The Dreamer and the Doer.

United States Senator Albert J.
Beveridge sized William Jennings
Bryan up about right in his splendid
speech at Youngstown. O.. when he
pointed out that the Nebraskan is a
political dreamer and not a political
doer
Let no man denounce Mr.. Bryan. 8
said Senator Beveridge. Such men
are necessary to human progress. Al
ways such men have been the voice
OF protest, but never the statesman
OF a cause Always they have been
the urgers of reform. but never the
doors of the work.
Mr.. Bryan is an Aaron. but not a
Moses; n Henry. but not a Washing
ton; a Wendell Phillips. but not an
Abraham Lincoln. He is the storm
OF unrest which clears the atmos-
phere, but not the trade winds that
carry to port the freighted ships OF !,
peoples hope.
-Four years ago. in his own home,
paying tribute to his character and
mind. called him a dreamer who
beholds happy visions of the barren
field bending with grain; hut his IS
not the plowman's hand, the sewers
craft or the cleaners husbandry. The
poets dream of an undiscovered
Utopia has cheered us all;but the Pill
grims, actually landing on Plymouth
Rock, planted the real tree of liberty,
beneath whose real shade we rest and
by whose real fruits We live"
For the last fifteen years Mr..
Bryan has been dreaming wierd and
strange political dreams. No rude
awakening. however, seems to dis
courage him. for he goes ahead and
dreams more fantastic things. dreams

woodpeckers Destroy Poles.

Birds are destroying the telegraph
and telephone poles in the south and
southwest, particularly in Texas, AT
izona and California. In some places
fifty per cent of all the poles along
the right-of-way have been riddled by
these innocent offenders, which be-
long to the woodpecker family.
One of the Western Union officials,
who has recently returned from an
inspection drought the West, report.
ed having seen twenty-five telephone
poles with two or three hundred
holes drilled clear through them.
Some of the holes were three or four
inches in diameter.
An officer of the Illinois Central
Railroad counted the white cedal
telephone poles along the right-of-
way near Covington. Tenn, which
had been affected by woodpeckers.
and found that out OF 26S poles, 10,
or II per cent, had been bored.
In some cases destruction of the
pole takes only a few months and
the weakened condition makes 1t
dangerous for a line man to climb
the stick.
The real object of the birds in
The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1908-09-08
riillng the holes is uncertain.

drilling the holes is uncertain. One
telephone man said that the hum
ming OF the wires was mistaken by
the birds for insects excavating be-
meath the surface of the wood, and
that they drilled the holes in quest
of these Imaginary insects. 1t is
very probable however, that the
holes are excavated for an entirely
different purpose, The woodpeckef
is a provident bird. At the proper
season 1t stores up supply of
acorns and other foods for future
consumption. In the summer these
holes are often found stored with
acorns.
Many methods for preventing this
damage have been suggested, but
probably the most successful is pres
ervation with creosote. A line Of
creosoted poles. opposite the one near
Covington, was examined, and not a
single hole was found. When 1t Is
considered that creosote will not
only prevent the damage caused by
the woodpecker, but also protect the
pole indefinitely against both insects
and decay, its great value as a pre-
servaive is apparent.
The Forest Service has spent con-
siderable time in developing a cheap
yet efficient method for the treat
ment of telephone and telegraph

swisher Loyal and True.

