results are all right. And he gets more
attention from the politicians in year
than I'd get in thousand years.
when the Napoleons of politics are
making up their lists and come to my
name they know they can bank on what
I'm going to do. That old FOSSIL they
say, would vote the republican ticket II
we nominated a crocodile, and so we don't
come to Ganderson they say: There's no
telling how George fs going to conduct
himself this year. We simply must have
him with us. SO send around q delegation

pleasure for him!
las consequence. Ganderson is petted
and pampered like a prize heifer at q
county fair. and all 1 get out Of 1t is an
occasional assurance that I'm sheet
anchor Of the party. or a beacon on the
height. or something like that.
Aside from all that. ! don't see why q
man should be abused for changing his
mind as often as he wants to. I'm SO
politics. but I admire the man who can.
Many a time I've gone to the polls and
voted Tor man who gave me the cele-
brated tired feeling. just because he be-
lonEed to my party. man who does
that sort Of thing is worse enemy to
good government than the one who votes
on the go-as-you-please plan. / have
realized that long time. and have de-
termlned upon many occasions to break
loose from party ties and vote for the
best man. but on election day I always
weakened.
LAS I approached the polls I'd hear
people saying: Here comes the grand Old
wheelhorse. the unterrified beacon on the
height. to support the party Of Abraham
Lincoln and Richard BalIinger.' Then I'd
feel that 1t would be q crime to go back
on my record. and I'd vote the same old
way, and be sorry for it afterward.
THE man who switches around and
votes for one party one year and another
party the next shows that he has some
originality, some Initiative. He not only
furnishes fun for himself. but he makes
the whole game interesting. II we all
voted the same way, year after year, a
presidential campaign would soon be as
tedious as a quilting bee.
The go-as-you-please voter Is becoming
more numerous and more aggressive all
the time, and, as g. consequence, politics
becomes more like Fourth Of July cele-
bration."

Managers Depend Upon Patriotic

APPEAL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS
Variety of Events Planned for Safe

The safe and sane" committee of the
District of Columbia, which is arranging
the program for Thursdays independence
day celebration. is about 500 short of the
amount that will be needed for defraying
expenses. Although the committee has
spent several weeks planning in an effort
to hold expenditures to minimum and
has arranged a program which promises
to make the celebration of the Fourth
this year a memorable one, contributions
by the public to the expense fund have
not been received as rapidly as was ex-

It is not likely that the committee
will alter the program adopted because
Of the threatened lack of funds. as the
members are Of the opinion that Wash
ingtonians who have been appealed to for
donations will not fail to contribute to
the worthy and patriotic cause. To
date only 173 responses have been re-
ceived from appeals sent by letter to

celebration date is four days off, it is
believed there will be number of ad-

Hope of the Committee.
Commissioner Rudolph, who is chair
man Of the safe and sane committee
with the other members of that body
is particularly anxious that this year $
celebration shall maintain the District
unusual record in the matter of acct
dents since the adoption of the regu-
lation preventing the use Of fireworks
in Independence day celebrations.
In 1908. before the adoption of the reg
ulation, 1O4 persons were treated in
Washington hospitals for injuries received
from explosives July A. In 1909, 1910 and
last year, when fireworks were barred,
no persons were treated in the local hos
pitfalls for INJURIES of this nature.
Statistics compiled by the committee
show that in 1909 there We're 215 deaths
in other cities from explosives used on
July 4. Last year the safe and sane
celebration movement had grown to such
an extent that but fifty-seven deaths
were reported. against 466 in 1903, and
but 1,6O3 accidents, against $500 in 1908.
While the day Of powder burned and
manned Fourth of July hospital pa

concerned, the committee has ar
ranged program which should arouse
patriotism. Four bands will furnish

to the gayety of the occasion, while

he was populist, and then a prohibition

voted the republican ticket ever since the
grand old party was copyrighted, and
often think 1 have been a chump for
doing it, but it's grown to be habit with
me, and suppose I'll go ahead voting the
same chestnutty way until this poor lisp
ing, stammering tongue lies silent in the
grave.
Sometimes when I go to a political
meeting they call upon me for q few re-
marks, and the chairman introduces me
as one who has voted the republican
ticket ever since the dawn of history,
and he calls me old Ironsides. or some
thing like that. and l swell UP with pride

pass the pie to some chap who voted the

Endowment Fund Suggested.

