A. VI. Fellows For Senator.

The mention by the Mirror a few
weeks ago of the name OF A. M. Eel
lows of Lansing in connection with
the State Senatorship from the Fay
ette-Allamakee district, met with i'm
mediate endorsement, We are pleased
to say, and much favorable comment

toned. The Mirror is authorized at
this time by Mr.. Fellows to say that

"And They Kick, Too"

Pat was standing near the car
track when he noticed an automobile
coming up the street, and to be safe
he stepped back little from the car
track.
The auto went past, and, just as 1t
was passing the driver had an occa-
sion to turn off the track. When he
did, the auto skidded on the car
track, causing the back end Of it to
swing around, striking Pat and
knocking him down.
Pat was seen to get up and look
after the car and say. Nov p'hat do

Snow Bound i'm March.

What do you know about fierce
binding, drifting, road-blockine
snow storm on the Goth of March ?
The editor had the delightful expert
ence one week ago tonight of being
stuck in a snow drift about forty
miles this side of Des Moines, on a
Short Line train, from seven O'Clock
in the evening until nearly noon the
next day. Three other trains were
showed in not far from us. That's
winter for you.

KEANE'S REFER.
ENCE TO TAFT.

Cedar Rapids Republicans: Arch
bishop Keane almost made his audi
ence gasp Tuesday night when he
touched upon current politics. His
address had to do with social and
economic questions. AS thinker on
such subjects he carries ballast as
well as sails. He is not all subject
to the winds that blow, now out of
this quarter and then out of that
History and reason, as well as revela-
ton, have all taught him that what
ever problems of a social and econ
omic nature we have with us can not
be solved in day, nor over night by
some demagogic politician who wants
to put one more law upon the statute
books. He cautioned men not to be
in hurry, but to work patiently and
wisely upon them eco
1t was this line of reasoning that
brought out the political illusions
that created something of a sensa-
ton. He said that if he were a pro-
gressive and because he also was a
prudent progressive, he admired the
man in the white house, whose judi
cial mind has been brought wisely
to bear upon the problems of the
country. He said he held no polite
al affiliations and he owed allegiance
to no parties or men in politics, but
1t was because he was thus free to
think and free to do that III he had
the votes he would cast many for
William Howard Taft, because he
had been such prudent progressive.
One felt that the archbishop had
in mind the fact that the peace and
the prosperity of the country are be-
ing impaired by constant and almost
useless agitations, agitations which
are more shaped for the glory of this
or that politician than for the well
fare of the people, whom they pro-
fess SO loudly to serve. In a period
OF Mysteries and insanity, almost, he
must have felt the need of some one
with courage enough to speak the
word that may help to call people
back to their right minds. Sober
thinking, he seemed to feel, was at
the present time our greatest need.
And who shall render mankind a
greater service than he who has the
courage to tell the truth to the peo-
pie in an era of catering and of dem
agogism?