Judge Nathan COTS decision not
to run for governor is regarded final
and is accepted as such as he intends
it to be. judging from the utterances
he has made on the subject.
This places a complete quietus on
that feature of the political situation
in this state, and the latter reverts
to the original conditions, except that
Charles W. Swisher has shown beyond
possible doubt that same self-sacri-
ficing spirit in the interest OF the Re.
publican party. The nominee of the
party as he is, there is no one who
can justly say that he did not show
an admirable degree OF self-sacriflce,
when 1t was urged by the opposition
that they only were willing for sucn
sacrifice on their part.
There is no man in the state, who
has followed the course OF Swisher
who is not thoroughly convinced OF
his Republicanism, none who does not
know that he has repeatedly sacrificed
self-interest in behalf OF the party and
at a time, when the climax between
the party and the opposition came,
he did not falter, although he realized
that to recede from his position and
his rights as the nominee meant the
blasting OF his ambitions and the
futility OF years earnest campaign.
But, for the sake OF his party, he
agreed to surrender, with the under
standing that the most distinguished
citizen OF the state should lead the
Republican hosts to victory.
1t is said that the opposition, with
whom he entered into an agreement,
made the assurance that Judge Golf
would accept the nomination in the
event both Swisher and Scherr with
darw, and Charley Swisher recog.
nized the fact that Judge Goff would
make governor loyal and true to
the Republican party and the peo-
pie and that he would lend no hand
to the furtherance of the cause OF
Democracy. He like all other West
Virginians loves Judge Con, and,
hence he had no special objection to
Withdrawing from the race, If oppor-
tunity afforded for Judge Cor to be
governor. In real truth, there is
scarcely citizen in West Virginia,
Republican or Democrat, who would
not feel the same way about 1t, and
none who would not give way to the
states most distinguished and abIesF
jurist and rejoice over the fact that
he had been chosen governor of the
state.
Charles W. Swisher did his part
we'll, he did far more than his duty,
more than the people expected or
required Of him. He showed that
his heart is in the right place AMI
that he is man enough to cast aside
once more in his career. as he has
ever done. personal interest in behalf
of his party and state. He has fully
met the main opposition to him. He
has shown that he is not selfish
enough to stand, as they charge him,
stumbling block to his party. All
admire him for this and those who
have all along pinned their faith to
him admire him doubly. He has
done that which must and does COM
mand the respect of all. and this one
act on his part will line up the party
for him. 1t is the prediction of the
Telegram that 1t means he will now

Mrs. Walton stated to the commits

father and that it has been taken out
of the jurisdiction OF the court. Of
ficers were unable to locate Walton

DESERVING Ankeny.

The Tacoma Ledger publishes a
telegram from Chicago that A. j.
Slater has deserted Senator Ankeny
and accepted minor clerkship with
the Taft headquarters in the hope of
landing position in one of the de-
partments in the event of Taft's cleo
ton. The Ledger correspondent
goes on to say that Slater has taken
this course on account of the certain
defeat of Ankeny for reelection.
Slater may see defeat for Ankeny,
but that is not the reason he has &C
cepted job as typewriter for the
Taft headquarters. He needs a job
and may as well take it with the Taft
forces as with any one. He is a fore
flusher ana will accept committee
clerkship in the end If he can get

Stevenson, claiming that some one
has repudiated pledge is in itself
marvellous example of cool effront-
been one long line of broken pledges
and they have thrived on them. Their
present proteges, Piles and 9nkeny,

too thoroughly to expect serious con-
sideration by the public of their

Jones and King County.

What has Senator Ankeny ever
done for Seattle or Puget sound in
comparison with the congressional
services rendered by Congressman
Jones during the last ten years? On
the other hand, did Ankeny not
achieve a notable deed of nothing
ness when in a state of senatorial
torpor he allowed the A.-Y.-P. expo
sition bill, during the absence of SEN
ator Piles, to pass off the calendar
without raising his voice?
Is this the kind of unintelligent
friendship the Seattle Times would
return to the senate on behalf of
King County? The state knows the
Seattle Times and its kinky-haired
colonel too we'll. 1t also knows SEN
ator Anheny and his methods. The
material reason for the Seattle Times
supporting Senator Ankeny as a
friend" of King county is too obvi-
ous.-Lincoln County Times.

it is an uphill fight, for a great ma
jority of the voters there are against
Ankeny, on his record. and the rest
of the state is looking on King eoun-
ty with a feeling akin to pity.-El-
