The newspaper editor who is
eternally singing his own praise, is
not the one to tie to. Some newspa-
pers are continually telling their
readers that this paper always
tells the truth, that 1t stands at all
times for principle, that it always
supports the best men for Office,
that its editor has no favors to ask. "
When newspaper comes UP to that
standard it is hardly necessary for
it to publish the fact every week.

Gov. Carroll is going into the
newspaper business upon his retiracy
from the governorship, having pur-
chased an interest in the Register and
Farmer. Mr.. Carroll is an old news
paper man, and good one, and the
Freeman Tribune is glad that he is
to get back into the harness. He
ought to stay there. In fact, he new
er should have left the editorial
rooms. Too many newspaper men
permit the itch for Office to distract
them and take them into lines for
which they are not fitted.
BY the appointment of Governor
Carroll, served five months in the
United States senate. I asked the
general assembly for primary cleo
ton to determine the senatorship
and the general assembly in its wis
dom declined to grant such special
primary.-Lafe Young.
Mr.. Young had no thought of
"leaving it to a primary when the
governor had power to appoint. At
that time he was in favor of the one
man power. After it had developed
that the legislature would not elect
Mr.. Young he became active for q
primary and not before. The colon
ell fails to tell that part Of the story.
Since the convention call OF the
county central committee and the
caucus calls of the township commit
lteemen have been published it has
been demonstrated that the repub-
licans of Hamilton county much
prefer the primary to the caucus.
They now know what both plans
are and the fact that they prefer
the primary method is good GER
tificate of character for that meth
cd. The Freeman Tribune would
like to see all delegates. all candf-
dates-from president to road sup
ervisor- selected at primaries. This
includes postmasters, United States
district marshals, mail carriers and
every other incumbent of a public
Office.

And now they are saying that
Dan of the Herald is casting Sleeps
eyes at the postofice and hoping
that lightning may strike the asso-
ciate editor In the event of demo-
cratic success next November. while
Tuck is getting the fever harder
and fercer every day. It beats
all how the of1ce-seeking microbe
gets its claws into verdant editorial
material.

topic of third term for presidents,
quotes Washington as follows IN q

The jury in the beef trust case,
composed of twelve men good and

deliberation that the packers were
not guilty of violating the pro-
visions of the Sherman antitrust
law. Possibly no one was more sur
prised to know these men were not
guilty than they were themselves.

more than two yearslago the sugges-
ton received scant endorsement.
Now, however, sentiment. for such a
plan is growing rapidly and it is
generally believed that the presiden-

Col. Young will probably say

It begins to look az though It will

New York republicans evidently
prefer Taft to Roosevelt, The colon
ell made great mistake when he
assured Taft's friends and LaFol-
let's friends within the year that
he would not be a candidate in 1912
The extreme progressives are oppos-
ed to the colonel on that account.
1t is time for men to stand for
the right, for principle, for justice
and fair dealing. The Almighty Doll
lar is getting altogether too much
influence in the American congress
and unless the people sustain the
men who have revoited against its
reign 1t will grow stronger and
stronger and become more domineer
ing than ever a king upon the
throne. 49,, q --rS.v

upon a young woman with whom he
