DELICATELY VEILED EHt Bryan's Commoner says: "No, Mr. Bryan will not be a compromise candidate before the republican convention. It is true that he is more pro
gressive than President Taft and less
dangerous than ex-President Roosevelt, and it is probably true, also, that the President and the ex-presl-dent would each rather see him president than the other, but he feels under no political obligations to either one of them and is willing to let them fight out their differences even
if it splits the republican party."

JUDGES MUST BE CLEAN. In this country, at least, no judge
has ever won prestige or fame by subordinating justice to mere technicality. Judges who depend upon tech
nicality to defeat the end of justice do not adorn the pages of history.
They are either consigned to oblivion,
or their names are linked with those who stand adjudged as having under

HAVE ACCOMPLISHED MUCH.
There is one thing that can be said in behalf of American journalism, it stands for unselfish work for community betterment. It is manifestly suicidal when a newspaper permits personal spites to govern its policy, and a few of them do. Hence a conviction and tradition have grown up in the newspaper fraternity that considerations of public welfare alone must govern newspaper policy, according to the best intelligence of the editor. Who can measure the erwid
accomplished by the newspapers as righters of wrongs, as proclaimers of hidden evils, as persuaders in campaigns of pubic enterprise and business advancement? Whenever a road needs to be improved, a scamp is to be ousted from office, the public instinctively turns to the newspaper for help. Here and there a newspaper shows the yellow streak Pnd fails to assist, but is it often? In view of these services, there is a growing recognition of the honorable character of journalism as a profession, a growing disposition to co-operate with the newspaper by helping it obtain all legitimate news and a growing tendency to extend adequate
financial support through subscriptions

THE MANIAC OF THE ROAD.
It is about time that the speed

the general public has waived all righ to enter upon and traverse them.

him and knocked him over. There are two streets ,ln Ham
