They might not have u very big
hearing of Republicans in this city
but the Democrats have been fighting
so hard that it would really be a
little joy for them to attend real
Republican scrap.
Back of the challenge to Harreld is
his vote for the seating of Berger
and about as follows is the Blake
challenge:
Mr.. Harreld, raised to congress
by Republicans, justifies his vote
on Berger after Berger's eXpul-
sion from congress and his convic-
ton of sedition by jury. What
was Mr., Harreld's conception of
the dignity of congress?
do you want to approve seat
ing a convicted traitor in congress
while he prosecutes appeals for
three years? Can any Republican
speak, before the people for
Harreld, or the ticket he is on?
DO other candidates want to be
on Harreld-for-Berger ticket?
Mr. Harreld advertises he is a
winner What has he won for
the Republican party except a
charge of taint of Bergerism? Shall
we admit that? How many Repub-
licans could vote 'er straight with

SELF.MADE MEN

There must be a wonderful feeling
of satisfaction when a man can look
back through the past and review the
road he has travelled. When he sees
The thorns of poverty and the briers
of temptation, he has by his own
hands trimmed away and he can, with
self.satisfaction, at least, say that he
is a self.made man.
When faith has supplanted doubt,
when plenty has uprooted poverty,
when virtue has vanqulshed vice,
when desire for self-ease has been
exchanged for an inspiration for con-
tinuous work, when he has really
built life Of success-there must be
q feeling Of genuine satisfaction.
OF all the terms that have been
misused none of them stand out in
more decided relief than the word
Of "selfmade" We apply it to men
who have supplied advantages that
their parents could not give them
and who have won success. But no
boy ever made "A success that did not
have to do his own work.
The sons of the wealthy are not

When they succeed ii is taken as a
matter of course and their parents
are given the credit. When they fail
they are condemned for not taking
advantage of their opportunities. When
the poor boy succeeds he meets with
praise and help and when he fails
il is conceded that he ne'er had
chance and is not condemned.
The truth Of the matter is that
il is just as difficult for the wealthy
10 succeed as for the poor and pos
sibly more difficult Self-reliance is
about the first virtue that enters
into success and the poor boy who
must swim or sink develops this virtue
with more ease than the boy who
has rich dad to lean upon.
The fight against poverty is no
harder than the fight against wealth.
The influence Of both must be elimi-
mated before success begins to come.
The boy without money may reach
the conclusion that he has no chance
and never receives an inspiration to
try The boy Of wealth is more likely
10 conclude that his success and for
tune have been made for him and he
is hypnotized into making no effort
for himself.
One is just as fatal as the other, one
IS just as hard 10 overcome as the
other and there should be no differ.

1t is Us true as gospel that every

from study, from overcoming him
