II Is lncOncclFaDie Inat ne should ever
be found consciously supporting tn,
special interest against the popular
welfare"
Commenting upon the Harvey cpl
sode. the Outlook of Jan. q. 1912,
has the following to say: ION the pub
lished statements of facts, there is
nothing in Governor Wilson's course
that is incompatible with a sense Of
gratitude to a friend and appreciation
of his services. If Colonel Harvey did
not want his question answered he
should not have asked it, anS since he
did ask it it is scarcely fair to him
CWilson) to give the impression that
Governor Wilson made a statement
rather than answered a question The
delight with which certain Democrats,
as well as Republicans, have welcomed
! this incident as an injury to Governor
Wilson's prospects, is measure of the
impression which Governor Wilson has
made or the American people as pro
gressive leader"
After the letters between Colonel
Harvey and Governor Wilson We're
published the Outlook Feb. 10, 1912
had the following to say: There are
two Interpretations of this correspond
ence One IL that in this instance Gov
ernor Wilson permitted himself to be
governed by reasons of political expe-
diency to break friendship in d man.
ner which he himself has called tact
less with q man for whom, since the
event, he has expressed personal re-
gard and friendship in the strongest
terms. If this Interpretation prevails
the publication of these letters will
have an important political effect. be-
cause we believe the American people
do not care to see in their represent
ativeS any lack of courage in dealing
with any evil. such as the evil of per
sonal gossip, and do not want their
high public officials to let mere politi-
cal eXpediency govern matters of heart
or conscience. But there is another in
depreciation that does more credit to
Governor Wilson. 1t is that when he
made his reply to Colonel Harvey he
had, as he later explained in one of
his letters, no desire that the Weekly
should cease to support him. but that
he failed to realize what effect a blunt
answer to question OF fact would
have upon sensitive and admiring
friend. This, it seems to Us, is the
more charitable interpreta ton. as 1t
more clearly accOrds with the state
ments in the correspondence. If it pre-
walls it will tend to place Mr.. Wilson
in public estimation in the category of
public men. like former Governor
Hughes, who are so earnest in the
statement of facts and the discussion
of public questions that they tend to
minimize the Importance Of personal
relationship in political affairs
In an article Of the same date of
Governor Wilson's candidacy the Out
look says: THE most talked about
and apparently the strongest Demo
cratic candidate is Governor Wilson of
New Jersey. intellectually DR.. Wilson
is called the best equipped Democratic
leader since Tilden's day. \ man like
Woodrow Wilson appeals to voters in
dependent of party, and we may re-
member that the independent voter is
growing in quantity and quality"

FINAL WORD FROM MIR. BRINSON

To the Voters of Marion County:
Owing to office duties that have to
be taken care of, | have not been able
to make a close canvass and there
will be numbers of you whom l shall
not have an opportunity to see.
I have no campaign manager nor
hired canvasSers
If you feel that the school interests
of the county would be best served by
retaining me in the office of super
intendent. I would heartily appre-
ciate your support.
With this l leave the matter in your
hands trusting your intelligence and
sense of justice to do the wise and
proper thing.
Very respectfully yours.

The explanation of the omission of
the names of Harmon and Clark from
the ballot has been made repeatedly
and is simplicity itself-they were not
placed on the ballot because neither
the gentlemen themselves nor any per
sons authorized to act for them re-
duested that they be placed thereon

This Is not an explanation but an
evasion. The executive committee pass
ed a resolution, directing that the
names of all the presidential candi-
dates should go on the ticket Mr.
Price had no right TO leave any Of
them on. and none of the friends Of
Harmon and Clark had any idea they
were going TO be left off until the
chairman announced the ticket had
been made up. Mr.. Price is an autocrat
of the Gear Reed brand, and il is past
time that he was deposed.

Congressman Sparkman's friends
want to know why Mr.. Phillips per-
sists in charging Mr.. Sparkman with
being an attorney for the Southern Elk
press Company when Mr.. Sparkman has
plainly and explicitly stated that he
is not. Mr.. Phillips should produce
his proof or cease making the charge.
1t is probable that Mr. Phillips would
be hard put to it if he had to prove
most of his charges against Mr.. Spark
man. 1t is easy to rattle off from the
stump a list of accusations against any
candidate, but the voters should de-
mand the proof with every statement.

| Franciscans, under the direction OF
Father Junipcro Serra-a name re-
vered in the Golden State.
The first step toward the coloniza-
ton of Alta California was taken
when Don Jose Galvez, tried and
trusted crown official, who had super.
intended the change of missionaries in
Lower California, received imperative
orders to occupy and fortify San
Diego and Monterey in the name Of
God and the king of Spain" Galvez
was full of enthusiasm, having good
sense, great executive ability, consid-
cradle foresight. untiring energy, and
decided contempt for all routine for
malities. He began his work with q
truly western vigor. To insure that
the spiritual part Of the work might
be as carefully planned as the poitl
cal, GalveZ fully discussed the whole
project with Father Serra--a man who
was to leave his powerful impress
upon the new country TO which he
journeyed with so rluch fiery zeal and
religious enthusiasm. Yet Sierra was
practical and possessed of a wide
clear vision and remarkable judg-
ment. His gift of preaching, his schol-
arly attachments, marked him for high
preferment in Europe. but he turned
willingly aside from the path of fame
and honor, and pleaded to be sent
where toll. and danger. and perhaps
a horrible death, awaited him. The
story of his life is part Of the early
history of the state, and his name is
still uttered as that OF one whose
achievements have made him immor.
tai. II have placed my faith in Cod,
and trust in his goodness to plant the
holy cross, not only in San Diego, but
even as far as Monterey" were the
memorable words of this sanity hero
when he planted the first cross in
American California, and his faith
was so amply rewarded that he had
sions before his death. The combina-
ton of fcrvor and enthusiasm. power
and sense, produced rapid results.
Most of the chain of missions. from
San Diego through Monterey 10 the
Golden Gate, were established in the
last 80 years Of the 18th century.
After the founding of San Diego, the
mission of San Carlos, near Monterey,
was founded in 1870: those of San
Gabriel and San Antonio in 1771: San
Luis Obispo in 1872; San Francisco
and San Juan Capistrano in 1776:
Santa Clara in 1777; San Buena Ven
tura in 11s2; Santa Barbara in 1876;
La Pursima Conception in 1877; La
Soledad in 1871; San Fernando, San
Miguel, San Juan Bautista, Santa Cruz
and San Jose in 1897; San Luis Rey
in 1898; Santa Inez in 1904; San
Rafael in 1917, and San Francisco So
lano in 1928. The last, established
at Sonoma, was the most northern.
and the only one founded under the
Mexican dominion.

preservation of the old missions and
