The Optinist
BY Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

Copyright, 1916. Star Company.
The fields were bleak and sodden. Not
a wing
Or note enlivened the depressing
wood;
A soiled and sullen, stubborn snow
drift stood
Beside the roadway. Winds came NUT
tering
OF storms to be, and brought the
chilly sting
OF icebergs i'm their breath. Stalled
cattle mooed
Forth plaintive pleadings for the
Earth's green food.
No gleam, no hint of hope in any
thing.
The sky was black and ashen like the
face
OF some poo. wretch who drains life's
cup too fast.
Yet, swaying to and fro. as il to fling
About chilled Nature its 1.-THE arms of
grace,
Smiling, with promise in the wintry
blast
The optimistic Willow spoke of Spring.

THE STATE FROM DAY TO DAY

The Kitchen Klub of Warren held
their regular thimble social Tuesday
evening at the home of Miss Flossie
Branch. The hostesses were Miss
Branch and Mrs. Wager. We wonder
how important a part the thimble
actually played.
The Cemetery Association of the
same town has likewise met and it
Is said that there will be no dividends

Speaking of the dear departed. esti-
mates show that there have been twice

rington and Warwick townships es-
caped a visit from both the stork and
the Grim Reaper. Better get in the
swim, you WIS and accomplish some
thing.
The Punxsutawney Spirit proves its
right to the name when it speaks out
in its editorial voice, loudly as it can,
in denunciation of a Yale professor
who made the comparative statement
that it is less of an insult to the flag
to spit on it than to spill American
blood on 1t. 1t would be interesting
to ascertain the political attitude of
the Spirit DetOfe judging tne merlls

This is Clean-Up and Paint-Up

If the army meets with any grave
disaster in Mexico the fault must be
lodged at the door of the Wilson ad-

years of "watchful waiting" during

be nonpartisan between all inter

every question.-Newspape report

With Governor Brum baugh away
presumably in Philadelphia or Atlantic
City. for birthday holiday, the center
OF political interest shifted from this
city to-day and only Attorney General
Brown was on the job looking after
the managing end of the Brumbaugh
campaign. The Governors mail con-
tinues to be we'll filled with letters
commenting his course, although it is
pretty broadly intimated about the city
that all OF the mail received does not
approve or his candidacy. Mr.. Brown
said to-day that he expected the list
or Brumbaugh candidates for delegate
to be ready on Monday. The papers
are coming in and are being gone over
to see If they are in form. The Attor-
ney General refused to talk about re-
ports that some eleventh hour changes
had been made in the Brumbaugh
slate which have been flying about the
last twenty-four hours.
National Committeeman Henry G.
Wasson is expected here within a day
or so to talk over matters with Mr..
Brown. He will probably bring the
Western Pennsylvania petitions. Thus
far nothing has been said at the Capt.
tol about the possibility of a clash
between the law and the candidacy of
Public Service Commissioner Magee
for national delegate and the silence
regarding that matter is as profound
as about the Oliver letter.
Among the nominating petitions
filed for House of Representative
nominations, which are coming to the
Capitol in bales, are for denomination
of Representatives Samuel A. Whit
aker, PhoeniXville, chairman of the
judiciary special committee of the last
House; George w. Williams, Wells
boro, who was sponsor for the Gov
ernor's local option bill; H. II. Brosius,

BUENOS AYRES. Aug. 1.-(By
mail)-When Hipolito Irigoyen takes
the oath Of Office October 18th as pres
ident of Argentine. his country will
start on one Of the biggest expert
ments ever undertaken by a republic
DR.. Irigoyen will head the first rad
ical administration in Argentine.
What the doctors idea Of radical.
ism" is. nobody knows. He has made
no speeches. He has written almost
nothing. He has never defined his po.
sition. What he intends to do, as
president, not one Of his countrymen
can guess. Nobody knows whether he
is Pan-American. The radical party
was organized in Argentine to fight
for fair elections. It has never had
any other platform.
I'VE have ideals" leading members
OF the party say. "but no program. E"
There are even reports that DR.. Iri.
,goyen will issue manifesto soon dis.
solving the party itself. now that an
honest ballot. as he. is said to believe,
has been guaranteed. This, however.
Is mere surmise. The doctor was
elected president because majority
of the voters trusted him, personally.
implicitly and blindly. Those who be.
lieve in him consider him Argentine's
greatest man. His opponents regard
him as extremely dangerous. and look
forward to his administration with
the greatest misgivings.
DR.. Irigoyen is about 60 years OF
age. a tall. powerfully-bdilt, imposing
man. and very dark. His blood Is
Spanish Basque. with slight Indian
strain. some say. The new president
began life poor. He ia self-educated,
but did his work SO well that today he
is highly cultivated man.
Most prominent South Americans
possess some academic degree en-.
titling them to the prefix of doctor"
before their names. Irigoyen is spok.
en- Of as doctor" because he is prom
inent. The title is one of courtesy.
He lacks the degree. He is now very
rich. His wealth was accumulated in
successful land transactions. BY oc.
crpation he is ranchman 4n a huge
scale. Part of his time he spends on
his "estancia" in the country; the
rest at his very modest residence in
Buenos Ayres.
For long time. for pure recreation.

THE RAILROAD CONTROVERSY

nj OTHING can be gained by the
~ interference of commercial lr.
panizations. Business men and Sip
pers generally in the controversy now
going on between the railroads and
the employees. The problem is now
up to the president and congress, and
they should be allowed to work out
some solution without outside pres.
sure.
Everyone realizes that a strike such
as is contemplated by the railroad en-
ployes would be one Of the greatest
calamities that could befall this coun-
try. 1t would be disastrous to every
industry and every class. While the
American people believe in arbitra-
ton. they just as strongly believe in
the eight hour day as the basis from
which all wages must be figured.
There can be no arbitration of the
eight hour day. 1t is the recognized
basis on which all work for the gov
trnment is figured. as well as that of
the majority Of the big and small cor
porations employing labor.
The president attempted to reach a
settlement Of this problem two years
ago, but the results secured throU Oh
arbitration were unsatisfactory to the
employees. as is evident from the pres.
ant controversy The isSuo muSt no
met squarely at this time. and solu-
Ion found that will be lasting. The
eight hour day must be recognized
eventually by all employers Of labor.
and then it is up to congress to enact
such legislation as will enable su III
disputes to be settled in the future
without jeopardizing the business ani
prosperity Of the whole country.
