GET THE RIGHT CAR.


Laura Jean Libbey, the writer, being
interviewed on marriage. says:
Marriage is like running for the
street car. You run and you run. You
get very much excited and out Of
breath. Then when you have caught
the car you sit down in your seat and
you are not excited any more. You
are Just quiet and satisfied"
The simile Is an apt one.
The undue haste of many moderr
marriages Is fitly compared with I:
breathless run after the street car
both unnecessary.
Look at them
Here is one who has barely reached
the platform Of the matrimonial rapi0
transit line when he discovers he l.
on the wrong car. While he makes q
great fuss about it, another, havins
made a like discovery, quietly drot.
of at the next stop.
"Quiet and satisfied?
Why, some of these get-married
quick passengers have ridden scarce
ly block before they discover theil
mistake and-even before they pa
their fare-demand a transfer!
And the conductor grants 1t.
Some Of the matrimonial tourists d.
not even wait for the car to stop, bu
tumble or pell NELL. spelling thei
tempers and tearing their reputation
affording inextinguishabl BILE laughter I,
the gods of matrimonial misrule.
And some-these are mostly womel
passengers-get off backward.
| Many Of the marry-in-haste fare
turn into grumbling strap holders, wh
| will not be either quiet or satisfied.
Even when provided with fair a.
| commodations they continue to fin
| fault with the schedules or the roao
| bed or the ventilation.
And once In awhile a rash individ
| ual blankly refuses to pay the fare an
! Is incontinently shoveled off.
And yet
For one who refuses TO pay or find
fault or jumps OF what lot Of happ
| passengers travel the line.
These are they who waited for tn
right car, knew where and when t
get on and where the line ran.
Why run for the car?
There viii be another along present
ly-and the one you wait for may b
the better car.
Wait. Wait until you can read th
sign or see the lights.

Conclusions

Conclusions are drawn, jumped at
and reached.
A conclusion that is drawn is one
that is sometimes mixture of two
parts suspicion and one part appear
Rnces.
A conclusion that is jumped at Is
just as apt to be right as any other
kind.
a conclusion that is reached Is gen
erallv the one that is handiest.
Some conclusions are the result of
deductions. In these instances the
conclusion Is first formed, then the
deductions are made backward.
When a man arrives at the right
conclusion he confides to you that he
can always rely upon his good juge-
ment; when he come TO tho wrong con-
clusion he excuses himself by saying
he was misled.
Tho difference between an opinion
and conclusion is that an opinion is
what you think about a thing, while a
conclusion is what you think you have
thought about it.

nothing compared to this new

ted. We seem to be ten or ff,
teen years behind the time in

doing now. Until the people,
aroused to the gravity of the
situation capitalists will work
their sweet will, putting them
deeper into debt through the
issuance of bonds with which
they have nothing to do, but on
which they must pay dividends,
and using the money of the

Not So Frisky Now

At this time last year all the
machine serving G. o. p. organs
in Ohio were Haunting the cry,
Governor Harmon has failed tc
make good his graft charges.
The reason they gave was there
is no graft, and they kept it up
for months.
Governor Harmon said moth
ing and sawed wood. He let his
partisan critics take all the rope
they wanted while he was get
ting at the facts. When he got
sufficient facts in his possession,
something tangible to go into
court with, he sailed in.
First came the suits against
the McKinnon estate and Nc
Kinnon's bondsmen, which At
torney General Denman filed in
court in compliance with Cover
nor Harmon's official instruc-
tions to do so. The g. o. p.
critics said everybody knew it
long ago" but nobody ever heard
of Governor Harris or Attorney
General Ellis doing anything
about it.
Two banks refused to permit
an examination of their records,
and Governor Harmon ordered
that the states deposits be with
drawn from those banks. The
critics began to squirm and
scream that Harmon is playing
politics. He promptly knocked
the wind out of that false accus-
alton and went on with his prob
ing.
Suits we're begun against form
er State Treasurer Cameron and
his bondsmen to recover interest
on state funds.
The critics continued to
scream, Harmon is playing poll
tics" He let them scream with
out talking back, and thrust the
probe into Mark Slater's record
as state printer. Now Slater is
doing penance.
By this time the legislatures
probe committee got into action.
It's testimony was turned over to
the Franklin county grand jury
and several indictments fol
lowed. The governors critics
shouted gleefully that Demo
Gratis were being caught in Har-
mons drag but he came
right back at them and said he
wanted the probe to go to the
bottom regardless of whether it
hit Republicans or Democrats.

