gR-RR-R-R-R, but isn't it cold o' nights, especially in a motor speeding along at about—well you know how many miles an hour? I tell you I appreciated the steamer rug we had last evening. You never know how much warmth there is in one until you're out motoring on "a fall day in June," as Abe Martin says. 1 have a friend who got a beauty at Ayres's recently and she only paid $6.00 for it. I think this rug is used for about everything that could be imagined. When it is not in the motor it covers a couch in the library until some member of the family gets cold sitting on the porch and wants something to put around him. And the laughable thing is that it was bought especially for a trip to the lakes.

The enforcement of law against the speeding of automobiles over streets and country highways may be unpopular with many owners of machines, but it should have no defense from fair minded citizens. It is useless to be prejudiced against motor machines. They supply a demand of the„ people for rapid transit on the public highways and can no more be eliminated from the life and business of the people than the telephones, street cars and railroad trains of the country. They have come to stay, And the only thing left for the public to do, is to regulate and control their use so that the greatest good can be derived from them consistent with the safety of the public. There is generally more or less conflict and complaint of anything in the way of an innovation. These gradually disappear as the use becomes more com mon. There was great prejudice against the bicycle, and many horses and people were slow to become reconciled to them on the highway,
as they are now with the auto. The bicycle, however, has become so common that it is given a place on the highway as freely as is a man on horseback. The same will be the case with the automobile in the course of time, but in the meantime officers must rigidly enforce the law against violations of speed regulations in order that the lives of the people may be as carefully guarded and protected as possible. There is no doubt but that many persons who should not be allowed to control and operate automobiles, do drive them, and it is from the recklessness of such drivers that so much trouble results, but arrests, conviction and heavy penaities will have the desired effect upon them.
A prominent and very successful business man of Greenfield said today, "Don't talk tome about conscience." He declared that whenever a man began to say that he cou)d not conscientiously do a thing, he immediately became suspicious of him. He said it was all right for a man to say that in the exercise of good judgment he did not think he could do some certain thing. Or that certain acts would not be consistent with a square deal, but away with the man who said he was conscientious. This man's business experience has taught him, he said, that the men who placed the most stress on conscience are the least to be trusted. Is this the general experience? Has conscience lost its force and influence? If it has, why? It is no doubt due to abuse. Many persons without conscience have misused the word because of its good reputation until they have ruined its standing with that particular man. However, conscience is still a pretty good word, and there are a great many conscientious people in the world, and in every community who are to be trusted, and who do and will make good when trusted notwithstanding the hypocrites. No word is so good, and no word can be coined so expressive, beautiful and popular that it will not be abused. Even the popular phrase "square deal" so often used by Col. Roosevelt may become odeous by abuse.
The Republican is for the nomination of Theodore Roosevelt by the Republican party in 1912. In taking that position we believe we reflect the sentiment of a very large per cent of the people of the Republican party in the community in which we live. The Republicans, while they consider President Taft is a wise and good man, do not think he possesses the qualities for president to the extent that Mr. Roosevelt does. Col. Roosevelt will return to the United States soon. The position that he will occupy after his return has been much discussed. That he will be a positive power in politics after bis return no one doubts. That his influence will be in behalf of the people no one doubts, but whether he will accept official position or work outside in the ranks, is a matter of great concern to the people. There are thousands of Republicans in every State who are afraid that Mr. Roosevelt will decline to be a candidate again for the presidency. They are disappointed with President Taft, and think that Mr. Roosevelt is the strongest man that can be nominated by the party.
