The corruptlng power Of politics
is wonderful. We are at times sur
prised that the vice and the weak
ness of the entire people seems to be
mirrored in the field OF politics, to
be concentrated in the channels worn
by the offlceseeker, the place hunter.
Here evasion, compromise with prin-
ciple, winking at evil and duplicity
Of the grossest sort take unbridled
license and work their selfish ends
In the darkness sought and created
by the political juntas. The people
are directly responsible. They alone
can correct this evil. They are the
fountain from which the filth OF
politics flows. The politicians are
of the people. So long as the moral
people follow "hands off" policy,
the evil will continue to go scott free.
The people are responsible for the
corruptnig Influence OF politics. The
so-called moral people are more re-
sponsible than the immoral for cor
ruption in the body polite, Here is
the weak link,--Farm and Ranch.

INSURANCE AGAINST BRYAN.

All of Hughes horses and all of
Hughes men can't keep the New York
er from betting again on the national
election. A business man (for it's
strictly business) wanted to be in
sured against the possibility of Bry-
ans being elected. So he went to
Lloyd's, the people who will insure you
on anything, even to your wife's hav-
ing twins. They decided that it was
to 1 against Bryan. And they are
keen observers and reputable bust
ness men. The demand was so great
that the odds Immediately rose to al
most to 1.
No one will deny that this is an
original way of evading the New York
law against betting of any descrip-
ton. 1t will be interesting to see the
results in the race track betting. The
policy, or P. P. I. as it is called, will
not be prosecuted for the contract is
made in London. So far no insurance
has been issued against the election of
Taft nor has any been applied for.
That is rather suggestive.

hang, but opinion seems divided as
to it's being a 'hoodoo day" and a

which was lucky for their descen.
dants; the British surrendered at
Yorktown on a Friday-October 10,
1881, which was unlucky for the Brit
ish. Columbus set out in the Pinta,
the Nina and Santa Maria on his voy-
age on a memorable Friday-August
l, 1892 and it was on a Friday also
that he got his first glimpse of land,
October IL, 1892, an event which was
more fortunate for us than for him, it
proved. Columbus also landed on his
second voyage on a Friday, November
%, 1893 and on Friday, January IS,
1494, he discovered the coast of North
America. George Washington was
born on a Friday, a fact to which
Bryan and Kern. nominated on that
day, will be able to point with pride. "
None of them could have helped it.
Friday is the luckiest day in the
week" declared an astrologer who ex.
planned his theory by saying The day
is ruled by Venus" Many others,
who were superstitious, shook their
heads.

THE RETURNING PROSPERITY.

Not long ago the Nation remark
ed that the acute watchers in the ma
tional election would not busy them
selves without compiling problematic
electoral votes. but would devote
themselves to the study of the finan-
cial and industrial situation. 1t also
intimated that in event of return to
work of many men and of good crops
there would be q splendid republican
victory. Otherwise the contest would
be very close.
There can be no general prosperity
in this country without good crops
and good prices for the same. Hence
it is specially gratifying to quote that
the Tribune of New York calculates
that the farm products in 1908 will
reach the value of $4,000, 100000 This
will eclipse that of 1900, which was
SIS, T64, 100000. Big crops have al
ways meant good times. and they will
mean the same this year."

DAVID JAYNE HILL.

At last the humble and meek has
been exalted. We wonder if every dip
lomat will not wish himself protested
or at least kicked down the back steps
of the German foreign office before
he takes his place as ambassador to
the court of the German empire. At
might be bribed to run over him in an
automobile as a preliminary step to
his acceptance. But they merely pro-
tested Hill because he was not a mil

DON'T BELIEVE 1T!

When you hear a rich man saying that
his money is care.
That hid rather be a pauper than a
multimillionaire.
Don't believe what he is stating,
He is just prevaricating
And does not deserve the pity he de-
mands
You would see him darkly scrowling
And could hear him sadly bowling,
If he had to earn his living with his
hands. Chicago Record Herald
