The world encircling fleet is home.
With pomp and ceremonies after a
IA months trip the sailors are well
coined to their native land by Presi-
dent Roosevelt and admiring thou
sands of their fellow citizens. And 1t
is indeed coincidence that the safe
arrival home should have occurred on
the birthday of "The Father of His
Country" Nothing like the tour of
this fleet had ever occurred before.
Sixteen of the largest battleships in
the world entirely circle the globe
and return home unscathed. We'll

they touched the power and greatness
of this country was shown to the en-
tire world. Great as has been con-
sidered the feat of going around the
world of this fleet, and great as the
sight of it has been to show our wealth,
might and power il seems to US that
the greatest glory that was reflected
upon this nation by the trip is that of
the thousands of men on board the
different ships not one word was heard
of any action on the part of single
one that did not rebound to the credit
of his country. True citizens of a
great country, they have truly shown
our greatness to the world by their
conduct and their works America is
justly proud of the men who repre-
sented her in foreign waters, and
Hillsboro and Highland county are
proud to have had representatives on
board the vessels.

Twin Necessities.

The reader of a newspaper win
readily agree, that it Is necessary for
a merchant, with any pretention to
progresslveness, to advertise. Yet
this would not be true If it were not
equally true that it Is necessary for
the reader of the newspaper, if he or
she have any pretentlons to progress
siveness, to read and answer the ads
These are twin facts, twin necessi-
ties. Whatever is of enough impor-
tance for the merchants to pay for
the privilege of saying is of too much
importance for the reader to over.
look. And just as advertising is the
way of the progressive store, so ia
the reading of advertising the way
of the progressive person. Measure
your progressiveness by this standard
and you will not 60 far wrong.

REPUBLICAN NOMINATE FULL
TICKET.
TICKET.

The Republican party of Wor-
cester County has evidently
tired of being run by mug
wumps and so-called Independ-
ents, and on Wednesday last re-
nounced the policy which has
almost lost it its identity. A full
ticket was nominated and none
but regular Republicans were
placed upon it. The MESSENGER
announced several weeks ago
that prominent Republicans in
the county had decided upon
this policy. The ticket is COM
posed of as good material as the
Republican party of Worcester
can well put up. BY the resolu-
tions of the convention they
stand for unrestricted negro
suffrage, and they will no doubt
poll the negro vote.
The Republican nominations
furnish no inducement for per-
sons inclined toward the Demo-
cratic party to vote for a single
Republican nominee. Man for
man the preference should be
for the Democrat.
Several of the Republican
nominees have been before the
people on more than one &C.
casion and they have gone down
to overwhelming defeat. There
is no more reason for a vote to
be cast for them now than when
they ran before. They have
not changed and the result will
be the same.

CHRONIC FAULT FINDERS.

Fault finding is one of the
easiest jobs mortal man can ac-
complish. All men are not
given to it, yet some have the
habit to a marked degree. The
chronic fault finder is a public
nuisance, but often he does not
know it. He is not noted for
his upright walk in life. but he
is so wrapped up in his self
righteousness that he does not
think any wrong could possibly
emanate from him. He would
have the public believe that
every citizen who is an Office
holder is q rascal whose time
is devoted to extracting hard
earned dollars from the pockets
Of the people and placing them
in his own pocket. He seems
to lose sight of the fact that in
variably such officials have the
reputation Of being honorable,
honest, business men, whose
credit Is good and whose char
acter stands unimpeached.
