dorsed by Washington, and preserved

Gates of the doctrine are given power

Governor Forts public avowal of be-

is uttered by a man of the prominence
of the governor of New Jersey, in the
presence of company of citizens
such as would meet at the Union
League club to celebrate Washington's
birthday anniversary. without rebuke
from any one present, shows that the
virus of Hamiltonianism is creating a
dangerous disease in our body polite

dote to arrest the progress of the
poison.

walls. The chief executive and all 9th
err officials under our form of govern

mere servants of the people and should
be subject to frequent change. This
keeps them from growing arrogant
and despotic. 1t would have been far
better if, in framing the constitution,
the federal judiciary had been given
short terms instead of being appointed

cracy constituting the upper legislative
branch of the government would re-
move the government entirely from
the hands of the people and make
them the mere servitors of govern

Every patriotic citizen will pray that
that time may never come.

Sta ce Villains.

Why is 1t that all stage villains have
black hair and dark eyes? There Is
surely some reason for this and for
the resultant association in the popu-
lar mind Of villainy and swarthiness.
Possibly it might be traced back to
some bogy man of folklore in the
cradle days of the race. But. whatever
its genesis, the idea is deeply rooted
in English stage literature that vii
lains always must have dark complex

would be presumably booted off the
stage. If we look back over Chicago's
criminal history we will find that the
villains of real life seem to fly in the
face of this immemorial melodramatic
tradition. The city's murderers, the
criminals who have been herded to
prison and the men who have been
hanged have had strong numerical
leaning to the blond type. That nine
| out of ten of the men who have danced
on air at ropes end in the Chicago
Jail had gray or blue eyes is fact of
common knowledge to jail employees.

The Argus Daily Short Story
HUNTING WITH D0ROTHY--BY LTTELL McCLUNG
Literary
1908, b

Dorothy was a sportSwoman from
the tip of her dainty pumps to the top
of her aristocratic head. Never had
Owen Compton met Il girl in whom so
many delightful qualities were blend
ed.
That dashing creature known as ''the
athletic girl he cordially disliked,
holding that young women were in
tended primarily for coy corners.
So, when introduced to Dorothy, he
felt sure he would not like her bit.
Handsome she undoubtedly was. and
queenE, too. but with her queenliness
Dorothy was righteousness itself. She
could ride with the skill of n cowboy
the widest pony that ever leaped i
fence. She could shoot like an ex-
pert and row like q university oars
man.
And after galloping gayly over the
fields on one of her napa's most dan
gerous young horses she would come
into the drawing room and. with sym
pathetic touch, play score of old
time melodies surcharged with senti
ment.
Before many moons Owen discover
ed that with all her athletic propensi.
ties Dorothy was as tender natured
| and as warm hearted as any girl who
,, breathed the ozone.
The result was inevitable.
Therefore when Dorothy looked ur

president for Life.

Governor Fort of New Jersey, in his
Washington birthday address before
the Union League club of Chicago, ex-
pressed himself as favorable to the
Hamilton idea of life term for the
president of the United States. Ham,
ilton, one of the patron saints of the
republican party, declared in the con-
vention which adopted the constitu-
ton, that sit would be better to give
to the president a life term because
there was more danger in a fixed term
than in life term" In commenting
on this royalist theory of Hamilton
Governor Fort, the republican COVER
nor of New Jersey, said the foresight
of Hamilton is apparent to the
thoughtful observer of our day."
That many republican leaders hold
this Hamiltonian idea, and that ley
are endeavoring to create sentiment
in favor of it, there is not a shadow
of doubt. The organized wealth CT
the country as combined in trusts and
monopolies, would hail with satisfac
ton permanent presidency. and
would be delighted if the English sys-
tenn of government, with hereditary
executive, permanent senate com
posed of titled aristocrats, with en-
tailed titles and estates, could be
adopted in this country. There is q
strong and perhaps growing belief in
this country that the constitution con
fers too much power on the people
that the people are not to be trusted
with the rights they possess, and that
what is needed is a strong and cen
tralized government sustained by 6
vast standing army and powerful navy
by which popular "clamor" can b,
suppressed and the common people b;
held in subsection.
Governor Fort voiced this opinion
as far as he dared, in his address

Rebuke of "sunday" LawIessness.

Springfield Record: The Record has
promised to praise Rev. William A.
Sunday when he deserves to be praiS-
ed and to condemn him if ever his
acts call for condemnation.
True to this promise, The Record
calls attention to the fact that at the
Sunday night meeting held at the
tabernacle, Fred Seibert, one of Mr.
Sundays paid co-workers, is quoted
as threatening to kill anyone who may
dare to interfere with the Sunday
meetings. The Register quotes Mr.
Seibert as follows: IF anyone has an
idea of bothering in any way he had
better kiss his wife good bye and
leave a measure for his coffin"
Such foolish and uncalled for
threats of murder do not constitute
religion or evangelism, but downright
rowdyism. Mr.. Seibert is said to have
had highly colored career as bad

His face grew pale, for he thought
that good part Of the leaden load

and the blood ran down In q tiny

there was little pain. In fact. the cool
