No Air of Royalty Surrounds the
Family of the President.
The daughter and son of President
Taft wander about town at will and
often pass unnoticed up and down the
business thoroughfares of Washington.
The other day an interesting incident
took place outside the White House
gates. Miss Helen Taft, clad in a chic
walking suit of brown biscuit cloth,
with straw hat to match, had just
stepped out of the White House gate
on her way across Lafayette Park to
the home Of a girl friend She was
stopped by a tourist who had no idea
of her identity and who asked her
numerous directions about the White
House. Miss Taft stopped on her way
and patiently pointed out the old and
the new part of the White House,
where the East room was AMI apart

The other day Charlie Tart. on the
Speedway watching the flights of the
Rex Smith aeroplane, moved from the
side lines and sauntered across the
field to get some snapshots. The guard
who did not know him, stopped him
and Master Charles declined to leave
He was seized by the irate policeman.

There can be no doubt that the
boosters of the city of Memphis have
a live press agent-an agent gifted
with original ideas Witness, the wide
publicity given to the offer made by
the democrats of Memphis Of a pres
ent of two millions of dollars to Will
lam J. Bryan if he would make his
home at Memphis. The press agent
knew that the offer and its certain
refusal would be published every
where. and thus put the somnolent
Tennessee town on the map; and he
knew that the offer could be made
with entire safety, because Mr.. Bryan
could not afford. even for two million
dollars, TO make a public laughing
stock Of himself Why didn't Tempe
think Of the scheme first, and offer
Mr.. Bryan three millions?

Friendship of Slow Growth

Too many people there are who con-
found mere acquaintance with friend
ship. These are the people who are
ever ready 10 grapple every new ac-
| quaintance to their breasts. give to
them the best that is in themselves
and confide in them to the extent
they would hardly offer the Oldest
/ friend
/ 1t was General washington who
said: True friendship is a plant Of
| slow growth, and must undergo and
withstand the shocks of adversely be-
| fore it is entitled to the appellation."
Friendship must be strong because
/ il is called upon to endure much It
must put up with foibles and quirks of
I character and disposition that scarcely
any other relationship is called upon
to bear. 1t must be patient and long
suffering and it must be fOrgiving. It
must always be in the mood for any
and every enterprise and it must be
carefully tended.
In brief. friendship is a flower that
withers at the first unfavorable breeze
and perishes with the least rough
handling. 1t has all the attributes of
!
tive plant
Therefore, it requires much Of those
who would have it grow in the gardens
Of their hearts. And as long as it gets
what it requires it will thrive. Yet
there is scarcely a more beautiful re-
lationship. 1t bestows as much as it
takes and it gives to life the zest re-
quired for completeness.
You remember Shakespeare adj
monishes US:
The friends thou hast and their
adoption tried
Grapple them to thy soul with hoops
of steel"
Good advice that was old when the
poet gave it. but which is as important
today as it was in the beginning Too
many Of us are likely to allow our
friendships to wane Sometimes it is
the stress Of work or business that
makes us sacrifice them. Sometimes
it is sheer carelessness and again it is
neglect. But whatever the cause, it IS
all wrong.
One should use the utmost care in
forming friendships Not everyone
who would claim this sacred relation
ship with US is worthy or is fitted to
meet the eXigencies we may put them
TO in maintaining the relationship
Some are not worthy, considered from
any angle.
friendship that lowers cur esti-
mate of the value Of goodness and vir-
tue had better be dropped as soon as
begun, because It can bring us nothing
but regret. So, too, the friendship that
lowers our own ideals and purposes in
life or makes us place a lower esti-
mate on the value Of a definite aim
in life. Friendship that constantly
subtracts from our stock of courage,
purpose or inclination to make head
way is only masquerade and should
never for a moment be entertained
Man or woman wants only those as
sociations that are elevating and en-
nobling. They want only those friend
ships that bring out the best in them
and make them courageous and low
able, worthy members Of any society
And the friendship that does not per-
form that office is impotent and worth
less

