THE fierce conflict OF the Republican
factions Of Illinois over the nonlina-
tons for United States Senator and
Governor brought out nearly a full Re-
publican vote at the primaries. Had
Hopkins been without \ strong COM
pstitor. the hostility to him az q trad.
ing politician was enough to bring out
a large vote. On the other hand, there
were no such conflicts in the Demo-
cratic party Of Illinois, and hence its
comparatively small vote at the pri.
mary election. But the Taft organs
eagerly seizes upon this disparity az an
evidencs Of political tendencies. They
will be wiser next November.

feel abont being elevated BY the
Presidents commission. and we
regret 70 say that their answers
are fiippant, rude, and even Of an
offensive character. They do not
seem eager TO be elevated. The
editor of Country Life in america
could tell them how TO lay out a
hundred-acre place on the sea
side. or how TO arrange ten
thousand-acre deer park in the
mountains. and no other person
Is so well qualified as be to tell
You how you can spend fifteen
thousand dollars 10 making q
farm house look artistic. Aud
yet these benighted agricultural
lists do not seem delighted at the
prospect OF having their homes
made happy. their society made
cultivated and the sanitary con-
ditiou of their barns improved
through the attentions of a Fed

Protection does not make good
wages. Our better wages are
due to the greater intelligence
and skill of our workmen, to the
greater hope which free institu-

organizations which have now
been formed among the wage
