POLlTICU

Politics; noun, masculine gender.
If honest it is singular; and if
crooked, plural and plentiful. Poll
tics is like a mud puddle-it is awful
" hard to get in it without getting
dirty There are honest politics and
Lrimer politics; and if suffragettes
have their way we will soon have lady
politics. A man has to be reasonable
to be good politician; for the good
politician will always listen to the
voice of reason when she makes a
noise like the jingle of filthy lucre
Now, don't misunderstood me, not
all politicians are crooked, the de-
ponds entirely on the investigating
committee. 1t has been proven con-
clusively that a man can spend $110,-
GOO getting to be an United States
senator, and still be honest. Howev-
er, | wouldn't advise anybody to try
it: that is higher mathematics. and
requires education There are a lot
Of promising politicians; always
promising. One of the first requis-
ties of high class politician is a
poor memory; to be unable to recol-
lect how you came to have a ST., 900
residence and a $4,000 bank account
after holding $4,000 office for two
years. Some politicians are crooked.
and some are strictly honest; but the
limit comes when a legislator gets
money from both sides and then re-
fuses to vote.-Burt E. May, in Pen
sacola Journal.

This weeks celebration of the COM
pletion of the first of the five great
canals in the system for the drainage
of the Everglades marks the progress
of a plan that is to add to the rlcn
agricultural territory of Florida an
area greater than the land area OF
MARYLAND. The canals, which are be-
ing dredged by the Furst-Clark Con-
struction Company of Baltimore, are
to be so feet wide and 10 feet deep,
extending from Okeechobee to tide
water. The lake has mean eleva-
ton of about 20 feet above the sea
level, and the plan of drainage now
under way is expected to lower the
level of the lake four feet. The ca
nails. which will be provided with
locks at proper intervals will afford
transportation for boats or barges Y
feet wide and 50 feet long, drawing
three and one-half feet of water The
aggregate length of the five canals
will be 23S miles, and their construc-
ton involves the excavation of 49,
100000 cubic yards of earth and o.
600, 900 cubic yards of rock. The
drainage will become effective upon
the completion of the canals, set for
July /, 1918. At that time Lake Okee-
chobee will have storage capacity
of one-half million acres three feet
deep, and by the system of canals and
locks it is planned to utilize the wa
ter in dry seasons for irrigation of
the reclaimed lands, if necessary.
This is one of the largest of the
many projects for the reclamation OF
the wet lands now Under way in the
south, and it's completion will give an
impetus to the development of Flor
ida greater, perhaps, than any other
it has received in recent years.-Bal-

SPEED

Draper, III his intellectual Devel-
opment of Europe" says: Empires
are only sand hills in the hour-glass
of time" and the running of the sand
for a quarter of a century is swifter
than a watch in the night.
Sometimes it runs red with blood
sometimes it runs golden with the
harvests of peace, sometimes it is
stagnant with doubt as if humanity
were pausing which way to go, and
sometimes it is electric, charged with
the spirit of unrest and change, but
always it is the seed-bed and the
graveyard of mankind. and always
the sand runs on, and the old order is
always passing away
The occupant of the spot light
plays his part and moves off the
stage. The political faker of today
becomes the laughing stock of to-
morrow and a hay memory next
week.
Across the stage pass kings, con
querers, law-givers, saints, harlequins,
and testers, in pomp or squalor, in
ephemeral triumphs or desperate re-
verses, and always the sand runs on.
The period since 1898 has been
period Of swift and feyerish evolution
from what Carlyle called a gross
steam-engine civilization" into an
electric civilization.
No one is willing to take 40 years
or ever 40 days now in trying TO
reach any kind of a promised land,
but everybody wants to go by express
in Pullman car.
We live in an age of hurry and
congestion. We hardly get out eyes
fixed on the moving picture before
the moving slide has slid on.
In 80 minutes now, measuring life
by its experiences and not by length
of years, man lives longer, sees
more, hears more, and gets more in
digestion and nervous prostration
than old Methuselah did in all his
stagnant years.
We do not want contentment and
satisfaction. If we have them we
want something else. We want SEN
sation.
And if We have a president who is
going steadily along his unadvertised
way, every day doing something sub
stantial, the political gallery gods are
dissatisfied, because they want him
to smash something so they can hear
it jingle.-Extract from Speech of
Edw l.. Hamilton of Michigan.