The credit section Of the Bank Of the
Republic will lend from its endowment
fund money to various rural banks, or
farmers associations. where banks do
not exist. which. in turn. will lend the
money to the farmers on land mortgages.
Inasmuch as large part Of this money
loaned for farm improvements will be
spent in the purchase Of agricultural ma
chinery. Minister Grevstad sees an open
ing created for American agricultural
Of the farmers credit system. It is pro-
posed that the Uruguayan farmers shall
buy the farm machinery on a cooperative
basis. which would permit them to buy
the most expensive and most modern ag-
ricultural machinery.

PRESIDENT Of URUGUAY
AIDS SMALL FARMERS
Recommends Central Bank
With Credit System and
Endowment Fund.

American Minister Grevstad has re-
ported to the State Department the de-
tails of farmers credit system recently
recommended by the President of Uru-
quay to the general assembly of that re-
public.
Up to the present time the republic of
Uruguay has been distinctly a stock
raising country, cattle, hides and dried
meats having been her exports This con-
dition has naturally tended toward the
segregation of land into tracts, and its
ownership by big "estancieros'' or ranch
men,
Benefit Of Farmers.
1t is the desire Of the UrugIayan gov.
eminent to foster the small farmer. in
in order to give the republic substantial
agricultural class. and, as in the case of
this country in the present effort Of Pres
ident Taft to secure cheaper money for
the American farmer, the President Of
Uruguay has turned to the European
farmers credit system for a means of en-
couraging the establishment of small
farms.
The credit system there recommended
provides for the creation OF a section
of rural credit in the Bank Of the Re-
Uruguay. This section OF the central
bank is to be endowed with an initial
capital of 100000, and to it is to be
intrusted the work Of forming farmers
associations, through which the small
agriculturists are to secure money at
their farms and the adoption Of methods
Of intensive farming.

It Is Proof of
Our Feeble Progress.

1t shows how comparatively fee
BILE is the progress we have as yet
made in our intellectual develop
ment, that we can consent, at so
slight an incentive, to resign our
prerogative of self-control. throw
ourselves upon all-fours and run
with the herd. People are not to be
criticised for thinking alike. pro
vided only such unanimity is not
due to their not having thought at
all, but TO their having let some
one think for them. or to their hav-
ing so allowed themselves to be
fiattened out under some hypnotic
touch or bewildered by some in
calculable infatuation as to throw
their individual powers of thought
and decision out of commission.
In the presence of such condi-
tons argument is as much waste
Of time as though thrown in the
faces Of the bewitched and bcdov-
lied swine that Scripture relates to
have rushed down a steep place
into the sea.

The Mob---A Crowd
IhatH las Been Hypno-
tied Into Losing Its
Reason andConscience.
Written For The Georgian
By the Rev. DR.. c. H. Parkhurst

XK7HEN lot of people be
w come massed together un-
der the influence of some
mind that hypnotizes them or some
idea that influences them, the con-
dition of each separate member of
the crowd becomes reyolutionized.
Each ceases to be a distinct in
diyidual and becomes simply
piece Of the mass, like a bee lost
i'm the swarm. like a sheep merged
in the flock with no separate idea
Of his own, no moral perception
that is his own special property,
and swept forward by an impulse
that works in him with the
thoughtless push of blind instinct.
This is what we mean by MOB,
which is the name we give to a
crowd that has been hypnotiZed to
the loss of its reason and the sus-
pension Of its conscience. This
tendency to relapse into the gre
gauous condition of the mere ami
NAL and to go buzzing with the
bees or bleating with the herd, is
limited to no age OF the world and
