Residents OF South Tenth street are

inmate in a free-for-all fight. II is
said by the residents that these an
noying persons come to the park about
midnight after they have been ordered
from Main street. The police have
been summoned on different occasions
but were unable TO apprehend the dis
turbers of the peace,
Il think Richmond needs more po-
licemen to enforce order in the city

A Disgusting Spectacle

A disgusting spectacle, that one being staged
at Albany. AS an eleventh hour climax in this
political romance in real lfe which today ended
in the impeachment of Governor Sulzer, his wife
confessed that she, not her husband used cam
pagn fund monies to speculate in the Wall street
stock market.
When the governor asked to confirm this
rumor he referred the reporters to his friend
Senator Palmer, who, the press dispatches state
remained SILENT
Acting the theory that silence gives con-
firmation in such cases Sulzer follower vainly
endeavored to delay action on the impeachment
resolution until the new development in this
nauseating incident had been thoroughly in
vestigated.
1t may or it may not be true that Mrs. Suzer
did speculate with the monies in her husbands
campaign fund. However, the governor would
have appeared in a better light had he emphati-
cally denied the report, even if he had had to
perjure himself in so doing.
The other figures in this disgraceful Albany
spectacle, the united enemies of the governor
appeared to poor advantage as Sulzer
Overlooking the fact that Sulzer was placed
in the gubernatorial chair as a creature of the
most corrupt political organization in the world,
Tammany; that he promptly bit the hand that
aided him so as to make grand stand play; that
he is petty and vain, and that he is professional
office holder, it cannot be denied that he has
made an effort to uphold the rights of the people
OF New York State even though his course of
action has been influenced, to great degree, by
selfish interests.
However, what good Sulzer has done is a mat
ter of indifference to the Murphy machine. The
gang merely regards Sulzer as traitor to the Or
ganization, hence must be punished if machine
discipline is to be maintained.
The voters of New York state also play sor-
ry part in this sordid political episode.
1t was their ballots that placed a Tammany
man at the head of the state government and it
was their lax attention to their civic duties
which has permitted Tammany to tie up the
greatest state in the union with it's network of
corruption, inefficiency and treachery.

Heart toHeart
Talks
Is THE YOUNG MAN SAFE7

Possibly Ia all tho Bible. with its
wealth of tender and touching tales.
there is not to be found a more ap-
pealing picture than that of King Da-
yid waiting ut the gate for tidings Of
his son Absalom.
There had been a great battle. Da-
vid. loving his maynard. rebellious
son Absalom we'll, had nevertheless
been compelled to send soldiers TO put
down his rebellion.
He had charged them strongly.
Deal gently, for my sake, with the
young man, even with Absalom." But
his command had been disobeyed. Alb
salon, caught by the hair Of his head
In an oak, as others are caught every
day by their sins, was dead, slain in
disregard of the kings commands.
To the king came running a messen-
ger with tidings of the battle. David
asked no word of victory, of exulta-
ton.
rs the young man Absalem safer
he said.
How often do parents sit at the gate
OF the city waiting for news of the
battle! In them is no thought Of the
outcome of the warfare, no desire for
victory, save as it brings back safe to
them their children. They ask of life
only this question:
rs my boy or girl safer"
In time life takes from all of US
what we prize best. AS we grew old
er we leave behind our youth, our
health, our length Of days. Worst of
all, 1t takes our children.
We cannot withhold them from the
world. 1t calls on US to surrender
them to it SO they may take up their
share Of its burdens, may wage their
portion of its warfare. AS they grow
older they are stirred with the same
desire to mingle in the strife which
moved US in our younger days.
We do well If we send them forth
guarded by the buckler of virtue and
truth and armed with the weapons of
knowledge and skill and self restraint.
But go forth they must.
Then we sit at the gate Of the city
awaiting their return. Sometimes they
come back laden with the spoils of vic
tory; sometimes they limp back torn
and bleeding with the wounds of I'M
equal strife. Not every one may fight
the world with assurance of success.
But it is their safety for which we
are concerned, not their success. We
do not ask:
Have you won prizes in the warp
We say, as did King David of old:
lis the young man safe?"
May it not be with US as it was with
the king:
And the king was much moved and
went up to the chamber over the gate
and wept, and as he went thus he said
O my son Absalom. my son. my SOC
Absalom! Would God had died for
thee, o Absalom. my son. my sonl"

Why Hold a Primary?

DR.. w. W. Zimmerman, in formally announc-
ing his candidacy for the Republican nomination
for mayor stated that he thought the holding of
primary election unnecessary.
The doctor is right.
Why the expensive mockery of forming a
ticket by such method with only one candidate
for mayor, for clerk and few counclmanic
vacancies going begging?
The couple of hundred Republican voters in
Richmond can get together in any public hall
without congesting it, and, without waste of time
select the two heads of the ticket By resorting
to the draft rule the several vacancies on the
ticket for which no candidates have yet an
nounced themselves could be filled in expedi-
tious manner
Republicans are also more familiar with the
workings of the convention system than they
are with direct primaries, therefore there would
be less danger of bungng in the making of
their ticket.

NO SENSE IN EITHER.
Two Ways of Telling a Story, One of
Which Pointed a Moral.


Two men entered a train at a small
station out west and took seats facing
an elderly gentleman. They fell TO tell
ing hunting stories with great ANNA
ton and many many oaths.
Noticing that the old gentleman was
an interested listener, one of the men
spoke to him and asked whether he,
too, was not hunter, with a story or
two worth hearing.
The told gentleman thought he could
tell one, and this is what he said:
zone day l thought 1 would go hunt
ing, so l took my tin pan finder box
gun and went up into tin pan finder
box woods on the side of tin pan tin
der box mountain, and l waited a tin
pan finder box long time; and then I
saw a tin pan finder box fine buck
coming toward me, so l put my tin
pan finder box gun to my shoulder and
fired. And that tin pan finder box
buck fell right in its tin pan finder box
tracks, and it was the finest tin pan
finder box buck l ever killed" After
a pause he. said, How do you like my
story?''
"Oh, the story is all right, but I
don't see what all that tin pan finder
box has to do with it."
"Well," replied the old gentleman,
that Is just my way of swearing"
Il don't see much sense in swearing
that way said the other, with mani
fest disgust
To which the old gentleman respond
ed, There is as much sense in my way
Of swearing as there is in yours, young
man"-Youth's Companion.
