ANOTHER CHAUTAUOUA
VICTIM

Chautauqua ''gets" the best
of them, and now Vice Presi-
dent Marshall has followed the
example of The il.ustrious
William Jennings Bryan,
Champ Clark, CAPTAIN Hobson
and others, and has signed a
contract to deliver from thirty
to forty five lectures in Missouri,
Iowa and Kansas next summer.
A good deal of sympathy has
been bestowed upon the Vice
President because of the fact
that he is compelled to live OH
his salary, and this restricts him
to palatial suite of rooms ana
board in one of the most arts
tocratic hotels III the United
States, where the charges are
so high that he undoubtedly has
to take up the Chautauqua to
"piece out" expenses.

THE EXPERT WORKMAN AND
THE NOVICE AT THE TRADE

So far as we know nobody doubts
the personal merits, good sense and
fine character of John Stockton, but
that is no reason at all why he
should disnlace Duncan u Fletcher
in the United States Senate, for no.
body doubts that Senator Fletcher is
equally well equipped as Stockton
with the qualities above mentioned.
But the Senator mas the large ad-
vantage of Stockton that he is now
through years of experience an ex-
pert at his job and by fitness and
service has reached the point where
he can give the largest measure of
usefulness to his constituents. In
other words, he is now the highly
trained workman who through nat
ural aptitude, diligence at his task
and ample experience has reached
the necessary standard of efficiency
for a high-class public servant, and
to "fire him from his job" at this
time would be as senseless and un-
businesslike as to discharge an ex-
pert engineer rendering perfect ser
vice to take on an amateur without
record or experience whose only cap
ital consisted of his abundant prom
ises, his entire willingness, his ma
tive good sense and unimpeachable
character. That illustrates the is
sue with perfect fairness between
Fletcher and Stockton.
In this connection we quote from
a South Carolina newspaper discuss
ing the influence of the North Caro-
lima delegation in Congress, especi-
ally the steady rise of Senator Sim
mons, who has been kept in the Sem
ate for many years and now by vir-
tue of long service and ability is
chairman of the great committee on
finance and is a statesman Of large
and real something new
er to be said of a new arrival in that
body. Says the paper referred to:
"And by the way, there is les
son in this for all of us in the South
That lesson is this: When good
man has once been found and sent
to Congress, keep him there. Every
year he serves in that body increases
his grip on things, his prestige, his
sphere of influence and consequently
his power to serve his district or his
State. Suppose North Carolina had
swapped Simmons for a new man in
the campaign of 1912. Suppose
Claude Kitchin had been dropped for
some other candidate, anxious for
his own personal good to get to Con-
gress. Where would that State be
now as regards the influence she
could bring to bear on the national
government"

Here is something so fine, strong
and clear from the London Chronicle
in it's estimate of President Wilson
in his relation to the press that it
cannot be given too much publicity.
"a statesman 'who neglects the
popular newspapers is like a doctor
who might ignore the pulse of his
patient. President Wilson under
stands the power of the press-its
importance as a register of facts and
opinions the only constantly
heard voice of the Democracy. That
is why he announces his intention
of taking it into his confidence, and
asking as much from it in return.
"The only way | can succeed is by
not having my mind live in Wash
ington. Your interest is
simply to see that the thinking of
the people comes pressing in all the
time on Washington

(After Kipling-A Long Way After
If you can laugh when others weep
If you can work while others sleep,
If you can lose and never kick,
But start again and gamely stick /;
If you can face defeat and grin.
Nor grumble if you never win;
If you see things go to pot.
An never get your collar hot.
But take it with perfect grit
And scorn to curse single bit;
If you can bear heap of pain,
And scarcely murmur or complain
If treachery and lies and such
Can never phase you very m"ch,
And all through life you don't des-

If you can keep your life thus high

You'll have an awful bulge on me!

PREACHER BOUNCED FOR
SCORING THE RICH

Pittsburg, Jan. 27 The Rev.
Edward Golden an Episcopal minis
ter, who has been unsparing in his
criticism of certain actions of the
rich, has been ousted the second

land Whitehead, of the Pittsburg
diocese. When pastor of St. Mar
garet's Protestant Episcopal church,

For this, his friends said, he was re-

FICTION FROM THE
SEAT OF WAR

One Of our serious objections to
war, in addition to the slaughter,
discomfort and cost, Is that it so
stimulates the human imagination
that it is hard to tell fact from fic.
tion and breeds SO many deliberate
liars that the honest historian who
comes along later on to write up the
scrap in permanent form has an al
most impossible task in arriving at
the truth amid prodigious mass of
falsehood. Here for instance we
find dispatch from the City of Mex
leo under date of Jan. "a purport-
ing to state an actual occurrance.
1t as as follows:
Zone hundred women and chill
dren and hundred and fifty federal
soldiers were massacred by the reb-
els near Vanegras, north of Sanluis
Potosi recently, according to reports
received here today. The soldiers
with the women, surrendered to the
rebels. They were taken to a near
by ranch where the butchery oc-

Horrible. isn't it? And thousands
of people throughout the world will
accept it as tire and rate the rebels
as monsters of barbarism and cruel
ty whose cause ought not to triumph
and against which the moral sense
of mankind should be consolidated.
And that dorhtless was the very OBJ
ject in sending out this Munchausen
dispatch, That it was manufactured
