EARRING JEROME.

Jerome shouldn't have done it. M
lawyer has skill enough to play pen
ny-ante with newspaper man. From
time out of mind the vain effort has
been made by the chancellory to make
a dent into the journalistic profes
sion, but every time barrister held
four queens they were overcome with
four pasteboards with a picture of a
man with stiletto, and the suffra'
gettes sank into oblivion with wav'
ering moan and were lost.
And another thing-it is bad luck
for a persistent prosecutor to play
poker on a suit case right under the
British flag. For poker has long
been known as the great American
game, and was pushed right up the
ladder by such men as Daniel Web
ster and John Morrissy. These men
of course succumbed to the skill Of
Thurlow Weed and the elder Ben
nett, for penny-ante is really a news.
papermans game, the only occupa-
ton on earth where he keeps his
assets and liabilities piled side by
side.
What chance has mere man like
Jerome with people like Arthur Bris-
bane, Herbert Kaufman, Laura Jean
Libby, Ella Wheeler Wilcox or Vic
tor F. Lawson? None at all. 1t
takes a person with poetry in the soul
to push the pasteboards into post
norton. The player without imagin-
alton is unwilling to stand raise of
fifteen cents and come back with an
other raise of two-bits. He just lays
down his three deuces and pair of
aces for the man or woman with a bob
tail flush, nine high. The newspaper
worker sees more in a proposition
than lawyer. The lawyers can take
their Choates and their Frank Kel-
loggs and put them up against the
George Thompsons and the William
Randolf Hearts, and what is the re.
suit of the barristers? Just oblivion.
Nothing else.
Canada hates the game of poker,
anyway. We have helped to teach
our brothers up there to hate the
game. We have heard them say it.
We have heard them speak profanely
of the great American game on the
Sabbath. You might as we'll walk up
the streets of Winnipeg carrying the
stars and stripes and hope to carry a
Canadian election as to play our great.
est game on depot platform within
the dominion and expect to get away
with it. That is the way the despised
Yankees have kept the stream of Can
adam dollars rollong this way. But it
must be by stealth, for up there poker
IS somewhat akin to highway robbery
or playing Yankee Doodle with fife
and drum
William Travers Jerome was al
ways short-sighted anyway, and the
only thing that saved him from long
and diet of tea was his
absolute innocence of the game. He
could prove that he wasn't playing
poker-that he was merely trying to
play it and that he hadn't put one
good thing over in all that mornings
total depravity. He stayed twice on
pair of fives and stood raise each
time. Moses Clapp could have told
him that there is nothing more crude
than that, that many people are sent
to Fergus Falls for that very same
thing.-The State.

Mr.. WILSON'S POLITICAL &C.
7IVI1Y

TVITY.
The shrinkage in the Progressive
Party vote wherever elections hav'
been held since 1912, is not encourag
ing to "the cause" while it has I
distinctly rejuvenating effect on th'
Republicans.
Comment has been made on the city
results in St. Louis, the state election
in Michigan, and the congressional
election in Maine. Here were contests
that tested the strength of the Pro
gressives in local, state and national
affairs. In St. Louis the election oc'
Cured so soon after the national con-
test that the Progressives were still in
fine fettle, but they cut no figure in the
election. In Michigan the contest was
even more significant, .or there the
Progressives put up their ticket in a
state that had been carried for Roose.
Yelt the previous year. In spite of
this, Republicans returned in droves
to the old organization. Both Pro-
gressives and Democrats were showed
under.
The story of the special election in
Maine resulted in a breakup of the
Progressive vote, and the election of
Republican congressman by the aid
of the Bull Moose recruits.
Since these elections there have
been some primary contests which are
prophetic. In Massachusetts the Re-
publicans have named Congressman
Gardner, a progressive who does not
capitalize the word, for governor. The
Progressives have renamed their old
candidate, Colonel Bird.
In New Jersey there is another
shree-cornered contest in which the
leading figures are Acting Governor
Fielder for the Democrats, Former
Governor Stokes nominated by the re-
publicans, and Everett Colby named
by the Progressives. The significant
Fact there is that the progressive can
didate was named by handful of vot-
rs compared with the others. The pre-
diction is that Fielder will not have
such a walk-away as a divided Repub-
licanism gave Wilson last year. New
Jersey gave one hundred and seventy
aight thousand votes to Wilson against
two hundred and thirty thousand for
Roosevelt and Taft Such a falling
off in the Progressive vote as the pri-
maries indicate would easily elect
Stokes.
While that would not necessarily
mean setback to the administration,
evidently the President believes it
would have that appearance, for he is
exerting every legitimate influence to
help the cause of Fielder. He is doing
much the same thing in New York
City.
Everywhere the president is playing
strong politics. His motive is evil
dent. 1t is necessary to have the coun-
try indorse his administration by elect
ing his men for the sake of the effect
on Democratic senators and represent
Atives. They are FESTIVE under the
caucus rule. They would like to have
some independence. But the president
cannot afford to give it to them until
more of his program is accomplished.
The tariff is out of the way. The cur
Fency plan is started, but behind those
lie the issues outlined in the New

FORMER RESIDENTS

The following social item from the
Lincoln State Journal, will be read
, with interest by old friends of the
bride and her parents:
At 2:30 yesterday afternoon at the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. H. A. Hilborn,
1920 South Sixteenth street, took
place the marriage of their daughter,
Gertrude, to Stanley Morris, of

ofticiated. The bride was unattended.
The company of forty people, who
witnessed the ceremony included only
relatives and close friends. The bride
was gowned in white brocaded satin
trimmed in pearls and princess lace.
Her boquet was shower of bridal
roses and lilies-of-the-valley. Miss
Georgia Scott Of Mitchell, S, D., played
Mendelssohn's Wedding March" as
the bride entered with her father and
was met by the groom beneath
canopy of smilax and white roses. The
decorations of the rooms were of
great beauty, smilax converting the
staircase and walls of the bungalow
into veirtable bower. A buffet
luncheon followed the service. The
Misses Katherine Benner, Helen AL
lensworth and Genevive Rase assisted
in serving.
Mr.. and Mrs. Norris left in the
afternoon for Fulton, S. D., where the
groom holds a position with the First
State bank Mr.. Morris is the son
of Mr.. and Mrs. S. E. Morris of
Mitchell, S. D., the groom's father
being president of the Western Ma
tional bank of that place. The bride
graduated last spring from. the de-
partment of music of the Dakota
Wesleyan university, located at Nit
chell, and has resided in Lincoln for
only few months e,
The out-of-town guests were as fol-
lows: Mr.. and Mrs. S. E. Morris

A Gold Medal

A gold metal to the school boy
or girl between the ages of 10
and IS who writes the best COM
position, not to exceed 800 words,
on the repair and maintenance
of earth roads, it is to be award
ed by Logan Waller Page,
Director, Office of Public Roads,
United States Department ST
Agriculture, WASHINGTON, d. c..
All compositions must be sub
mited to Mr.. Page before May
Is, 1913. and the medal will be
awarded as soon thereafter as
the composition can be graded.
The composition may be based
on knowledge gained from books
or other sources, but no quotati-
ons should be made.
After many years, experience
in dealing with the public road
situation of the country, 1t is
Mr.. Pages belief that ignorance
on the subject of repair aud
maintenance of roads is as much
the case of their bad condition
as any other other one factor.
1t is expected that they cometti'
on will bring about better un'
derstanding of the subject Of
repair and maintenance in the
