STILL KICKING THE MAN
WHO IS DOWN.

The disposition to kick man
when he is down will perhaps new
er ba overcome altogether. There
will always be those who will set
themselves upon a plane "a little
higher than their fellowman and
exclaim Behold - This may
not be the precise attitude as
sumed by Professor Holden, the
exIpolitician and present corn eX-
pert. when he refused to break
bread at banquet an Monroe
with ex-senator William Lorlmer,
but it comes very close to 1T. The
fact that Lorimer was dismissed
from the United States senate
after having been charged with
corruption was the cause OF Pro-
fessor Holden declaring he could
mot and would not attend the ban
quet prepared for him (Holdenj
by the people of Monroe. EX-
Senator Lorimer, who was not in
formed of the attitude of Profess
sor Holden, did attend, which
made the affair perhaps the most
embarrassing episode the splen-
did citizenship of Monroe has ever
had to experience.
1t is the same old story. When
a man takes one step on the down
ward path there are dozens stand
ing ready to shove him to his see
ond step where one man can be
found to extend hand to brin z
him back. There was nothing
manly in the action of Professor
Holden. He is probably recOg-
nized as a Christian gentleman in
his home city and state, and yet
he dare not break bread with a
fellowman for fear of becoming
contaminated. The best citizens
Of Monroe, who no doubt can read
as high title of ancestry as Pro-
fessor Holden, were not adverse
to having the ex-senator present
nor to extending their hand.
Our time on this earth is short,
at the longest. 1t is our nature
to wish to judge our fellowman,
yet it is not our privilege. How
much better we would be and
how much greater world the
world be if we could but take
every misguided brother by the
hand and lead him to the plane
upon which we. i'm our egotism
and comceit, believe we are rest
ing.-L. G.. Times.

GROWTH OF A TOWN,

The growth of a town Is val
liable and worthwhile to It's cltl-
zens both collectively and md
vidnally. 1t stimulates GIVE
pride. puts life and action into
the people and makes possible
conveniences, improvements ana
amrsements that otherwise could
mot be had,
A non-prOgressive town puts
its mark upon It's citizenship.
Team work among its inhabitants
does not exist because there is no
spirit Of progress to create 1t.
Energy and movement for better
ment not being present to unite
them the citizens, as rule, waste
their time In fractional politics,
for even in a dead town there are
some people who must have ac-
tiUH.
There Is mo excuse for a town
to be backward and waiting tor
something to turn up, or for the
iitizens Of any town to waste
their enregy and time with fai-
tional politics, for there are TOO
many opportunities lying at the
door OF every town waiting fo'
action and consideration of its
cit .ns.
Surrounding every town is a
country capable of producing
three and folrfold what it is
yielding. What splendid work
to assist in this great and profit
able development
There are good roads to build
to make these farm lands more
convenient to each other and the
town, to bring the country people
close in real brotherhood and
give them greater pleasures and
further, to eliminate the enorm-
ous tax of bad roads upon the
workers of the farms. How much
greater and how much finer to
aid I'M this great work than to frit-
ter energy and time away?
Nearby every town there are
products either natural or grown
that its inhabitants use in man.

port,rmity for profitably energy to

consumption.
Other cities and town to these
things, and it is simply a matter
of wanting to do them. There
should be a stop to the time that
is lost and use our energy. get to-
gether, all as one, and do these
things that will prove helpful to
ourselves as community and we
will all prosper as individuals. :

SPANS KING.

King Alfonso's behavior In the
affair of Sunday last was quite
for his courage Is
known of all men, as his father s
was. Throughout his reign, the
young sovereign has shown abso,
lutte fearlessness, both physical
and moral. Few rulers have had
greater difficulties and dangers
to face. The country has been
disturbed in all sorts of ways.
Alfonso's title is disputed by mil
lions of his subjects who are
monachists by conviction, but
who believe that the throne
rightfully belongs to the Carhst
branch of the bourbon house. The
Republicans, of course, detest
monarchy, no matter who hap
pens to wear the crown. Never
theless, the weakly boy rose fast
in the public esteem and now,
nearing the end of his twenty
seventh year, may be said to in
carnate SPANS best hope or
progress along conservative lines.
The change wrought within the
last four decades is truly marve-
lous. Alfonsos KIT succeeded to
a heritage of infamy, for his
mother was the Queen Isabella
whose name became a byword IN
all centers of gossip, and his faith
err Francisco de Assist, was a
contemplate fiure. But Alfonso
XII was made of different stun.
Brave as a lion, his tact and com
mon sense soon became proverb-
ial. Though his second marriage
with Maria Christina, a Haps-
burg princess) was no love match,
as his Maria ge with Maria de Las
Mercedes had been, the alliance
was a most lucky one, for Maria
Christina had to serve as regent
till the present King, a postum
nous son, reached his sixteenth
| wear. and the regent performed
her delicate duties with the rar-
est unselfishness and skill. Rev
olution was constantly in the air
but universal respect for noble
woman kept the most radical OPP
ponents within bounds.
| The yorng King has mot IN
frequently gone counter to the
/ deepest prejudfces of the race
but has always known just where
to stop. Thus he married on
English princess reared IN the
Protestant faith and thereby SET
sentiment above policy. Bu'
there has newer been the slight
est suspicion Of foreign influence
| and the wisdom of the match has
passed beyond controversy.
A1fonso's escape from death Il
most fortunate An every sense
but is especially fortunate be
cause the heir to the throne Is
onyl six years old, and another
long regency might give the rev
olutionists the upper hand
Spain is rich in every resource
, but needs decades of peace fol
their full development. For years
and years, the country was thu
prey of bloodthirsty factions, a.
Mexico now is. 1t seemed as il
there would never again be
stable government. But Alton
so XII came just in time to save
society from total wreck, and the
work of salvage thus begun has
gone steadily on. Alfonso XII

Not the stern requirement OF com