Open Season for c. O. P. ScqpegOats

Republican party. IL will be
necessary TO hear from the Col
onel and Pinchot Garfield before
deciding on the efficacy of the
vicarious sacrifice.
Perhaps when it comes TO the
pinch neither Cannonnor Aldrich
nor Ballinger will want TO be the
goats. They may suggest that
other Republicans could play
the part better. All of those
selected as goats show signs of
insubordination. Uncle Joe says
he is fit as a fiddle, and expects
the Republicans of his district
TO reflect him; and the Repub-
lican caucus and not the Admin
istration will decide whether he
shall be reelected as Speaker.
Senator Aldrich, at the request
of the safe man," has made a
statement that will bring on
more controversy with Senator
Bristow, which indicates that
this goat businesses may be car
ried too far and that he is still
an alive politician entity. Ball
inger-here may be found the
real and scapegOat-will gladly
leave the Cabinet after the ma
jority of the committee of in
vestigation has given him a coat
of whitewash. The safe man"
will escort him to the wilderness
in his whitened garb, after first
parading him through the West
ern states as the real goat of the
Administration.
These are the plans of the
Administration, but perhaps the
popular appetite for goats will
not be appeased by the Taft ban
quet and will demand more
scapegoats before election day.
1t is quite within the realm of
probabilities that in casting out
these goats to the ravening
wolves, that are politically
termed insurgents" the demand
for the play to be repeated will
be so insistent that only Presi-
dent Taft and the safe man"
will be left to tell the tale.
The Celina Democrat. (Celina, O. [Ohio]) 1895-1921, 1910-08-26

This seems TO be the open sea-
son for Republican scapegoats,
and every g. o. p. patriot is gun.
ming for one or more. In olden
times scapegoats were driven
into the wilderness and the
weight of the sins they bore pre-
sumablY caused them TO perish.
In these modern times our poll
tical scapegoats are driven into
the political wilderness as a
manifestation to the people of
the virtue and integrity of the
drivers, or as an example to 9th.
ers to keep in with the powers
that be.
The open season for cunning
for Republican scapegoats is
always just before election
their hides have more political
value at that time, especially if
the portents of the election in
dicate that it will be close and
doubtful.
The summer capital at Beverly
seems to be the headquarters for
the scapegoat hunters and such
eminent statesmen as Cannon,
Aldrich and Ballinger d
goodness knows who besides
the dire exigencies and sins of
the party may require-have
been selected as the living sac
rifice.
An evidently inspired dispatch
from Beverly sent out by the
Associated Press on August II,
tells the tale of woe and the prob
able fate of the scapegoats.
There is a striking similarity in
the plans of the Administration
to the Jewish ceremonial de-
scribed in Levlticus. The scape-
goat therein described bears all
the sins of the people, and is
sent by the hand of safe man..
into the wilderness where there
are no people. Senator Crane
seems to be the safe man" in
the ceremonial now under way,

PREPARING FORA
STUPENDOUS STEAL
From leading editorial in the Appea
to Reason, August 90.

From leading editorial in the Appeal
to Reason, August 20.
The country has been partial
ly aroused over the issuance OF
currancy bearing the legend,
secured by the United States
bonds or other security" This
has largely taken place of all
other money in circulation and
makes bonds and stocks issued
by the railroads and industries,
far in excess of real value,
available for currency issues. 1t
is a steal involving millions.
Yet this is only a beginning.
The press announces that only
at the present time at the AL
drich- Vreeland currency is to be
really issued. This is the final
consummation Of the work of
putting out worthless paper in
the place of real money. The
Wichita Eagle, a republican pa
per, frankly says that this mon
ey is to be issued to prevent a
possible panic. To quote:
The banks in the central
reverse cities propose to be
prepared for anything short
of a general break down of
credit. There have been in
the treasury at Washington
for a year or more many
millions of notes engraved
and ready for signature to
be turned over to such
associations when called
for"
These associations are banks
that are on the inside and which
hold qualities of trust stocks
and bonds. The stocks and
bonds are deposited with the
government and currency issued
against them to these banks.
They still get the dividends and
interest on the stocks and bonds
and have a free gift Of the mill
ions of dollars Of currency is
sued against them.
The prees announces that j.
P. Morgan is now perfecting a.
combination of banks to control
the deposits that are to bel
brought in through the new pos
tai savings bank law, having al
combined capitalization of a bill
lion dollars. In other words the
government under this law will
merely collect the small deposits
of the many and give them into
the hands of a trust, which will
have power to use them in buy
ing newly issued industrial
stocks and bonds, and when
these securities are purchased
they may be deposited with the
government and currency issued
against them, 1t will be doub-
ling their resources from the
issuance of currency, and, be-
sides, utilizing the money of the |
many in order to make the few
billionaires.
