THE FEDS OF THE HOUR

The world has need of strong men; of honest men; men who have thoughts beyond self f.interest; men of clear brain and honorable impulse; men who, seeing Jheir duty, will fearlessly and honorably do 1t.
 The great trouble to-day in nation, state and municipality is the predomi- nation of selfish interests and men are elected to positions of high trust under promike of great reform, yet scarcely have they been inducted into office ere selfishness to often sways their acts.
 Not always is the sovereign will of che people carried out in matters of state, national, or municipal affairs. Other influences dominate and individuality sinks beneath it and is lost in the swirl of political plans.
 What blessing to human progress were our rulers but free to carry out those higher principles upon which their elevation to office was originally based the best good of nation, state and city.
 But too often there are promises to be fulfilled, political deals to be carried out, henchmen to be rewarded, so that in- stead we see positions of honor and trust which should be filled by men capable of carrying out the highest ideals, being used as spoils to reward mental incom- potency and executive and often moral nnfftness.
 This being true, it is hardly to be wondered that incompetency attains high estate and dishonesty often reigns In high places.
 Not until public office is delegated to men competent for the place; not until the voice of the people is raised in united protest against existing wrongs; not until integrity and honesty and ability rank as governing qualifications for official appointments, will the nation, the state and the municipality right the !, 4revious wrongs which now exist.
 Not until graft is driven from high places: not until reform in politics be- comes something more than mere catch-penny device to lure the nasty and inconsiderate into ill-advised action; not until humanity, weary of the shams and the pretences which too often disgrace political life, rises in the majesty of its might and administers the rebuke de- manded, shall we have righteous govern ment of the people, for the people and hv the poOnla

Birds That Return Next Year

Whether pair of birds that nest in a particular tree one year come back to it again is a question which thousands ask every spring. From a flock of swallows flying over a town in Kent, Eng, a few weeks ago four separated themselves and settled on shed. One was caught, and on one of it's legs was found ring put there last year by the captor's sister. All uncertainty about that identical swal- low was thus ended, but it would not be safe to draw conclusions about other birds. But further information will probably soon come in, for more than 2.000 birds were thus marked last ye, each ring being inscribed with Q num- Der and few words, and a record of the times and places at which the rings were attached has been kept for future reference. A duplication of these ex- periments in America would be interest ing. For the rings aluminium, being light and cheap, was used in England. To determine how large proportion of robins, bluebirds and swallows possess the homing instinct of the carrier pigeon would be a task attractive from both tie sentimental and the scientific point of view. If some one should take the initiative and let the newspapers know it is likely that the example would be promptly followed in this country New York Tribune.
