Of human events, this worthy cause
should be patronized literally.

Of human events, this worthy cause
should be patronized literally.
Business in this section is getting
better since the heavy rains and
both of our creeks are running day
and night.
A drove of crows hit on the fence
on Wildcat road yesterday and lined
up to watch the mail carrier 60 by.
Bob Houghton is engaged in cir
culating petition asking that the
space between the bars in the Snag-
town Jail be made much larger.
The Gimlet Creek saw mill was
closed yesterday indefinitely. This
is on account Of the engine getting
beyond control of Leonard Boulton,
the engineer, and running into the
creek, taking the saw mill with it.

subtle that the people do not
realize that they are being led
around by the nose, that they are
being herded like sheep, that they
are obcying the win Of the bosses
az every election
It is a difficult matter for any
man to secure even the humblcst
Of public Offices without first Sc
curing the approval Of the bosses,
and that approval renders him
unfit to Loyalty serve the people as
whole.
We would like to see different
system in vogue, and we would
like to see it make the start right
in this local community.
We would like to see the names
of every man who seeks Office
posted where the people can see it.
Then we would like to see every
voter make his own decision
without a single suggestion or a
word of advice from any other
person.
Then we might hope to find men
filing public Office because Of
efficiency, whereas now it is mainly
question of bosses and votes.
We are frank to admit that
occasionally good man slips into
Office even under this system. In
fact, we have had such men in
Office right in our own midst, and
we may have such again.
But we insist that the people
should be free to make their own
selections without persuasion or
interference from the bosses, for it
is our opinion that but few men
can be loyal to the people as
people and yet be satisfactory to
the bosses.
Some of these days the people
will awaken to a realization Of
their political power and the bosses
will cease to exist. They will be
just voters, as the rest of US
have been for these many years.
Speed the day and push it alongt

CLIPPINGS FROM THE

The old miser, living over in the
deserted house on the creek, has
decided to move his money to a bet
ter location. He is digging it up
from the place where he buried il
under the tree by the road, and
while he will not divulge its new
hiding place, Joe Klyman has seen
him covering up something at the
straw pile on Peavine Ridge. This
will be a splendid location, and a
safe place provided no one finds
out. y
George Whitman has decided to
wear a short coat all the time to
prevent himself from being arrested
for carrying concealed weapons in
his back pocket.

Every good citizen ought to be
equipped for the full discharge Of
his duty as a man. This is a gov
eminent by the people and the peo-
pie therefore ought to be ready at
all times to assist in the selection

of laws. You cannot do this until
you pay your poll tax.

near horde Of candidates spring
up for the various Offices within the
gift Of the people.
Some Of these are mentally and
morally competent, while others
are totally unfit.
Under our accepted theory Of
self government we are presumed
to select men with especial regard
to their qualifications, their in
tegrity, and their all round fitness
for the particular office in view.
That, though, is only theory.
In practice we seldom do anything
liof the kind.
In theory. the people are suppos-
ed to make their own selections,
without bias or coercion.
But they don't.
W. In practice the bosses, politely
btermed leaders, assemble in secret
land make their own selections, and
then proceed to ram them down
Bthe throats of the people who do
the voting.
In making these selections be-
hind closed doors the bosses (beg
pardon, the '1eadersv) give but
little heed to the mere matter OF
fitness or qualification. The one
Epredominating thought in their
minds is twill he be amenible to
our advice and suggestions7" The
next and only remaining problem
is that of delivering the votes.
In all of these proceedings the
people are not consulted, although
they perforce must foot the bills,
The only privilege accorded these
Sovereign people" is to vote, and
vote as they are told (beg pardon
again, as they are "advised').
The man who is good to the
bosses (shucks, we mean '1eaders")
can keep right on holding Office as
long as he continues to be good
to his masters, unless in the mean
time the people become so disgust
ed they literally kick him out.
And why is it sol
Very simple, Mr.. Voter, very
simple indeed.
Having held their secret conclave
and selected their puppet (beg a
hundred pardons, we mean "man")
The bosses sally forth with angel
faces and sing the praises Of their
Fido. They endow him with all of
the graces of the human race,
bestow upon him the wisdom of
Solomon, and advertise him far
and wide as "the hope of the
people,"
And because we 1.-THE people)
are not bosses (ahem leaders) ;
because we talk little and think
less; because we follow the "advice"
of the bosses instead of investi-
eating men and conditions our
selves-because Of all these things
we elect the tools Of the bosses
today and curse our system Of
government tomorrow.
Bosses are not confined to ma
| tional and state politics. They
flourish in every district, in every
county, in every township, and in
every city and village.
Bosses are everywhere, schem-
ing, wire pulling, enticing, debating,
forcing their will upon a people
whose will alone should be supreme.
Bosses do not like to be called
bosses. They prefer to pose as
loyal party leaders, whose "duty"
it is to guide "the people" in the
way they should go.

Mrs. Ford and her son left Detroit
at 7:10 o'clock Friday night and ar
rived here at 10 n. m. yesterday, going
Immediately to the Waldorf. where
they engaged a suite. They did not
register. When reporter called to
see Mrs. Ford she refused absolutely
to see any newspaper people"
This refusal probably is in line with
her determination not to see or talk
10 any more reporters at any time.
Before she left her home in Detroit,
which has been turned into a fortress
TO Withstand reportorial attack. Mrs.
Ford said over the telephone: after
what has been printed and the way
Mr. Ford has been treated, | do not
believe that | shall ever talk 10 a re-
porter again. If there is anything
more to be said M. Ford himself will
say It,"
On the trip East he porters on the
train were made ricl by tipping" Mrs.
Ford off whenever q Exporter appeared
on the scene. Mrs FORD could be seen
frequently hurrying TO another part OF
the train with liDs compressed and
stern look on her face, which boded no
good TO the unwary journalist. Edsel
Ford was Just as communicative as his
mother, and when asked any questions
invariably shrugged his shoulders and
said: "Nothin' doin', nothin' doin'."
