and increasing activity of the states, The
questions which affect their internal in
terests do not often square with the ques-
lions which divide national parties from
one another. 1t is difficult 10 translate
the particular interests of an individual
state and it's people into terms which will
sound like a democratic platform as dis
tinguished from a republican platform.
Men are beginning TO realize that patriotic
endeavor in these fields is not matter of
partisanship, but matter of intelligent in
formation, and that 1t requires a kind of
action from which 1t is possible to shut out
party feeling altogether Civic activity is
hard sometimes to translate into party
terms, and what is interesting men in
America nowadays more than ever before
is the detail of civic duty They are more
and more displaying their anxiety to COM
prehend the needs OF the communities In
which they live and TO meet those needs
in as candid and unselfish a way as pos
sible I say 'unseifsh and yet 1t is not
altogether a matter of unselfshness,
either. The best indication OF enlighten-
ment in any community Is that It's business
men should begin to realize that nothing
benefits them individually so much as the
uniform and equitable development of the
communities in which they live and Of the
whole country. What will bring us into a
new day, II anything will, is the growing
perception that the common interest Is syn
onymous with individual interest; that a
free, comfortable, happy, energetic people
are the best capital that country can
possess. and that only those things which
stimulate the general body OF the people
and do them justice will make business in
the narrow sense truly prosperous and
profitable,
Let us congratulate ourselves that now
In each state In turn men are addressing
themselves IN a new quest; they are seek
ing to find the common term Of their life,
that is 10 say, the general interest, in the
consciousness that when they have dis
covered II and have by common counsel
got together in common endeayor they have
at last discovered the best way TO serve
themselves as well as the best way TO
serve the country, Modern business is upon
a great and public scale Modern buslness
men are engaged Ia nothing less than the
statesmanshsip of enonomie development,
and only as they address themselves. TO the
matter in the spirit OF statesmen will they
really achieve the large ends at which they
are aiming"

states have stepped forward and reas.
serted themselves as full partners with the
federal government in inspiring program
OF progressive reform.
They are the trying-out grounds of our
political system. Each state is at liberty
to develop its own opinion, TO suit its re-
forms to its own life, to try this expert
ment and the other with it's laws and in
stitutions in order that no hopeful pro-
gram may be neglected or fail of being
neglected. 1t is very noteworthy that
some Of the most alert and progressive Of
our state communities, like those OF sew
eral of our western states, have set the
pace for the country, have fortunately
exercised their rights of Independent choice
in such\a way as to blaze a trail for the
more conservative states. In many in
stances they have made mistakes, no
doubt, but the mistakes have been in
structive and profitable to themselves and
TO the rest of the country hardly less than
their successes have been At any rate
whatever betide, they do not hold back
duh and acquieseent and hopeless. They
are no longer beating about in nameless
routine OF legislation without large plan
or program, and they are diligently setting
themselves to face the circumstances OF a
new age adjusting the conditions Of their
life to the new forces, checking those
things which are sinister and menacing
and permitting those things which are hon
est and hopeful and full OF legitimate
force.
"our states, therefore, are again proving
themselves the source Of our variety and
Individuality They are proving themselves

the sources OF our legal growth. The fed

They are Bradford People, and
What they Say is of Local Interest
When an incident like the fol-
lowing occurs right here at home
it is bound to carry weight with
our readers. So many strange oc-
currences go the rounds of the
press, are published as facts, peo-
pie become skeptical. On one sub
ject skepticism is rapidly disap-
pearing. This is due to the actual
experience of our citizens, and
their public utterances regarding
them. The doubter must doubt no
more in the face of such evidence
as this. The public statement of a
reputable citizen, living right at
home, one whom you can see ev-
cry day. leaves no ground for
the skeptic to stand on.
