TF Champ Clark should face The
odore Roosevelt in this presi
Dental campaign, let no man
think that the Democratic speaker
of the house will be overmatched
by the president.
The opposite will be true.
Champ Clark is one of the very
best all-around campaign speak
ers that the country has ever
known. He has every equipment
for the magnificent figure which he
has always made upon the hust-
ings.
Let us reduce a sweeping asser-
ton to illustration.
I think that no man who has
kept in touch with senatorial and
political oratory in this decade will
deny that Jonathan p. Dolliver,
when he died, was easily counted
the best debater upon the Republl
can side of the United States SEN
ate, and one of the best, If not the
best, all-around campaign speak
ers on that side of the political
divide. He was everywhere in de-
mand.
In 1904 was lecturing in the
middle West and was in touch with
the movements of men and ideas in
that great section between Pitts
burg and Omaha.
During this period the sensations
of the summer chautauqua plat
forms and Of the political hastings
were the widely advertised Is
champion debates between Champ
Clark and Jonathan P. Dolliver
upon the tariff. These debates
reached high water mark in the
state of Iowa, where Dolliver was
the idol, and in Champ Clark's
state of Missouri.
On the morning after the great
clash of argument and eloquence in
Des Moines the morning newspa-
per, The Leader, Republican and Of
Delivers faith. edited by Allen
Dawson. now editor of The New
York Globe, had an editorial which
In substance declared:
There are few people in Iowa
who are willing to believe that
there is any greater orator and de-
batter than Jonathan P. Dolliver.
But one more such masterful
speech as Champ Clark made at
the capitol yesterday will reduce
Deliver to second place in his own
state of Iowa"
The sentiment was almost uni
versal throughout Republican Iowa
that Champ Clark, holding the un
popular side of the argument, had

have heard a dozen leading Re-
publicans say that it was true, and
I learned from one of these last
week that the debates were prema-
turely closed by Delivers friends
because of the apprehension that
the prestige of Clark's superb
work on the hustings would In
iuriously affect Delivers chances
in the approaching senatorial cleo
ton.
Champ Clark knows far moro
about the tariff than Roosevelt
does and more than almost any
other man in the house or senate.
He has held the aisle In front Of
the speakers desk for ten years
against all corners In an annual
speech on the tariff, and has never
yet been worsted by Payne or Dali
ze1l or Joe Cannon or Grosvenor.
at their best.
Champ Clark has much better
voice than Roosevelt, a far more
majestic and imposing presence,
fully as much fire and fervor as the
Oyster Bay man, and is better
posted upon the affairs Of legisla-
ton for the quarter century in
which we live.
The massive, rugged. magnifi-
cent-looking speaker has been so
tied to leadership and routine leg
fslation for a decade that many
men have forgotten the superb
swing and dash of the Missouri
giant when he is unlimbered for
battle before the people.
1t was Champ Clark's speech
nominating the staid and sober
Cockrell which created the widest
scene of enthusiasm that the Dem
ocratic national convention Of 1904
knew at ST Louis.

ing witness) which laid in the

If the Rough Rider Of American
politics enters the presidential
campaign with the idea that he has
anything forensic or oratorical or
vote winning on the Lion Of the
Tribe of Missouri he has a rude
awakening in store.
The presidential hastings win
find Champ Clark equal to its high

bound to it, as a general thing, by

The Director is the damper on

: Worship of Brains Z
Bv CHARLES FERGUSON.

rs 1t possible for a man to have
both a powerful mind and
mean soul?
If you say yes, beware lest you
disqualify yourself for any real un-s
derstanding of the prophets and
wise men who tell us that the world
is bound to be ruled at length by
generosity and heart power and
that the meek shall inherit the
earth" For what sense is there in
saying that love makes the world
90 round, and that truth makes
men free, IL smart rascals and liars
are forever to sit in the high
places, and if faithfulness to the
truth has nothing to do with real
force?
Perhaps there Is no more sense
less superstition than the prevalent
worship Of brains-mere cold cere-
bration. Moral chaos turks in the
notion that man can acquire a
titanic intellectual ability without
having any character or conscience
about the way he uses 1t. If that
were really the case. the hope of
the rule of justice and beauty upon
the earth would be infinitely post
poned.
If it we're not established in the
ground plan of the world that
moral meanness is related to men
tai weakness, the "knaves and das-
tards" would never be arrested"
OF course, it is obvious enough
that intelligent scoundrels have
now and again flourished in power
for a season. But why be per-
picked about that fact? Probably
they have fourished because the
mob of brain worshipers have
raised them upon their shoulders.
Modern experimental psychology
should put an end to brain worship.
For research in this field is bring
ing us every day nearer to an ex-
act demonstration that the intellect

grows out of the emotions, and that
the strongest intellects belong to
those who have the most ener-
getic feeling. Thus 1t appears that
men can go, in knowledge and un-
derstandlng, only to the limits of
their sympathy or working inter-
est.
Thomas DeQuincy says some
where that the intellect is the
meanest of all human faculties" It
was literary skit, Of course; but
the meaning was that the intellect
degenerates into trivial kind Of
cunning when it cuts itself loose
from the heart Of life.
The man who said that Francis
Bacon was "the wisest. brightest
meanest of mankind" was overload
of epigrams Wisdom and science
are In their very nature public. ex-
pansiye, of universal service.
One Is reminded Of such things
by an editorial in The Globe news
paper, which undertakes to explain
the qualities of Senator Root The
editorial writer says that Mr.. Root
has the best brain among all
President Tafts advisers" but that
he is a conservative by temper-
ament and self-interest- the
kind of temperament which per-
mits self-interest to tell his eve
what it shall see and what it shall
be blind to-"
Certainly, Francis Bacon-the "a
Their of inductive science-was not
like that; nor any other historic
man of intellectual weight and
scope in politics or religion, in art
or science.
If the description of Mr.. Root Ia
correct-if. Mr. Root generally sees
things only through the binding
bias of his personal interest and
yet has the best brain among all
President Taft's advisers"-it is
certain that Mr.. Taft is Ill advised.

glimmer of an idea of how to bet

1t is a truism that hope is, OF
itself, an inspiration and that the
limit of our achievement is our be-
lief in our own ability. Nobody
ever did anything worth while
that he or she went at faint heart

know this. and yet they can not
forego the pleasure of their raven

The queer thing about the Oh
jector is that he or she never has
any real principle behind his or her
objections, and if you had hap
pened to do the other way he or
she would have been just as much
opposed to that line of conduct.
PROBABLY Collectors don't even
know why they object themselves.
They are only animated by some
obscure and malevolent impulse
that makes them enjoy taking the

To my mind the sublime heroism
of which human nature is capable
is never more marvellously illus

which we endure the Objector. for

MYTH noiseless steps good goes its way

We hear the uproar, and It's said,
The world grows wicked every day.
i Is not true With quiet feet
In silence Virtue sows her seeds
While Sin goes shouting out his deeds
And echoes listen and repeat
But surely as the old world moves
And circles round the shining sum-
So surely does Gods purpose run,
And all the human race improves.
Despite bold evil noise and stir,

While Virtue scars on like star