To Carry Forward the Moffat Project

To Carry Forward the Moffat Project.
Although Colorado's progressive citi-
zens realize deeply the loss the state
sustained in the death of David H.
Moffat, they do not propose that Mr..
Moffats great railway project shall
fail. The opposition which Mr. Mof-
fat encountered in the money centers
Of the east is even more determined
since his death. and it seems unlikely
that all the private capital necessary
can be enlisted. But an independent
railroad from Denver to Salt Lake
City is of too much value to Colorado
and to Denver, especially, to permit
the opposition of the trancontental
lines to defeat the project. Accord
ingly, it is proposed that the state
shall assume a large part of the bur
den which remains.
The legislature will undoubtedly
provide. if it has not already an ap-
preparation which will go far to
make the ultimate completion of the
road a certainty. OF this measure the
Denver Republican says:
Former Senator Henry NJ. Teller
comes out squarely in support Of the
state tunnel construction bill, which
passed the house on third reading
yesterday and is now with the senate.
This was to have been expected from
him as a citizen Of Colorado and ad-
herent Of the constructive school Mr.
Teller. better than most people, knows
the difficulties that have been en-
countered in the money center by the
builder and promoters Of the Moffat
road and he knows full well that the
most direct way to break the spell,
which has been cast upon Colorado
through the Wall street railroad COM
bine. is for the state to get busy on
its own account.
IF conditions were the same now
as those which existed when much of
the railroad construction in Colorado
was undertaken. there would be no
need for state aid to railroad build
ing; competition would be sufficient
TO carry through such an undertake
ing The Evans Moffat enterprises
We're aided by railroad rivalries in
the east in olden days: at this day
under the newer economies for the
abolition of grinding competition
the powerful trunk lines are in COM
bination against any independent ex-
tensions. 1t remains for the state to
work ont its own salvation"

neutrality-suspicious. for sundry
purposes. OF the $4,000 registered
voters, just half that number went to
the polls. And Of the number who
voted at ali, from one-fifth to one
half took the trouble, in addition to
voting for city Officers, to vote on
the special questions. Referring to
these facts, the Hartford Courant
comments with sarcasm upon the al
legged anxiety Of the people for more
power at the polls.
The Hartford incident is not I'M
usual in any way. In response to the
howls Of agitators the people in va
riOus sections Of the country are
clamoring for the power TO legislate
for themselves at the polls, and yet
they invariably neglect now TO avail
themselves Of the privileges they
have already.
It could easily be imagined, from
the noise that has been made in be
half Of the initiative and referendum
in Arizona, for example, that the
people here are so wildly anxious for
more power that they prove their
anxiety on every occasion. But in
the elections TO vote bonded indebt-
edness upon themselves, the people so
uniformly stay away from the polls
that only a handful of the registered
voters take the trouble to vote one
way or the other.

A Possible Solution of the Statehood
Question.

According to the Associated Press
dispatch sent from Washington yes
terday President Taft may be re-
lieved Of the responsibility of passing
upon Arizona's constitution.
This end would be accomplished
by a bill to repeal that section Of the
enabling act which requires the con-
stitution to be submitted TO the presi-
dent for his approval or disapproval.
Presumably the scheme mentioned
does not contemplate that congress
also shall be relieved Of responsibility
in the matter. And if the bin men
toned can be passed through con-
Eress, the inference would be that the
constitution itself would receive the
necessary number of votes for its APP
prevail
on the score Of political eXpediency
Mr. Taft would not be displeased, we
suppose, to be relieved Of the respon-
sibility which the existing law i'm
poses upon him.
If the proposed plan is carried out,
Arizona may be a state in the very
near future.

doubtful. The attack was very sud
den as he was first taken last Satur-
day.
"A. b. Calf, cashier of the State
Bank of Estelline, and u. Poppen,
of that place, were visitors in this city
Wednesday,. Mr.. Poppen also made

Auditor w. M. Look wishes us to
announce that a fruit exhibit from
this county will be made at the state
fair. There is considerable fruit
raised in this county and a very
creditable exhibit can be made if the
growers will save some of their best
products. If you have anything in
the fruit line tlease notify the county
auditor and thus confer a favor upon
him, and also upon the whole county.
j. L. Van Hook loaded his stock
and some of his household goods at
Erwin the first of the week and ship
ped to Eckalaka, Mont. He will locate
about thirty-ive miles from that place
where some of his boys have land.
Mr.. Van Hook intends 10 remain for
a year, and prehaps longer. How
ever this move is not as yet regarded
by him as permanent. He still holds
his three quarters of land in Spirit
Lake township, and will continue to
hold them for some time, whether he
locates where he is now going, or at
some other place. He is not at all
certain that he will not return after a
year or two. His son Jesse is locat-
ed on the farm and will operate the
three quaters the coming season,
The Van Hook family were among
the oldest settlers of Spirit Lake and
will be missed by everyone. All hope
they will return soon.
