on the Mulhall story the Kansas City

LOYALTY 10 FRIENDS.

Some politicians have a habit Of ex.
alting loyalty to friends as the most
sublime Of all virtues. That man
should be true TO his friends may be
accepted as automatic but TO make the
law OF loyalty binding it must be as.
sumed that his friends are worthy. For
a man In public life to assume that he
must stand BY his friends even though
the latter be crooks or pirates is ridic.
ulousiy absurd. while at the same time
i shows failure TO comprehend the
kindergarten principles Of morality. To
2 man 20 public life, the interest Of
TIE public must be paramount to every
consideration Of personal friendship.
II Gov Cruce had devoted his state
ment to showing that his appointees
who are under fire are worthy Of his
friendship. he might have made his
case much stronger than he did.

Personal Hygiene

The human body cares for itself
better in summer than in winter; yet,
as at all times, il rebels against abuse
or undue exposure.
One should battle frequently. There
are few people who cannot take a cold
or slightly warmed bath every morn
ing during the hot months. The his
tory of the Greeks and Romans teach
the modern races a valuable lesson IN
this respect.
Beware of the excuses of summer.
Eating-Eat less OF meat than in
winter-once a day being ample for
the average man. in fact, during the
hot period, one is much better in alb

red meats. a diet of fish. eggs. vege-

With a regular Republican ticket in
the field the belief is that the
contest will narrow down to a strug-
gle between the Republicans and the
Independents, the chances favoring the
latter. In Albany there is more than
the usual amount of talk for a citizens
ticket made up OF Independents APP
pealing TO the voters of all parties in
the interest OF a progressive and eff.
clent city administration. The con-
trolling motive in Albany, as In New
York and Buffalo. is the demand for
ncn-partisan management OF city ar

seem 10 be losing faith in the honesty

Among New York state municipal
tiles where mayors and common coun-

mcnt appears TO be very much alive.
New York city is not the only place
where the opposition to bossism is
militant with good prospects OF sue
cess at the polls. In Buffalo, the sec
end city Of the state, the voters are
preparing to prevent representatives
OF either of the old party machines
from being elected on the city or coun-
~ ticket. The Progressives, who stood
second in the list last year with about
10000 votes, are preparing TO unite
With all independents on some high
