Augustus Thomas has used up an editor who called him
Miss Gusse Thomas Evidently the particular editor has
never seen Tn Mizzoura," Alabama" and Arizona" or
he might have known that the author of these plays,
whose men are manly fellows. would not have tolerated
such a term of reproach. Mr.. Thomas has gone into pol
itics. and doubtless is prepared to accept some of the or
binary penalties that go with political life, but he does
not propose to be ridiculed out of the business.

Among the %eulogies pronounced upon Abraham
Lincoln's character the most complete and eloquent
is that contained in the words: He was not
schooled: he was educated" Every American rec
ognizes the truth Of the condensation. There is no
North and no South in appreciation of the man who
was educated in the American conduct of life.

Protection Tariff in 1910.

Ph1IaQeIpnIa ReCOru-
Representative Littlehed has made a rather wide ex-
cursion in quoting a speech Of Sir John Culpeper in the
English House of Commons in 1910 against trusts, with
the comment that there were then no protective tariffs.
There were no trusts at that time except Government
monopolies-f they could be called such; but what he says
Of protective tariffs is conspicuousIy inexact. There were
not only protective duties on imports. but imposts on ex-
ports

Should FulnI1 Platform pledge.

WaShington Post
It seems that there sro some Republican members of the
Senate who object to changing their minds again on the
question OF Statehood. 1t is a trIhe embarrassing to have
ones mind in a constant state of turmoil, but at the same
time it will not be so terribly inconsistent for Republican
statesmen to meet their national platforms at least half
way.

POEMS WORTH w
INDIAN NAMES
BY LYDIA HUNrLY s1GouRNEY.

: say they all have passed away.
That noble race and brave;
That their light canoes have vanished
From of the crested wave;
That. mid the forests where they roamed
There rings no hunters shout:
But their name Is on your waters
Ye may not wash 1t out.
'Tisw where Ontario's bfllow
Like Oceans surge is curled;
Where strong Niagara's thunders wake
The echo Of the world;
Where red Missouri bringeth
Rich tribute from the West;
And Rappahannock sweetly sleeps
On green Virginia's breast.
