! ture, who by party connections and y
general character, ought to vote for MIR.
I B but he let's one or more Of Mr.. AS
friends know that he is for sale and
that his vote will elect Mr.. A, il he gets
! his price.
j The price may. be some lucrative Off
cial appointment; it may be the support
OF the new senator for some special biz,
it may be for cash.
Now, it becomes question with Mr..
A. whether be shall pay the price asked
and be elected, or shall he Indignantly
refuse and then stay at home, and con-
sequently ects bad man to the senate
in his place.
You see that in such case Mr.. A
is compelled to do wrong, no matter
what decision he comes to. He mu. t
either buy a bad man to do good
deed, or else he must permit bad man
to be elected who will perhaps do
great deal of harm.
Now suppose for moment that you
were Mr. A. what would you do? OF
course you would spurn the bribe. giving
and let your bad opponent be elected.
Bribery is crime and you are no Grim
inal. But it also seems pretty near
ly criminal to let the bad man take
your place. doesn't it?
We don't know whether this came up
to Mr.. Lorimer to decide in his cam
paign or not. but we do know that some.
thing similar to this comes to nearly ev-
cry candidate for Office, high or low. If
you don't want to meet such a dilema
better keep out Of politics. 1t is easy
to decide what you would do-if you are
out Of politics.
But if you do enter politics as can.
didate, you will soon discover that your
chances for success are mighty slim il
you refuse the support Of the "bad" peo-
pie. No man was ever elected to an I'M.
portant office solely by the votes Of the

AVIATION

Is aviation success? Well it de.
pends on the point Of view. It depends
on what may be considered success.
That man can and does construct ma
chimes that will fy is certain, but that
in itself does not mean full success. In
order to be success it must be practi.
cal and to be practical it must be more
than mere toy.
For instance, two wonderful inven.
tions were made about the same time,
the telephone and the gramaphone. AS
mere inventions one was as great and
remarkable as the other. At the time
they were apparently of equal value, but
today, while the gramaphone has some
uses and is OF some value, yet the world
could spsre it without much loss, bu,
the telephone has become almos; an ab-
solute necessity.
That flying in the air will ever become
universal like say the auto mobile on the
earth, has been practically proven to be
beyond the present powers Of man. II
is barely possible that in the dist ant
future some invention may be made
that will addsthe element Of compara-
tive safety to the aerial flights, but as
yet the altogether too common catastru-
phes Of the airmen prove the contrary.
For several Thousand years men have
been failing the waters but even today
the sailing boat, large Or small. must be
handled by an expert and often then
comes accident. AS compared with
water sir is far more unsta ble, and has
snaly elements Of danger Of which tie
Airlnan must take account, bur which
the sailor do . mol meet B IL II M 9 ma

LoRIMER

Senator L0rimer was voted out of the
Senate last week after two years agita.
tion and trial before two different in-
vestigating committees.
AS we understand the decision of the
senators, he was not thrown out be.
cause be had personally bribed anybody
to vote for him but because there was
sufficient bribery in the Illinois legisla.
ture that his election was not valid.
We do not know enough personally to
Sit in judgment on this case. But We
do know that large number Of people
havs sat in judgement who know no
more about 1t than We do.
We only know that there has been a
division Of sentiment. first in the CON-
mittees that investigated and that in
both cases the majority Of the two COM
mittees we're not in favor Of impeacl,-
msnt. These men heard the testimony
and had the opportunity Of seeing the
witnesses and to Judge Of the credibility
Of the witnesses by their appearance
and by their. apparent candor. The sen
ate as whole did not have this oppor.
tunity, and the first time said that Lori
mer was not guilty and the second time,
more than a year afterwards. pronounc.
ed HIM guilty.
Personally we have no opinion as to
his guilt or Innocence as We said above,
about tue only thing OF which we are
certain was specifically proven. was that
MIR. Lorimer was ia rather had co, ,npany,
that is, he received the support and
votes Of some confessed bribe takers.
However, we are not attempting to
either condemn or acquit HIM. But we
want to call attention to some phases of
politics and political methods that
make the paths Of the professional poli-
tiuan rather crooked and dark.
For instance, here arc three men. Mr..

Treubadours Versus Picked Nine.


A picked nine defeated the Troub-
adours at the fair grounds on Sunday
the score was II to S. The Trouba-
dours started strong in the first in
ming, scoring two runs. 1t took the
picked nine some time to work the
kinks out of their joints, but as soon
as they began to timber up things
took on a different aspect, and when
with two men on the mighty f'fence
buster,'' Jay Berg drove out clean
two-base hit, scoring two runs, the
picked nine knew that the crisis
had passed. From then on it was a
one-sided game. Despite the big
score the game was an interesting
one. When excitement laxed the
first baseman of the picked nine
usually brought up some question
that caused animated discussion.
Stay and Angstman did the bat
terry work for the Troubadours,
while Fullwiler and Moe performed
the heavy labor for the picked aggre-
cation. The features Of the game
were the hitting of Berg and the
throwing Of Moe.

TWO BALL GAMES.
Milaca High School Defeats Princeton

0AN AAVUO0UOuIS AOSe NOuleSt.
The local high school team was de-
faeted by the Milaca high school on
the diamond of the latter last Satur-
day by score of to II. The game
was one-sided, Milaca taking the
lead from the start and holding it..
The Milaca team played consistently
and their hitting and fielding ability
was the feature of the game
throughout. At times the Prince
ton boys showed sparks of real base
ball, but each time these quickly
died out again. Had Princeton
played as good ball as upon the oc-
casion when the fast Cambridge
team was defeated the result, un-
doubtedly, would have been different.
Although the boys did not 90

The hardest test is the test of

stood it we'll in Princeton. Kidney
sufferers can hardly ask for stronger
proof than the following:
Mrs. S. Harrington, Princeton.
Minn., says: "About two years ago
my kidneys began to act sluggishly.
My back panied me almost constantly
and my head never ceased to ache. I
did not rest well, had a poor appetite
and was nervous. My mother finally
got a box of Doan's Kidney Pills for
me and after using them short
time, I was entirely relieved. -

Mrs. harrington was interviewed
