The bill Of course must come be-
fore the house but there Is nothing to
indicate that body will sot enact Il.
House members have not balked on
n single progressive measure this
session.
The action Of the senate on the
Green bill was personal victory for
Governor Harmon as well as the peo-
pie, who wanted the trainers of the
new constitution TO work free from
the baneful influences OF politics The
action also indicates that Democratic
senator's will cooperate with Gov
ernor Harmon to enact measures pro
missed in the Democratic platform. II
also indicates that the rule Of the
senate by the Republican minority
which Is only four votes less than the
Democratic majority, has ended. No
aid will be given Republicans who
want to continue the policy Of re-
fusing reforms, which was so consis-
tently followed by the 1910 Republi

The commission form of govern.
ment is the ideal and practical
method Of operating a city. 1t
eliminates politics and brings the
management Of the city's business
down to rock bottom. and fixes
responsibility ON individuals un-
til there is a direct accounting
for every penny spent, and for
every act performed. Within a
very few years the commission
form of government will be used
in nearly every city in the Unit
ed States, and the people will be
saved millions Of dollars which
have heretofore been going into
the pockets of grafters and feed
ers upon the indifference of the
people as encouraged by the old
council system.-Beaumont Enter

UNANIMOUSLY ELECTED.

A rising and promising young
politician in an adjoining county
recently made application for the
hand of his sweetheart in the fol.
lowing unique manner:
My Dear Mandy-I hereby an
nounce myself as a candidate for
your heart and hand, and shall
use all fair and honorable means
to secure the nomination. I know
there are many candidates in the
field. and I hesitate before enter
ing the race, but NOW I am in to
stay. My views on love and mat
rimony have been expressed in
your hearing, and need not be re-
peated here. You know I favor
the gold standard Of love-and
the maintenance of that standard
after marriage. If you decide to
confer the honor I seek, please
fix a date for a caucus with your
mother. l have no objection to
her acting as temporary clair
man Of the permanent organiza-
tion. Should the result Of the
caucus prove satisfactory, we can
soon hold the preliminaries and
select the date and place of the
convention. I never believed in
long campaigns, so if you decide
TO honor me I will ask you to
make the convention day as soon
as possible. Devotedly,-"
The young lady's telegram an
swered it thus: "Caucus unmec-
essary. Nomination unanimous.

fiication..Mandy

He was a dog,

He was a dog
That didn roam.
He lay on the steps or chased

The tramp, the burglar, the

For a dogs true heart fol-

At morning and evening,

He was dog.
He was a man
And didn't stay
To cherish his wife and

He was a man,
And every day
His heart grew callous, its
