winner, but that was in the days of
the congressional caucus, where it is
probable the president could exert
more influence than he would be able
to in this time.
That President Jackson wanted Van
Buren, as his successor there is no
question. But there is little in COM
mon in the situation in that alliance
and an alliance of Roosevelt and Taft.
In the former case Jackson was drawn
by the great ability of Van Buren, to
help himself politically, while If the
administration is involved in Taft's
favor it will probably be on account
of necessity because of Taft's weak
ness as a political manager. Van
Buren, was at the head of the old AL
bany regency and his plan of action
drew the admiration of Jackson.
1t is probable, however, that Secre-
tary Taft does not expect the nomina-
ton to come his way, realizing that
he has great obstacle to overcome
in his own state, and his lack of abil-
ity to cope with such state of affairs.
The chances are that he would rather
take up some of the 100000 year
offers that Secretary Shaw has been
throwing over his shoulder, for he
says his ambitions are not political.

THIS COUNTRY ALL RIGHT!

Washington Post-The tone of pes
simism so prevalent in the press in
discussing the many new problems"
that have so suddenly arisen is
enough to cause establishment Secre-
tary Roots speech, warning the states
that unless they exercise the duties
of sovereignty the nation will exercise
it for them, has raised dismal chorus
from the soothsayers, who think they
see an end Of the American system Of
government. Secretary Shaw's de-
claration that som common sense
should be exercised in dealing with
the problems arising from prosperity
has brought forth demand from the
thoughtless that prosperity itself
should be brought to a halt. The Presi-
dents long distance suggestion that
incomes and inheritances should be
taxed bring a wall from various
sources, which could not be much
louder if congress were actually en-
gagged in passing an income tax bill
in defiance Of the supreme court, If
not the constitution In a dozen other
directions there is discordant cry
that the times are out of joint. Some
newspapers ctHSCC W DSllcNC Ludl
crime is more prevalent than ever:
others that grating has honeycombed
the whole business and political struc-
ture; others thta the nation Is plung-
ing headlong to destruction because
Of the abuse Of marriage and divorce
laws.
Why not cheer up little Things
are not altogether to the bad. The
states Of the Union are still organized
and ably to stand up for their rights
The federal government has not stolen
or otherwise usurped any of the pow
ers reserved to the states and the peo-
pie, however ardently such a course
may be urged, and there is no pros
pect that the balance between the
states and the government will be
disturbed. The country is staggering
along fairly we'll under the burden Of
prosperity. There are hardships, of
course, in trying to cope with exces-
sive crops and unusual production, but
the people who are struggling with
this problem are well fed, well clothed
and we'll housed. There is no hard.
ship of hunger, at any rate.
If the readers Of newspapers think
that crime is on the increase, let them
remember that the population of the
United States is twice that of Great
Britain; that happenings in this coun-
try, including crimes, are far more
widely published than in any other
country, and that stories of crime
deal with the abnormal and divergent

The Cars Were New to Her.


Outside cold, nasty mist was fall
ing. The depot was crowded with peo-
pie from nearby towns going home
after their annual holiday shopping,
waiting for passenger train No. 3 to
arrive Nearly all had obtained their
tickets. with the exception of a few
men who were hanging close to the
window, blocking the passage COM
pletely. The ticket agent was busy
answering questions and making
change, when peculiarly shrill, high
pitched voice smote upon his ear,
obviously coming from the ladies' side
of the passage
Say mister. what time does the
train go to Mt. Ayr?"
She was good old motherly wom-
an, evidently intensely interested about
something or other Everyone in the
waiting room heard her. and all con-
versation ceased.

out there and this is Mars first born
and of course mothers got to be there

The ticket agent silently handed out
the ticket and made the change, while
the men moved slowly over to the
window and gazed softly at the inter.
esting steel rails.
