TOO MANY Pussy DAYS.

In harmony with law and custom,
Governor Toole has designated June
IA to be set apart and observed as
Flag day. For the most part the oh.
serv alton will be confined to reading
notice OF the official proclaim alton.
Taking the country altogether, not
even all the governors of all the states
will pay this much attention to the oc-
casion designed to inspire patriotic
emotions with particular reference to
the flag which all good citizens are
ready to defend with their lives if
need be.
If any practical good purpose has
been served by this recently estab-
lished ceremonial day the knowledge
of it certainly is limited. Admitting
thai there are not too many days de.
voted to rest and wholes ONE senti-
ment in any country, it may easily
happen that there r too many days
assigned to fussy ceremonies which are
not closely related either to recrea.
ton or consideration of desirable
things. Why not q constitution day
as we'll as flag day? The constitution
is quite as valuable q national asset
as the beautiful banner, and Is in
much more imminent danger OF attack
from enemies OF the government II We
may believe q moiety of the assertions
Of eminent statesmen and ''moulders
| of sentiment" Then as q sort of Off
set to Thanksgiving day there might
be Denunciation day in which all OF
the oppressed of our desolate land
might get together and cuss things
generally and in unison instead of in
the desultory and ineffective manner
with which the service is now per.
formed by specialists.
II the persons who seek to distin.
guish themselves in the reflected glory
of past achievements keep on provid.
ing special days for the purpose, not
only "every day will be Sunday bye
and bye" but like Sunday, the ma.
tional holidays will be given scant oh.

the course that it believes to be right,
and which, in its judgment, will assist
in the purifc alton of the political and
social atmosphere.
The direct primary system of nom.
mating political candidates adds to
the responsibility of newspapers in this
connection. In the list of applicants
for political preferment there may be
some whose unfitness Or unworthiness
is known to only a comparatively
small number of voters; and If know
ledge of such unftness is confined to
these, the u%ndeserving candidate may
obtain support from many who have
not been informed upon the matter,
and be placed in a public position OF
honor and trust. Such a success
would be achieved through public ig-
norance OF the true character of the
candidate.
The announcement made by the For.
syth newspaper is good politics, and
an evidence of good citizenship. The
newspaper that would remain silent
while an unfit candid ate obtained sup.
port from voters who were being de.
ceived as to the merits of the appli.
cant for Office, would forfeit its self.
respect, and would be unworthy Of
of all good citizens.
1t is hoped that political conditions
in Chouteau county will never be such
as to call for the discharge Of this
public duty by the newspapers.

1t requires an applicant to file a petit.
