EUrrATE YOTR VOTE

Citizens Of st. Louis cannot too early IcyeInn q
lively regard for the politics Of next spring. Then
questions vitality touching tn" city will come up for
decision and the city government viii pass under
review at the polls. The campaign is already in
the making hy The politicians and leaders. Fights
are commencing, factions are lining up.' PARTIES
are forming and candidates are being considered.
The time 10 gain an insight to the politicians mo
tives and party motifs is now by careful reading
of the daily news.
y citizen who ignores developments until cleo
ton day cannot vote conpetently. The oniy man
who is competent TO pass upon the issues of u cam
paign is he who has watched the issues grow and
observed by what maniDulationS they have been
nodded. The well-informed citizen should know the
true inwardness of the political situation.
An excellent cure for municipal ills and Il drastic
check upon bad politics is n knowing body of voters.
With every man educated TO the ISSUES the polls will
speak ever intelligently. The political news is the
school to which the citizen must resort if he would
qualify himself for suffrage duty. Virtually. all Of
politics is public: of necessity the great game is
played in the open; in one analysis politics is a test
of appeals TO the public intclligencc-and bad poll
tics can only succeed through Il want of public dis
elimination.
The politics which is primarily important 10 The
citizen is municipal. City government is the gov
crnment which affects him m"st Intimately. lis
acts for Itself ar as The agent of the State or IA
tional governments. 1t is the Government which
directly affects his conditions Of living. .tnd its
officials are chosen but once in four years.
Once in every four years is not too often to dc.

WELLS AND COOP GOVERNMENT,

Work done, plans finished for carrying on add
tional work, and radical reforms in the policy ana
methods of management, have established by the
Wells administration good-government standards
that must regulate the municipalities business
through many years. Performances which have
raised st. Louis into prominence as one Of the best
governed of the large cities, honor the community
as people possessing high and practical ideals.
The character Of the municipal administration
undoubtedly does reflect credit upon the business
interests and upon the people. \ city cannot have a
better advertisement than aggressive good govern
lrent. nor a worse defamation than misgovernment
Or spoilsism. That an administration is locked at
as an indication OF public opinion and public spirit
is shown in the contrast between the disrcpute
which was brought upon the city but a few years
ago and the reputation which the city has at pres
cnt as a result of good government.
ST. Louis had no standards for 4 long time up
10 four years ago. This the people knew, and this
the world at large knew. ST. Louis was injured
by 4 corrupt administration; and the injury was
enlarged by the support which partisan organs gave
10 the machine. The reason there were no stand
ards was that members of the gang could run for
Office again and again, and after winning con-
tinue at the cid tactics. There was no opportunity
10 put municipal affairs on a business basis.
st. Louis now has standards which have been
forming 1Or TOUR years. 1ne NeIlS administration.
elected on a reform platform. has provided an ac-
tual contrast with misgovernmcnt. 1t has made
the standards so distinct that every citizen who is
Jealous about the commercial prosperity and The
general progress of st. Louis is enabled 10 perceive
and to understand. while lie enjoys, the advantages
of good government. Every citizen feels the virtue
OF decent administration, and consequently there is
emm earnest desire that the next adminiStra-
~tion-whether Democratic or I;epublican-shall fol-
low the new standards.
Partisan organs may play politics" and criticisc
ard rant as much as they please: against their trick
cry the fact remains clear to every honest citizen

How They Lost Their Home.

Orison SWEET MIrden in Success.
Through the gambling instinct.
They let their insurance run OUT.
They bought things thcy did not neel because they
were cheap.
They did not use good Judgment or right proportion in
their expenditure.
They subscribed for everything they could pay for on
the instal.ment plan.
Money enough went down in drink and up in smoke TO
have saved the home.
The father always intended to &C: his life insured, but
died without doing so.
They did not realize how easy it is to get into debt and
how hard i: IS 10 get out.
They tried 10 30 what others expected of them rather
than what tley could afford.
They thought it small to insist OF having an agreement
or understanding put in writing.

-GLOREGERINA OOZE.

Verbal frivoling, punning and such nonsense are
llumor that it is surprising TO find it editorially
c~huckling over and ~playfully toying with the term
''globigerina ooze.' Such an apt pun upon its own
editorial illusions cannot be accounted for by any
supposed ~lightness of the Globes huInor and its
glee over the discovery of the word must he el-
planned by its passion for mud-for which it will
descend even unto the bottom Of the sea. But most
of its readers probably saw the point instanter.
Surely nothing could be more SUCCESSFULLY descrip-
tive Of its partisan exudations than ''globigerina
ooze," and when 1t Is spelled "Globegcrina ooZe' the
application becomes irresistible.
Hood used to observe that n pun Is like 4 cherry
though there be 4 slight outward Indication Of
partition, of ~duplicity of meaning, yet no gentleman
need make two bites 1T it against his own pleasure.
on the other hand, nothing can make q dull thinker
witty, no amount of brain cudgeling: and II is no,
from every stick you can strike fire. SO that the
Globe Democrat. for one reason or another. may fail
TO find or to acknowledge the full significance Of
lis 'Globiserna ooze."
But having begun the laugh itself, it is cstoppnd
from attempting TO prevent the rest of the world
from laughing. Under the circumstances the Globe
can afford TO be very gracious. But should the
Globe-D Democrat get angry, that would be even more
amusing. since re should be afforded an Illustration
gerina ooze. When the Globe really INDUCES the
angry habit its operations are quite as interesting as
the splutterins ebullitions of 4 mud geyser.
