ARBoRDAY.

This is Arbor Day. Time was when
Arbor Day demanded that every pa
triotic citizen take his spade and plant
one or more shade trees. Many. of the
beautiful trees in Kansas owe their
existence to Arbor Day.
There is no longer such a demand
for general tree planting in the eastern
and central portions of the state as
there was a quarter of a century ago,
but Arbor Day still has its uses. 1t is
just as important as ever. 1t can
profitably be devoted to cleaning up
ones premises and making ones sur
roundings more attractive by planting
shrubbery and vines, sowing grass, and
preparing for flower and foliage beds.
While there may be no room for more
trees, there is always work to be done
at this time of year in aiding nature
to beautify ones surroundings. 1t is
taken for granted that rubbish Is
cleaned up, but that is not sufficient.
Nothing makes town more attractive
than to have each home surrounded
by a little lawn. ;well-kept and set off
with a few flowers. All that is neces-
sary to secure them is a little labor
and care, and Arbor Day Is good time
to prepare for them. If, however, you

is no law against your doing 1t to-

TAFT.

Some of the political friends of Secre-
tary Taft are advising him to go to
Ohio as soon as he can do so after his
return from the south, and engage in
building an organization to offset that
of Senator Foraker. They say that he
must put in considerable time fixing
political fences and playing at politics
If he wishes to line up the Ohio voter
for him
.'These men," wisely says the Chicago
News, reveal the restricted vision of
the local politician. For Secretary Taft
to carry out their plans would be to low
er his candidacy for the presidency
toward the Foraker level.
IF the Republicans of Ohio should
indicate that Foraker is their choice for
the Republican nomination for president
it would be chiefly because of his work
as a political mechanic. But if they
were to make Secretary Taft their can
didate it would be on the broad ground
that he is an exponent Of the national
policies which the people want carried
out.
''Since Secretary Taft has given every
evidence of being broad-gauge states
man, probably he will not fall before
the temptation to neglect his official
duties to engage Systematically in a po-
Iitical fight. If he carries out his plan
of work for the government that has
been outlined, leaving his political fu-
ture in the hands of his fellow country
men, the result should be strengthen
ing of his standing in the eyes of the
people of the whole country, including
the Republicans of Ohio"
Secretary Taft will do himself more
good by doing his work in Washington
or wherever his duties take him than
he will by devoting his time to playing
politics in Ohio, and it will be a great
surprise to the country if he does not
continue to be statesman instead OF
a politician. He has enough friends IN
Ohio to look after his interests there.

IN INDIANA.

Reports from Indiana indicate that
Hoosierdom is in revolt against the
Interests-the Interests being repre-
sented by the Fairbanks presidential
boom. Just how serious the revolt
| will be remains to be seen. 1t does not
seem probable that the vice president
of the United States should not have
| the backing of his own state for what
ever political ambition he might have,
but it is asserted that anti-Fairbanks
leagues will be formed all over Indiana
to protest against the delivery of the
Indiana delegation to the Interests.
| The opposition to the vice president
| in his own state has only recently be-
gun to crystalline, and the immediate
cause for it's capitalization is said to
| be the attitude of certain newspapers,
owned or controlled by Fairbanks, to-
wards Senator Beveridge. The latter
stands for the Roosevelt ideas in In
diana, and the division is said to be
along the same lines as those in Ohio.
1.-The fight in the two states is as
like as two peas" says a dispatch in
describing the situation. "In Indiana
the vice president has had fair notice
from all over the state that there are
breakers ahead for him, petitions and
planning of the way his papers are
treating Senator Beveridge, and within
the past week or so he has sent out
hundreds of letters to disaffected Re
publicans asking for a personal con-
ference and chance to effect recon-
Citation.
But the movement against him has
been too we'll started to be easily head
ed off. 1t has gone so far that many
Republican newspapers are openly de-
handing the Fairbanks scalp for a
doormat. Among the influential Re-
publican daily newspapers openly OPP
posing Fairbanks are the indianapolis
Sun, the Richmond Item and Portland
Commercial Review. The Sun is the
only Indianapolis daily paper not own
ed in whole or in part by Fairbanks or
his relatives. 1t is the property of
George F. McCulIoch, traction mag
nate and former chairman of the Re-
publican state committee. This paper
says Fairbanks could not carry the
state against Bryan.
1.-The Richmond Item, except for it's
aversion to Mr.. Fairbanks, is an I'M
compromising Republican paper and
most influential in eastern Indiana.
Most of its stock is said to be owned
by William Dudley Foulke, former civ
ii service commissioner and warm
friend of President Roosevelt. Weekly
papers all over the state are already
adding their discordant note, although
the opposition to Fairbanks began to
crystalline only very recently
Among the prominent Republicans
who are listed as opposed to Fairbanks
are Ex-Governor DurbIn; George F.
McCulloch, former state chairman of

THEIR ERROR

1t seems to us that the presidents
opponents have made a mistake in not
coming out squarely and saying that
they did hope to wrest the control of
the party from his hands by bringing
to pass in 1908 the nomination of a
man more suitedtto their tastes. This
would be a legitimate endeavor to
which no reasonable person could
take exception. 1t would be nothing
for any men to apologize for. They
might dissent from details which are
doubtless exaggerated and fanciful as
was at once recognized. but their de-
sire to shake the control of Mr.. Roose-
welt should not have been denied

In speech In philadelphia, ex-Sen-

CT young Republicans, declared that
the Roosevelt policy should be over
thrown. 1t is probable that this well
known corporation attorney believes
all that he advocated. It is because

be done. No greater confirmation

IN NEBRASKA. TOO.

Down in Kansas 1t is being disclosed
that the railroads keep two sets of
valuation figures, one a basis for
assessment for taxation. the other as
a basis for determining adequate COM
pensation from freight rates. That is
nothing new. The Nebraska railroads
have for years played up a maximum
and a minimum valuation by pleading
the poverty act before the state boards
of assessment and then making pad
ded returns to courts passing on legis-
lative freight rate decrees.-Omaha

THE LIGHT THAT FAILED.

When the newspapers of Butte,
Mont, were compelled to suspend
publication on account of labor trou-
bles last month the withdrawal of ad-
vertising opportunity all but killed
business. Deprived of the aid of
newspaper spaee'in exploiting their
wares, the local merchants resorted to
handbills and circulars, the most lib
eral use of which failed to revive
trade. 1t was a most impressive OBJ
ject lesson on the value of newspaper
publ ity. Advertising becomes pos
sitively Indispensable to any merchant
who has once given it a fair trial
