president Hon. Jonathan Bourne. Jr.

ers.
Protest against the effort of Mr..
Henry Ford to force his way into the
United States Senate in spite of his
reputation by the people of his state.
is not based upon any personal pre-
judice against Ford. II is purely n
maintenance OF the principles and prac
tices of representative government.
Mr. Ford does not represent the
governmental ideas of the people OF
Michigan in any respect He is free
trader. while great majority of the
people of Michigan are protectionists.
He is a pacifist. while the people Of
the state believe in nggressively as
serting and defending the rights OF
the nation when infringed upon by any
other nation. He tanes no interest In
public affairs as evidenced by his
statement that he voted for Garfield.
although Garfield was elected presi
3ent before Ford was Of age. The peo
pie OF his state want man In Wash

est in public affairs and who has
shown his patriotism In very prac

The upkeep Liar.
Why do some persons make foolish
assertions
And try to put over such juvenile
stuff
There's no hesitation or reiteration,
Its always a case of unvarying
bluff
I'm getting" says al, thirty miles
to a gal;
The tires I'm using you notice
have run
Without punctures or bruises in the
tubes of the shoes
Exactly twelve thousand, four hun
dred and one
THE car drive gets at least twenty
five"
Says Jim with a frank and ingen-
ious air;
And believe me, I've spent iustexact-
ly on cent
In year and half for minor re-
pair.
And SO it will go. every one that you
know
Falls into the habit of verbally
cunning,
And hides like a crime all the money
and time
That are spent for the usual re
pairing and running.

Denver. Feb. 14.-Many concerns
that borrowed heavily from the public
before the war are in an unsettled
state, the railroads, because nobody
knows what their future situation is
to be; many public utilities, because
greatly increased operating costs re-
fleet more or less on their future
credit; big industrials. because they
are in a transitory state from war to
peace production. They are not in a
position TO undertake big extensions
and improvements involving heavy
borrowings. For the time being the
government is not appealing to the
public for funds.
So there is sort of hiatus in the
thrift campaign. But there should not
he. That campaign should go right on
with posters. advertisements, snappy
speeches and all the instruments of
appeal to public attention. If the
nation had one hundred to gain by
thrift during the war. it has at least
seventy-five to gain now. The appeal
should not drop from one hundred to
five or to zero.
During the war the government be-
came almost the sole applicant for the
public savings. It urged saving to
meet its needs and so did an educa-
tional work of immense value. The
pupils are still here Government
should not dismiss the school. Other
agencies should go on with the lesson
too. There should be no blank in the
continuous. intensive campaign of
thrift

PULLING FOR THE FAIR.

Tomorrow morning delegation Of Paatka citizens
VIII go Jacksonville urge the centennial exposition
committee to consider Paatkas advantages site for
the holding of the centennial.
This is the first definite effort that Paatka has made
for anything big in great while
The immensely CT the proposition is such that many
of those who have long since turned their toes hgura-
lively speaking dismissed its consideration with a shrug
Of the shoulders and a knowing wink
They, such men IS these drones in the hive.
With such men hanging around its neck Palatka will
suffer the fate of many other cities which have permit
ted opportunity to knock the door continuously and Of
ten without answer.
But there is a new spirit developing here 1t is a
spirit of cooperation. 1t is fostered by who couple
enthusiasm with patience. Of whose vision opens
their perspective growing and prospecting Paatka and
development of its and location advantages
PaIatka may not get the centennial. 1t is barely
possible that the commission will decide that the people Of
the entire state are sufficiently interested to
the expenditure Of money that will be required to make 1t
success
But there is one thing certain The effort made by
Paatka will have been altogether in vain The city
will have established itself least holding the door
open to opportunity 1t will have proven to the rest Of
the that it does appreciate its advantages and
that is ready to exploit them 1t will mean much for
the future of the city whether this enterprise succeeds
1a"s.
The delegation which goes to Jacksonville will not be
limited in number Every citizen who spare the time
is urged to join it. There is strength in numbers. The
commission will be impressed by large delegation
perhaps than by carefully prepared resume of ia
cties for handling the exposition. Let's pull for the
fair and after have bitten off The chunk let's chew it.
These are days when perspiration must follow insp-
ration if to realize. We have the inspiration.
Perspiraton will bring consummation.
