IMPORTANT CONGRESSIONAL ACTION

The Canadian reciprocity treaty that
has been pending in congress for
months, and especially in the United
States senate since the special session
opened, was concurred in by that body
on Saturday last, So to q. Whether
the best thing for the country or not,
the people will be glad that it had been
brought to head. But it has been a
source of opportunity for the enemies
CT President Taft to thunder their per-
sonal vindigitive abuse and Islander at
the president, and to tell the people
that there are but very few honest
men in public life, and that they are it.
The president has given no heed to
these snarlings and indecencies. That
he has risen in popularity and influence
as broad minded and honest man is
everywhere conceded. The president
has had the courage of his convictions.
The passage Of the treaty is wonder
full personal and official victory for
Taft.

TAKING AN INTEREST IN POLITICS


Should every man, young and old,
take public spirited interest in poll
tics? Yes. Should he take this inter-
est as a partisan? Yes, if he chooses
so 20 do. Should he show zeal for his
party? Yes, provided always that he
will hold his party zeal subject to the
larger consideration of the public
rather than party good.
Should young man be ambitious to
enter politics for the purpose Of hold
ing office? Well, hardly ever. This
thing is greatly overdone. Every young
man should remember that to hold office
in an honorable, successful manner re-
quires special talent and comprehension
Of public questions. Then, besides, he
should remember that no man can make
money in politics without being corrupt
and dishonest.
In politics you must give good deal
more than you take, and there is no
money to be made in that way unless
you steal, and that is too dangerous to
be thought Of. What then shall young
man do? Take deep interest in poll
itics for the sake of good government;
for the sake of promoting the best in
terests Of your community, your state
and nation. For the sake Of your own
intelligent judgment as to men and
measures. Be ambitious to have infu-
ence with your fellowmen in all things
relating to the public good but not for
the purpose Of pushing your own po-
litical fortune. Devote yourself to some
honorable business and conduct it hon.
orably. Do net expect to get rich quick.
That means dishonesty.in almost every
instance. Keep out of Office but don't
forget to take an interest in politics. -
Governor Hoard.

FARMERS EAvING CORN GOSPEL TRAIN
AFTER LBCrUPk-
state for the FIVE year periods before
and after the first corn trains were
run shows an increase of "a bushels
to the acre. Careful observers credit
a large share of this increase to the
seed corn trains. Figuring the average
acreage and the average farm value
for the FIVE years. the increase was
worth more than $S,0oo00o a year.
The extra "a bushels have done much
to bolster up the diminishing food
supply
Since 1904 special trains of various
kinds have been run for the benefit
Of the farmers. Oregon has run an
apple train. Ohio has run dairy
train. and the people of that state have
been taught to test their cows and get
rid Of those which are not paying for
their board. South Dakota and north
ern Iowa have run oat trains and
fought the farmers how to put the oat
crop on the paying side of the ledger
Illinois has run good roads train.
teaching the farmers by the object
lesson how they can have hard roads
the year around. The special train Is
spectacular. but that is one of the rea-
sons for its success. II reaches more
people in a given length of time than
all other methods of agricultural ex-
tension together. In Iowa last winter
three weeks work with special trains
spread the gospel Of corn testing TO
more than $1,000 farmers.

The most drastic campaign publicity
legislation ever passed in either branch
of congress was adopted by the United
States senate, practically without a
dissenting vote. Using the pre-elect-
ion bill as passed by the House of Re-
representatives. as basis, the senate
constructed during proposed law with
the following features: No candidate
for the senate or house shall spend more
than sum equal to 10 cents for each
vote in his district or state. No sena-
torial candidate shall spend a total Of
more than $40, 900 in the primary and
general election, and no candidate for
the house shall spend more than IS, 000
If congress will now limit the amount
of not air and number of demagogue
speeches that may be inflicted on the
public we will approach the millennium
in political righteousness.

BROTHERHOOD.

l have no respect for the man
or social fugitive who fees lest
he fall. If the brotherhood Of
man is fact instead of fancy
everybody who has fallen has
the right TO a helping hand. In
this way it is possible to acquire
a moral worth unequaled by
those receiving the plaudits of
the multitude-to acquire a
moral heroism unequaled by the

DARING.
DRESS.

Courage oozes out of the holes
in a ragged suit and fear enters.
But give the same man a new
suit, clean linen, a good hat and
shining shoes and you will see
how soon fear viii fly away and
confidence be restored. He who
before was afraid to speak in
whispers lest he might be heard
and consequently seen will now
talk loudly of million dollar
propositions, though he may not
have a cent in his pockets. 1t
is the duty of every nan to
dress as well and neatly as his
means and circumstances will
allow. He should cultivate taste
in his apparel and show wisdom
in it's selection His main OBJ
ject should be to give grace to
his figure and attractiyeness to
his general appearance but,
above all, he should dress in ac-
cordance and in keeping with
his station in life. Rev. Madison

The center of population of the Uni
ted States as shown by the census of
1910. have moved westward distance
of 81 miles during the last ten years
and is now located 81 miles south of
Unionville, Indiana. During the prev
ious decade the westward movement
was only Ia miles. The reason for the
more rapid change of the center is the
remarkable increase ofpopulation along
the Pacific coast and other states in the
far west.
