enforcement question. Of course
the platform adopted by the con-
vention comes out for law enforce
ment, but what does that amount
to with an officer like Cameron is
said to be to back it upp
If they were really sincere in
their desire for law enforcement
We believe they made a mistake in
making their fight subject to the
action of their party convention.
They should have gone into the
fight with the intention of fighting
it to n finish-within their own
party if possible. but if not, by
some other means.
Of course it is hard thing for
a party newspaper or a man who
is asking party favors to bolt the
party ticket, but why should man
or newspaper who wants to see
the law enforced be compelled to
support candidate whom they
are led to believe will not do his
duty, if it isn't the "tyrany Of par
tisanship3"

The Real Russell Sage

1t is very probable that the gen.
eral estimate of the life of Russell
Sage does that gentleman an in
justice. The world has been in
the habit of looking at him solely
through one peculiarity-his ex
cessive personal economy. The
pictures of Mr.. Sage printed in the
newspapers tend to emphasize this
popularity. In view of this fact
it is refreshing 10 see such pic
ture of Mr.. Sage as that printed
in the Youths Companion, for it
evidently comes nearer to giyin g
US the likeness of the real Mr..
Sage than what We have been Civ
en- heretofore. In this picture he
has the very pleasing appearance.
In commenting on the life of
Mr.. Sage the Companion closes an
article as follows: ut may read.
lily be granted that Mr.. Sage's out
ward life had in it little to appeal
to popular sympathy or affection
yet there was much in it to appeal
to common sense. His independence
of public opinion, the simplicity
of a life led amid much senseless
and disgusting ostentation, his
business probity and foresight, his
religious constancy and the purity
Of his domestic life, are all facts
upon which young men may pom
ner with profit. Moreover, no man
can be judged with absolute jus.
tioe by his fellows, least of all
one who lived so reserved and self
contained a life rs Mr.. Sage"

One day OF the strenuous life Of q big
city was enoagh for two Missouri boys
who ron away from their home and
came to KansasCity with 65 cts as their
combined capital. They we're given
something to eat by the local authorities
and sent home, sadder and is hoped
wiser for their experience. They ran a.
way from homo simply because the farm
was "slow" and they yearned for ex-
citment. They wanted TO be where
there was something going on. They
did just what many other country boys
have done before them, but they escap-
ed more fortunately than many others.
In this day and age Of the world, when
the pace Of great cities is so swift and
the city life is besstwith SO many dang
ELS, a good home on the farm is nigh
ty good place to stay in. When il is a
matter OF choosing between three good
meals-country meals and what Soc
will buy 10 q big city, the simple life is
unquestionable the better life. There
is an old song still sung in rural COM
NJ unities which has refrain is SEINE
thing like this:
"Better try tho old farm while longer;
Don't be in hurry to CO."
History is full Of picturesque example
OF farm boys who have come to the big
city to make their fortunes and made
them., Most mon who have amount
ed to,anything in our history began life
on farm. There is something ID the
energizing and vitalizing influence OF
farm living that is potential asset 10
the struggle of life: But for. all that,
