WANDERING FROM THE SUB-
 JECVT

The Arizona Star a few days ago newspaper editors of the territory for their opinions regarding an instructed delegation to the Chicago convention It announces that the following reply too late to be included in the sym posium, was received from the MOrenci Leader:
 We favor an instructed delegation for Taft to the republican national convention, represented by men of strong character and influence. We believe Taft to be the peoples choice,
 To which the Star adds irrelevantly:
 The editor of the Leader is Fred , Cleveland. MT. Cleveland has recently been appointed to the position of pri- vate secretary to Governor hibbey.
 What has that got to do with it, rather than the color of MT. Cleveland s hair?
 Now, the Star need not have taken that sudden departure from the sub ject matter and wandered off into the field of political appointments and the newly established relation between MT. Cleveland and Governor Kibbey. It might have found food for thought and inquiry in the Leaders statement, or what may be inferred from the state ment, that the instructed delegates should be men of strong character and influence" Why should they be such men? IL does not require strong character blindly to obey instructions and iu requires no influence whatever.
 Why should such men as the Leader suggests be torn from their useful vo- cations at home and be sent to Chi cago on a time consuming task that even an imbecile could perrorm with satisfaction?
 Keep the men of strong character and influence at home. We need them. If it is not desirable to send imbeciles, why not dispatch trusty boy who has not reached the maximum half fare age fixed by the railroads, and save the other half? That's the point. So, why all this purposeless talk about private secretaryships and Governor Kibbey and all other matters entirely foreign 10 the question before the house?

Jealousy an AdmirabIe Trait.

Jealousy has always seemed to us one of the most admirable and attrac- tive of the traits directly bequeathed by divinity to humanity and shared with substantial equality by both The minor prophet. Pusey. correctly inter- prets the Old Testament's recognition of the attribute as one whereby God does not endure the love of His crea- lures to be transferred from Him or divided with Him; it is twofold; an
 intense love. not bearing imperfections or unfaithfulness in that which it loves and so chastening it; or not bearing the ill-dealings of those who would injure what it loves, and so de- stroying them" From this compre- hensive definition sprang the applica- tion to human affairs as voiced first by Bolingbroke When he marked the difference between jealousy and dis trust, saying Men may be jealous on Account of their Liberties, and I think they ought to be so, even when they have no immediate Distrust that the Persons who govern seek to invade them" and reiterated by Emerson in the characteristic phrase "The jeal- ousy of every class to guard itself is a testimony to the reality they have found in life In this broad wise sense no nobler trait can be found in either divinity or Humanity, and no exception can be taken to the direct declaration fOrbidding the worship of graven images, For I the Lord Thy God am jealous God,' as the best of His creatures are to this day jeal ous men and jealous women, conserv- ing in real stability the rights of oth- CTS by insisting upon their own.- George Harvey, in The North Ameri- can Revieu, for Fahruarv

arises from the peculiar and perhaps
