When the Republican party is rent with feud and faction, there may be some consolation in the fact that the Democratic party is not altogether harmonious that they are not "gathering together such as brethren are in unity to dwell."

The Republican editors, in their annual meeting at the Claypool Hotel at Indianapolis Friday, passed a resolution indorsing county local option. Only a small number of the newspaper men voted on the question. The resolution was carried by a majority of three.

The RooSeVeit boom evidently has the ultimate aim of stampeding the coming National Convention at Chicago, but we believe yet. that President Taft will be the nominee of the Republicans for president., when the smoke of the political battles have cleared away.

The Republicans have reorganized for the campaign and by select ng good precinct committeemen and head officers of the organization. It now becomes the duty of the individual voters of the party to rally around their committee and give it good loyal support. Committee organization and work are important matters and should be loyally sup^ ported by members of the party.

We believe that if the Republicans nominate the right man in the Sixth dstrict for Congress this year, he can be elected. There is no real good reason why Congressman Gray should be sent back. His presence is not essential, and it is not necessary to send him there just to fill the position and draw the salary of himself and private secretary.

President Taft is evidently seeking to make the position of his administration clear, not only to the trusts, the opposition and the party leaders, but to the people. While it is evident thai he is not a politician from the standards heretofore Jn vogue, still, if the basis of politi*cal action was the same as that which prevails among high-classed business men in the regular transaction of business, President Taft certainly would be a successful politician.

There never was a time in the history of American politics when the voters more sincerely desired to know the truth and facts as they relate to the position of the men seeking office, and of all political parties. The voters have access to mediums of political information and are better posted than ever before. They are looking at political questions, freer from prejudice than formerly, and the usual loud campaign orator will not have the applause that once greeted his tirades. More and more the voters are consulting their own interests in politics, and they will have to be shown politics just as they are shown in business. They are now convinced that politics is a business proposition and not a mere game of parties.

We are in favor of the re-nomi-nation of President Taft. His position on all questions more nearly represents the sentiment, of the Republicans than any other man considered. Lafollette and Cummins are too radical for all classes. Mr. Roosevelt will have to meet the third term proposition, no matter what, explanation he or our party may make. .Then there are many things connected with his administrations which the Democrats will attack. We see only one feature in which Roosevelt might be more popular, than Taft, and that is, he is a better politician. There was a time when Col. Roosevelt was more popular than any American citizen ever was. That fact will have much to do with his nomination, if he is nominated.

The families of the Greenfield young men who have been caught and convicted of astonishingly bold and numerous burglaries, have the sincere sympathy of many friends, but the boys or young men are getting just what they deserve, and they are not entitled to any sympathy, and have admitted themselves to be thieves of unusual daring. They have become thieves under conditions and surroundings which would naturally produce honest men. Had their surroundings been less favorable for good, they would be less censurable. As it is, they have become criminals in spite of their favorable environments, and deserve the fate of criminals. While «their respectable friends are en­

titled to sympathy, they themselves deserve none. They have past that stage. Sympathy to them might encourage others. "The way of the transgressor is hard."

What Causes Your Sleeplessness?

Do you lay awake nights and roll and toss and get us in the morning tired, exhausted and irritable? If you drink tea or coffee at night—that's the answer.

Coffee and tea. contain caffeine and thein that, excite the nerves and make sound, peaceful sleep impossible to many people.

GREENFIELD MARKET.

Drink BONANO before retiring and note the difference. BONANO is a pure fruit product, and contains no caffeine, them or anything but healthful food value that is so easily digested that it nourishes without effort, or tax on the digestive system.

These prices are corrected daily from quotations by the H. B. Bolt meat market, Currens and Grandison meat market, Thomas Nye, the poultry dealer New Milling Company, The Greenfield Milling Company, and the local grocers.
