CLEVELAND. Jan. 2S--Is a girl
privileged to refuse to marry man
who appears for the wedding in his
working clothes, overalls and all?
Nellie Bazik, nineteen, thought so and
did so, and she appealed to Police
Prosecutor Russick to order the man
to stop calling on her.
I'D rather go back TO work as a
stenographer," said Miss Bark. the n
me as to show up for the wedding IN
ordinary working clothes"
Miss BaZik was to have been mar

there in white dresses and Sunday

was to have been my husband came in.
One look was enough. | put my foot

Tumulty is part of the administration, but
L wouldn't be sure he's an asset
O'Shaughnessy Sullivan, Malone, Costello,
Ford, Burke, and many other 4th Degree
Knights Of Columbus are part of the ad-
ministration, but it is not yet evident that they
are not liabilities
Our Republican negro Judge, of the CITY
Court Of Washington is very much part Of
the administration, but [ doubt his value as
a Democratic vote etter
Holders Of government positions did not
re-elect Harrison, nor Taft, nor did they pre-
vent the defeat of Cleveland in 1885,
Polk, Pierce, John Q. Adams, Buchanan,
Fillmore, and Tyler did not find that APP
pointees were such valuable assets.
Nor did Van Buren, do so, although he was
considered frst-class party manipuIator
1t you must re-elect President because be
and his crowd are en-, you never could get rid
of sorry incumbent until he had had two
terms.
(12) Hughes has dragged the ermine Of
the Supreme bench into party politics"
We Democrats did the same thing with
Judge Parker, and,are preparing now to take
Judge Samuel Seabury off the Supreme
Bench and run him for governor Of New
York
Seabury supported me, in 1904, and now
the New York World is supporting Seabury!
His nomination by the Democrats seems
assured, and his election is almost certain.
(130 "Wilson called the bluff of the Hy-
phenated and placed Americanism in his
platform"
Heavens above Wilson never uttered a
word on Americanism and against the Hy-
phenated, until Roosevelt had roared himself
hoarse about it, and forced Wilson to follow,
just as Wilson followed Roosevelt on Pre-
paredness.
AS for Americanism in the platform, it got
into the Republican platform four years ago.
The Princeton Professor is four years late.
In fact, he hasn't travelled step, except as
the Republicans went ahead, and blazed the
way
l14.) Republicans "are hard pressed for a
campai On ISSUE"
Yes; it is difficult to differ from man who
agrees with you; or to walk away from man
who steps right into your own tracks
That's what Wilson has been doing, and
that's why there is no material difference be-
tween his policies and those of the Republican
party.
But is that a reason for re-eecting Wilson?
Is it good cause for Democratic happiness?
The Triton sage repeats what Tom Hefin
and the New York World are saying, namely;
that the Republicans cannot find fault with
Wilson.
If he has left them bereft of an issue,
a0hat's gone eOSth those a0tich formerly pitted
the taOo parties against each other?
There can be but one answer:
Wilson has done everything that the Re-
publican party could have done, had Re-
publican been in the White House.

This stock in the Federal land bank amounting in
this case to $50, would be held by the national

ment of the loan, but the borrower would be en-

praised, and still another for having the

The example given, is a loan of 81 900, and
[ will use the same illustration.
The farmer makes written application to
become a stakeholder in the land bank: If he
is .. KID, he is taken In, and so is his land
On the books, he gets a loan of 81 900
In his pocket, he gets much less fol-

$25,00 will be a small fee to the appraisers,

$3.50 may cover the cost of recording the
papers.
Now then, we have an expense account Of,
say, $102.50 charged up to the loan, and We
pay per cent on what we don't get.
Let US say that Uncle Rube actually gets
his paws on 5000 of that loan-what is the
rate of interest he pays?
$500 at Z per cent costs $63. 81 900 at
per cent costs $50.
Bless your pet monkey! What's the good
of an enormously expensive new Department
to our Federal System, and vexatious mess
of red-tape for the borrowers, when the
utmost possible saving is one per cent.
That amount Of interest on 81 900 is ten dol
lars; and any man who needs money and can
get it from Land Bank, had rather save
trouble and delay, by borrowing from the
local bank at his door,
The Expert who works for the Georgia
Brahmin says Of the Land Bank, qohich the
farmer IS to gradually buy, in per cent in
stallments:
eff the bank goes broke, the man who borrows
money will be held responsible for the amount OF
money he borrows plus the amount of stock he
subscribed for, and in can he be made to

In other words, Uncle Rube can't possibly
lose any more than his money and his land

this 9Th reason for Wilson's reelection.

