Politics is wonderful game and Ary popular because one may usual iy enter it with some chance to win and none to lose.
 As the years grow on a person he comes gradually to understand that political success does not necessarily mean greater talents. Men rise to the highest places in governmental affairs who are by no means superior to those in less exalted places and who are certainly inferior in many of the characteristics which are supposed to he the outward signs of truer natures.
 The first and greatest attribute for political success is what has been de- scrib"d by the slang word "peddling." TO hc able to secure popular favor one must be very diplomatic, to say the least of if. One must never on any account say what would cause him the loss of votes no matter how deeply he might feel about the things unsad. and whenever he can play both sides he should never let a It, t,e thing like feeling of hypocrisy stop him.
 No man runs for place because he L~,l"res the country needs him. He runs because he believes he needs th" country.
 However there is no harm in en- gazing in politics or. in looking for political preferment. Politics is the housekeeping of government and the dishes must be kept clean no matter who wipes them.
 But men who are elevated by votes should not always be regarded as superior by those who supplied the votes That looks too much like making q statue from mud and then kneelins down to adore your own handiwork.
 Y is generally understood that one should never believe a candidate be- for" election. but we always do. Every noe" hc makes is taken with calcula- ton and every word he speaks in public is said with view to creating q favorable impression.
 These things should always be re- m"mher"d and the abilities of can didItc for "peddling" will not be let pothies.
 Th"s" facts hold true of all candi- dates. from those in small municipal itics tn those who run for national office.
