The modern word mugwump is de-
rived from the Algonquin "mug-
quomp." meaning great man. a
chief, and is said to have been used
among the Indians and whites Of
Massachusetts and Connecticut in the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries
The word was later used in a humor-
GUS, or satirical sense, and was ap.
piled to a person who thought him
self Of consequence and Importance
In this sense the word was long in
local use and often appeared in print
In u. S. political history the term was
first applied in 1884 to the Independent
members of the Republican party who

nees Of, the party for president of the
United States, and either voted for
the Democratic or Prohibition party or
abstalned from voting. The word was

NCA FAME AS ADMINISTRATOR
iir William Maeoreeor Will Long Be
Remembered for His Good Work
In West Africa.

Sir William Macgregor was not the
cast Of the bits of good luck which
his empire owes to the Scottish strain
t II. In the far-sundered areas of
Vest Africa and the Western Pacific
.e achieved distinction which will not
lass.
The world knew more of him as Pa
life high commissioner than as gov
rnor of Lagos, but to many Europeans
ia West Africa. and to those folk of
long memories. the African races, he
will always be Macgregor of Lagos, the
pioneer sanltarian who began proc
uses which have made Lagos a place
livnble for the European and more
llvable than ever before to It's teem-
ng African population.
The pedant may say that "clrcum-
Spice" scarcely applies where the bene-
actor has only cleansed air and roads
ind purified water sources; neverthe-
less, to no man could 1t be attached
more ftly than to Macgregor for his
work in that steady hive Of activity.
The natives had q real affection for
him. for they knew he believed in
them, and Africans, like most other
sons Of Adam, esteem that even above
GOOD drains and pure water. He had
very clear appreciation Of the ter
rible danger of German rule in the
tropics Just because of its thorough
ness.
There are endless stories of him on
the coast. One is Of an official who,
after a tour In the bush, told the gov
ernor of an exceptional juju he had
seen-"exactly like a human being,
sir, only, of course, Of wood"
"Nane sac exceptional" Macgregor
remarked, and followed 1t up with a
chuckling soliloquy. 1--WE seen some in
the service. "-Manchester Guardian.
