Mr.. Martin Green, the star re.
porter of the New York World, says
the ideal reporter is man with
what is called nose for news
This, says Mr.. Green, is actually a
sixth sense an inner something
which tells its fortunate possessor
just how to go about getting news,
often leading him to the exact spot
where something is going to hap
PEN" Nobody knows this any bet
ter than the country newspaper guy,
who Is not only expected to write
upon all kinds of subjects at ran
dom, but to possess an extra long
nose for news. Not all the time
does his work realize these expec-
tations. But he is usually man of
infinite faith in his profession and
prone to disappointments and dis
couragements.

School Attendance.

Parents should encourage their
children to be prompt in school at
tendance. Many parents seem to
think that it makes little difference
whether their children are prompt
in their attendance at school or not.
They think that five minutes tardi-
ness or half days absence once in
awhile will not interfere with the
child's progress. That idea is wrong.
Although the child may not lose
much real information each time, he
will lose that which is more impor-
tant-he will lose his interest in the
school and his studies.
Teach your children promptness
and they will soon form the habit.

session of the Senate Judiciary Com

ed. An amendment was proposed by
Senator Dillingham; to provide that
whiskey should not be shipped be-
yond the confines of any State which
permits its manufacture.
Such proposal would only need
a majority vote in Congress, and
would not require approval of three
fourths of the States, as is the case
with constitutional amendment.

The wise man said, Bring a
child up in the way he should go and
when he is old he will not depart
from it," There seems to be wo-
full lack of parental attention nova
days, especially in regard to boys.
Some boys do practically as they
please and this sort of course usual
ly leads them into paths of hayward
ness and worthlessness. The pity
is that their parents do not seem to
know this or even care to know. A
boy should be required to give a
strict account of his whereabouts
when not under the home roof. This
may seem hard on the boy, but his
parents have a right to know and in
after years he will thank them for
their watchfulness.

The subject of compulsory vacci-
nation is again being agitated anent
the mandates of the State Board OF
Health. AS a matter of fact, the
State Board of Health is invested
with too much power in these prem
ises-power to circumscribe the per-
sonal liberties and rights of citi-
zens and compel them to incur dis
ease and sometimes death, whether
they want to or not. Vaccination is
not a certain preventive of smallpox
and often it brings on worse trou-
BILE. II should be left to the individ-
ual to choose but compelling him to
adopt less dangerous precautionary
measures. The present compulsory
vaccination law is entirely too dras-
tic in all its qualifications.

Gov. Stanley will do well If he
acts a little chary in regard to his
use of the pardoning power, espec-
tally in consideration of men who
have served only a small portion OF
their sentences. There has been too
much pardoning done by former
Governors. II is a generous and
commendable thing to do when this
power is invoked in cases of wrong
ly convicted men, or men who have
apparently paid in full the measure
of their crime. But otherwise it
breeds contempt for the law and its
edicts and disheartens jury service.

welt are both ION the war path
these days-that is they are discuss
ing the subject of the United States
at war with some other nation, pos
sibly or prospectively. But there is
a wide difference in their respective
views. Mr.. Wilson does not want
our country to go to war unless We
have unavoidable cause and are
amply prepared for it. Col. Roose-
welt wants us to go to war right
now, without stopping to consider
any measures of preparedness. The
two men represent the difference be-
tween calm judgement, sure pro-
cedure and a rash imp6lsiveness that
usually meets with no reward except
disaster.

While many murders are laid to
the country districts, where it is sup
posed the population is less civilized
and less removed from the savage
state, yet it remains a fact that the
majority of murders throughout the
country are committed in the cities
and are of species exhibiting the
height of fiendishness. The murders
in cities are also increasing in num-
Der. 1t would look like the envi-
ronment of cities. with their large
police force and detectives, would
lessen the murder rate, but cold fig
ures prove otherwise. For a first
class murderer and highwayman,
the product of the cities outranks
that of the outlying districts.
