SECOND PLACE

Is this great state to have no lieu
tenant governor next year?
Two years ago the one real fight
was for the second place.
Have you politicians all grown into
first-class cusses. too proud and
naughty to play second fiddle?
It's the same old senate? Ger
tainly, but it is senate that may do
anything or nothing. 1t is so split
up that no one knows what it will do
and the senate has the least informa-
ton on this point of any one.
The senate needs leader.
Can't someone be found to accept
this important post, that is someone
really big enough for the job?
If the house is built of the stuff
conditions indicate the senate will be
obliged to do business. Then the
lieutenant governor will be some
smoke in this state.
Do you want the job and do you
consider yourself big enough for it?
Then go after it. The people will
mighty soon pass judgment upon
you.

GOSSIP OF TIE PRESS

President Taft so far has lost every
state where the rank and file of his
party have had chance to express
their choice. Regardless of section,
from Oregon to Pennsylvania and
from North Dakota to Illinois and
Nebraska the primary election states
have rejected the president and
strongly favored either Roosevelt or
LaFollette. 1t is still possible for
the convention states to nominate
Taft. Probably the bosses who con-
troll the conventions in these states
will. find it possible to herd into the
Chicago convention enough delegates
to nominate him. But the way the
people have voted wherever they have
had a chance to express their opinion
Of the Taft administration hasn't of
fered much encouragement to those
who are minded to give him the
nomination. 1t is very improbable,
therefore, that he will get it.-Du-
luth Herald.
There IS a movement on foot in the
East on the part of the progressives

honesty.-Fairmont Sentinel.

there are several big tax dodgers in

to the burden of the settlers and
acting as a deterrent to those who
like our lands and the outlook, but
do not care to take chances with the

help US amazingly if it would, and
there is machinery that could grind

IF there is law demanded by the
people, known by them to be right
and just and which works well, say
two cent passenger rate, what
right has any paper written in the
second century back to put this new
law in the discards?
You may praise the men who
wrote and signed the constitution as
highly as you please and we will go
with you praise for praise. But when
all is said you must admit that no
assembly of men in the eighteenth
century could successfully legislate
for the twentieth century. You
must admit that there have been
more crimes committed in the name
Of the constitution than against it..
You must admit that the dead hand
makes poor master and the real,
live man is looking for living, vital
up-to-date legislation.

SHADOWS

You have but one way of measur-
ing the brightness of the sun: By
the intensity of the shadow.
Strange is it not, that do what you
will you cannot get away from the
shadow? Though you set your face
to the east and food your soul and
your heart with the carmen rays of
the breaking day you cannot escape
the consciousness of the shadow that
lies at your back. 1t is as Carlyle
said: Eyer there is black spot in
the midst of your sunlight: it is the
shadow of your self"
In the pearl gray evening or the
ruby morning you dream dreams and
your mind is fired with high imagin-
ings. At stride you are at the
center Of the universe whence you
behold the progress of the spheres,
the birth of mighty suns, the de-
struction of worlds, the fierce, fiery
creation of planets and the alluring
light that never was on sea or land.
You hear the essence of all music,
the matchless over tone of existence.
Compromising the Infinite you deem
yourself infinite and you know you
are as much the creator as the
created.
In the midst discord. in the midst
a black spot: Yourself.

YOU ARE THE CONSTITUTION

SON"
Poor old John Burroughs! What
the devil does it matter, this consti-
tuition?
But you say its sacred, it's an in
strument framed by our ancestors,
it's the guarantee of equal rights,
the insignia of liberty. With it we
stand. without it we go to place
generally believed to be extremely
hot.
Let US hasten to admit that we
are ardent admirers OF the constltu-
ton as we believe John Burroughs
also is.
Admiration need not. mean blind
idolatry.
There is something higher than
the constitution: The People.
The constitution was made for the
People not the People for the consti-
tuition.
If this instrument stands in the
way of rights, of personal liberty,
of individual and national growth,
then put it aside.

Official Paper of Redwood County
THE BRIDGE OF BABEL

They buflded Bridge of Babel,
OF wood and of steel and gold,
And they fashioned its sides by the
surging tides,
Fashioned it full of their pomps and
prides.
Sturdy and stanch and bold.
They wrought it with beam and cable,
Girded its stanchions fast.
And the graybeards said that Fear
was dead,
That the sea was stripped of its an
cient dread,
That the waves were chained at last!
And Neptune laughed in his coral cave,
For the fog is tomb, and the sea is a
grave!
They launched them the Bridge of Babel,
And they Knocked at the wrestling deep
And they raced the wind till it fell
behind,
And they slept and woke and they
played and dined-
Till the sea was ripe to reap.
And then, in cerements sable,
mist came out of the night,
And the sea made claim of its
trembling game,
And all that it lett was sob and a name
And the combers breaking white.
And Neptune laughed in his coral cave,
For the fog is tomb, and the sea is a

human throng and the thoughts of
your own mind. They are the things
that should inspire. Mark this:
If the ugly in thought or deed
mars your life it but emphasizes
your capabilities for great things.
The fact that man can sin proves his
ability to attain purity just as death
proves immortality. The atrocious-
ly finite is possible only because of
the sublime infinite, exactly as the
shadow establishes the existence of a
sun.
Be thankful for shadows. They
mark the highway into the glory of
a nightless day where the somber
shades are for ever and ever lying
at your back. no longer dimming the
path your feet seek to climb.

Why have the Taft managers post
poned the Ohio primaries to the last
week in May? Ohio is the Presi-
dents home state. Naturally it
would be expected to get in early
with It's Endorsement.
There was no such delay four years
ago when Mr.. Taft was the acandi-
date. There was none in 1896 when
Mckinley was running.
Why doesn't the President wish TO
