ADVICE TO EMBRYO POETS

First Kfferto Should Not Bo Directed to Subject* That Would Tort Genius. < Far, far ia R from our wish or in* tention to hurt anybody's feelings, but wo do wish to state, very, very gently, 'that one of the most difficult tasks a real poet, experienced and skilled in the practice of his art, could undertake, would be to write an adequate and- Atting poem on the loss of the Titanic. For anyone else to attempt it la to invite inevitable failure, and failure of a kind that—well, of a kind that it would be unkind. In the drcumstanoes, to characterise. To be deeply and sincerely moved is one of -the requisites for writing noble verse about a tragic episode in human history, but it is far from being the only requisite, and, with all respect for their emotions and intentions, we would suggest that those who have only a desire to express what they feel In regard to this calamitous event should do it otherwise than In verse. At least they should not try to get the verse printed, for by so doing they place upon the winnowers of metrical offerings the always painful duty to be cruelly kind. Surely, surely, surely, a first effort to write poetry should not be on a subject that would test all the powers of a long-tested genius.

LITTLE CHANCE TO OVEREAT

Kentuckian Visit* Grill Room of Now York Hotel and Ha* Hearty tt — After his brother had been In New York a little more than a year, a Kentuckian decided to pay him a visit Hoping to surprise Ms brother, the Kentuckian did not apprise his brother of his intentions. Arriving at nine o’clock in the morning, he asked to be directed to a good eating house. The taxicab pilot steered his course for the largest, costliest and most fashionable hotel grillroom on Broadway. Being a stranger in a strange land and hungry, the Bluegrass brother ordered a regular home meal. When he got the . check from the waiter Its size staggered him. He wasn’t accustomed to New York hotel prices. After verifying the correctness of his bill at the cashier’s desk and being Insulted by the waiter for tipping him twenty-five cents, the visitor started out to look for Ms brother, whose office he found about one o'clock. In response to Ms inquiry as to Ms brother's whereabouts, a clerk said: “He’s over at Blank’s hotel's new grillroom.'' “Go slow, friend, only a millionaire could overeat at the. Blank hotel I know, because I had breakfast there myself this morning.”

Gifts for Fillpino Tribesmen.

While traveling around among these people of th* mountains the giving of present* entero a great deal Into the methods of treating with them. A» a rule the gifts which are acceptable are mere trifles. Among the Ifugaos a custom formerly required them to wear In the hair a white rooster's feather on fiesta day*. More recently a strip of onion skin tissue paper an inch wide has been Introduced, and it to now the universal proeent from the secretary on Ms visit. These papers are worn as a sign of holiday, and after the fiesta is over they ar* carefully preserved till another occasion cMls them forth. The Ilongota and Callngas like beads, and a common bead of Imitation agate wMch is worth a few centavos In Manila has its value enhanced till it is worth 50 centavos in the hills. Scarlet cloth is also acceptable to the Ifugaos and Hongots, One of the very highest prises of all is the pearl oyster shell, and several of these are always taken along. A groat deal of discretion must be exercised in giving such presents, so a* not to cheapen them, nor to place them in the hand* of the wrong people.—Manila Time*.

Losing a King.

One of our naval officer* tell* of an incident that occurred when an American war vessel was lying at anchor in a European port, on wMch occasion it was visited by a monarch and hi* suite.. One of the member* of this suite, •*in ■ ii*tf.aifl_mn.t- In orzl/1 Im/m ar»4 ' tion*, with a big sword at Ms side and ■porting a huge mustache, wa* exploring the ship, and, being ignorant of _ things nautical, had leaned against the main-hatch windsall, mistaking it for a mast. Of what ensued the officer of the deck was informed by the boatswain's mate, who had smb the catastrophe and who broke the new* of it thus: “You will excuse me, sir, but ! think on* of them kings ha* foil down the main hatch, sir."—Harper's Magazine.

Cyrus A. Ball Writes From Mitehell, South Dakota.

The following letter was received from Cyrus A. Ball, under date of June 24, from Mitchell, S. Dak.: Editor Republican: 1 left Chicago on the evening of the 21st and arrived here at 9 p. m. the 22nd, all O. K. I find it to be a fine country, and crops look good. Corn is a little late but generally clean and is from three inches to knee high. It is dry now and a good rain would be appreciated. Business in Mitchell is full of life and wages run from $2 to $7 per day. I find that prices range high, the cheapest house rent being $lO per month and everything else in proportion.! think a man with a little nerve can do well out here, either on a farm or as a mechanic. There is sbrely a great layout here. I will remain here indefinitely with my son, Jesse, and then will visit Noble at Red Cloud, Neb. Very truly, CYRUS A.\ BALL.

“Wisconsin Crops Are Good” Writes Former Resident.

