WANTED--YOUNG MEN


There is a growing demand for clean,
manly young men, in all the professions.
The railroads; the large city stores; the
government, and most of the large COM
panies that employ many men are look
ing for young men who do not drink,
smoke, swear, gamble, to fill responsible
stations. Young men who can fill these
requirements have no trouble in getting
a start and in securing rapid promotion.
The Bellows Falls Times says: TOO
often young men get the mistaken notion
that being little tough is being manly.
Beardless youths of Is and 10 years think
that the ability to swear and smoke
cigarettes and guzzle beer qualities them
for the society of their elders. Older
men, even those addicted to the worst
habits, may make light of these capers
of the youngsters, but down in their
hearts they pity them. They admire a
young man who is clean and decent, no
matter what their own records may
be-"
In this connection what President
Roosevelt said to delegation of young
men at Oyster Bay recently is worth
reading and remembering by young and
old.
81 do not want to see Christianity pro.
fessed only by weaklings. l want to see
it moving spirit among men of strength.
do not expect you young men to lose
one particle of your strength or courage
by being decent. desire to see in this
country the decent man strong and the
strong man decent, and until we get that
combination in pretty good shape we are
not going to be by any means as success
full as we should be. There is always g
tendency among very strong men anC
among boys who are not quite young
men as yet to think that to be rather
wicked is rather smart; it shows tina
they are men. Oh how often you see
some young fellow who boasts that he il
going to see life. meaning by that that h,
is going to see that part of life which i
is thousandfold better if it remains un
seen | ask that every man here consti
tute himself his brothers keeper by set

The Democratic Advertising.
tFrom the Lynden Journal.)

The democratic state committee has
purchased advertising space in several
of the leading republican newspapers
of the state including the Journal, and
this week our readers will find three
columns of the democratic gospel" on
page five. We disclaim any response
bility for the views therein expressed,
with most of which we disagree. The
democratic state committee have bought
the space as any other advertiser buys
space, and the matter is unobjectiOnable
except as political doctrine. There are
some so hide-bound that they would ex-
pect a newspaper to refuse to sell such
advertising space to the opposition par
ty, but considering the scarcity of DEM
ocratic newspapers as well as voters in
this state, we believe it to be no more
than fair play to give them an oppor-
tunity to elucidate their doctrines, SC
long as they pay for their space and
assume the full responsibility for theil
utterances. We do not propose to be.

Golfers Weekly is one of the papers
which tries to maintain a conservative,
Independent position. The fame of its
editor is worldwide and his serious
Judgment is as sound as his sarcasm and
humor. The following concerning Mr..
Parker's telegram, which forms the lead
ing editorial in the current issue of Col
liers under the head of "Hysteria,"
should be read by every fair-minded
voter:
"There is coming to pass in regard to
the Parker telegram about what was to
be expected. 1t matters not whether
they are for the Judges election or
against it, ordinary, clear headed
Americans must suffer a reaction after
being worked into excitement over al
legations that are absurd. They must
come to see the facts in the more or less
clear light of common sense.
They observe the part played by Mr..
! August Belmont in the present cam
paign.
They read that Senator McCarren re-
ceives a salary of 1000 year from the
Standard Oil Company. Whether that
be true or not, it is certain that the
Senator is very 'smooth" man.
They know something of the history
of the adroit Blue Eyed Billy Sheehan
and a good deal more of the history of
David Bennett Hill. The principles of
Bourke Cochran are not shrouded in
mystery.
"These men form the group nearest tC
Judge Parker; most likely to know and
influence his councils; most likely, were
he President, to compose or suggest his
Cabinet.
Now men of this stamp secured the
nomination of Judge Parker at St. Louis
acting as his Spokesman. Certain
promises and compromises were neces
sary to obtain that prize. When the
nomination was secured and could not be
taken away, without putting the Demo
cratic party in the position of seeming tC
reject "a man because he favored golC
the Judge sent his telegram.
HE was Immediately hailed by tina
} part of the press which is primari
ly interested in markets as a hero whC
had been willing to sacrifice the Pres
idency to his duty. Such idiocy mus
have its rebound.
Organs cross of gold metaphor, which
drove another class of people into frenzy
had its reaction, although even it, fal
lacious as it was, had a much soldier
foundation than the childish story tina
to offer back a nomination when il could
not possibly be withdrawn withou
absurd disaster was the bravest deco
ever perpetrated in American politics
Inanities of that kind never pay. Tn,
people may become excited for momen
but then they settle down to contem
plate they are disguised with tn
spectacle they have made.
Judge Parker played good politics, o
he did not. Those who tried to turl
him into hero did all they could t.
turn him into an ass. The newspape
which is trying to prove that it force
him to send the telegram is not doin
him any more harm than the other
which are still hailing him of Casabi
{ anca.
IF the Democrats wish to carry Ne'
York, not to talk of any Western State
they had better get busy and show tina
Judge Parker is less of a plutocrat an
more of Democrat than Theodor
Roosevelt"

Novel Experiment In Reformation of

An interesting experiment Is at pres

criminals Of from sixteen to twenty
one years OF age, according to the Lon

kept apart from the Others and wears
a distinctive dress, according to wheth-
er 1t is penal, ordinary or special The
last grade is the highest and contains
those whose conduct is most satisfac-
tory.
The most important point of the code
is employment in association In work
shops or in outdoor labor, such as
farming. gardening, etc, so that while
the subjects are undergoing punish
ment they are also being specially In
structed IN useful trades and indus
tries.
Special attention is given to their ed
ucation by instruction in the ordinary
subjects Of the elementary education
code, by lectures and addresses and by
their being provided with books.
Before the prisoners discharge ar
engagements are made with some phil
