SMELLING THE FLEsH-PoTs.

Two very solid reasons lie behind
the Jealous effort to annul the divorce
of the Progressive from the Republi-
can party: The first reason Is that
by reunion of Progressive and Re-
publican forces a good many Demo
carts can be kept out of office. The
second is that through such a union
some distinguished Republicans Of
more or less Progressive leaning may
reasonably hope to achieve offices
now beyond their reach.
These are excellent reasons as far
as they go, and if the grand object
of politics is the winning of Offices
as some cynical persons allege-they
are really unanswerable.
If the happenings at Chicago last
June were merely an inadvertence
that temporarily steranged political
brethren-if those who followed
Roosevelt have at bottom the same
concept Of national duty as those who
followed Taft-there should certainly
be a reconciliation. If the only
thing that keeps Brother Barnes form
Brother Pinchot, for example, Is a DIFF.
erence Of opinion over the decision
Of the credentials committee in the
Texas case, by all means let them.
shake hands and make up.
If the Progressive party cannot
stand being in the minority-if the
notion of somebody else's wining the
next election is intolerable to it
then it should at once unite with the
Republican party, or the Democratic
or the Socialistic, Or any other organi.
zation that promises to bring it with.
in hailing distance Of the flesh-pots-
because in that case it is of so little
account anyway that where it han.
pens to stand is of no consequence.

nounced last week that the paper
was being edited and printed by the
force while he was at work stacking
wheat in the harvest field. Time
was when the Democrat editor used

as his annual vacation, but We have
been off duty at the job for the past
tour years and are of the opinion
that the job of lunch carrier would
be about equal to our ability in the

Funny how the blame for every
thing is laid at the newspaper man IS
door. When the papers tell the
world that the farmers of this bully
old state are going to raise a bump
er wheat crop they are cussed be-
cause it is said that such a report
will help to lower the price Of the
wheat. II they publish a report that
ecrops are poor, they are cussed be-
cause these reports are read by the
laborers of the east, and the result
Is a scarcity of harvest hands, and
it's case of damned if you do and
damned if you don't. But it proves
the assertion that advertising brings
results.
