By THOMAS R. MARSHALL

Former Vice. President of the United states. The trouble with us reformers is that we act like little children in garden. we plant the seed at sundown, expecting to go out in the morning and find it in ful fiowers Certain things seem to us to be so selftevident we cannot understand delay over their accep- tance by others We are not unlike Theodore Parker, who, once undertook the reformation | of Boston The morning after the election, when he found he had lost out, Rafker was moved to say that there was only one differ ence between himself and God, and that was
 that God could wait.
 In some particulars, most of us possess
 spark of the divine, according to Parkers differentiation. We can wait when itfcomes to impressing upon the minds of the; people things which we believe are for the common veal, We do wait for political campaign, when every one naturally is suspicious of every one else, to begin the propagation of those reforms which we conceive tofbe essen tial to good government. We do not take the time between campaigns to begin the slow educative process. Whether this is our fault or the fault of the people it is not for me to determine Whether it is possible to have a portion of every day of every year devoted | by every citizen to the contemplation Of problems of government no one, perhaps, can say.

 Just now many persons are frying anew to reform the old Republic and its public life.
 The candidate of the party to which have given unfaltering allegiance throughout my life is informing the public that the great
 need of the hour is common honesty. The
 Republican candidate for president is declar- ing that notwithstanding the frightful ex-
 amples of crookedness and dishonesty in high
 places the need of the hour is common sense.
 And the cry of the third party--I hope this will not be amiss in view of what am by
 birth, tradition and training-is common bunk. Of course, we need common sense leverywhere now as always and as an acade-
 mic statement of facts we need common hon. esty, but as sin is what the other fellow does, so common sense and common honesty mark eur own careers and leave us free to criti- cize as we please the other fell0w.s
 Personally, wish that everybody would
 conclude to march under the Democratic ban
 ner, but the experiences of lifetime convince
 me that everybody will do no such thing.
 What l am particularly disturbed about at
 the present moment is what may be the re-
 suit of the thoughtless conduct of countless
 good persons I hope that the contest for
 common honesty and common sense will keep up, but I am fearful that private honesty
 and individual nonsense may lead many good men and women in the wrong direction. 1t is to be hoped that votes will be cast next month for principles, regardless of the effect upon the interests of the individual voters. But in this hour of peace it may be that this

THE TRUE PROGRESSIVE.

From my point of view he only deserves to be called a progressive who cannot see 6 wrong persist witl.Out an effort to redress 1t, or a right denied without an eff0ft 70 protect it: who feels a deep concern tor sho economic welfare of the United States, bus realizes that the making of better men anu women is 8 matter greater stlli Wno thinks of every governmental policy fiRns rather than upon material things; who be- ieves profoundly in human equality ana detests privilege in whateVer form OF an whatever disguise. and who finds the true test of success in the welfare of the many and not the prosperity and comfort of the few.

On receipt of ruling from the war department that Reserve Officer could not serve as presidential elector' Major Phil B. Whitaker, Democratic elector for Tennessee, wired his resignation from the Reserve Corps! It was not the public understanding that in becoming a member of the civilian military forces a citizen would surrender his political rights. It was the understanding that members of our military reserve are cltl. zens who lend themselves to the national plan of defense from patriotic motives and not to a forfeiture of any Of the rights of citizen.

work at the city market were too
