In a magazine article Arthur Bris-

to his chief and dwells particularly
upon his great modesty, assuring his
readers that Mr.. Hearst sis one of the
very few men in American public life
who underestimate their own abilities
and personal Importance" Somebody
has taken the trouble to look at one of

The Situation in Illinois.

A few weeks ago the Democrats Oh
Illinois were feeling cheerful over the
deadlock which existed in the Repupii-
can state convention. For GO or ~
weary ballots, day in any day out 1or
weeks, the thousand or more delegates
failed to make any choice of nominee
for governor, and the Democrats
chortled in glee at the prospect OF
division in the Republican ranks when
would make Illinois a doubtful state
this fall. But when Mr.. Deneen was
finally named on the 69th ballot /
clean, able and popular gentleman. 1t
was promptly evident that all differ
ences had been disposed of and that
he would get the united and loyal sup
pert of the party at the polls.
This was somewhat disconcerting TO
the Democrats and they have proceed
ed to make the work Of the Kepubllcahs
easier and more simple in the coming
campaign by laundering in the most
stupid fashion. They have ehuorseu
Hearst for the presidency. which OF
itself is enough Of a handicap, and
they have nominated for governor Il
man by the name Of Stringer, wholly
without standing or prominence even
in his own party. At the recent DEM
ocratic state convention the radical
element was in absolute control, and
it was the kind of a gathering which
would have filled with nausea any safe
and sane Democrat of the Cleveland
type. Thus, through Republican har-
mony and the Democratic demoraliz-
alton and folly, Illinois is as certain to
cast its electoral votes for the Re-
publican nominees, this coming No
vcmber, as is Maine or Oregon.

From Hiah School to College.

The accounts of the graduation eX-
ercises of our various high schools and
academies show to what an extent
these institutions are becoming only
halfway Institutions. To a continually
increasing extent these schools are
made stepping stones to college edu-
cations, and it is evident that the en-
tering classes in our colleges will be
larger than ever next fall. This is as
it should be, and young people who
plan to continue their educational work
at some higher institution are to be
congratulated. They will never regret
the period of four years spent in col
spend their lives, it will be a help to
them and make life infinitely more
worth living. No boy who goes to COL
lege ever regrets it, but we continually
see men who do regret, now that it is
too late, that they did not have the
advantages of college education; and
this regret is not infrequently intensi-
fled by the fact that they could have
had such an education just as we'll as
not, if they had realized the advantages
of it i'll time. But they were in a hurry
to get into business, or felt that more
study would be irksome, and so hurried
out into the world only to regret more
and more kecnly all their lives that
they failed to so from the lower schools
to some good college. Perhaps they
thought they could not afford it, but
any healthy and ambitious boy who
wants Il college education can get it
and should get it.

familiar in the effete East. but they
