connection whatever with the real public questions in

This from the Winthrop News contains mighty good
sermon for us all: According to the very best nforma
ton obtanable pass this way but once and when we
step into valley of the shadow, all our earthy oeon
ings will be left behind. Not or sheep nor an acre
of land nor dollar money will into the grave With
us Why then, should through life in mad hight
for gold brushing the better things aside when at last
we must be unoaded the tomb? Would it not be better
to smile little and do good deeds go along?
Would it not be better put flower in the hand OF some
hearted being struggling along the road OF fe
than to cinch an almighty dollar until cold death has
forced reinquish it.

WHITES CONCLUSIONS ABOUT TAFT.
William Allen Whites character sketch of Taft in the
Nav American Magazine u.s. first of ALL good reading 1t is
the great Kansas journalist and at his BEST
Probably it is the real picture of the Secretary OF
War that has been printed.
The story of Taft, as Mr.. White tells it, is the most
interesting part artcle but of that is too
long to repeat here. Mr. Whites conclusions
and they of great lmportance-may De summed up Ill
the following paragraphs:
ssWbat kind of president all things considered, will
he make? Assuming the facts hereinbefore set down
are correct obvious that first of all we may expect
president who will work hardfor he has but two meals
dav and tolls without resting from ten until six every days
then we may expect that he will work hard with kind,
affacnp spirit; then he will work hard unselhshy and
without much initiative. For he has rarely gone from
heotsn Maths though shown that he alone
Tho great things he has in this world have been at
the desk He is mo orator Brutus is.' He will say
little and do much.
ssThe times demand not man bearing promises of
new things but who can finish the things begun
Such man is Taft newer of wood, who has no ambi
ton to his with measure, but VINO, with
steady hand and always kind and mind always
generously just, clean off the desk
.sRoosevelt knows that the desk is cluttered up He
knows that it may six eight years merely to get
down to the mahogany under things now pending But
the American people know that some way this must De
done before nation go further And hence in the
Mississippi valley least there belief that the man
who can make the Hepburn railroad law much part
of our common life the postal regulations, who can
grind the rough edges off the Sherman law through the
courts who finish the CANAL and deal with Cuba kind
w. honestly and firmly, who can lead the brown men OF
the islands further into the light h this big hard
Zig; fair minded unsslfisk man Taft He
