FROM SHAMOklN DISPATCH

McHENRY AS A SPEAKER.

The voters of this Congressional
District have long been saying that
what was needed at Washington was
preventative who could stand up in
congress and talk ,-one who would be
able, in the proper way, to present the
needs OF this district and who would,
Furthermore, be able to take part in
tbs debates of the House. The voters
have read with much interest news
paper accounts of the speeches made
by Hon. John G.. MoHenry both in
congress and at important gatherings
of bankers, grangers, etc. ,and all have
declared that in every published ad-
dress Mr.. McHeurv had touched on
his subjects in a most interesting and
straightforward manner, not mincing
words nor speaking i'll uncertain tones
but rather declaring most plainly
where he stood and still stands on the
live issues of the day. While not al
ways agreeing with the principles ad-
vocated by Mr.. McHenry the majority
of the voters have recognized the fact
that he is an able man, one fit to rep
resent this district in congress in the
manner that so important a district
deserves.
But with all this knowledge of the
man through the columns of the press
the voters have been anxious to hear
him themselves and to learn Of his
ability. His enemies have declared
that he could not talk in public and
that he had never made speech. de.
spite the fact that the records show
most plainly that he did speak both in
committee meetings and on the floor
of the House, in many instances his
remarks being commented upon editor

THE TRUE CHRISTIAN SPIRIT.
As Ekempiified by William Howard
Taft and Bishop Brent.

! art and blshoP BRENT
Another American has shown the
same noble spirit that moved William
III. Taft to request President Roose-
welt to withhold his appointment as
Justice of the United States supreme
court that would have brought him
back from his arduous work in the
Philippines to the lighter labors and
the more congenial scenes of his ma
tive land.
Missionary Bishop Brent of the Epis-
copal church in the Philippines, offered
the bishopric of Washington, with its
social advantages and agreeable sur
roundings and it's opportunities for in
tercourse with many of the ablest men
of this and other countries, preferred
his life of self sacrifice in the faroff
oriental islands and declined to leave
his work among the Filiplnos for a
mansion in the capital of the United
States.
In the motives that actuated Mr..
Taft and that led Bishop Brent to re-
fuse to desert the Filipinos there is no
essential difference.
1T mas always been my dream to
be In the supreme court" said Mr..
Taft in reply to President Roosevelt
when Mr.. Taft had come to Washing
ton to state the case of the Philippines
to committee of congress, "but if
you should offer me n justiceship now,
and if ut the same time congress
should deprive me of my entire salary
as governor, l should go straight back
to the Philippines nevertheless for
those people expect me back and be-
lleve will not desert them"

DR.. Romme, a well known medical
authority, asks in a French journal
whether man can i've on fruits alone

Of fresh grapes. one pound Of dry figs,
one-half pound of almonds and one
half pound of oranges.
The menu can easily be varied, Ba-
nanas, Strawberries, walnuts, chest
nuts and hazelnuts are among the
most nutritious fruits. while currants,
cherries, plums, peaches, apricots and
pears are also valuable.
DR.. Romme does not think it advisa-
BILE TO live entirely on fruit, but

period of ten or fifteen days as mar

Explanatory, Not Explanatory.
Hartford Courant.l

Judge Taft is not an explanatory
man, but an explanatory man. He is
not denunciatory, but analytic. His
mind does not ring, but it thinks. His
nature is not pugnaciouS, but con-
ciliatory. His attitude is not that of
an opponent, but that of an intelligent
and candid friend. His instinct is to
deal fairly and justly by all men, no
matter what they think or say about
him-to abhor the sin, but to deal
kindly with the sinner. He does not
play upon public emotions-he does
not know how-but he both knows
how and has the courage to enlighten
the public sense. He is a serene, in,
structed. experienced and self reliant
