THE YOUNG MAN IN PUBLIC LIFE
Rv Nn;fed STATES Senator Albert / Rexeridoe

The man who stopped thinking
decades ago and who therefore be-
lieves that all questions are spurious
except those about which he was
thinking in his prime. but which
have been settled long ago, cannot
even grasp the meaning Of public
life to-day. Indeed, the latter is a
real obstacle to the solving Of our
present-day problems.

THEY CALLED
HIS BLUFF
Mouser's Threat Did Not 60
with the Leaders.
RECOGNITION DENIED
Ohio Senators are Given the
Icy Hand.
Mouser's Threat to Lead a Fight on
the Convention Floor Did Not
"Get Him Much"

1t is very evident from the fol-
lowing article which appeared in
this mornings issue OF the Ohio
Sun, that Congressman Grant Nous
er's bluff didn't work when he at
tempted to force q clause into the
resolutions of the state convention
mentioning the names of Senators
Foraker and Dick. The article fol-
lows:
There will be no mention of
United States Senators Foraker and
Dick in the resolutions OF the con-
vention as agreed upon by the reso-
lutions committee in a session last
ing until 2 o'clock in the morning.
A demand at least to mention the
senators by name, led by Congress-
man Mouser of Marion and Judge
John II. Doyle of Toledo proved
unavailing.
The question is to be disposed of
In clause copying the exact
words used in the Cuyahoga coun-
ty Republican convention two years
ago. 1t reads: I'VE congratulate the
people OF Ohio upon our represen-
tation in the senate and house of
representatives OF the United States
which maintains the states high
rank in national legislation"
Congressman Mouser at first
threatened to lead a fight on the
floor of the convention to force the
mentioning OF the names OF the
senator's. In the end he voted with
the other members of the resolutions
committee for the declaration which
stands approved in the report of the

of late he dreamed more frequently of

On another day, just a year from the
day of the eventful fishing. when sky
and sea again rivaled each other in

magnificent boat approach his shore,
whose wood was of silver and sail OF

tail was cut very short. and his long
ears dropped forward. giving him a
particularly pitiful aspect as he tried
Intellectually to defend himself against
the attacks of some thougntless chill
dren who were annoying him.
The lady, noticing the poor dog
plight. and knowing that the children
were not really unkind at heart. but
merely careless. gave them a little
talk on their duty to animals. and then
asked to whom the dog belonged. No
one knew. He was just a stray dog:
so the lady put him in her carriage
and took him home with her. But
when she reached home she encountered
an unexpected difficulty. Beauty. her
own dog. resented the introduction into
the house Of a common tramp dog. and
made such fuss that Prince was taken
around to the back door. He was then
fed and washed and given a beautiful
red ribbon TO wear. and at the same
time was christened Prince" the lady
knowing that a good name is valuable
to dog as well as to person
Prince justified the attention shown
him. and his behavior assumed a new
dignity, and he was very soon able to
reciprocate the kindness OF his bene-
factress. for. while Beauty continued
to ornament the front Of the house.
Prince faithfully guarded the rear. and

There must be big treasures there,

Yes, my son; it was rich city,"
And has no one ever been there to
dig for the treasures?"
NO. they are buried very deep, and
that was more than 1000 years ago,
almost 5000, long before the blessed
Christ came to earth.s
So little Heinrich added to his dreams
Of getting the silver bowl and the
golden cradle when he grew to be a
man, that of digging for the treasures
in the buried city
What treasure he would fndl many
a silver bowl and many a golden
cradle. Then his father no longer
would be poor, his mother pale and
worn from overwork. 1t seemed to
little Heinrich sometimes as If he
couldn't wait
Five, six years passed, and he was
just beginning to learn about the
buried city in his books at school when
his father called him one day.
My son, can not keep you in school
any longer; you will have to get to
work, to do for yourself; 1 am sorry,
but l have little money
That night in the quiet of his room.
when the rest were sleeping, little
Heinrich wept.
If only the stories that Hopping
Peter" had told him had been true no
one could have kept him from getting
the bowl and the cradle. Now he must
give UP his loved studies, give up his
ambition to dig midst the ruins of the
buried city.
Soon after he began to seek work an
opportunity came for him to clerk in a
grocery. The pay was small. but he
did not mind it so much now. after his
first disappointment. He was glad to
add his mite to the family earnings.
Little Heinrich was reasonably happy,
for he still kept his dreams.
One day a drunken miller came reel
ing into the store muttering in an un-
known tongue; the words were beautf-
full and Heinrich was much moved.
After drinking the beer Heinrich was
