The Summer Sacrifice.
From the Boston Post

From the Boston Post.
The news of the day at this season Is
burdened with the stories Of the loss Of
life through drowning. There is great vart-
ance in-the incidents of these fatalities.
Some occur through bravado in facing the
perils of deep-sea bathing-cramp or ex-
haustion. Others meet death In the seduc-
tive waters of inland lakes and ponds, ven
turesome beyond the range of normal condi-
tons. Some plunge from vessels in the
open sea, confident of their physical powers
to find safe return to their craft. 1t is
a fact maintained by the record that the
cruelty of the elements-wreck, capsizing,
grounding In dangerous waters-is account
able for only very small percentage of
the loss of life charged up to the summer
vacation on the sea and the shore. The
rest Is due to what may be called the per-
sonal equation, the recklessness or folly OF
individuals. And those who follow the
transcript of this record from day to day
will, we think, verify this statement.

Tom Taggart.
From the New York World.

Thomas Taggart, chairman of the demo-
cratic national committee, will nor resign,
but will quietly step aside when the COM
mittee Is organized two years hence" OF
course Mr.. Taggart will quietly step aside"
in 1903. The committee will see to that.
The democratic party will not be fool
enough to go into another presidential cam
paign with French Lick Springs chair
man. But why should Mr.. Taggart wait two
years before he quietly steps aside? Hasn't
he already done enough damage to his
party7

The Need For Clean rIen.

If one were to go to the President of
the United States and ask him to name
the country's greatest need he would re-
ply in his quick, conclusive way, "Clean
men," He knows. Smart men there
are by the thousands; rich men abound
more than in any other age of the wLrld
able meu are found in every State and
township, but even from a population
of eighty millions the chief executive
has difficulty in finding the man of ex.
ceptional character for a post which re-
quires a square and hawless morality.
1t is TO his credit that he misses 10 op-
portunity to preach clean manhood
But neither Presidents nor preachers nor
teachers can do the work of fathers ex-
cept in their own families. We do not
mean TO under estimate the marvellous
influence of the mother. In most lands
men who reach success give their moth
ers the credit "All that am owe to
my mother" said Kincoln. "It was
you who taught me to write so. You
really did, dear mother" said the crab
bed Carlyle. We get our moral qualities
from our mothers, our mental from our
fathers, say the Psychologists, and as we
look back we find this maternal affection
the loveliest thing on earth. But isn't
there a convictian down deep in our
souls that we should have done much
better if our fathers had taken time and
trouble to share our condolences in the
years that counted mos June Define
