as the report will lose its force with
the expiration of the present Congress
In March.
Just as there are varying opinions
among members of Congress concern
ing the Ballinger case so are there Diff
ferent opinions among citizens
throughout the country. and there will
be contention. and embarrassment for
the administration. as long as Ball
niger remains i'm office. There has
been no disposition on the part of Mr.,
Taft To remove his secretary OF the
interior. and there is no good reason
why he should change his mind now
inasmuch as the majority report of the
congressional committee must be gem
orally accepted by the country at large
as the ruling verdict.

The announcement by Governor
Fleet Osborn that he will not be a
candidate for a second term empha-
sizes his sincerity of purpose and the
fact that politics will play no part i'm
his appointments or recommendations
10 the legislature. This is as the people
would have it. although such a state
OF affairs is not likely to please poll
ticians who play the game simply for
what they can get out of IT,.
Mr.. Osborn's announcement strength
ems our faith i'm him, If that were pos
sible. We have always believed that
as governor he would conduct the af-
fairs OF the state from an unselhsh
standpoint and for the best interests
than sure of il. He is satisfied. he
says. 20 return 70 the duties of pri-
vate citizen at the expiration of his
executive term. and to take up again a
personal work 10 which he plans To de-
vote the rest OF his life. But il is n
question whether he will be allowed To
remain private citizen. as he looms
up largely in the public eye and it is
doubtful whether the people will per-
NIT him To retire permanently as he
wishes. They may insist on his filling
some higher office i'm the public ser
vice, and this demand may be such
that he cannot refuse. However. it is
apparent that Mr.. Osborn has no such
expectation at the present time. for he
says, my one ambition is to serve
the state faithfully for one term and
then return to the pursuits of a private
citizen"
His intention to serve only one term
