IN SPIRIT THE SAME.

From The Troy Times.
The New-York Tribune has put in a new
battery OF presses and has changed somewhat
the form Of It's publication. But in spirit II
is the same New-York Tribune which for
many year has represented the better SEN
timent Of American citizenship and has stimu-
lated the expression OF that sentiment. At
no time-not even In the days precedent to or
darkened by Civil War--has the Tribune been
more sincerely and courageously representa-
tive OF the public good than Il Is to-day. In
standing against those crazy notions which
are advocated by either the thoughtless or
the demagogic and which strike at the very
root OF American institutions and OF repro
sentative government. Long may the New
York Tribune live. to be one OF the chief
Spokesman Of popular liberty as protected by
law and Of orderly progress and to expose the
short-sightedness Of tho noisy and excitable
crowd which would burn down the house to
kill q rat.

Governor Deneen Of Illinois has
taken the only course consistent with
honor in announcing that as the regu-
larly nominated candidate Of the Re
publican party for the governorshlp
IN his state he will support the regu-
Iarly nominated Republican candidate
for the Presidency. 1t is hard 70 see
how he could ever have been expected
by any fairminded person TO reach a
different conclusion. He was renomi-
mated for Governor by the Republican
voters Of Illinois, the only body com
petent TO give him place as q candi-
date on the Republican ticket. Presi-
dent Taft has been similarly renomi'
mated By the Republican National Con
vendon, the only body competent to
select a Republican Presidential candi-
date.
So far as their claims 60 appear as
Republicans on the official ballot are
concerned the Governor and the Presi-
dent stand on exactly the same foot
ing. Were the Governor TO deny the
Presidents title to regularity he would
at the same time challenge his own
title. Were a Republican state con
Vention TO be held in Illinois this fall
chat convention might possibly be able
60 give some color to the claim that
the fortunes Of the candidates for
state offices are not bound up with the
fortunes Of the candidates for national
offices by refusing to Endorse the &C
don Of the Republican National Con
Cention. But no such convention can
be held under the Illinois primary law
and no possible release can be given
from the obligation Of Republican can
didates for state and local Offices to
support the Republican ticket from
TOD TO bottom. They cannot be 'in-
and-outers" working for one part OF
the ticket and against another part,
for such duplicity would destroy their
own claims on Republican electors and
bring them into contempt as tricksters
ready to sacrifice for their own per
sonal advantage the party which had
honCTed them.
Governor Deneen's refusal TO play
the role Of q Republican on state Is
sues and a third party man on ma
tlonal issues will force 8 Qualification
Of the situation IN Illinois II will
compel the third party leaders TO
nominate a separate state ticket and

Colonel Roosevelt's supporters hope to
remain Republicans Just so far and SO
long as It suits their convenience to
80 80. Having broken with the ma
honal organization, they ought to be
consistent and break with the state
organization. Mr.. Deneen's courageous
stand fortunately leaves them no
choice. Illinois IS to be congratulated
on escaping the hypocrisy and dishon-
ssty Of such q misuse Of the Repub-
ucan party's name and machinery as
ls being contemplated IN Iowa, Kan
gas, South Dakota, Nebraska, Califor-
MIA and Pennsylvania,

common with all good foods, when eaten

like other sweetmeats, does vast amount
Of harm, to the teeth at least, when eaten,
even I'm small amounts. at the wrong
time-that is, between meals or before
going to bed. Unfortunately. it is at
these times that chocolate generally is
eaten. II It were always taken toward
the end OF a meal followed by a deter
gent foodstuff such as fresh fruit, what
you say would no doubt be true. Should
such a regulation be considered too in

There Is reported the case OF a young
man in New Jersey who is in danger
OF losing his arm from blood poisoning

II is added that the bite itched and he

the poisoning was caused by the
scratching rather than by the original
