Whore the Money Goes

In recent statement the Governor
challenged any one to cite specific in
stances OF extravaganza I'm state ex-
penditures. Last week the Review
pointed out what II considered ex-
travagance in the State Department
OF Agriculture. Possibly the Cover
nor's conception OF what constitutes
extravaganza does not coincide with
the conceptions Of some of those who
have sense OF values cultivated
through efforts to meet the rapidly
growing taxes imposed on them. This
week the Review proposes TO cite ap-
propriations made to G.. A. Bolden, as
ISOLATED State Archivist and Historian.
Appropriations were made TO pay Mr..
Bolden II months salary during the
fiscal year OF IL months ending June
Both, 1915 The figures are taken from
the audit Of finances OF the State re-
Gently completed by the State Tax
Commissioner and may be found on
pages 103, 23l and 302. There was ap-
propriated over $4,000 for Mr.. Bolden
as assistant State Archivist and sec
retary in charge OF the Panama Paci-
fc commission. Item No. 1i2 shows
that there was appropriated $2,40O for
IL months salary for Mr.. BoIden as as
sistant Archivist. Now turning TO page
232 of the audit, II is found
that $219.5O was appropriated for part
OF two months salary plus in connec-
ton with the Panama exposition. Nor
is that all. On page 3O2, under item
No. 280. Panama Pacific exposition,
state Board Of Control fund, there was
also appropriated $4,000 for seven
months salary That makes 2i months
In all. Most people have been under
the impression that there we're only
y months In year but appropriations
for willing workers have altered that
and In this particular instance. there
we're 2i months II that does not con-
stitute extravaganza. the Review is at
a loss to know what does Randolph

WILSON WOULD NOT
GIVE UP CHARACTER

| cept this single thing upon which her
/ character and history are founded
her sense OF humanity and justice. II
she sacrifices that. she has ceased 10
be America; she has ceased TO ehter-
tain and TO love the traditions which
have made us proud TO be Americans.
and when We go about seeking safety
at the expense of humanity. then l for
one will believe that have always
been mistaken in what have conceiv-
ed to be the spirit of American his
tory.
You never can tell your direction
except by long measurements. You
cannot establish a line by two posts.
You have got TO have three at least to
know whether they are straight with
anything, and the longer your line the
more certain your measurements
There is only one way in which to
determine how the future OF the Uni
ted States is going TO be projected
and that is by looking back and seeing
which way the lines ran which led up
to the present moment OF power and
opportunity. There is no doubt about
that There is no question what the
roll OF honor in America is The roll
OF honor consists of the names of men
who have squared their conduct by
ideals of duty
There is no one else upon the ros-
ter; there is no one else whose name
we care to remember when we meas
ure things upon a national scale, and
| wish that whenever an impulse of
impatience comes upon us, whenever
an impulse to settle thing some short
way tempts us, we might close the
door and take down some old stories
of what American idealists and states
men did i'm the past, and not let any
counsel in that does not sound in the
authentic voice of American tradition.
Then we shall be certain what the
lines OF the future are, because we
shall know we are steering by the
lines OF the past. We shall know that
no temporary convenience, no temper
airy expediency, will lead Js either TO
be rash or to be cowardly.
Il would be just as much ashamed
to be rash as | would to be a coward.
Valor is self-respecting. Valor is
circumspect. Valor strikes only when
it is right to strike. valor withholds
itself from all small implications and
entanglements and waits for the great
opportunity when The sword will fash
as If it carried the light of heaven up
on its blade"
