Liberty is the living in full and
complete enjoyment of mental, moral
and physical existence. To live so,
one must be in entire conformity and
harmony with the laws regulating and
controlling conditions and environ
ments. The great principal of all
life is love, and love is the embodiment
of unselfshness. Independence is the
enslavement OF all the attributes of
human nature, and the disregard and
contempt OF all law. 1t means license,
selfshness and arrangement from all
surroundings. 1t ends in disaster,
ruin and chaos, 1t is anarchy. Lib
erty is life. Independence is death.
Liberty is the SOULS hope. Independ-
ence is desolation. Liberty is eternal
Joy and pleasure. Independence is
despair and gloom.

The world is suffering today, not
from ignorance so much as from the
abuse of high and exalted privileges.
Men are wasting precious time and
drifting into forbidden paths, not
from lack OF knowledge, but from a
careless disregard of the obligations
that education and environment have
imposed. Temptation is proving all
powerful in dulling the conscience.
Men stand before the altar and volun-
tarily take upon themselves obliga-
tions that they promise to abide by
until death. They soon forget, and
the outer world is left to wonder
where are those virtues you would
magnify. The daily life denies the
profession. The uplifted arm has
dropped carelessly to the side, to be
again exercised in the practice OF the
same selfish, self-seeking pursuits.
The mind and the heart are still
welded to unhallowed passion. and
the life fails to send forth the cheer
ing word. Ingratitude for favors be-
slowed marks the departing. steps,
and the shadows grow longer and
longer. Our lives are buildings that
are constructed day by day, made up
of lessons, experiences, impressions,
sentiments and influences. The beauty
and worth OF the structure will depend
wholly OH the proper use made of the
material

Why Go East

Over the sun.burned sage brush and
alkali plains, when you may just as well
take delightful, cool and comfortable
ride through the heart of the Rocky
mountains in view of the grandest
scenery on the American continent.
This you can do by travelling on the
Rio Grande system, the far famed
Scenic Line of the World" the only
trans continental line passing through
Salt Lake City, Glenwood Springs, Lead
vile, Colorado Springs and Denver, en-
route to Eastern points.
Three daily express trains make close
connections with all trains east and west
and afford choice OF five distinct routes
of travel. The equipment of these trains
is the best, including free reclining chair
cars, standard and tourist sleepers, a
perfect dining car service and also per-
sonally conducted excursion cars. each
in charge of a competent guide, whose
business is to look after the comfort of
his guests. No more pleasant and mex
pensive means of crossing the continent
can be found than is provided by these
excursions.

Time hurries by so fast that it comes
with something of shock to be remind
ed that Peary, for whose relief the Wind
ward has just sailed, entered the ice
upon his present polar expedition full
four years ago. If his health is unim-
paired and no accident has befallen him,
he should by this time be in better
stragetic position than ever for his at
tack on the pole. Last year he reported
rounding the Greenland archipelago-in
itself no mean achievement. He is well
supplied with dog food, and should have
had on taking the field the largest and
best pack of dogs with which he has
hitherto been supplied From Fort Con-
ger to Cape Hecla and thence directly
in an air line over the sea ice for the pole
this is his plan, and news from him at
any time would not be surprising. 1t ap-
pears that there was no truth in the ru-
NOR that Andree landed in the northern
part of this continent and was killed by
the Indians. This report, which came
from one of the trading posts of the Hud-
son Bay company, located Andree as
landing at point some 200 miles north
of Fort Churchill early in 1900. The fact
that not a single relic was ever recovered
from the Indians, although very large
reward was offered, is taken as proving
that there was absolutely no truth in the
story. A similar story came from Rus
STA some time ago. but that, too, proved
to be absolutely false. Possibly Peary,
in striking to the north from the west
coast of Greenland, may discover some
trace of the Inflated explorer, who hoped
to reach that long coveted goal, the north
pole, by means of a balloon. The sue
cess or failure of the Windward's voyage
will doubtless be known by early fall.

McDougaI|&Cassou
Next door to Santa F'e r. r. Office.

late at night the maiden lady would
peek out of her door at him. Mrs.
June Bride realized that she was being
watched every time she made u move.
Mr.. June Bride completed his ar
engagements for giving the maiden lady
something to talk about last week. BY
arrangement his wife went quietly
down to the front shop of the Peach
blow flats at exactly midnight, and
stood there in the shadow of the door.
Bride was around the corner wearing
= raglan coat with the collar turned
up. and = SLOUGH ha pulled down over
his eyes.
At ten minutes after midnight he
approached the Peachblow Hats
stealthily Mrs. Bride made Il sign to
him from the front stoop TO let him
know that the maiden lady was
watching from her parlor window.
Rushing forward suddenly, he seized
his VIE in his arms and said in a loud
whisper:
My darling. my own darling
\ gasp could plainly be heard over
head
rs he home" asked Bride.
He is out of town for the night,
replied Mrs. Bride, putting all the ten
derness possible into her voice.
Then it is safe for me to come up"
Yes, sweetheart" replied Mrs.
Bride, and then she and Bride went in
and upstairs to their fiat.
After they had passed the maiden
lady's door they heard it open, and
although they didn't look back. they
felt her taking last look at them.
The maiden lady was up at da ybreak
to begin the dissemination of her news.
For once in her life she didn't have to
invent. This time she could tell things
that she had seen with her own eyes
and heard with her own ears.
She FASTENED from fiat to fiat with
the news, and 50 that there should be
no mistake. she advised everybody to
watch the stranger leave the Bride
Hat She was sure that he had not al
ready left.
No. no one in the house believed
anything that the maiden lady said,
but out of curiosity the tenants
watched the Bride fiat with more than
the usual amount of interest that
morning. Promptly at . O'Clock Mr..
Bride came out and started for bust
ness.
The maiden lady almost tainted. Her
neighbors retired to their apartments,
very much ashamed of themselves.
The maiden lady has been trying to
explain ever since. she is still con-
WINGED that there is a scandal in the
Bride fiat but she cent figure out
where it is
The neighbors look askance at her
and she cant get anybody to listen to
her gossip. She looks on Mrs. juno
Bride as the cause of her trouble, but
to all her scowls Mrs. Bride only re
turns the sweetest of smiles.
The other tenants will not be sur
prised to see the furniture van back
up at the maiden lady's fiat any time
now-New York Sun.

Tama County Set Right.

Special to Times Republ1can.
Tama, April 2S.-The report of the
Tama county convention furnished the
Cedar Rapids Republican by cor
respondent from this place fails to
mention the fact that strong resolu-
tions endorsing Gov. Cummins and his
administration were unanimously
passed. Another dispatch from To-
ledo to the same paper states
that George r. Struble heads the del
egation to the state convention, w. ID.
Lee to the congressional and S. NJ. En-
dicott to the judicial From the fact
that one correspondent ignores the en-
dorsement of the state administration
and the further fact that the gentle
men named as leading the various dele
cations were not very warm friends of
Mr.. Cummins in his canvass for gov
ernor, the reading public would infer
that the old fight of 1901 was renewed
in our convention, which was not the
case. No more harmonious conven-
ton was ever held in Tama county
Governor Cummins and his admins
tration was endorsed without q dis
senting vote. And the above named
gentlemen do not head the delegations,
neither do they claim to. Tama county
never selects the chairman of her dele
cations previous to the time Of holding
the conventions.
