The South has wandered forty years
through a wilderness of scctionalism
for this vision of the promised land
of perfect nationality. 1t has longed
for some Messiah of patriotism and
brotherhood to rise I'm the North and
to reach out to it the hand Of equality,
having a heart in 1t. To Theodore
Roosevelt this happy lot has fallen;
and, having fought him like man,
the South sends the memory of all
frictions to the rear, and greets and
acclaims MIN as a kinsman.
Though we differ tomorrow, never
again shall there be from us accr-
bity of thought, or speech. Today, at
least shall be given to the love Of
God, to the fellowship of manhood,
and to the unity and glory Of our
country. Let mean and paltry bigots.
let glum- faced partyism, for a mo-
ment stand aside. Room. room alone,
whilst the President passes through
the states lately in rebellion" for the
Grandeur of the Nation and the Maj
esty Of the People!

Sweet little one" he cried,

And lift you to my Side;

And you came on the sccrc,
Though you were lonely and forlOrn,

And If you loved me-" she replied,
with all a lover S love.
You would not INT me to your side
Nor seek me from above;
You would not speak Of stopping down
70 raise me from below
For love would sweep away your crown
And all your kingly show"
He gaZod down in her flashing eyes
And slowly shrank away;

Forgetting kingly sway

Would win her favor must

Why Missouri is Happy.

As a result of the st. Louis exposition
ana Of the splendid Republican victory
in Missouri last fall, the state Of Mis-
souri, is getting better and more favor
ably known to the rest of the Union
than ever before since it was admitted
III 1920 The Kansas City Star, which
classifies Missouri as the state Of SUI
perlatives, explains in the following
50 happy just now.
Some truths about Missouri: Mis-
souri, has tWenty-thrce state institu-
tons; it never had a general crop
failure; it is the leading clover state in
the union; II has more stock farms
than any other state: it has the largest
acreage Of blue grass Of any state; it
has the largest permanent school fund
in the United States: it raises one-tenth
of all the corn raised in the world; it
produces so per cent of all the zinc
mined in the world; it has one-third
more apple trees than any other state;
its farm land has advanced 40 per cent
in the last four years: it has the larg-
| eet yield OF cotton per acre of any state
in the union; it has the lowest rate of
t. Xation of any state"
Missouri is a greater and better state
| than most Of us here in the East have
| appreciated. No wonder such a state
| steps out of the dwindling Democratic
| ranks and into the great Republican
| column. 1t stands now where it be
longs in national politics and where it
should remain through all the future
years.

Believers in the famous legend Of st.
Patrick driving the snakes of ireland
into the Atlantic ocean have had their
faith sadly shattered in recent years by
the frequent discovery of snakes
wiiggling their way over the soil of the
Emerald Isle. A correspondent of a
New York paper writing letters home
from O visit to the old country tells Of
meeting snake four feet long on the
high way near Wicklow and killing it
with his walking stick. This was a
small snake, to be sure, in comparison
with the great, kissing monsters which
are represented in the highly colored
prints portraying the Punishment cere-
mony, prints which are found upon the
walls of every wel-regulated Irish
home. Still, even a four-foot snake is
not to be despised and ignored when
one meets him in the highway, espe-
cially in land whence all snakes are
supposed to have been banished for
many centuries

The death of ex-Congressman Jerry
Simpson, of Kansas, removes the most
unique and conspicuous figure among
those statesmen who came into prom
inenCe when the wave of Populism
swept the middle West While he was
in Congress no member of that body
had his name more frequently in print
He had something to say on every
question, and what he had to say was
his own, and, moreover. he had his own
way of saying it. 1t is said that the
hundreds of speeches he made never
changed n vote on any question of
legislation, but before his term of ser
vice had ceased he had changed the
scorn and ridiculc which greeted his
appearance into respect and per-
sonal regard on the part of his associ-
ates. He was a native of New Bruns-
wick, served in an Illinois regiment
i'll the Civil War, and was member
at different times of all the political
parties.

The New State Chairman.

The action of the Republican State
committee at it's meeting, last evening,
in electing Hon. Seth NJ. Carter of
Lewiston, as chairman in place of Hon.
f. NJ. Simpson, resigned. will have the
approval of all the members of the
party throughout the State. Since it
has been known that Mr.. Simpson. I'M
der the increasing pressure of official
and business duties, would be obliged
to give up the position of chairman, ii
has been generally understood that Mr..
Carter would be his successor, and SO
the selection of the committee causes
no surprise.
The choice of Mr. Carter was unani-
nous and comes as a well-deserFed
tribute TO one of the most able ana
faithful workers within the party. MI
Garter has long been member OF me

ING Androscoggin county in that I'M
nortant organization, and in campaign
after campaign has shown himself an
innortant factor in the splendid Series
of victories which the Republicans of
Maine have won in recent years. He
is n man of exceptional executive abil-
ity. broad-minded and far-seeing, al
DDS, never given to boasting, and never
neglecting any essential detail. Though
he has been a vigorous worker for the
Republican cause for many years, yet
he commands the admiration and
respect CT his opponents for he is a
man of untarnished personal character
and he always fights fairly and hon
estly.
Mr.. Carter is a native of kennebec
county, having been born in Winthrop
in 1854. He graduated from Bowdoin
College in the class of 1875. For near
~ so years he has been leading MEM
Der of the Androscoggm county bar,
and by his high ability and tireless in
drstry has for years been recognized as
one of the leaders of his profession in
the State. He has held few public
offices, preferring to devote himself to
his profession and working in the
ranks, whenever an opportunity pre-
scented. as a good citizen and a loyal
ana active Republican. He is in every
way eminently fitted to take up the
work where Mr. Simpson is obliged to
lay it down, and under his leadership
the Republicans Of Maine will enter
next years campaign full of confidence
and courage. The State committee
has chosen wisely. and the Republicans
of Maine will give the selection their
loyal ana enthusiastic endorsement.
