Why We Should Vote for pinehot

Why We Should Vote for Pinehot
10 the Editor Of the Evcntno Public Ledger.
Sir-NOw is the time for men and
women to realize the value of clean
politics., II IL great question TO
KNOW II we at times elect men who are
wiling to give to tne people whom they
represent the best kind Of government.
we In the past have found men who
are not for the interest Of those who
helped put them in positions Of trust,
but are there simply for their own selfish
aim in life.
Inc man or woman to hold a poyi-
tion Of trust should be type who in
every way is looking out for the in
terest OF the public. He should be en-
dOwed with qualities that will produce
the finest kind of government. and his
aim should be to give the people a square
deal.
We cannot afford to place any one in
office who does not possess those quail
fications. for at this time. while we are
going through a period Of recons,ru,.
tiOn. IL is most vital to a state or
nation that the right kind of men are
elected.
Pinchot is such a man. II we put him
to an acid test we find he is one who
has always tried to serve his fellow. mon.
His reputation is proof Of that fact.
SO let us take the election seriously.
We must not elect men who jeopa rt,lze
the very form of government which we
claim to be the highest and best.
In this twentieth century, when the
world is In such a tumult. II IL most
essential that we make sure we are
placing men who are for the people,
that this nation might live.

NEGROES GOING NORTH.

Another negro migration seems to have started similar to the one occurred during the war boom From various parts of South they leaving in large numbers for industrial cities of the North The exodus has noticed especially in Georgla and Alabama but it shows signs of becoming general
 The cause is the as it was the last tune. It is economic as migration usually are With business revving, there is shortage of hands in m dustry Wages are rising accordingly starting with unskled labor, which recently got 20 per cent increase in the Steel Trust.
 It is natural, perhaps inevitable, but in many ways regretable. The unfortunate results of southern negroes crowdng into northern cities during the last industrial boom well known Ccngested dlstflcts became more congested bad housing resulted Tn pad health and there were lamentable social and criminal complications Many the negroes sutfered seVerey from the climate They did profit as much as they ted of nigh cost of living.
 Housing facilities more ample now yet It will he difficult to accommodate and assimiate any large influx of the sort in most cities Moreover, the South itself nearly all of it's colored people, for agricultural and industrial work. A systematic effort will probably be made to hold them, if the movement continues.

 Mr. Babson gives four reasons why business Will be distinctly better throughout the next year, ana four why improvement, though steady, Will pc sow' rho first four are as follows: There is improvement in fundamental social, economic and spiritual cohal- tions the farmers have more to spend than they hao after the last harvest money is easier and the mercan tile situation The second four are shortage of labor abors attitude toward it's work the excess of manufacturing capacity over the amount or prouuc tjon required and the foreign situation.

 The trouble with the prosperity which followed immediately after the was that it was not well grounded Wealth which more slowly can be built upon a more lasting foundation.

AN UNMARRIED MOTHER.

An unmarried Eng!ishwoman and her child nave been admitted this country under the protection of a Kansas City It is explained that since the war many babies born abroad have been brought to America and adopted but their mothers have been left in Europe this it is intenued to give the young mother equal chance at happinss with her child.
 It has felt commonly that the unmarried mother of war presents different social prob ,e, from those of ordinary times and is deserving of more liberal treatment but the attitude toward thls young woman would be equally justified at any tlme
 Much has done to tighten the burden Of illicit motherhood but chance at normal open life and happiness backed by strong friends is too often denied It is stressed in this the mother was in no sense vicious that single mistake should not be allowed to wreck her life. There every to believe that she will justify the trust reposed in her
 This policy of practical Kindness and confidence could be initiated often than it is, publicly and privately, without danger Of putting premium on loose behavior.

l Los Angeles, Dec. o.-Mrs. Made lynn Connor Oberchain and Arthur Courtney Burch, indicted more than year ago for the murder of J. Belton Kennedy, were released yes terday.
 Burch, however, immediately was rearrested on an insanity warrant issued by Judge John W! Shenk as the result of an affidavit made by Burchs chief attorney, Paul w. Schenk. Madolynn was free to go wherever she wished.
 District Attorney Thomas Lee Woolwine moved for the dismissal of the charges against Burch and Mrs. Oberehain yesterday afternoon, following a conference with the judge and Attorney Schenck. He gave as his reason the fact that five juries had tried the issues ill the case, and had been unable to reach a verdict He felt it was useless to try the. case again.

 Charges of this sort have been made a good many times The combination of Russia and Germany mas been pointed out as possibility, even where no direct ob.,oas have been made The Mail goes further, sv- ing specific details to prove it's assertions.
 Even allowing for the political underpay which cbaraeterizes the entire European situation, there has been so much smoke about Russo-German alii- acc that difficult to believe that there IS not at esst enough fire to call for vigilance lest it burst into q confagration.

NEW TIMES. NEW FACTS.

Professor See, government astronomer at Mare Island Cal has announced his discovery of the causes of gravitation and magnetism Both, he says are the product of long ether travelling through space as rapidly as those light He finds that both fofces commonly supposed pull in straight lines, pull by vertical spinning action instead lie mas pro'eu also that the whole magnetic system of earth has been pushed southward 200 miles by bodily displace- ment the magnetic poles
 These discoveries will not have any immediate revolutionary effect on family national life, but they are important just the same Nobody can fore tell in what way their practical application may aid humanity. Vital in themselves, they are equally important in showing. the professor points out that physical discovery IS no more exhausted today than geographical and oceanic discovery was before Coumbuss voyage. There is still unlimited tied for investigation and discovery and the application of their results to the of mankind.
 The constant evidence of science that old orders change and that facts long accepted in the physical and scientific world have be discarded should en- courage men to understand how like changes do and should come human relations with increased knowi- edge understanding. It is just as foolish to cling to old. hide bound, narrow traditions in one as m the other.
