Why Taft Failed.

When the history of Mr.. Taft's
administration is written, his failure
to WIN tie sympathy o. the people
will no doubt be attributed to his
selection as advisers of men who are
not in sympathy with the needs of
the people Of the country
Let us see who the men are, sur
rounding President Taft, who know
exactly what "they" want; and
VINO, through having practica a
monopoly of the Presi dents car
have been able TO deceive him INTO
the belief that he is acting the part
of real statesmnn if he votoss leo

Laughter.

Here's to laughter! The sun
shine of the soul, the happiness of
the heart the heaven of youth, the
privilege of purity, the echo of inno-
cence. the treasure of the humble
the wealth Of the poor, The bead on
the cup of pleasure; it dlspels de-
lection banishes blues and mangles
melancholy, for its the foe of woe,
the destroyer of PRESTON the
enemy o! grief.it is why kings envy
peasants, plutocrnts the poor. the
guilty the innocent;,it is the sheen
on the silver of smiles, the ripple on
the waters of delight; the CLINT on
the gold of gladness. Without it
humor would be dumb, wit would
wither, dimples would disappear and
smiles would shrivel, for it's the
glow of a clean conscience, the voice
of pure soul, the birch CRY of
mirth the swan song OF sadness,
Laughter!

Now the Democrats and the
Progressive" Republicans,
without making it a party issue,
have passed bills for the reduc
ton of the duties on necessaries

which it is said the Republican

Congressman Hamilton, after
an absence of nearly two weeks
with the Rivers and Harbors
committee Of Congress, has re-
turned to Washington and is
ready to take up all matters
which accumulated during his
absence. There is little mattec
requiring his attention, as his
secretary, John M. Hamilton Jr.,
attended to most Of the matters
requiring his attention while the
Congressman was away.
Mr.. Hamilton's trip was not
taken for the sake of the trip.
1t was a tiresome journey, with
the steamboat stuck on sand
bars much of the time and the
boat hardly averaging IS much
speed af p good pedestrian could
make. But Mr.. Hamilton felt
that in no other way could he SO
impress upon the committee the
needs and requirements of the
Ohio and Little anawha rivers
as by going with the party on
the trip Of inspection.
1t was unfortunate that the
party passed Parkersburg in the
night and was unable to stop, for
1t was thought that an inspection
trip would be made for a short
distance up that river. This.
however. had to be abandoned.
Mr.. Hamilton, however WIS per-
sistent in talking with the men,
bers of the committee about the
Little Kanawha and the bane
improved navigation on that
stream would be to lar ge num-
Der of people. He had figures to
show the traffic on the river and
the difference in passenger and
freight rates before and after the
mpro vement of the river.
Altogether, Mr.. Hamilton's
trip with the Rivers and Har-
bors committee is believed to
nav e done lot Of good for the
Ohio ard Little Kanawha rivers,
and it was taken at a time when
his presence here was not re-
quired.