The Triton sage has been reading the New

I read it, too, but do not take it as Gospel,

Why should the Kaiser want Wilson'S de-
feat?
Are they not on the sweetest terms, at
present?
Did not the Pope send his ambassador,
Bonzano, to Woodrow, and make friends of
him and William Hohenzollern?
Didn't Wilson quit trying to get satisfac-
ton about the Latsitamia?
Didn't he cease to insist upon knowing how

punished?
Didn't Wilson remain blind to the evidence
which convinced everybody that Bernsdorff

And now, that the Pope has smoothed over

The Triton sage seems to mean that the
10th reason for re-electing the Princeton
pedagogue is, that all the Englishmen,
Frenchmen, Italians, Russians, and A. t. AS

wilson's cabinet. with the possible
exception OF Bryan But, aside from
the question Of Secretary Daniels fit
ness or unftness for the position, he

things during his tenure Of Office. The
navy had become one Of the most snob-

in America; daniels shirt sleeve meth

introduction of educational courses
has finally made It possible for a man
to join the navy as an ordinary seaman

has ruthelessIy broken them one after

BOOK AGENTS.

OWN ANA**f 4 -
The editorial in the Ferederick News
under tie above caption. strikes re-
sponsive chord in our editorial breast
Br'er News must have been pestered
recently by the genus homo. as we
have. and he delivers himself as
follows:
"One OF the common experiences of
daily life is the call Of the book agent
Many Of these yoluble visitors do not
seem open TO any kind Of advice
others are young people working for
an education. or persons having some
grounds for friendly treatment. Per-
haps these would like TO know why, as
a type. book agents are more or less in
disfavor. There are many of them
who, If you don't take time 10 look
over their wares, will intimate that
you are discourteous. ignorant and OBJ
stinate. This creates a dislike for the
whole tribe of house TO house sole
itors. II will be remarked that a so
licitor must be aggressive or he would
never win attention Still there are a
few people who can be bIuffed. bullied
or aouced into buying things.
"rhe caustic reception so often
given 20 canyassers is perhaps due to
The feeling that they do not perform
useful service. In the case of books,
YOU may not be able TO get just the
same thing in store But usually
YOU can get something quite as good
for less money, the agents commission
being saved. There are some kinds OF
sales work that can perhaps be done
in no other way Some people have a
natural genius for canvassing. and are
urbane resouceful and never arouse
antagonism. In many cases their
abilities would be better rewarded in
some other field of labor.
"As a whole, newspaper advertis-
ing is far cheaper and much more
efficient. Young people who want to
earn money for an education would
usually do better to offer the public
some service that 1t really wants. If
they will work on farms or wait on
tables, or perform some task for
which there is demand, they will
find their position pleasanter and us
ually the rewards greater. If they are
set on canvassing. let them remember
that politeness is the foundation of
success in any calling. II few min
utes courteous and pointed talk does
not interest person in a book or
other article, they would better quit
and try some one else"

ORATORS AND NAVAL EXPERTS.

Is ii fair in Secretary Daniels to
screw down the oratorical lid on Off
GERS of the navy? Is it for the best
that at a critical moment like this he
should subject them to oratorical
silence?
The country is submerged in sug-
gestions for preparedness. Every
statesman has suddenly become a
naval expert. Senators and Represen-
atives and jobless laymen who, a short
time ago. hardly knew Springfield
ride from coming tower. now dis
cuss authoritatively the relative value
of submarines. scout cruisers. battle
cruisers and super dreadnaughts.
They have mastered all the ordnance
secrets that it took the naval author
tiles years to explore, and they can
deliver decisions on the imperative
needs of defense than a rapid-firer
can be discharged. The country now
needs orators to make up for the
shortage due to the number that have
taken to the higher realms of STRAIT
egg, armament. naval construction
and engineering. So far as we know.
only the navy is left as a source Of
oratorical raw material.
In the sacred name of eloquence.
Secretary Daniels should revoke his
rule, restore the balance and keep
the country from getting top heavy
with national-defense experts by or
dering all navy officers TO the lecture
platform or the dinner dais. American
elouuence must and shall be preserved.
