science OF government, the first
requisite OF all civilized nations.
1t is most necessary in represen-
tatiye governments where all
great questions are submittedlto
and solved by the people
through their representatives;
where every great issue has, or
at least is given two sides or a
negative issue; and where oppos-
ing parties rise and strive, and
by their strife insure the politi-
cal welfare, and give strength
and progress to q great CON-
monwealth.
A politician is, strictly con-.
strued, one versed in, and pro-
fessionally active in the practice
of the science OF government;
but, in q broader sense, every
citizen OF a republic is, or should
be n politician, in so far as he
should have n knowledge Of the
science OF government and there
by have an intelligent use OF the
ballot in the exercise of the high
est preogative OF the citizen at
the polls.
Politics is great game where
the brightest minds are pitted
against each other in the politi-
cal arena. 1t is n game ON
which the people should keep the
closest watch that they might be
able to exercise judicious and in
tellegent care in the selection OF
their leaders, to the end that
their interests be placed and kept
in the safest hands, and that
they might be the better able to
thwart the schemes of the de-
signing politician, the unscrupu-
lous manipulation and the politi-
cal adyentnrer. Washington's
solemn injunction, "Put none
but Americans on guard" is full
Of meaning; no less SO is the
adapted version, "Put none but
good men in Office; and, what
is more fundamental, SO far as
it is possible, put none but good
men up for Office. Constant vigi-
lance is necessary for clean ad-
ministration Of public affairs.
History is rep]ete with the
records of the rise Of nations and
their downfall because OF the de-
fects in their systems OF govern
ment which made possible the
rise Of corrupt rulers and the re-
duction of the peasantry. But
here, in America, we have a sys- |
tenn OF government, conceded to
he the best in the world, and the
finest ever devised by man. 1t
can be kept SO and perpetuated
forever by the persistent civil
education OF the people. who
have in their own hands the
weapons Of government which if
rightly used will maintain our
free institutions inviolate. Our
system OF government needs no
change; need Of improvement is
not apparent; but it does need
clean, wholesome administration
and il any people know how to
administer government right
eously and courageously, it is
the American people.

According to the teachings OF ad'
vancod modern astronomy, Il Is a mis-
take to suppose that the shape OF the
moon Is similar TO that OF tho earth
II is believed nowadays that the moon
is a perfect ollipse, lbs figure being
nearly exactly one-thlrG longer than
II is broad. This elllptlcal theory OF
our satellites shape is founded on the
well.known fact that certain side
lend, rather OF tho moon Is always
presented to our view. This Is caused
by the moon revolving once on her
axis in exactly the same period OF
time that she reyolyes around the
earth. Hex elongated shape was prob
