NATIVE SONS-AND NATlIE
SONS.
SONS.

We believe in home people
sticking together. We believe
that all things being equal Or
even nearly equal, the home
man and the home product
shonld have the preference.
The home merchant whose goods
are anywhere near the market
Drice and desired quality should
be patronized. The few extra
cents possibly paid him Is GER
tainly bread upon nearby wa
tiers to return again within a few
DAYS. The home politician IN
competition with an outsider
for an office if in anyway equal
with his competitor in character
or ability should have the un1al-
tering support of the home con-
stituenCy.
This sentiment of home loyalty
is so general however that one
finds the native son string of the
political harp twanged until it is
out of tune. A good thing may
be carried too far. A mistaken
sense of home loyalty sometimes
yleads people to support a ma
tive SON., whose recommends
ton for office lies in that partlcu
lar alone. Every community ha
men whose ambition is create
than their honor or their ability
TO foist them upon the outsld
public is dishonOrable and III
worthy. For by them the con
munity itself is judged.
We could never go so far a
this. Each having equal quall1
cations however, there can
no question whom to supper
A man must have q very co
vincing reason therefor to 81
if he would maintain the go'
opinion of his fellows, and y
be disloyal to the home candida'
Because in so doing he is disioy
not only to the candidate, b
to home itself.

The Democratic national com
mittee will organize into clubs
for this years campaign the
Southern voters who reside IN
the North. It's estimated that
there are 100000 Of these voters
in New York alone, and many
thousands more in Ohio, Indiana
and Illinois, a large proportion
of whom cast their votes indie
pendently, some time for one,
again for another, irrespective
of party. The fact that repre-
scntation in their home states Is
threatened by the passage OF the
| Crumpacker resolution IN tn
House, and it's endorsement il
the Republican platform, VII
serve to arouse party loyalty
The national committee will al
tempt to unity these away fror
home Southern Democrats, an
it is to be hoped that it will prov
to be the leaven that leaVens tn
whole lump.

As TO QUESTIONS OF FACT

J.

state journal certainly does not v
give it a billet as special pleaoer 6
for George Favrot, since there !
is not necessarily a connection y
in duty between the State House :
and the present Congressman. :
Whatever the cause, the
Truth not only seeks to make !
light of the big Wickliffe meet,
inc in Baton Rouge, composed
of the flower of it's population
but also in two labored editorials
attempts to answer Mr. WICK
life's arguments.
In the first place the Truth
says:
"The house was filled and con con!

JOKE ON PROFESSOR
UNWITTING VICTIM OF HIS OWN
ADVICE.
Pupil Faithfully Followed instructions
and the Result Was Broken Rest
for the Unfortunate Music
e. Teacher

The late Prof, Julius Eichberg,
whose violin school was at one time
one OF the most f1ourishing institu-
lions of Boston, enjoyed telling the
following joke which was fnnocently
played on him by a pupil: +,
Just before the vacation season he
once inquired Of a. boy how much he
intended to practice on his violin dur.
ing the summer. '..
oh, not very much" replied the
youngster
Not very much! How is that?"
Because I want to play and enjoy
myself. There are many other bows
where we go summers
That's very WE'LL" answered Eich.
oerg, but can you not devote one
hour a day to your violin?"
NO, SIR" was the prompt reply.
Half an hour?"
No, not even that. I have no time"
1T 1s too bad, for you will forget
everything you have learned"
Efchberg stopped a minute to think
and then said:
What time do you rise mornings
"hSh OH JOuT VaCaClCn!'
Very early, sir-between five and
six"
well, that's the best time. Put in
half an hours practice every morning
before you go down to breakfast"
The boy promised faithfully to dc
SO, and teacher and pupil parted on
the best Of terms.
A few weeks later, Eichberg was
peacefully slumbering in one Of the
cool rooms Of a fashionable summer
hotel which he and his family reached
the nj ight before. when he was most
inopportunely awakened by. the furi.

his head.

WI TO CHINESE STUDENTS

ASHBURHAM, Mass, Aug. a.
The feature of today's session at the
conference of the Eastern Alliance OF
Chinese Students here was the ad-
dress to the students by WI Ting
Fang, the Chinese Minister to tho
United States.
He urged the students upon their
return to their native land to help
the Government of that country in
every possible way. He told them
they must be patient. and he said he
believed that in time their ideas
would be accepted by the Chinese
Government. He spoke of the pres
ent great opportunities the Chinese
students have to secure an education,
and expressed confidence that when
they returned to China they would
find plenty of places to occupy.
