What possible good can ever be done by trying to discover 'who was our friend" in the war with Spain a few years back? If there had been ever danger or needed rescue 1t would be a different matter In a walkoyer war requiring but few weeks of our at tention the task imposed on any assist ing friend could not have been a very terrible strain.

What Do They Think of YoursT q wonder what kind of a mother that boy has,"
 Tt Is easy to guess"
 Two boys were playing marbles as two ladies came slowly along the walk. Just as they were passing one of the boys jumped up with an angry face.
 That isn't so, Jack Pierce, and you know It."
 Tt is." cried Jack. "I beat you fair You're mad because you're beaten. You always get mad
 The angry boy struck his companion and ran away. VIII and Harvey had been watching the game and heard the remarks of the talking with their mother. and told her of the little occurrence.
 "They talked as If Bob had a poor sort of mother" said Will. And that isn't so. Mrs. Spencer's real nice woman, and ever so kind to us boys"
 And so good to Bob" chlmed in Harvey Its shame for folks to say such things"
 But 1t Is a very natural thing to say" said mother. Don't you know that most people judge of a mother by what their children aref"
 70 mother" said Harvey, in grave concern. Do you mean that people will think that of you if we are not good?"
 Certainly they will, my dear, If they think at all about it,"
 "I never thought of that" said their sister Elsie, coming up and laying her head on mothers shoulder.
 "They shan't dare to think you're not the best mother in the world" said Will fercely
 Tt Is for you, dears, to show what kind of a mother I am," she said, put ting her arm around Elsie.
 Mrs. Spencer does try to make Jack good. I know" said Harvey. "She talks to him about his temper and he promises, and then when he gets angry he forgets and flies up again"
 "So. by his not needing her talk he leads people to misjudge her"
 I've don't any of us get into pas slons, like Bob" began Will.
 No, but what do people think when they see boy In school so full of fun that he neglects his own lessons and leads others into triflng. to the great annoyance of his teacher?"
 Will gave rueful little shake of the head.
 "Or when a boy goes to school with rough hair and unblacked shoes, and keeps his desk in such disorder that his teacher writes a complaint about it?"
 That's me-" said Harvey, meekly.

MCKENZIE AT WORK
Old Time Machine in North Dakota
Said to Be in Fine Run
ming Order.
Big Chief Would Be National Com
mitteeman Again-sarles' Can
II didacy for Governor.
Speoial to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Grand. Forks, N. D., Aug. 6.-Chief En-
eineer Alex Mckenzie has started the
republican machine grinding out the l9oe
nolitical grist for North Dakota. Posi-
hilities and situations affecting next
years campaign are being discussed, fol-
lowing visit Of several of the big cogs
In the machine to the chief propeller at
st. Paul.
Mckenzie is giving the state much at
tention This is not because the machlne
Is in any danger from the outside, but
because there is a chance to make it
stronger He has visited several points
In the state recently on his patchlng-up
tour and also met "the boys" In tWos,
threes and tours at st. Paul
At no time in the history Of the state
has the republican machine been SO
strong or In such fine order. Opposition
is stilled. The will Of Alex, Jud. Hans
and their henchmen is law. On the sur
face Mckenzie seems 20 be doing most
Of the managing His mission is that Of
a peacemaker. He wants no fights.
Opposition Has Faded.
There is little prospect of fight. The
anti-machine crowd seems to nave grown
discouraged. The Grand Forks Herald,
edited by George B. Winship, has taken
a tame view of the situation during the
past two years. 1t has criticized the work
Of the machine freely at times, but it
has quit the crusade against the leaders.
For years Winship was to the fore IN
this fight. The support he received was
enough to tire any man. Now he Is
register Of the Grand Forks land office,
his paper Is making money, and while
1t is willing to give voice to any political
grievance and pursue its Independent
course, it seems to be leaving the posi-
ton of general of the ants to any other
desiring it.
M N. Johnson's political prestige has
faded since he left congress and was de-
feated for the senate. Roger Allfn, form
erly governor, is content to work his
farm and rest on his laurels. Colonel
Robinson once Johnson's manager, has a
good government 'sit" as trader at Fort
Yates.
Since Mckenzie was elected national
committeeman he has given much atten-
ton to perfecting the machine organiZa-
ton. The ascendency of Hill influence in
Northern Pacific affairs threw the entire
Great Northern and Northern Pacific in
fiuence into his and Lamoure's hands, and
1t has been welded to wonderful purpose
during the past four years. One Of the
results was seen in the last state con-
venton, where it was next to impossible
to arouse any opposition to the plans OF
the machine leaders which were put into
execution by La Moure. From this dis
lance it looks as if the situation next year
would be locked even tighter. 1t IS to this
end that Mckenzie and his associates are
now working.
What Mckenzie Is After.
It is believed that Mckenzie desires q
reelection as national committeeman
That is the principal object in securing
a delegation to the national convention

GOMEZ WON'T N COME
Says He Isn't Competent to Serve on
Loan Commission.

New York Sun Special Service.
Havana, Aug. Elm view Of rumor
that he was to be appointed a member OF
the commission to visit the United States
and Europe in connection with the loan OF
s35, 100000, General Maxine Gomez, in a
letter to the Lucia, says that the report
is false.
He adds that the government could not
send men like himself, who have never
spoken to capitalists on such matters. It
should send Cuban experts, and should not
forget that positions should not be found
for inexperienced men. The members Of
the commission should be men Of position.
Senator Sanguilly has refused an offer
made to him by the government to become
a member Of the commission. He says
that he is not competent to fill such a po-
sition, as he knows nothing about such
matters.
