THE republicans are casting about
for a successor to Congressman e. A.
Morse, of Amigo, who has held that
honorable position for four years.
For good many years, the republi-
cans have looked upon the office of
congressman as a sort of position
with which TO honor certain ones in
their party, not for any exceptional
ability which they possessed, but just
TO distribute the honor. In the case
of Mr.. Morse, the year he was elected,
there was no one who seemed to want
the Office but himself and he was able
to receive the nomination at the
primaries and to win out in the gen.
eral election which followed. He has
scarcely been heard of since he took
his seat. There is no reason why the
Tenth district should not be repre-
sented by man who would be a
credit to it; man of ability who
would command the respect of the
nation, not on account of his money,
but on account of his ability to do
things. The republican party has such
men within its ranks and so has the
democratic party. The mere matter
of passing the office around, just TO
honor this or that man, is all wrong.

WANTED MORE COMMON FARE
Daily Meals of Oysters Had Begun TO
Pail on Palate Of Tramp
Printer.

An Oregon editor once got big
advertisement from place which sold
nothing but oysters. The place had
just opened, and while the proprietor
was willing to advertise he didn't have
the cash to spend; so the newspaper
man took a card which entitled him to
ten dollars worth of oysters. "A few
days later a tramp printer strolled
into the Gazette office and wanted q
Job" relates the editor Il lad moth
ing to offer him. but told the man he
might sleep back in the composing
room. and as he had no money to bur
food. I gave him the meal ticket on
the oyster parlor. / didn't hear from
him again for more than q week One
day he came into the once looking a
bit drawn and worn. I don't want
TO Reem dissatisfied with what you've
done for me. Mr.. Carter be said. and
I'm willing to admit that the luscious
bivalve is wonderfully fine bit of
food; but for heavens sake, can't you
get an ad. from ham and egg EN-
porium?"

EVER since October 1907, the date
when the republican panic struck the
country, (which by the way, was
brought on by republican misrule)
there has been miserable imploring
wall going up'fiom every republican
office holder in every city, town and
hamlet in the United States amount
ing to this: so, good times come
back, do not foresake us now in the
height of our iniquity. If thou dost
not come back soon, the good people
of the land, the democrats, will take
courage and Smite us hip and thigh.
o, dear old good times, come back.
You are our only hope to maintain a
robber tariff and thereby levy tribute
upon the people of the land" The
cry is also being taken up by tariff
protected barons and subsidized re-
publican press even to the small
dailies and weeklies. At present
there seems to be greater fear among
the faithful that good times are not
going to materialize again during re-
publican rule Tor misrule would be
the better world and there is wall
ing and crashing of teeth that is
pitiable.
Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1909-05-25

If anything were needed TO show
the people of the United States that
the maintenance of high tariff has
become nothing more or less than a
scheme for enriching few great pro-
ducers at the expense of many con-
sumers, the present debates in the
Senate are making tins clear to all
who will read. And while the men
who have grown rich because of high
duties are sparing neither time nor
money in their efforts to have those
duties retained, the people whose
sole interest it is to buy what they
need as cheaply as possible are doing
nothing. If these conditions remain
unchanged, who can doubt how the
question will be settled? But even if
small fraction Of the men and
women who beer the burden of high
duties would unite in one organiza-
ton, the power would not be all on
one side.

Poetry and Patriotism.

Zalris Topelius, 1.-The most popular
poet Finland has ever known" was a
lover of his native land above all else.
Once, says Paul Waineman In "A
Summer Tour in Finland" he wrote
as follows to a little Finnish 10y who
was at the time residing in England
for his schooling:
You are In a great and rich coun-
try. but neve. forget that you are only
an exile.
"If Queen Victoria herself should
write and offer you a post in her king
dom, remember that you must answer,
I cannot, because l have a cottage
waiting for me when | am grown
up. 1t has roof higher than the
loftiest hall in Windsor Castle. That
roof is the blue sky of my own land "
