of the growth OF the idea.
The hospital or sanatorium is no longer
place OF last resort, but place to get
well. America leads the world in this
line of work"
