WITNESS REFUSED
TO TAKE THE OATH

For the first time in nearly two
years, the clerk of the district court
was surprised by a demand to affirm
rather than to swear in a case on
trial before a district Judge. When the
defendant put D. H. Strange on the
stand yesterday afternoon to testify as
to the character and general reputation
Of Fred Rhodes, Mr.. Strange demanded
that he be allowed to affirm the truth
OF his testimony rather than to take
the usual oath.
Several witnesses have been on the
stand for the defense to prove the
reputation of Rhodes as to truth and
veracity. Among them were A. c.
Ellis, q patrolman under Mayor Fritch-
man; Jack Cody. th)e Friedman
building inspector: Jesse Sailor, night
watchman at the county Jail, and Jack
Robinson, bailiff of the district court.
Bert Breniger was also on the stand
to prove that Rhodes never bought
LIQUOR in the road house and that the
story he told the grand jury was true
when he said that he did not. The
state placed members Of the grand
jury on the stand to show what he
had stated before 1t while the investi-
cations of the alleged Illicit sale of
liquor was going on. The case went
to the jury this afternoon.

Governor Frear, on the. request
made yesterday by Consul General
Thomas Summons, of Yokohama, dur
ing that officials visit with the Terri
tOrial executive, will ask the people
of Hawaii to aid him in raising con-
tribution of $3.50 for the Hospital Of

The American-Asiatic Association

plete the wing for the lepers. Sam
mons says Miss Ridell has taken an
artive interest in Hawaiians in Japan

LIVING A LIFE.

''Life," declares writer of today
sis but one long farewell"
True! Think of it moment. Al.
ways farewells. Farewell to days and
months and years; farewell to youth
and prime and old age; farewell finally
to life itself.
Since this is so, how live; so that the
farewells may be free from regrets and
shames and the ashes Of remorse.
That. TOO, is simple. Live straight,
think straight, act straight. Do good
because it is the good; avoid evil be-
cause 1t is the evil.
So living, one may always say:
Farewell, happy hour, the thought of
you fills me with quiet joy; the dream
of you is grace and pension. May
all my hours to come be likewise may
have the strength and the honor and
the kindness to make them so."-Says

FEAR AIDS DISEASE.

Fear is at the bottom of most of our
troubles. We are afraid-afraid that
that we shall be sick, afraid that hard
times are coming, afraid that our coats
don't fit behind, afraid that it will
rain, afraid that it will not, afraid of
being struck by lightning, afraid of
our jobs.
We are afraid of something or other
most of the time. And most of the
time we are afraid without any reason
of being afraid. In a word, most of
our troubles don't exist, outside of our
own minds.
There is only one remedy for fear,
and that is courage. Folks who read
in the third reader of a generation ago
will remember the incident of Harry
and the guide post; how Harry thought
it was a ghost, and how, when he
braced and marched right up to it"
he found that it was only friendly
guide post.
Well. most of the things we are
afraid of are merely guide posts, OF
even less. The only way to put them
out of the bugbear business
is to march right up to them and tag
them. A bugbear or an incubus tagged
is tanned. Often it is destroyed ut
terly.
The doctors say now that a large
share of our physical ills are due to fear
that fear actually engenders poisons
in our bodies, and that these poisons
are rs real and as effective as though
they came from bottles with skull and
crossbone labels on them.
So much the more reason why we
shouldn't be afraid, for we poison our
selves when we are.
When you feel fear taking possession
of you, meet it squarely; show it up
for what it really is. If it is we'll
grounded, it's terrors will be lessened.
If it is unfounded it will be laughed
out of court. For no fear without any
foundation can stand the test of care
full inspection and of the laughter that
such inspection inspires.
If you can't shake off the fear wholly,
act as though you were not afraid any
how. That will go a long way toward
soaring the fear away-Springtield

The Joy of Lite.

The joy of life is not in ease,
It's not in skies forever blue,
In always calm untrouoIed seas,
Or simple tasks that all can do;
In duties that are common place,
The JOY of life is seldom found,
But in the driving, strenuous race
Where many obstacles abound.
The greatest joy of life is not
In luxuries that come unearned,
In any pleasures men have got
Without hand to labor turned,
But it's in risking failure, and
Attempting what would frighten
some,
In viewing, when ON top we md
The obstacles we've overcome.
Life's greatest joy is born of work,
OF ceasless days of toll and pain,
Of fearing where grave dangers lurk
And trying what the weak trim vain
In doing what is hard to do.
In mastering difficulties great.
In elm bling, for the broader view.
Against The obstacles of fate.

WHAT is THE POLITICAL
SITUATION?

Many politicians are watching the
papers of the country and have their
ears to the ground to learn if possible
what the voters intend to do in Nov.
ember. The political horizon is full OF
unusual conditions. Four years ago
Roosevelt wanted Taft to be president
and now he is doing all he can to pre-
vent him from winning in the race
for the White House. Roosevelt is so
much dissatisfied with Taft that he
proposes to enter the field himself and
may make the plunge. Many name S
expected on the Roosevelt call are
wanting. COne cannot find the signs a.
ture of Congressman William Kent of
California nor Governor Stubs of
Kansas nor Governor Deneen of Illi-
nois nor Governor Osborn CT Michigan
nor Senator Clapp of Minnesota nor
Senator Beverage of Indiana. When
the Chicago convention opened Henry
F. Cochems of Milwaukee was with
Governor / Nc Govern of Wisconsin
and his name isInow associated with

Thomass Taggart of Indiana has
resigned his place on the Democratic
National committee after twelve years
of service. Wilson is progressive.
Senator Nelson of Minnesota is
sending out letters..as ''feelers" to as
certain the stand the Roosevelt men
will take on his possible candidacy.
The Madison Journal, strong pro-
gressive Republican paper edited by
Richard Lloyd Jones, is for Woodrow
