We wrong others by unjust suspicious, more than they wrong us by unjust conduct.
 Few men ever learn what it costs one to be suspected of un- reliability in business. The worship of ancestors is a form of idolitry from which Young America seems to be se- cure.
 The strict payment of debts is better proof of Christian char acter than shouting at a camp meeting.
 Solomon said "a still tongue makes a wise head but we have always understood that a wise head makes a still tongue. Only a goose must be always gabbling.
 The perilous point in the ex- perience of our boys and girls comes when they think they are old enough to govern themselves. All IS right if they do but govern themselves, but no one governs himself who does anything which he thinks to be wrong.
 This is an age when men count it an evidence of ability to be radical. Many people, incapable of following, steadily, any calm judgment, act only when they are stirred up, and an issue must be overstated to get their atten- ton. But while radicals lead the battles, conservative men are always called in at least. to lay down the terms Of mutual sur render and draw up the treaty Of peace.

 He cries out nightly for white supremacy.
 But does he fool anybody?
 Not much my Mary Ann.
 Watch him. He goes before the central committee and begs them to let the poor negro vote in the democratic primary. When that fails. and he finds out that he did not get enough white votes to elect him, he gets him self appointed county election commissioner.
 What does this champion of white supremacy do then?
 He appoints a big, burly, buck negro as q judge of election in a white township.
 He says that he believes in White Supremacy. He says that when he is asking for white votes. He thinks the people are fools. and that this will catch them.
 He then puts the negro buck over the Whiteman as judge of election.

NOVEMBER 30, 1906.

We believe t h e legislature should pass a law making it a felony to carry a pistol as a weapon. There are many crimes on our statute books that are felonies, which are in reality not so bad as carrying a pistol con- trary to law. What excuse can one have for carrying a pistol, except to take life? It is true that many men carry pistols, because they are expecting some one to assault them. and they think the other fellow is armed, and they carry a pistol to be on equal terms. If the other fellow could be sent to the penitentiary for carrying his pistol, this eX- cuse would he removed. We would like to see the law tried for awhile, anyway, and see if 1t is not an improvement on our criminal laws.
