Building Roads.

The people are learning, even If it he
in crude way. For many years con-
victs in the south were put to work under
heavy guards and in the degrading
stripes, building public roads Colorado
is now building public roads on the honor
system. The convicts dress in citizen
clothes. are not under guard, and are
paroled. living almost as free men. They
are building roads cheaper than can he
done under the contract system. aud doing
it much better So far SO good. The
only fault lies in the fact that the state is
exploiting its unrortnnates The wives,
children and parents of these men are
robbed of that which should go to them
from the labor of those that are their
natural supporters The good feature is
that It calls attention to what can he done
by systematic effort If the men in the
army and navy who are doing nothing,
were paid as they are today, or perhaps
more, and put to work bnilding roads,
they could support themselves, do good,
and at the same time produce real value
for the people of America. -Ex

One of the most significant develop
ments of the present Presidential camp
align has been the large number of Re-
publicans of national prominence who
have sacrificed their party affiliations and
come out in support of Gov. Wilson's
candidacy. More than score of these
Republicans, all Of whom avow progress
sive principles, are to be found this fall
fighting in the ranks with the forces of
the New Jersey Governor. Their aliena-
ton from their old political kinsmen is
due in almost every instance to their con-
viction that the time has arrived when
they should put aside mere party fealty
for cause based on higher principles.
While ardent Republican at heart. they
find absolutely no inspiration in the
leadership of president Taft because OF
his generally admitted reactionary beliefs
and they have no sympathy for Col.
Roosevelt's third term movement. Gov.
Wilson. in this crisis. seemed to measure
up to their estimate as true progressive
and they decided TO cast their political
fortunes with his.

Col Roosevelt declared stonily there was
no moral obloquv in receiving contrihu-
tons from corporations in those days, es-
pecially as he hal given the corporations
warming that their money would not buy
exemption from penalties for evildoiug.
The Colonel asserted that the times had
changed. He fled on the credit for
having enacted by Congress a law during
his second term that prohibited corpora
tions from contributing TO National cam
paigns. There mad been an impression
that Senator Tillman. of South Carolina.
was the leading champion Of that meas
ure, and fought itthrough Congress in
the face of great opposition But Col.
Roosevelt says he (Roosevelt) was the
man
There has been great to do before the
committee ahont preconvention campaign
expenses in 1912. United States Senator
Jos M Dixon, of Mont ma, who was the
Colonel's campaign manager ard who is
the Chairman of the National Progressive
Campaign Committee, has been witness
before the subcommittee. He tore
around fiercel,, ''rough-housed' the
sub committee as it were, declined to an
swer questions, lectured Senators serving
upon the subcommittee, and made
scene generally. He accused the sub
committee of being very unfair and of
trying to throw the hooks into" the
Progressive campaign
This was holly resented by Senators of
the sub committee.

The prevailing quiet in politics is by
some ascribed to the matured convictions
of the voters They know already how
they propose to mark their ballots. There
has been discussion of men and issues for
the last six monis an little remains to be
said. The campaign managers naturally
refuse TO accept any such conclusions,
and are working overtime to create en-
thusiasm and make converts for their re-
spective candidates, but the fact remains,
nevertheless, that old General Apathy is
very much in evidence along political
lines.

The Political Campaign.

Only few more days of National poll
tics, it would seem. The candidates are
straining for the home stretch. The last
month of the contest is rapidly passing.
Do not think that three Presidential can
didates and three Vice Presidential can
didates constitute the galaxy
For instance, there are almost 400 Con-
gressional districts throughout the land.
There are at least two candidates to each
district. in many districts and in not few
four or FIVE. Election or defeat means
something to every one of these. The 40
or 40 Senatorial candidates whose for.
tunes will be settled by the November
voting should be mentioned. But in
many of the States there are fnll-fedged
tickets a6eld. candidates for the two
branches of the Legislature, to say moth.
ing Of the great numbers Of candidates
for County Offices.
There are at least 80 States which elect
Governors in 1912. and so it is that con.
siderable Gubernatorial group is involved
in the big political contests of the hour.
The diversion of the energies of this
large number of men to getting Office, ad.
ded to the energies OF great numbers of
friends who are working with might and
main for favorites. gives an explanation
why general political campaign in full
swing dulls the business activity of the
country.
In every locality almost are men more
concerned about their candidates for local
Offices than for those who would be
authorized to rule at Washington. And
yet the largest circle of interest has to do
with the candidates for occupying the
White House for four years. term
President Taft, the Republican nomi,

resolution not to engage in general
speaking is adhered to. and apparently
will be adhered to to the very end
