LOVING THoTs.
BY Chas. p. Wilson.

There are two things we may do
with our lives. We may drift aimless.
ly on like a rudderless ship or we
may take firmly hold of ourselves and
make rapid progress 1t is a splen-
did thing to know that we may rely
upon certain method of thinking and
acting which will produce good re.
suits. Again it is a splendid thing to
know that we have nothing in the uni
verse to fear but ourselves and that
no possible harm can come to us ex-
cept as the result OF our own thoughts
and acts.
One of the first things we should
do is to stop evil thinking of every
description for every instant we are,
by this mental force, molding our fu-
ture. We should check all unkind
thought of everybody. If we cannot
love our enemies, we can at least stop
hating them, an das surely as we do
that we shall finally have no enemies

If a man sends against you thought
of hatred and you feet it with a like
thought, this destructive, disintegrat-
ing thought-force is intensified and
you become its defenseless target. If
you meet a thought of hatred sent
against you with a kindly thought II
does not affect you but reacts upon
its sender. Kink thoughts are shield
which the arrows of malice cannot
penetrate. Think kindly of all and
nothing can harm you.

Chicago, July 15.-Lieutenant Gov
ernor John q. Oglesby, candidate for
the republican nomination for gov
ernor OF Illinois, last night opened his
campaign with q declaration Of war
upon the Lundin- Thompson machine
which is supporting Len Small for
governor.
In. statement which breathed the
spirit Of his father, the celebrated
war governor, Mr.. oglesby went af-
ter the Thompson-Lundin forces
hammer and tongs. He accused them
OF having bankrupted tho city Of Chi
cago, hoisted Its tax rate, and boost
ed its rents. They were now he de-
clared, engaged In an attempt to an
mex the rest OF the stateto the terri
tory which they dominated and build
up q statewide Tammanyized ma
chine.
He warned the farmers Of the state
that success Of the Thompsonites
would mean higher taxes in the state
and urged them to rally to protect
their homes from possible confisca-
tion.
The lieutenant governor also went
after the doctrines pronounced by the
Thompson forces in the platform re-
jected by the republican state con-
ventior. He denounced the Thompson
doctrines as vicious half truths"
Thompson's war record was referred
to In passing.
The oglesby statement also \con-
taired an announcement OF his Views
on questions which are likely to be
issues in the 1920 campaign.

hasn't worked badly.
Labor Is intolerant. the rest Of us
are intolerant. They swallowed up
everybody else. because they had Il

gether. That was Inevitable. l don't
see why we should fly Off in opposite
directions and go to fighting each
other now. We belong together"
"The question of Senator LalFol-
lette's accepting the nomination was
uppermost," Roe continued.
HE was asked to become u caudi-
date finally upon q platform which
contained some things of which he
did not approve. AS an honest, CRATE
full man, he could not accept, and
think even the labor men will respect
his stand"
Christensen Would Stand Back.
Farley Z. Christensen, the fusion
nominee for president, interrupted
Roe. Il was drafted for the farmer
labor party" he said. "You and I
wanted Senator LaFollette. Under

get him, l am not in your way.F
There was q demonstration.
Il am not going to prove disloyal,
ungrateful. unfaithful. especially not
to the working men who nominated
me-" Christensen declared. IF you
can do anything to get them, count
me cut."s
He then left the hall.
Here was the mistake" continued
Roe. Each side on the conference
committee working on the platform
did not try to see how much it could
snurrender to get oa a common
ground, but each tried to see how
much of it's own dogma and doctrine
1t could get the other side to adopt,
Chairman Hopkins interrupted Mr..
Roe to urge the members of the COM
mittee OF forty4eight to stay thru the
day. Only by SO doing could they
accomplish intelligent results. The

had several disputes with her hus-
band over Mrs. De Cordova.
