WOULDN'T TAKE AITOTST'S $50.
Honest Rustic Refused to Keep Money for
Dog He Did Not Own.

An ancient tale, as automobile yarns go.
has a sequel quite in keeping with the original
story. The story has to do with the farm
hand upon whom was forced fifty dollar
bill to pay for dog that did not belong to
him, and it proves the high sense of integrity
possessed by some ruralites not members
Of the suburban constabulary. The story
goes that well known New York automobiist
overlook farmland and dog on the road
The dog ran in front of the machine and was
killed. The automobilist stopped long enough
to press n fifty dollar bill upon the rustic and
then drove on, leaving the man in open
mouthed wonder as he had not owned the
recently deceased canine
The story generally has for its automo-
bling hero no less n parsonage than W. X.
Vanderbilt. Jr.. though sometimes II has been
fastencd upon other equally skilful drivers
without regard to their regulations for careful
driving. Later developments show the in
herent and conscientious honesty of the man
on whom the $50 WAS forced. The proof of
this is in the sequel. which is that the Pioneer
MOtorist" Of Park row. New York while driv-
ing over that same road month after the
accident, found the CANNES carcass with the
fifty dollar bill on top Of il, weighted there
with stone. awaiting the coming of the dog s
real owner.

Thomas jefferson has again been
forced to take views on political ques-
tions which he was never known to
hold during his life. 1t seems par
ticularly fortunate that the democrats
should possess a leader who is so
dead that he cannot refuse to endorse
any policy that the party may choose
to favor. If he had been alive these
several campaigns past he might have
had objections to shouldering re-
sponsiblity for the issues that have
been thrust upon him, but it is just
as certain that dead men may be safe
ly credited with urging particular re.
forms as that they tell no tales
Therefore as long as Mr.. Jefferson
remains dead he may be expected to
do and say things for his party that
living leaders cannot give the required
force and impetus.

The throne of the sultan of Turkey
is now said to be in jeopardy because
of the rebellion in Arabia. There
might be worse things happen to Tur-
key and the civilization advancement
of Europe and Asia than a change of
government in Turkey. The sultan
has persistently refused to admit re-
fning influences to his country and
government that would not only
admit but encourage the best that
civilization has to offer would mean
a great deal to the entire world. The
Turks and the Russians have been
the slowest to conform to modern
ideals and a change of governmental
influences in both instances might be
just what is required.
