TAFT's cANDoR.

The Minneapolis Journal Is struck
with the remarkable candor of Pres
ident Taft in his speeches on the swing
around the circle, and says:
President Taft is not carrying across
the continent with him bag OF tricks.
In every speech that he makes he is
exposing his full hand. He keeps
nothing back from the people. He ar
CUES before them without reserve. AS
striking as the concrete grasp Of diff
cult questions which he displays, is the
entire candor, the absolute franl1ness
on the man in his discussions
The president Is talking to the peo-
pie on the issues that confront us as
he would TO a court of appeals in q law
case
Politicians, not merely OF a low order
of intelligence" but Of a high order,
never have and never will understand
this sort of man or this sort Of mans
success. His honest method spells
foolishness to them,
And even when the method proves
It's virtue by the reward OF success
with the people. the politicians refuse
to credit their senses, and stubbornly
ascrfbea to accident careers and
achievements such as no mere polite
ian ever attains.
David B. Hill was persuaded that
Grover Cleveland was a madman, and
when the people responded to Cleve-
land he considered that they were also
mad. About the only public man who
discerned in the young Roosevelt the
promise of great future was Cleve-
land himself
Misapprehension Of man like Taft
is not only moral misapprehension,
but also an intellectual one. The sim
plicity, nay the naivete of a man like
Taft, as they conceive him, is asso-
ciated with power of mind such as
lies without their comprehension.
AS Taft withholds nothing never at
tempts to deceive, so his intellect con-
cerned for truth. is capable Of arriv4
ing at right conclusions in great and
intricate questions.

INFANTlLE PARALYSIS.

There are many bereaved hearts in
Fargo as a result of the deaths of
children from infantile paralysis. There
is no disposition on the part of The
Forum to create panic or to unneces-
sarily alarm any parent in Fargo-but
there IS no concealing the fact that
the greatest uneasiness is felt. The
epidemic of infantile paralysis-or
whatever the disease really isis gem
eral in this city as 1t is everywhere to
the east and south. Scarcely a city of
any size in the entire eastern half of
the United States has escaped.
Most physicians frankly admit they
are at sea as to both the cause of the
disease and the proper treatment.
Some insist that 1t is spinal meningitis,
possibly with slight complications
others that # is a peculiar stomach
trouble, but no physician appears to
have made a satisfactory diagnosis of
any one case under his observation.
The mysterious nature Of the dis
ease-its insidious fatality-is it's most
terrifying feature.
Another unusual element Of the cpl
demic is the fact that so many of it's
victims are apparently the strongest
and most vigorous specimens Of ctsld
hood in the city. They are attacked
and die suddenly while their playmates
who seem much more likely to con-
tract all the ills to which the flesh is
heir-escape entirely.
There is general impression that
with the coming frosts and cooler wea-
Their the disease will disappear. That
seems to have been the rule in many
other cities in former years. Fargo
parents viii pray for the blasts of old
Boreas to come quickly and extermi-
nate the fatal germs that bring death
TO their loved ones-and sorrow and
sadness to so many homes.

HOLDING THE GRAIN.

The following comment from The
Grafton Record is typical of many 9TH
err expressions in the papers Of the
state
Whether they are acting on the ad
vice OF ]. ]. Hill or the society OF
equity we are unable to say, but 1t is
evident that the farmers Of this sec
ton of North Dakota are not rushing
their wheat to market as they have in
former years. The reports of a bumper
crop which were sent out by grain es-
timators, the excellent reports of the
government crop statisticians and the
early rush Of grain from the fields In
Minnesota, Iowa and South Dakota, all
tended to pound down the price OF
wheat to a point that caused dissatis-
faction to the producer, and now that
the farmers are putting their wheat
into the home granaries instead Of
hauling 1t to local elevators, there Is
a decided Strengthening Of the market.
When the farmers of the northwest
realize that they can regulate the sup
ply of grain to a very large extent,
they may expect the demand to keep
prices at a point that win be profitable.

position. All the deeper is his appre-

hostility on the part of, the clergymen
to certain forms Of social amusement
seems to have its ground in ignorance

from families not accomplished in So

early life and its democratic exper-
fence may be advantages, But should
not social experience be added? we

PARTITION OF CALIFORNIA.

The golden state is undergoing con
vulsions which may yet result in, ter
ritorial division. Between the rival
sections of California there is war to
the knife.
For years past the feeling of Bit
terness has been almost feudal in char
acter-and today by virtue OF this un :
fortunate crossing Of swords within the
state lines northern and southern Cali
fornia are already as separate and
distinct as il the partition had actually
been accomplished.
The difficulty is in the main geo
graphical. California is more than 700
miles in length. Within the same de-
grees of latitude on the eastern side
Of the continent not less than six states
are included.
If California ran from east to west
there would perhaps be no trouble
whatever-climatic conditions would be
uniform. 81
But the state extends from north to
south. At the lower end there is per-
petual summer-at the upper end frost
and snow lay heavy tribute upon the
countryside during the winter season.
The climates are different--the soils
are different-the products are differ
emit.
Hence there is little in common be-
tween thetwo opposite extremes OF the
state of California.
Just at present the rival factions are
engaged in the most ferocious OF bat
ties and the outcome is awaited with
intense interest.
Internal dissensions are not conduc-
i've to domestic growth and prosperity
and the sooner the partition is made
the better it win be for both parties
to this unfortunate quarrel.
