In Memory Of J. W. kuseI.

In sad remembrance of our dear son
and brother, julius, who died one year
ago today, Dec. %, 1909:
He left his home so happy,
Intending to come back,
But the sad news came home to us,
Which we never can forget.
Had we but seen him to the last
And held his dying hand,
And heard the last sigh of his heart,
We would not feel so sad.
From his Mother, Father, Brother
and Sisters.

BAILEY's COLD BLANKET.

CENATOR Bailey, of Texas. the Democratic
- leader of the higher House at Washington,
has issued Clarion CALI to the party to return
to old methods. lie decries the election of Rep
resentatve Foss in the Fourteenth District of
Massachusetts, intmatng that he does not con
slider it a Democratic victory in the true sense
of the word. And neither does anyone else
who has looked at the matter in the right light
Baileys remarks will be like a cold blanket
TO those Democrats who have been declaring
that the Foss victory indicated a complete po-
tical turnover throughout the country
Bailey denounces the suggestion that the
Democrats nominate Theodore Roosevelt for
President as absurd And he is right in this
although many Democratic editors in the West
have declared for Roosevelt as their choice for
President But Roosevelt is not a Democrat by
any means, and Bailey clearly points out this
fact
The Texas Senator desires a return to the old
principles, and doubtless return of public con-
fdence in him would be acceptable The Demo
cratic party will not go to victory with such
men as the Texas Senator who stands on the
platform of the party when it suits him, and
jumps off when it doesn't, as the influential
leaders.

early ffties by the first American Frank

Henry Grinnell, who was founder and
the first president Of the American Geo

expedition was also financed in large part
by Grinnell money. and from then on until

seventy-five, and Moses II. three years
later at seventy-four-both brothers were

friend. the late Commodore Van SAINT

years, was probably the most intimate
friend that William II. Vanderbilt ever
had. Mr.. Grnnell was always willing to
subscribe literally to philanthropic and
educational purposes. as we'll as to arc
tic expeditions. In fact, the last twenty
years of his life were devoted in large part
to dispensing money for the good of his
fellow men and the furtherance of Bnowl-
edge.

ways. there was one thing in connection
with money in which he showed he was

rich man the trademen always tried TO
add something which was not justified to

he considered an overcharse Of twenty
