Odebolt Chronicle: No one pretends
to think that Mr.. Carroll is a brilliant
governor. He.is simply man pos
sessed Of fair clerical ability who was
never intended to set the world on fire
or step over the line Of mediocrity.
he has favored the, standpst wing Of
the party at the expense OF the pro-
Rressives, it is true: but what else
could have been expected Of him? He
owed his nomination to the stand pat
tiers. It has been customary to give
agovernor two terms. unless. az in
Gov. brakes case, sound reasons de-
veloped for retiring him. Gov. Car
roll thus far has done nothing which
should make his case an exception.
We believe he ia an honest man and
that the interests Of the state will not
suffer while he is in the 4. acutiye
chair There is nosreason for kicking
him out land none for replacing hin
with John Cownis. The people il
charge of the Cownie boom will do
we'll to choke il of; and meanwhile
we hope that the governor will find 4
good man for Cownie's job.

speeches throughout the country with

ideas. He did all he could. without
hopelessly involving his party. to Sc
cure substantial downward revision.
No tariff rate was raised upon his rec
ommendation He accompli shed much
mnre for tariff revision than did all
the insurgent members of bD,h houses
put together.
Mr.. Taft 70 Progressive, but he is
not an Insurgent.
That is where the President drew
the line.
He did not abandon his party as did
the insurgents and he does not now
serve notice. as did the junior senator
from Iowa in recent speech. that he
would agree to no tariff bill unless it
fully complied with his personal ideas
and wishes.
The President has the judicial mind.
the mind that weighs ali things. He
has worked with keen minds in many
~limes and has learned that his will

When the Nebraska small grain harvest
opened there was great shortage OF
