THE AGE OF RETIREMENT

(Register and I1eader)
In the course of lengthy editorial
on the senatorial succession in the
Fort Dodge Messenger, George E. Rob-
erts says:
I'VE have no idea that Senator AL
lison. would desire recollection unless he
felt capable of performing acceptably
the duties of the office"
Senator Allison will be eighty years
Of age at the time of the beginning Of
his next term in case he should be
chosen to another term. He would be
eighty-six at the close of the term.
While it may be conceded that Glad !
stone did some of his noblest work for
England during those years and while
it may be conceded that Senator Alli-
son has never rendered better service
than during the past two sessions of
congress, the instances are SO except
tional in character as to furnish no ar
gunlent against the universal expert
ence that if by strength the span OF
life Is extended to four score years the

On the supreme bench the measure
OF usefulness is the measure of years.
Experience should count for much on
the bench. gratitude sought to count for
much in all public service. but judges
appointed for life and entitled by the
constitution to die in the service are
by the c6ncensus of public opinion ex-
pected to retire when the years APP

fairs are usually laid aside 1t is not

ton crowding for a place. 1t Is rec
ognition of the law Of nature that the
middle years are the years for labor.
and the declining years the years for

It was neither q mark OF distinction
nor an evidence Of gratitude when
Iowa chose Senator Gear the second
time Neither was 1t an evidence of
disregard or ingratitude when Iowa
refused to nominate Senator Harlan
for governor. Every age has its own
duties and its own opportunities. and
gratitude Is never so well expressed
as when 1t takes the form Of sound
advice for the prolongation OF happy
and peaceful old age The man who
urges turmoil for the years that are
not cast for turmoil may fiatter van
ity. but he does not evince gratitude
The grateful man recognizes that age
hath. its opportunities no less than
youth-but In another dress.
Such men as Senator Allison and
Senator Hoar are not to be measured
by ordinary standards of public serv-
Ice. Exception must be made for such
careers. But they should be the last
men to establish presidents that can
be utilized by the Platts and Depews

ADVICE TO GRADUATES.

The president of MarshalltoWnss
school board this year was a college
man. a lawyer with a college diploma
and graduate of a professional school,
the father of four children all in COLI
lege at the present time. It IS not
strange that he should emphasize the
value of college training when present
ing diplomas to a graduating class. To
him a high, school commencement
meant literally what the term desig-
mates, a beginning Of education. He
urged the young people to cultivate an
ambition to learn, to go to college even
If they had to milk cows and fire fur
naces to make their way. II their
tastes turned them toward technical
schools he urged them to go there. He
believed that the desire for college
training was an evidence of ambition
aroused and to his notion the great
works of every human life were the
result Of ambition.
/ Speaking to the class President Car
ney said in part:
Have you a desire or wish to profit
by the advantages of a college course
to enter which the diploma that I will
present you will give you admission to
the finest colleges or universities In the
land? If you have such desire cherish
it faithfully and accomplish it if in any
M nj yot 1o0S nj
riches turn you aside from attaining
that great object Some Of the strong
est men and women in the country
have wrung from a life OF toll and
privation that great prize, college
education, the results Of which will
remain with them to the end Of life
Have you a desire to enter upon
some special course of study, for which
it will be necessary to attend some OF
the technical schools Of our land? Dc
that! Go on in unexplored fields OF
culture and attainment. Cultivate q
desire, a very thirst for reading, for
even in the absence Of a special OF
collegiate course. a liberal education
may be gained by thorough acquaint-
ance with the reflections and though
of great minds, as contained in their
hooks. Make this commencement
ideal of a period Of study and self
improvement that Will develop charac-
ter and improve the mind"
And the last point the speaker made
was the best A college man himself
he knew what tremendous advantages
in life could come from college train
ing but he was prompt to urge the
value of constant reading and self
study. He was free to admit that an
education could be wrung from self
culture, even if college course must
be denied This is advice OF the
strongest kind.
