millions that some men pile up at the expense Of health and
friends and all the things that make old age comfortable
and happy as well as Ggni6ed
How much better of, for instance must be Mrs Mar

care and Toll she put INTO them, able to dream dreams
and view life with the spirit Of youth. than are the men
and women who, although they have wealth or fame
or real power, neglected the opportunity to lean how to
grow old gracefully
Indeed most business men would be the better in many
ways for the study Of the Life philosophy Of this spnshdy
little old woman whose animated talk at the Frst Baptist
Sunday school on her experiences and sensations IN an az

Sunday in the churches Of the city. They say age looks
back Mrs. Hunter still looks forward. She retains
freshness Of intellect which enables her to recognize that
progress IS one Of the natural laws Ghe world would have
sursed forward great many decades during the past two
years if this type Of mind were more common among states
men in Europe and in this country.

Editorial Comment
Ion Current Subjects

LINCOLN, TOO, CONFESSED.
From The Sun and New York Harold.
A few days ago we commented
cheerfully upon the great Democratic
discovery Of Senator Hardtngs con
fession Of lack OF confidence in him
self-that part Of a speech made IN
1917 In which he said, on being &C
cused OF Presidential ambitions:
II should like 1t said, since this
question has been raised, that l
think 100 well Of my country 70
wish one OF such incapacity In so
exalted a position"
A New Jersey reader, Mr.. Vincent
Wierman, Of Camden, writes to US as
follows:
I'm 1858 an editorial friend Of
Lincoln wrote him that he would
like to talk TO him on the subject
Of announcing his name for the
Presidency. Lincoln's reply was,
In part: I must In candor say !
do not think myself fit for the
Presidency This you will tind
more fully In The True Abraham

Lincoln wrote practically the same
confession to Samuel Galloway on
July %, 1853: II must say DO not
think myself lit for the Presidency
Later that same year, In o letter U

preme Court Of Appeals, which Will be

tive books ct the polls regarding their
party affiliations.
It will b. tested on four different
petitions for writs Of maudamus, and
the List may be increased ebfore the
meeting Of the court While the cases
before the court involve the nomina-
ton Of county officers in Wyoming
and Berkeley counties, It might be

candidates for state Offices a well IN

votes must be thrown out In precincts

What People Say
and Some Side Remarks

Former President Taft. who was
brought here for a lecture under the
auspices Of the Fairmont Normal
School, has dropped a chip Of cheer
for the thirsty. Mr.. TAFT, interview
ed in Chicago, ophed that there
would be neither wet nor dry plank
In the Democratic platform but e1-
pressed the belief that reasonable
and commor-sense' legislation, prob
ably permitting light wine and beer,
would, In the near future, make the
wet and dry fight q quiet, orderly and
inobtrusive corpse. The former presi-
dent minated that he, personally,
did not have q high regard for the
eighteenth amendment, saying: a
"But since It's the law believe IN
obeying It to the letter"
Mr.. Taft pointed out that congress
had the right to fix the alcoholic
contents Of beverages affected BY the
amendment as well as regulate the use
of intoxicants and punish violations Of
law. To use his very words:
ut Is Just as easy for congress
to say 2 per cent or 4 per cent or
any reasonable per cent as to say
one.half Of ! per cent. Congress
should, and undoubtedly will, be
guided BY reason. common sense,
and the wishes Of the majority Of
the people. A drastic, unreason-
able law defeats its own purpose.
mo doubt there are those who
would like to make the manufac-
ture or sale Of whiskey q capital
crime. Such law wouldn't be
worth the time It took TO write It.
The people would rebel against 1t.
And that Is true Of any Law bear
ing on the subject. It must be
sane, sensible, and In harmony
with the wishes Of the people,"