Menominie, Wis. Editors Republican: I enclose money order for the renewal of The Republican. I also send a clipping about alfalfa in our country. I see you people are raising it with good success, but I think we have you beateri. Crops are very good, except corn, but the last week has been helping it out greatly. Everyone is busy now in their clover hay. We are all well and are pleased- with this country. We think it is a good place ' for a poor man. Land is first class and will-raise-any thing that can be grown in Indiana. Our apple crop is going to be short this year. Yours truly, D. E. LESH. The clipping sent by Mr. Lesh states that through the efforts and experiments of an agricultural school near there, it has been proven that alfalfa will flourish in that section of Wisconsin. An average growth in an alfalfa field measured four feet in height. The land will produce three crops in a season.

Ben McColly, Who has a lumber camp in Barkley township, went to Frankfort today to get teams for hauling logs. He states that there has been lots of lumber sawed around Frankfort and that teams and men there are morp ? experienced and better equipped ff>r the work than can be found around here. Dr. S. H. Moore returned today from a short visit at Ann Arbor, Mich." Mrs. Saphena Applegate, of near Delphi, came today for a visit with her grandson, Del Bowman, of near Newland. A Rensselaer citizen, who has made a number of auto trips at different times, says that Jasper county roads, are not nearly so good as they are most other places and he believes we should put a lot more attention to our roads and thinks that extensive repairs should be made the coming summer: He says that the automobiles do not do nearly the damage that some people think they do and expressed the opinion that heavy hauling during the time when the roadbed is soft is responsible. He believes that extensive improvements should be made throughout the county this year. CASTOR IA For Infants and Children.

Republicans Placed to the Test.

Republicans are placed to a test at this time and they should be cautious about their decision. Not for the personal effect it will have upon them, but because upon their action important consequences depend. A united party can win at the polls in November. Success means continued prosperity for the American flag, the American industry, the American mechanic and the American laborer. Success means the fulfillment of the promises contained in the platform adopted at Chicago, which constitutes progressive reforms for which the people contend and means that they will be secured without the adoption of radical measures that might result in serious hardships for all. Republicans should be very cautious about deserting the party that has written almost all of the constructive legislation of the country and under whose guidance the United States have risen to an enviable place among the nations of the world. Republicans who are convinced that Roosevelt’s defeat was accomplished by unfair means should consider it their duty to take a more active part In the party organizations in the future and td life ject their demands for honesty and the square deal into every contest in which the party engages. If the party is wrong in some particulars then it is certainly in need of those men who do not countenance wrong and who should consider it their duty to purge the party of its dishonor. The result of .the convention may be much better than the means that brought it about We may condemn some of the proceedings as unfair and yet find tn the result a condition that is worthy our support. There never was a party of all puritans. There never was a lodge or a church or a society, no matter what its professions or expressed Intentions or how lofty may have been its ideals that

did not get into it men whose primary object was their own selfish ends. It is not uncommon for us to be fooled by their puritanical claims' and to give them aid that we should have given to another. It is often hard to determine the worthiness of man. It is always found that there are some political wolves in sheeps’ clothing. We should not permit ourselves to be led away from a party that has been right in the main because some of its leaders do not embody the traits of fairness we individually wish. If there is a work of reform needed in the republican party it should be those who see the need who should pledge themselves faithfully to the task of securing it. If your church does not please you because some of the members do not meet your ideals, you should make your church better by your influence. You could not help it, nor yourself, nor the world by withdrawing from it. The same applies to your lodge, to your society, to your business associations, to your home. The republican party should be purged by its best element. Politics have always been .much the same. The unscrupulous have clothed themselves to deceive and have accomplished ..their ends. Conventions, little and big/have witnessed frauds and deceptions. It has often been a case of,who is the biggest rascal. The older people of Jasper county can recall the time when political bosses went about 09 election day with their pockets filled with money, purchasing the votes of weak citizenship. These conditions have been done away with' because the' better element has controlled and because the world is improving by the demand of fairness that It sought by the great majority of people. Our elections are now. practlcally free from fraud in communities like Jasper county. The laws are being better enforced and new ones made to purify the elections in the cities. Primary laws for nominations and the

selection of delegates are being advocated and adopted in many states, thus insuring a greater fairness than exists under the present delegate system and satisfying *a demand that has been especially made during recent months. “In the calm judgment of the American people - there Is nothing nearer right than the will of God” spoke President Taft and the people have never united for any reform not come. Your duty and mine is to remain loyal to the republican party, to Its candidates, to its platform, even though there may be some things we would like to see changed. Let us create a demand for the better things we seek and let us clean the republican hearthstone. It would be far better than identifying, ourselves With another organization, headed by men who seek to satisfy personal ambition and certain to attract others who have been disappointed by failure to procure office. Let each person lay aside every prejudice, give thought to the past and the future, and then let us place our shoulders to the wheel and make the republican party perform as we, its masters, want it to.
