 Next to Wilson as a choice for the presidential nomination is Governor Harmon of Ohio, whose politics are more conservative than Wilson's but who nevertheless has a fine rec ord as an executive, and whose Iabors for equalization of taxation in the state of Ohio represent a gigantic task brought we'll toward completion.
 The Democratic party Is more har- monious than it has been in many years. It is capable of strong and consistent action for the public well fare, as the Democratic Congress has proved. If entrusted with the gov ernment of the country 1t will give a good account of itself.
 There is need of a general house cleaning. It Is not good for the same men to be in power too many years. Long lease of power breeds corruption and inefficIency, produces extravagance and a. scale of display and expenditure inconsistent with the ideals of Republic.

THE LURKING DANGER.

The extent of the typhoid epidemic in TorrinGton may be measured by the petition for a borough meeting to appropriate for the payment of the bills incurred in the treatment of the sick. The epidemic took on the nature of a public catastrophe Had the same number of deaths been oc- casioned by cyclone. earthquake, fire, an explosion of mine, or in rail- road wreck, the facts would have beeeu vastly more dramatic in their presentation to the state. Offers of assistance would have come to the borough fsSF all sides. The human mind in tll6 regate seems to have little us41at 4r perceiving injur- ses thsa E Firectly.

SOME GRATITUDE LEFT.

The Republican convention at Roanoke today
will probably do the obvious thing and endorse
the Taft administration. despite faction which
at one time was SO far stampeded by political
shooting up Of the town as to let out a few
sympathetic whoops.
This is all as it foreordaned. and as it
should be- no doubt We have nothing except
a selfish interest in wishing IL otherwise. How
ever il Senator Dixon had only succeeded in
committing Virginia Republicans to presiden-
tiaI primary. the proceedings would have been
a Joy forever
Imagine Republican primary In any one of
the Southern States. where the rank and file are
the ofhceholders and scarcely anyone else, and
creetly aside while the manifest found realza-
ton Not even Roosevelt could give fire to such
a corpse Of representative action. For referen-
dunn to the ofaceholders could have but the one
result Of referring itself back to the source and
reason Of the existence of the balloters.
However, the Roanoke convention may con-
sole itself with the thought that, while it does
not represent very much. 1t represents It hard:
and that It's action will be hailed in Washing
ton az an evidence that the desertion of Pythias
does not mean lack OF gratitude in the whole
cornfed army.

Questioned az to why his better half fed his
nreside, Mr.. Hirsch could give no reason except
that he brought to the family circle degree Of
morality which got on his wife's nerves. Ac-
cording to his sworn testimony, he put no
restraints about his spouse. He furnished her
with every luxury which his means could afford.
He was never jealous. Not an unkind word
ever passed his lips He was unadicted to the
use either of tobacco or liquors. Supper time
found him vending his dutiful way to the COM
mon domicie. Above ALL never did he criti-

Didn't she ever find fault?" asked the court.
Yes Hirsch replied she frequently said
she could have loved me, II only beat her.
or at least scolded her once In a while"
There you have It, Hirsch was model His
mind was of that character which is confined
to an example. whether 1t be a lay figure In
clothier's window or woodcut In a popular
history. He never did any OF the things that
make humanity SO dear through its weaknesses.
He never permitted the wife Of his bosom the
womanly privilege Of forgiving him. He
brought to a relation that is In all conscience
subject to the contagion of deadly ennui an
even more deadly sameness of virtue. When
Mrs. Hrsch cried out to be beaten or scolded
Or somethng-she voiced what every woman
has deep In her system, and has had since
time commenced to AFFORD the eternal conflict
between the sexes. She plead for something
different In the detail of life. She demanded
an interest, even If 1t should turn out the in
terest OF blows She wanted with her whole
heart, a man. instead Of q manikin.
OF course few women have the excuse which
Mrs. Hirsch had. The average man has az
many faults as whiskers Sometimes, he does
not shave the one the other with sufficient
frequency. But even at that he has better
chance TO attain the high ideal which every
man secretly cherfshes OF making some women
happy, II even against the pain Of an ingrow-
ing virtue he occasionally lends himself to
venial sin in the interest Of humane variety

CURRENT COMMENT


The Jordan bill, known as the enabling act
and sometimes described as the Statewide
measure, badly defeated In the Senate on
Saturday.
The most of the senator's who voted against
submission represent dry constituencies. II TINS
quite as much as with the senators. who. on
Saturday. voted to misrepresent them for having
the power to elect men who would vote in
accordance with their wishes, and having failed
to elect them they did not measure up to their
responsibility privilege. The most OF these
arguments and influences which controls them
in 1912 will be in existence in 1914. the chances
are that renewal OF the fight two years hence
will be in the face OF certain defeat OF course

timent when the senators have conferred face

come nearer to election day.
There wonderful good sense in the cam
paign methods Of the wet men. They did less
talking. probably, but they knew more about
concentration. and they concentrated. They did
not bother their heads about the hundred men
in the House. knowing that II they could get
twenty-one. in the Senate. twenty-one senators
voting against submission would beat one nun
bred members Of the House plus nineteen MEM
bers of the Senate. In other words. twenty
one votes in the Legislature against the Jordan
bill could beat hundred and nineteen votes
in favor OF that measure.
The faint of unconstitutionality urged
against the measure with virtuous insistence. To
pass measure that suspected OF uncon-
stitutionality, when 1t concerns the liquor traf-
hc in Virginia. was simply preposterous Were
these servants of the people dogs that they
should do this thing? We admire the taking
Of high ground. and the maintenance OF great
virtue by sacrifice or otherwise. and yet We
have little feeling THAT the argusnsnt that 4
measure is unconstitutional when the reasoning
lie sound should prevail against other measures
In like deadly way. 1t did not weigh an
ounce against the submission Of the city treas

mission was undoubtedly unconstitutional but
