that the registrars register them.
Life long citizens sometimes object
to being reglsteredzon the ground
that they have lived in the county

The Liberal Man.

. So much has been said in these days
of political turmoil about the conser-
vatlves and the radicals that 1t should
be interesting to know what has be-
come of the liberal man. We know
who and what the conservatives are
because the radicals" have told us;
and we know what and who the rad
icals" are because the conservatives"
have told US. It does seem queer that
the entire voting population Of the
United States is to be classified as be-
ing either in the one extreme or the
other and that there is no high mid
die ground for him to stand upon who
does not desire to be classified with
either. The political sharps seem to
have overlooked something.
The liberal man is not altogether
a nonentity in this country. AS to who
he is, no better description can be
given than that by Goethe, who said
"the truly liberal nah employs all the
means in his power to do all the good
| he can; he does not rush in with fire
and sword to abolish imperfect!ons,
which are sometimes unavoidable; he
endeavors, by continuous progress, to
remove the ills of the body polite;
but he eschews violent measures,
which crush one evil but to create an
] other; in this imperfect world of ours,
he is content with the good, until
times and circumstances favor him
in his aspirations after the better"
If the terms noted arctic be ascribed
to political parties in this country,
IT might be we'll to examine the objects
of these parties to see how near they
and the terms will fit. The Bull Moose
party comes in for the popular desig-
nation of radicalness, yet the tariff
question, declared by the Democrats
to be the greatest issue of the day,
is to be solved by quite the same means
that have been followed by the Re-
Epublicans.a Still, on the other
hand, its furious and fustlan
leader wants to abolish executive sue
cession, courts. judges, judicial de-
cis:ons, laws and customs in reck-
less and revolutionary manner, thus
showing, in most respects. that he and
his followers are justly entitled to be
classified as radicals.
The Democrats are radical on the
tariff question but quite conservative
on everything else. They want the
tariff changed from top to bottom, from
A to lizard in order to prove their
contention that the American tariff is
responsible for the high cost of iiv-
ing in all the countries of the world.
But, give them the offices for which
they hunger and, aside from the tariff
Issue, they will be, as history has
proved, as conservative as It is pos
sible to be conservative.
Coming down, then, to the Republic
can party, we will find, upon careful
examination, thatIa large share of the
conservatism it is alleged to possess
has consisted of sIanderous attacks
from its opponents. Ifthe Republican
party were conservative it would not
have proposed new system of re-
adjusting the tariff, nor would it have
established postal savings banks, nor

Auto Truck Making Good

Manhattan Post: Manhattan is now
provided with freight transportation
facilities that are next best thing TO q
railroad. o. f. Wittenberg, of the
Wittenberg Warehouse and Transfer
Company, received his 5-ton Pierce-Ar-
row auto truck from San Francisco
about a week ago and made the first
trip from Tonopah to Manhattan last
Sunday with three tons of freight.
On account of the necessity of break
ing road for the truck, its track being
abont Is inches wider than the regular
auto road, the first trip consumed
twelve hours, but the truck is now max
ing almost daily round trips. the time
on the load with five tons being between
five and six hours. The freight truck
will be a great convenience for the mer-
chants and mining men of Manhattan,
as it will bring perishable and emer-
gency supplies over from Tonopah in
a few hours, instead of having to bring
