WONDER if the Hon. PERCY HALEY has
heard from Bath county!

The Rev. CHARLES FREDERIC Goss, one OF
Cincinnati's most popular Preachers, is travel
ing abroad, and his Snapshots" printed daily
in The Commercial Tribune have been enjoyed
by every reader. They have been something
different" from the stereotyped character Of
travel letters. Recently he was at Chamonix
and took stroll across the magnificent Mere
de Glace remarking as to one point of the
journey
ITO the element of sheer enjoyment OF nature in one
OF her grandest aspects added that OF the most graz
cious companionships. At a steep spot OF morning
ascent made the acquaintance OF two young Egyptians
brother and sister, both OF whom could speak four lam
guages, in every OF which think-in English am
sure-they could express the sweetest and nobest sent
ments OF which the soul OF is capable. Before the
day it seemed to il had lived for years
in the same street with them in Avondae."
When he comes marching home Bro. Goss
will probably be qualified to measure the
needs of Egypt for Foreign (American) Mis-
sionaries.

Sons of Chicago MilliOnaires Are
Doing Mental Labor

Sons Of six Chicago r1illionaires have been
working during the summer vacation period in
and near Chicago for salaries ranging from $50
to $50 month. They have accepted mental
positions in preference to the pleasures of
summer resorts, yachting, trips abroad and
mountain climbing, because they are anxious to
study the character of men, become closer to
nature and learn trades and occupations so they
may be able to follow their fathers as captains
Of industry.
These young men are college students and
have millions back of them, but they must first
prove their fitness to handle the vast estates
built up by their fathers. These hard-headed
progentOrs hold that boy who is trained on
cigarettes, steam yachts, automobiles and angel
food is hardly competent to jump into possession
Of their great wealth and hope to handle it
properly.
The East has offered several examples of this
sort, and in Chicago half dozen fine old
families have died out and the great estates
have passed to strangers because the sons we're
not properly trained. So the spectacle is offered
of young men with magnificent homes and all
the Injuries wealth can command. toiling in the
fields, in machine shops or taking their chances
at any employment that offers. They are learn
ing hard lesson, but one that will be Of un-
told benefit in the long run,
These millionaire social settlement workers
are happy at their hard toll. They pay little
attention to the heat of the fields or the work
shop, and when their days labors are at an end
they DO not spend their evenings in recreation,
but spend the time in social research and study.
Some Of the young men will return to their
colleges in few weeks to continue their studies,
but those who have been graduated will continue
their work in expectation Of receiving an in
crease in salary when their work merits it.

ways different kinds Of strife during
an election that have disagreeable
features. 1t gets up certain amount
Of wrangling among neighbors and

can be said Of the campaign just
closed in Ford County that it was as
clean campaign as has ever been
witnessed in any county. There was

through was a goodnatured one.
Some Of the voting did not suit many
Of us, but it is certain that it suited
the majority, or it would not be the
way it was. Ford County is not torn
up over the election, and the people
are in good frame Of mind to get
down to business and forget election
wrangles. Let us all look pleasant,
however we may feel, be neighborly
and turn our minds to doing every
thing possible for the general well
fare Of the county. Let us not for
get that the election is over.

A STRING OF SUCKERS.

The Democrats Of Ford County, as
well as those of other localities in
Kansas, caught beautiful string Of
suckers at Tuesdays election. The
Democrats are excusable if they cele-
brate the victory, and the scratch
crazed Republican should not resent it
il the Democrats faunt the fact in his
face Of their successful fish for suck
ers. The Republican who allowed
himself to be convinced that it would
be smart thing, and an 'Independ-
snt" thing. to scratch his ticket. has
not won the respect Of q single Dem
ocrat. The Democrats are laughing
in their sleeves about the way they
"worked" Republicans. In the Sec
ond Ward in Dodge City, out Of
about 200 Republicans there were
only about 80 straight Republican
ballots. The Democrats, who are in
the minority in this ward, cast 48
straight ballots; and aside from the
complimentary votes cast by Demo
crats for Z. Il. Madison, a good
share Of the other Democratic votes
were straight. It is the same story
everywhere; more straight Demo
cratic tickets than Republican. After
they appeal to the Republicans to
vote Independent, which means to
vote for the opposition, they wink the
other eye and vote q straight Demo
cratic ballot themselves. Why should
they not look upon the scratching
Republicans as suckers? As Repub-
licans, we certainly cannot blame the
Democrats for laughing at us.

with statement that the Republicans

cent people with Overmyer for an

Democrats had won, the Republicans
good naturally admitted that il
looked like a case OF "too many

gan to howl "steal" Hoch is un-

more than any other man, would have
been Invaluable in securing the pass
age Of an anti-pass and two-cent fare
law. It was J. T. Pringle who intro
duced this measure in the Legislature
two years ago, and who came near
forcing it through the house over the
opposition Of some Of the leaders, in
spite Of the fact that it was then a
new thing.
Mr.. Pringle has made a study OF
this and other matters in connection
with railroad Legislation, and he is
probably better informed along these
lines than any other member Of the
last legislature. The railroad and
corporation interests are doubtless
well pleased that he fell by the way
side. Whether they actively contrib
uted to his defeat the State Journal
does not know. Doubtless the in
ternal factional strife among Usage
county Republicans had something to
do with it.
In view Of his experience in legis-

things which the people want, the de
feat Of J. T. Pringle is to be greatly
regretted. Topeka State Journal.
