THE AsINlNE FRED GRANT.

Frederick Dent Grant, general in
the fact that he is the son of a great
father, has been talking again. The
ass that disguised itself in the lions
skin might have escaped detection had
it not brayed and wiggled it's long
ears at just the wrong time. Fred
Grant might reflect credit upon his dis
tinguished ancestry if he could only
refrain from braying. AS it is he
makes a Jerusalem pony of himself
on every conceivable occasion. The
other day Fred Grant, by virtue of the
fact that he is a general in the regu-
lar army, attended a banquet. He
took occasion to deplore the fact that
President Roosevelt saw fit to hold a
consultation with Mayor Schmitz of
San Francisco over a question so inn
portant that Fred Grants mind could
not grasp it's fundamentals. And then
he sneeder at The indicted mayor"
and referring to the consultation de-
clared with great fervor that "such
thing could not have happened at the
White House during the years be-
tween 1869 and 1876.
Frederick Dent Grant never dis
played his asininty to greater degree
than when he made that remark and
dragged the name of his distinguished
father into the discussion. To the
glory of the American commonwealth
he it said that the happenings during
the Grant administrations have never
been repeated During the eight
years that Ulysses Simpson Grant &C.
cupied the presidential chair, Wash
ington was the seat of saturnalia of
graft and a riot of thievery and job
berry. 1t was during the Grant admin
istratiOn that the great whisky ring
fraud was perpetrated upon the peo-
lple. 1t was during the Grant admin
istration that secretary of war, Will
| liam Belknap, was detected in perpe-
ltrating gigantic frauds upon the peo-
pie and literally forced into oblivion
through the pressure of public opin-
ion. 1t was during the Grant admins
tration that the credit mobelier frauds
were perpetrated and hundreds of
millions stolen from the public and
the public treasury. If every charge
of graft and corruption made against
Eugene SchmitZ were true, the whole
world not be drop in the bucket
compared to the graft and the corrup-
ton that reigned in Washington dur
ing the eight years that Frederick
Dent Grants father was president of
the United States.
In view of these historical facts it
ill becomes the man whose only claim
upon fame is that he is the son of his
father, to draw any invidious COMPARE
sons between things as they now exist
in the white house and things as they
existed in the early 7O's. And above
con PARSONS between conditions as
they are said to exist in San Francis
co under Mayor Schmitz and cOndi-
tons that were known to exist in
| NNdSiUUSt IItSluCuI
No enc charges President Grant
with having personally profited by this
riot of corruption. And Is it not
possible that Eugene Schmitz may be
equally innocent? At any rate it looks
almighty bad for the son of Ulysses
Simpson Grant to be passing judg-
ment upon Eugene Schmitz before the
evidence is in.
We hold Ulysses Simpson Grant in
much higher esteem when we can
forget that he was the father of
Frederick Dent Grant.

If man is a true trades unionist
his acts will show it better than his
words can tell it.
Gosh, what if our wives should
strike for the eight-hour working
day!
Every time a union man buys a non
union article he violates his union
obligation No getting away from
that fact
Your grandfathers worked fifteen
and eighteen hours a day." says the
opponent of the shorter work day.
Correct, and most of our grandfathers
are dead, too.
The genuine union man is always
ready to give a reason for his union
ism.
The non union man is a carbuncle
on the neck of industrial progress.
Union talk that never comes till
it floats out on the top of tank full
of booze isn't worth listening to.

Some men are thinkers. The
vast majority are not, but allow oth-
ers to perform this most important
function for them This statement is
eminently true when 1t comes to the
matter of buying life insurance, a
transaction that is really one OF the
most important in a business way,
with which any man has to deal
There are in business in the United
States today something like 100 legal
reserve life insurance companies.
Some of these are better than 9TH
ers and of course you know there Is
ONE best There is always one best
in practically everything. The best
one is the one that has the longest.
cleanest record for square, upright
dealing with every policy holder or
member, and the one that guarantees
and has always guaranteed the most
insurance-and lives up to its guar
antees-at the least cost. The history
of the Mutual Benefit proves 1t to be
the Best company, and a careful in
vestigation of it's record will convince
you Of the fact. Don't. depend on
somebody else. There Is no mystery
about the problem. Don't let me or
anybody else do your life insurance
thinking. Do it yourself. Look Be-
fore You Leap.
