hotel and took possession on the 9Th.
Mr.. Good will retain the brick livery
barn as usual and act as host to the
travelling public as we'll. It is under

a man who can meet people with the
glad hand and his success in the line
he has chosen will be assured from the
start.
Mr.. and Mrs. MCGEE are among the
old time residents of Cando and will
be greatly missed if they decide to To-
cate elsewhere. They will leave Can
do the latter part of next week for

POLITICAL Goss|Ps

When one class Of people has any
thing to say, it has become largely
the custom to make a political issue
out Of 1t instead OF a friendly discus
sion. to print it In a law book instead
Of a newspaper and to argue 1t be-
fore a, jury instead Of to settle it in
the higher courts"of Common Sense.
As a result. political agitators.. polit-
ical lawyers, political preachers and
masculine women are powerful In
politics and dissension, selfishnese, in
tolerance and Mysteries run rampant
In public affairs, for when the low,
damp, murky atmosphere OF misun.
derstanding envelopes public thought
it breeds political reptiles. vermin,
bugs and lice which the pure air Of
truth and the sunshine Of understand
ing will choke to death.
We have too many self-appointed
interpreters Of industry who are In.
capable OF grasping the fundamental
principles of business and who at best
can only translate gossip and add
color to sensational stories. No busi-
ness can stand upon error and might
rules-rght or wrong. No induatry
can thrive upon misunderstanding,
for public opinion IL mor powerful
than a Kings sword.
When prejudice. suspicion and
class hatred prevail, power gravitates
into the hands Of the weak, for dema.
goEues thrive upon d%issension and
statesmen sicken upon strife.
The remedy lies in eliminating the
middleman-the political gossip-and
this result q be accomplished by
the managers Of business sitting
around the table of industry and talk
ting 1t over with the people. Inter
change Of information between indus.
tries and the people is as necessary
to success in business a. interchange
In commodities. for the people can
only rule when the public under
stands. Away with political interpret
ers who summon evil spirits from
their prison cells and loose them to
prey upon the welfare Of the people
In the name Of MY Country"
