cubic yards more earth TO be removed

his apparent backward movement is
explained by a large amount Of siltage

necessity for extensive excavation for

NEWSPAPERS.

Editing newspaper in some re-
spects is a good deal like preaching
the gospel-truth must be presented
in the form of generalities or some
fellow will get hit and howl. Few
persons like the truth, even the
homeopathic doses, if it hits them.
But while preachers criticise editors
for what they do say, no one thinks
of giving them credit for what they
do not say. Yet what they keep to
themselves constitutes the major por-
tion of what they know about people.
Very many people harbor the be-
lief that newspapers are eager to
publish derogatory things, It's a
mistake. There isn't a newspaper
that does not keep under the lock of
secrecy scores Of derogatory thiIgs
which never meet the public ear.
Deciding what not to print is the
most troublesome part of newspaper
work.
The many good stories suppressed
because of innocent relatives and for
the good of the public, nobody out
side of newspaper office has any
means of knowing.
In some instances he who flies
into a passion because a newspaper
prints something about him which
he considers uncomplimentary, has
every reason to feel profoundly
grateful to the newspaper for pub
fishing so little of what it knows
about him. And oftentimes the loud
est buffer is the most vulnerable to
attack A big noise is generally a
device employed to cover trepidation.
Newspapers put up with more
bluffing than any other agency
would endure. 1t is not because they
lack courage; it is because they are
unwilling TO use their power to de-
stroy or ruin, unless the interests Of
society demand it.
1t might be well for some people
10 reflect upon these truths and in
silent gratitude accept mild admoni-
tion lest worse befall.

LINCOLN AND JEFFERSON.

The convention which nominated
William H. Taft at Chicago Saturday
was in no sense a republican conven-
tion. 1t was organized in defiance
Of the wishes and principles of the
rank and file Of the republican party.
Its declaration of principles is out of
line with original republican princi-
pies. Theodore Roosevelt has done
exactly what Lincoln and Jefferson
did. When the Whig party failed to
stand for the principles that Lincoln
conceived as vital to the best inter-
ests of this nation he joined hands
with and helped to vitalize the new
republican party.
jefferson had a part in the or
ganization of three distinct political
parties. First it was the democratic
party. When he became convinced
that those opposed to the first prin-
ciples as enunciated by that party
had taken control of it's machinery
he organized the republican-demo-
cratic party. When in turn that Or
ganization went into the hands of
those not in sympathy with its pur-
poses he organized the new demo-
cratic party.
Jefferson and Lincoln stood for
well-defined principles, not for a
name. Instead of worshiping the in
stitution, they were sticklers for prin-
ciple, and they did not hesitate to
abandon the ship when they saw dan
gerous holes in its hulk.
The Tidings is in hearty sympathy
with the movement inaugurated by
the progressive element of the party.
The time is at hand when the MOTTO
Thou shalt not steal" should be
made a distinctive vital principle
in party organization and in admins
tration.
The sincere hope of the Tidings is
that the Parker element shall domi-
nate the Baltimore convention just
as the reactionary element of the re-
publican party dominated the Chi
cago convention, to the end that the
real progressives of the democratic
and republican parties may be forced
into a movement that will rpsult IN
the complete overthrow of the reac-
ticnary principles in government.
A government of the people, for
the people and by the people must
not perish from the earth.
Ashland tidings. [volume] (Ashland, Or.) 1876-1919, 1912-06-27
PURELY REACTIONARY.

The republican organization has
gone on record as opposing the ele-
mental principle that this is a gov
ernment by the people. The bosses
have triumphed in the organization
by theft. The party no longer repre-
sents great and vital principle of
government; it has degenerated to
an instrument through which special
privilege entrenches itself in an at
tempt to further suck the lifeblood
of the nation. 1t has struck a rock
and is rent asunder. One part of
the shin carries the name and Is
manned by a piratical crew floating
toward distinctions IN trying to APP
propriate all II has lost all. The
other part encompasses the substance
and is protected by the saving com
partments of principle. BY whatever
name 1t is known in future, it will
be commanded by true representa-
tives of the people, and will be truly
representative of the people in ad-
ministration as well as in declaration
So let it be.

REPUTATION.

Reputation is what people say
about man when he isn't in the i'm
mediate vicinity. Character is what
they say to him when he comes in
TO pay that little balance. 1t is
very easy thing to acquire reputa-
tion, as new styles are continually
being invented and tried On. Some
regulations are quite durable and
dog a man through protracted
meeting long after the court costs
have been paid. Others shift around
like a petit juror in tight boots and
change their location faster than the
early symptoms of appendicitis. A
man can acquire a reputation now
adays for almost anything except be-
ing a devoted husbadn or joining the
church without trying to stimulate
trade. The hardest reputation to
shake off is the kind which is manu-
factured by the neighbors, who are
usually very frank and anxious TO do
full justice to the subject. The man
who has been saddled with reputa-
tion which he would like to trade for
a good family COW doesn't gain any
thing by removing to the Pacific
coast, for when he dies the neighbors
will flavor the obituary with. the
pious hope that he had forethought
enough to take palm-leaf fan along.
1t is astonishing how a Judgment
proof reputation will chase a man
around the country until he can't
settle among total strangers without
having to pay the rent in advance.
On the other hand, a man with a
reputation which doesn't have to be
bolstered up with a lodge grip or
letter of recommendation from the
official board is never advised over
the telephone that a SO overdraft
would look better to the bank if it
was accompanied by some collateral
in the form of real money. A good
reputation is very handy article %
have in the safe when money is
harder to find than a high school
graduate who can spell the English
language twice alike in the same es-
say. 1t is harder to get than the
other kind, but it pays better rate
of interest in the long run.
