BRYAN Praises Wilson.

Because of his SUPPORT of James G..
MARITIME for United States Senator,
w. j. Bryan has rendered political
absolution of Governor Woodrow Will
son, of New Jersey, and placed him
in his list of the Democratic elect.
In his CommOner Mr.. Bryan gives
praises to the governor and concludes:
"Undoubtedly Gov. Wilson knows
more about practical politics to- day
than he did when James Smith, Jr..
and other New Jersey corporationists
gave him the gubernational nomina
ton and held before his eyes the
tempting hope for the presidency. If
Governor Wilson had known in 1896
what he knows to-day he would have
fought shoulder to shoulder with the
Democrats of that year, rather than
with the Palmer and Buckner forces
that were working as aides to the Re-
publican party.
sin the name of every lover of pop
ular government the Commoner thanks
Governor Wilson for his patriotic eff
forts" Then MI. Bryan co~ngratulates
New Jersey ON having sent to the
Senate such a nan as Mr.. MARITIME.

The Initiative and Referendum.

Mortimer Whitehead, the veteran
granger describes three of the political
reforms wanted as follows.
The "Initiative" is the right of a
given percentage of the voters to call
for and compel vote on any sort of law
which they wish to propose.
The "R~eferendum" is the right of a
given percentage of the voters, within
a reasonable length of time, to demand a
popular vote of any bill that has been
passed by the Legislature, Or by a city
council, a petition of such voters oper-
ating as a stay of proceedings until a
vote can be had. The referendum is
merely the right of veto in the hands of
the people. just as the right now
exists in the President, the governor, or
in the mayor.
The "Recail'' is the right of the PEG.
pie to discharge, or recall, any official
who proves to be unsatisfactory, by
means of an election called OH the petit.
ton of a given percentage of voters.
The Grange has helped to have these
great reforms enacted into law in Maine,
Oregon and several other states, and
more are coming.

How To Live Well.
BY GEORGE WASHINGTON.

Be curteous to all, but intimate with
few; and let those few be well tried be-
fore you give them confidence. True
friendship is a plant Of slow growth, and
must undergo and withstand the shocks
of adversely before it is entitled to the
appellation. Let your heart feel for the
Affections and distresses of every one,
and let your hand give in proportion to
to your purse; remembering always the
estimation OF the widows mite, that it is
not every one that asketh that deserveth
charity; all, however, are worthy of the
inquiry, or the deserving may suffer. Do
not conceive that fine clothes make fine
men, any more than fine feathers make
fine birds. A plain, genteel dress is more
admired, and obtains more credit, than
lace and embroidery, in the eyes of the
judicious and sensible From a Letter to
His Nephew, Bushrod Washington, 1888.

What Is Representative Government

Gov. Woodrow Wilson spoke at the
Democratic banquet in Philadelphia Oh
Tuesday evening in part as follows:
"But they say this is an age of radi-
calism. And may 1 ask, what is radi-
calism? An interesting circumstance
about the radicalism of our own time
is that it proposes a restoration.
"The literary theory Of our insiitu-
tons is that we are living under a
representative form of government. The
fact is that we are not living under a
representative form of government
People are working now not to destroy,
but to restore represent alive govern
ment.
"What Pm in erested in particularly
is not why we do not have representa-
tive government, but in the transition
of liberty into experience. Our task is
not to determine what specific reforms
we want, hut to decide how we are
going to get them.
1--WE know what W. want, and both
parties promise to give us what we
want. But the fact is we haven't got
what we want.
1--WE want liberty. But what is lib
erty? Liberty consists in the best ad-
justment possible in society. 1t doen't
consist in having or own way; O in
any class having its own way; but in
the reasonable and most equitable ad-
justment of all the interests of the
country with each other. The perfect
adjustment of the parts to each other is
what we are seeking.
l have a certain regard for the Re
publican party-a party which through
a portion of a long series of years has
kept upasuccessful bluff. Such a party
is worthy of respess, at least"

The bb,rbspects are that the high tide

The prospects are that the high tide
of rising prices has been reached, which
has followed the great increase in the
supply of gold which has been in prog
ress for the past twelve years. George
E. Roberts, director of the U. S. Mint,
reports that the production of gold fell
off all Over the world in 1910. He is of
the opinion that any possibility of an
embarrassing Over.supply Of gold with
the attendant rise in prices which eco
nomists predict with 1T, has been passed.
Gold is the only metal on which pri-
mary money is stamped and the record
of history proves that prices rise and
fall with the increase and decrease of
primary money. Silver had a like eff
feet until it was prohibited free coinage
between 1870 and 1880 by laws made
in different countries at the behest of
those who deal in money and Obliga-
tons which call for money.
The Penn's Grove record., 1911-02-24
Washington's Example.

AT each occurrence of Washington's
birthday his virtues are eXtolled. In
most things he was like other men, but
history furnishes no counterpart to him
as an unselfsh patriot. Many have
served their country well, while but
few did so uobley when opportunities
for selfish ACKNOWLEDGMENT and personal
profit was presented.
When George Washington resigned
his commission as General OF the con-
tinental army to Congress he presented
a carefully itemiZed account OF his
personal expenses during the eight
wears of war, and refused 10 accept
compensation of any kind for services
that freed four millions of people and
established the greatest republic on
earth. In his case, for the first time in
such circumstances, there were no
princely grants of land nor money, no
titles, no decorations OF honor, no sug-
gestions of diadems and scepters. Re-
nouncing all personal gains he won
priceless honor and immortality.
That was the example he set for
other men to follow in maintaining a
republic for the peoples benefit. Be-
cause there is so little of that spirit to-
day; because of the strenuous chase
after the almighty dollar is what ac-
counts for the cry of political reform
and change of systems. The forms OF
government need not so much chang
ing as the spirit of most men who fill
offices, both High and low.
Washington was rich and could
afford to serve a poor people. Many in
office are also rich, but the madness of
the age for money leads to the use of
the government to increase their wealth,
besides wanting big pay for their SER
vice when they do not need it any more
than Washington did.
w hen the unselfsh patriotism of Gin
cinnatus had died, Rome fell before the
Goths and Vandals. Wealth had &C
cumulated into the hands of the few.
The army and courts were for sale and
common people had nothing for which
to fight. The Roman republic died,
because unselfsh patriotism vas dead.
The noblest motive, the public good, as
proclaimed by Virgil, had ceased to be.
All that is needed in American life
to-day is the spirit of unselfsh patriot
ism which Washington exhibited. 1t
is not the man himself, but the motives,
principles and services which makes a
man great.
With an incteaee of the spirit Of
unselfish service IL the church, state
and private enterprise will come a
greater patriotism and a broader hu-
maDitarianism.
