Be Fair f!
Always
Fair !!

1t Is truth 10 familiar as to be
almost a platitude, that we gain real and
permanent benefit only from those
things we acquire through our own
effort and at the cost of some hardship
or personal sacrifice, and that we value
them in exact proportion to the degree
of effort required to obtain them; and
it is also true that we find no means of
growth and development in advantages
which are bestowed upon us as a gift
from some one immeasurably richer
and more powerful than ourselves. And
just behind this truth lies the question
OF the great primal right given to all
humanity-the right to work.

spring days in Washington, and
as there was nothing particularly
pressing for the Cabinet meet
ing, Friday being a Cabinet day,
the President sent word to his
official family that there was
nothing doing in the Cabinet
line, called on his military aid,
young Fitz Lee, and taking hor-
ses, the two, with some of the
foreign military officers, galloped
off for a cross country run and
did a little fence jumping when
far enough away from Washing
ton not to attract attention. Sec
retary Garfield did not get the
message cancelling the Cabinet
meeting and he came all the way
to the White House to find the
Cabinet table deserted.
Secretary Garfield is having a
lively time with the Interior de-
partment since he has taken hold
of it. There has been the gen.
eral cleaning up of the Land Of
flee which was left to him by
Secretary Hitchcock, there has
been more or less trouble over
extra hours for clerks in several
of the divisions where the work

has been the necessity of ap-
pointing a successor to the Com
missioner of Patents, Mr.. Allen,
who has resigned. This last can
hardly be ranked as an appoint

it touches many people closely

The road to our cemetery is
very much frequented, and trav-
elled by strollers and others, on
account of which some pains
ought to be taken to make the
appearance attractive and de-
lightful to the eye, yet instead,
what is the condition to be found?
By the storage of refuse and filth
along it's side it has been rem
dered about as hideous as it can
be made. The ground along the
way has been made the dumping
place for all kinds of refuse and
filth : the cleanings of other peo-
ples' premises-and presents any
thing but savory condition, and
may be the breeder of disease
and contagion. Decoration Day
is coming and this is the route
over which the procession will
pass to the cemetery, and this
procession will be made up large
ly of strangers whose eyes can
not avoid the sight presented.
What will be the estimate made
of the taste of our citizens, not
only for creating such conditions,
but as well for suffering them to
exist? l am not agitating this
matter for cleanliness for that
day only, but for all seasons of
the year. We should not put on
our good appearance for that day
only, and go in filth the remain
der OF the year. No, by no means.
Let those premises be cleaned
up and maintained clean the year
through by ceasing the dumping
OF such filth. This is the right
thing to do, and l think l ven

Now if this is true why will such

Was it a Surrender?
BY LEO.

the conduct of Senator j. B. For
aker towards the Taft crowd. 1t
is a pleasure to know that the
senator has bowed to the obvious
sentiment of Ohio Republicans.
In our article in last weeks issue
we ventured to predict that Sen
ator Foraker would make no great
fuss about things after he became
convinced that the people of Ohio
want William Howard Taft for
the presidential candidate next
year. 1t came to pass as we pre-
dicted, but came sooner than we
expected. The whole party in
Ohio is now for Taft, and thus
united we shall stand a good
chance of getting our man NOM
mated by the Republican national
convention.
Was it a compromise? We
think not. 1t was simply bowling
to the inevitable. There appeared
no need of a,primary election to
determine who is the favorite son
of Ohio at this time. Any one
travelling through the state or
who reads the county or state
newspapers could not ward off
the conclusion that the state of
Ohio, the Republican part of it,
wants the big war secretary for
president. Senator Foraker saw
it, and gave up his antagonism.
He is a man of keen sight, and
now declares that if Ohio is for
Taft, he is for him, too. That's
all right. Senator Foraker goes
with his party. Discretion is
the better part of valor.'
We hardly believe that Sena-
tor Foraker in going with his
party had his eye mainly on a
third election to the senate.
This, no doubt, would be agreea-
BILE to him, but if the people of
Ohio do not want him in the SEN
ate, and will make it known to
him, the senator will say once
more, Il want no honor which
the Republicans of Ohio do not
want me to have" When the
time comes he will again bow to
the inevitable, will step down
and out.
Why is there any doubt as to
the election of Senator Foraker
the third time to the United
States Senate? Certainly not for
the want of appreciation of his
brilliant parts. No man in that
august body has greater talents.
Ohio is proud of him in that re-
spect. What is the matter then?
It is nothing more than his fail
ure to represent the sentiment of
the Ohio Republicans.
Ohio Republicans believe in
Roosevelt and his reform notions;
but Senator Foraker has been on
the other side, antagonizing the
Administration on several occa-
sions. The Administration has
been doing much to bring rich
corporations to deal justly with
all parties in interest the square
deal. But, unfortunately, Sena-
tor Foraker, being a millionaire,
saw fit to throw his great weight
into the balance with the rich
corporations, apparently at least
forsaking the poor and oppressed.
This is the senator's grave Of
tense as seen by his fellow Re
publicans in Ohio. 1t may be
the senator's attitude has beer
misunderstood; but, nevertheless
he has lost popularity owing tt
his seeming antagonism to the
Roosevelt administration. Ant
it seems probable just now tha
Ohio, at the proper time, will
choose another man for the sen
