It is not a political question at all
as the News would have the public
believe. The charges are NOT made
because James Yerington is a can
didate for Congress on a Republican
ticket. Commissioner Hardin is also
under fire and the Appeal believes in
having the facts shown uD and the
blame fall exactly where it belongs,
The State appropriated 100000 ~

counties and they acknowledge them

Rendine and Talking.

Books are no substitute for talk.
They come Out Of talk and go back into
talk. We doubt if reading alone ever
made "a full man" II has been said
that reading is thinking with some one
elses head, but talking is thnking-if
we may borrow u similc from the motor
car-with two head power. As book
worm is TO the man Of the world so is
the silent thinker to the talking think
or. The man who does not talk is n
stranger upon earth. He does not know
his fellows. and they do not know him,
and those we do not know we cannot
greatly like. Little do men perceive
what solitude is ana how far il extend
eth. for crowd is not company. and
faces are but a gallery OF pictures and
talk but tinkling cyInbaI. where there
is no love" Yet man may do heroic
deeds and never talk at all in our sense
Of the word. and he may be n learned
man and never express an opinion ON
any subject Of the first consequence.
All the same. we agree with Bacon
that inasmuch az he Is shut up I'm him

perish his understanding" - I@114i'u

much of the credit of reorganizing the
