Cause of Misery.

Here is an observation from Carlyle:
'Al misery is faculty misdirected-
strength that has not yet found it's
way" This is undoubtedly true, All
suffering and failing can be traced
back TO one getting out of the true
path. 1t may not sometimes be ones
fault. Ignorance or environment may
intervene and lead us astray. But all
progress consists in one finding the
true way of ones strength; to see that
the faculty is rightly directed.
Finding this path is the end of knowl-
edge and civilization. This means
doing the right thing. physically, men
tally. morally; obeying Gods law
that's it: that is all there is to it. That
is what keeps the strength and faculty
intact and makes life worth living.
The perfect mortal is the one whose
faculty is rightly directed and whose
strength has found its way 1t is that
that makes the true, manly, useful,
happy life: that makes the life last
longer and keeps it sweet and whole
some while it lasts.-Ohio State Jour

when Barton, In "a spirit Of fun, had
answered a request in the Postcard
Exchange" of an illustrated weekly for

The response had been prompt and
was accompanied by so many ingen-

Long and Short Term

The supreme court has settled
the question of the candidacy of
persons aspiring to the United
States senate, so far as the votes
at the primaries may be permitted
to register their choice.
A candidate must designate in his
petition whether he is a candidate
for the long term or the short
term.
The United States senate is
divided into three classes and
the terms of United States sem
ators from the same state never
terminate at the same time.
Substantially, and for the pur-
pose of the present situation, there
are two offices-one for the long
term and one for the short term
and the candidate must declare
in his petition which term he is
candidate for.
TO bunch the candidates on the
primary ballot without such des-
ignation would be confusing to
the voter-not only confusing.
but he could not in any way ex-
press his preference as between
candidates-which he desires for
q six-year term and which he de-
sires for the shorter term. to fill
the vacancy caused by the death of
Mr.. johnson.
The contest to determine this
matter was a friendly one and the
court realizing the Importance of
the matter, through Chief Justice
Morgan. concurred in by tie whole
court, has laid down the law.
There was no precedent and no
opinions to follow. This is the
first time in the history of the
United States that this question
has come up.
The position oft he court is the
same as that taken by the Bismarck
Tribune many months ago. I,
seemed to US that it was pro-
per for candidate, in view Of
the fact Of the difference in the
terms. to declare which term he
desired. that the voter might with
equal frankness express his choice
This simplifies the senatorial
situation so far as the people are
concerned and relieves the legis
lature of all embarrassment. Sen
ator McCumber, who has on ever,
proper occasion expressed hi
desire to succeed himself for thu
long term, stands before the PEG
pie without confusion. A vot,
for him means vote for the six
year term. Mr.. Marshall is sim
ilarly situated. He is candidat
against McCumber. Mr.. Gronn'
is candidate to fill the vacanc,
caused by the death Of Senate
, Johnson. and he is opposed by Mr.
