Senator Reeds Victory.
~, IL nzH- NJ


From the Dallas Ners.
The notion that Mr.. Wilson sought the
defeat OF Mr.. Reed in Missouri in the
belief that such an achievement would
make his influence regnant over the dem
ocratic party is more agreeable to the
prejudice Of those who dislike Mr.. Wilson
than to reason. 1t was personal resent
ment rather than political ambition that
MIR. Wilson was serving, undoubtedly, in
doing what he did to prevent the renomi.
nation Of MIR. Reed. There are other dem
ocratic senators who opposed as many
OF MIR. Wilson's policies as Mr.. Reed did.
and their political enterprises have not
been obstructed by Mr.. Wilson. But there
are no democratic senators who, in op-
posing Mr.. Wilson'S policies, betrayed
so much personal malignancy as Mr.. Reed
did. 1t was the temper Of his opposition,
and not the fact Of it, that Mr.. Wilson re-
seated in trying to bring about the de-
feat Of Mr.. Reed. Of this there can be
no doubt in the minds of those who are
capable Of contemplating Mr.. Wilson with.

But whatever Mr.. Wilson's motive, he
has failed in his effort. Mr.. Reed has
been rcnominated, though by majority
hardly large enough to give luster to his
victory. His victory will impair the in
Auence of Mr.. Wilson in the councils Of
his party. There is no doubt that it is

This, instead of being reprehensible

Consiancy, when it serves no good
purpose, ceases to be virtue and be-
comes a misfortune, il not a vice.
No statistics have been compiled on
the subject, but observation and evil

There have been three OF four young
women, each of whom, for a longer or

agon of her sex, bun he has got over
his infatuation and has married ano.h-

on his enterprise. Also il is probably
an equally good thing for the three or
four girls whom he did not marry.
That point settled. the manner of re-
fusal should weigh in the reception
thereof. Any man with fair share Of
common sense ought to know whether
he is snubbed or not; whether his suit

YOUR VALUATION

One Of the most interesting and profit.
able things that person can do is to
place himself in a corner and stand of
and view the result. This practice is a
safeguard against maladjustment. 1t is
also a good method by which one is able
10 understand the other persons point Of
view.
One should form the practice Of taking
an inventory Of his mental attitude at
least every few weeks in order to deter
mine toward what view Of life he is as.
suming.
A person is often called to show upon
what ground he stands. to show by his
actions that his principles of living are
right. For one to dream Of the good and
the true avails little. Action alone is of
consequence. Action is the only vehicle
by which one can absolutely prove that
his standards are right. II the mosI
right-ihinking man in the world sits in
a rocking chair all his life, he gets no
credit for his thoughts. Unless he gets
up and proves by his actions that his ideas |
are workable, people think that he has |
simply been taking a nap.
One of the certain ways TO prove to
ones sen that he is dreaming his time
away in a rocking chair or that on the
other hand he is measuring his life by pro- !
ductive action is to take stock Of himself.
II a man pauses occasionally to turn his
eyes inward, he will not be likely to fall
short OF the measuring tape which marks
the fruitfulness Of mans life.

Unfair Discrimination.
Milwaukee Leader.


Uncle Sam pays snnuities 10 retired
civilian employes-also retired military
employees.
The civilian employees are retired from
active service somewhere between the
ages Of 81 and 20, after they have ren.
dered from Is to 30 years service. In
the meanwhile they contribute 2h per
cent Of their salaries to the annuity fund
from which they are TO draw their an
nuiiies after retirement. In other words,
they pay their own annuities in ad-
vance out Of their salaries.
After retirement, these civilian en-
ployes get annuiiies ranging from $3.50
to $720 per year.
The military employees do not pay any
percentage Of their salaries into their
annuity fund. 1t all comes out Of the
government treasury.
Yet they have been getting several
times as much as civilian employees. And
bill was passed by Congress in juno
which increases their annuities still
more. Hereafter a retired colonel will
get $500 year. A retired lieutenant
colonel will get s4,3l25O per year. A
retired major will get s3,975 per year.
A retired captain will get s3,375 per
year. Furthermore, a military officer can
retire with the maximum annuity after
thirty years service, no matter what his
age. Ii is possible for him TO retire at
46, when he is perfectly capable Of earn
ing good salary al some other occupa-
ton.
