HAVE TO DIE TO RECEIVE
PRAISE.

If from the spontaneous tributes of
affection and sorrow that have mark
ed the passage of William j. Gay
nor's body to its grave his survivors,
now imperatively impelled to the re-
sumption of their several activities,
have failed to learn the lesson offer
ed by his life their comprehensions
are too dull to profit by the obvious
teachings Of his notable career.
1t was not the fortuitous incident
of public office that drew forth the
tribute paid with equal sincerity by
men and women of all stations and all
occupations. To Gaynor the man;
the sturdy defender of his fellows
fair name; the constant supporter
of popular rights; the searching crit
ic of meddlesome legislation; the UNI
sparing pursuer of oppressive Off
cials; the philosopher so impatient
of sham; to him the full measure of
uncompelled praise was given.
With the incidents of yesterday and
Sunday alive in the minds of this city,
will any man dare to assert that
William j. Gaynor spoke falsely when
he said New York was an honorable
city? Will any orator, even in the
heat of public debate, have the tenn
Gritty to assail as depraved and vic
ious the people whose fame was ever
precious to him whose earthly tene-
ment has been laid to rest? Will any
candidate be so lost reason and intel
ligence as to believe that popularity
can be won through the old ISLANDERS
which Mayor Gaynor in righteous
anger refuted with caustic words?
That his work should live after him
is the fairest monument that can be
raised to mans memory. Let the
enduring memorial of William j. Gay
nor be the perpetuation of his con-
tempt for the falsehoods that form
the coin current of that mean and
filthy politics he SO abhorred.-New
York Sun.
In his life Mayor Gaynor was
abused and vilified as if he had been
felon. He was painted by the yell
low press and the professional re-
formers of his city as the abettor Of
and gamer by the crimes of the un-
derworld. His death was hastened
by the bullet of madman encourage
ed to his crime by the fulminations of
Gaynor's enemy.
After death New York paid its ex-
ecutive head greater tribute than had
been paid to any public official in
generation. He was mourned as a
personal friend by thousands; the
poor and friendless wept at his bier;
and the greatest in the land gave
quick recognition to the honesty and
genius of this man so vilified in his
life.
His one crime was in upholding the
honor and good name of his city and
IN refusing to truckle to yellow
journal and yellow reformer. But he
had to die in office in order to be
placed right with the world adds the
Denver Times.

FINANCIAL GENIUS ON A FARM.

at is proven and every one must
know that the producer does not get
the money"
Thus spake correspondent of The
Record-Herald who lives in Sturgis,
Mich, and who proves, apparently,
that he himself is a hereto. The
producer is farmer According to
the newspapers and ecstatic politi-
clans farmer is person who is
the son and heir of prosperity. He
wallows in wealth, has billion or
two yearly from the hens alone, and
for few years past he has devoted
himself chiefly to automobiles. He
has bandoned his old speciality of car,
rying mortgages and has the auto
mobiles carry him.
Another correspondent of The Rec
ord-Herald testifies that the farmer
sells his peaches at 40 cents crate
when the intervening agencies get
$3.50. But this makes the farmers
financial genius shine all the bright
er. A man who can joy-ride on 40
cents crate undoubtedly has the key
to success and happiness in his jeans,
and there is more evidence to prove
that he Is indeed a wonder. We have
known farmers, owners of land.
whose net income would be about
equal to day wages, and the children
helped. City statisticians would
throw in the labor of the farmer and
the children as a negligible contribu-
tion to the result and speak of the
net as clean profit, and they are right
if the labor consists wholly of riding
in the automobiles. However, furth-
er information on this point is desir-
able. Farmers have been known to
rise with the roosters and to retire
long after the roosts were full, and
to break the monotony of joy riding
by turning from the automobiles to
feeding the stock, milking the cows
and encouraging the poor. neglected
horses by keeping them at the plow
from an early breakfast till a late
supper.
We return to our old friend in the
orange growing business. One seas
on he received 83 cents a box for
oranges. There is dozen dozens of
oranges in box, and the fruit was
selling at from 40 to so cents doz-
en- in the Chicago market. At a box
and half to the tree this farmer
would have received gross returns
OF about SIPS to the acre. What
with fair interest charge, fertili-
zation, irrigation and labor he was
producing oranges that others might
enjoy them and that many good peo-
Pile might make living, in trade
and commerce. He recognized that
the world owen them living and he
was helping the world pay its debt.
Upon the whole it should be a
matter for general satisfaction that
the farmer can spend so much time
in automobiles. While appearances
indicate that he belongs to the class
OF the idle rich it would seem that,
like so many of the rich, he is phil
anthropist. He differs from them
only in his methods. He gives be-
fore, instead Of after taking.
