They Shall Reap

"The man who will buy rotes or who will accept money for his' vote is worse than the man who shot atthe flag in "61." That brings it right home to every man who is worthy of the name. That was what Senator Beveridge said at the Emancipation day ceremonies on Thursday. After all it is up to the every day citizen. If he tolerates bribery consciously or unconsciously who is it pays the penalty? How is a man who has bartered his vote be it for a smile or for money to expect a Square Deal? This year there will be much money spent In Indiana for the purpose of defeating the senior senator the legislative ticket of the republican party. This year those who cannot be bought for. money will be bought in some other way, unless they can think. And. unless be does his own thinking what roan is worthy of a vote?

It was Herbert Spencer, an individualist, that held the man who accepted a bribe equally guilty with the man who Bold a nation. But it does not take Herbert Spencer to, see that if any man sells his vote he is selling what is worth infinitely more. A buyer makes an Investment he buys at the rate of a thousand times over. And why should a man buy? ' Why should a man buy votes? Obviously to control those who are in office. What good to speak of low wages when the men who represent the average man are owned body and soul what good to bemoan the high cost of living it's up to you isn't it? And so it was that Senator Beveridge put it squarely up to the colored people of Indianapolis on Emancipation day. We all think much of special privilege how it is that one man may have a law passed that he may have the power to tax all the rest of his fellow men? That is simple. There is dishonesty back of it It is all very well to blame the man who has the money to purchase votes. It is the same blame which attaches to the man who is bought. The man who buys knows what he is doing. The man who is bought sees only the money. In addition to being corrupt he is foolish.

Up North wa hold our hands up in horror at the thought that the government of several states (through "various acts of the legislatures of certain states) has violated the constitution and its amendments. But up North we had all better look to it that the birth right is not sold out from under us. - And the man who buys ia as sure to profit by it as if he owned a listed security. He does.

This buying of votes Is not all done with money. It can be done through the advice of a banker in the time when investments are made. This can be done at the time that you buy your tobacco from an agent of the tobacco trust. It can be done What use to repeat what you all know "Vote for me as a personal favor." Do you remember Jim Watson? ' A pleasant man, hall fellow well me. And yet Was your vote ever bought?

As this paper looks at the election this year and somewhat after the election, this vote buying looms up as a thing for the common every day citizen to think about ' When some man who has been overly exposed to temptation is caught with the goods on who is It who is first to condemn and yet did that man go to the polls? And then well he was a good fellow and they had a mortgage on his place. But isn't there a way out? The biggest piece of unconscious bribery has been the man who has held his party more sacred than his sense of decency this whether he Is republican or democrat. If that were not ao we' would not hear of insurgent republicans and progressive democrats.

. Bought for a name a tradition or are you voting for men? It Cannon had not been able to whip men into line You know the rest of the story. And Cannon would have well liked to appoint the committee to exonerate Ballinger. Aldrlch would have liked every Republican vote on the tariff. (But he had seventeen democrats.)

THIS IS THE YEAR OF REAL HONESTY, IF THERE IS ANY HONESTY IN THIS COUNTRY. THIS IS THE YEAR OF REAL HONESTY, IF THERE IS ANY HONESTY IN INDIANA. ' THIS IS THE YEAR OF REAL HONESTY, IF THERE IS ANY HONESTY IN WAYNE COUNTY. THIS IS THE YEAR TO REBUKE THE BI-PARTISAN MACHINE. THE RECORDS ARE KNOWN.

Items Gathered In. From Far and Near The Greater Boston Folly. From the Boston Transcript Merely to make this city bulk large In the census tablea of the ready reference manuals would be a very child ish reason for such a wholesale overturn In affairs as the proposed Greater Boston would constitute. It la now something of a distinction for Boston that its census figures do not so nearly represent Its real strength as do those of most other American cities. Were these all to enter Into a race to see how large they could make themselves appear on the records startling areas would In time result New York and Philadelphia might become contiguous cities, while Chicago would be bounded by Wisconsin, Indiana, Lake Michigan and the rest of Illinois. Boston, to recover relative position anew In such a race, might have to annex everything as far west as the Connec ticut river and south to the Cape Cod canal. All this craze for bigness is essentially unintelligent What makes an American city desirable is its quality; Its government its institutions, Its educational facilities, its average of human comfort To these aims the attention of public-spirited men should be directed, and not to figures In a census bulletin. Huge cities are not as a rule, well run. The Greater j New York experiment In government' has been an Indifferent success. The experience of Chicago will hardly be quoted as an argument for a Greater Boston. Popular government works out to the best advantage where the power Is kept close to those over whom It Is exercised. Poetry and the Coat of Living. From the Chicago Inter Ocean. The wife of Richard Le Gallienne,

the poet, has filed a bill for divorce,

according to a dispatch from New York, it seems that the poet has not supported her for seven years or more Hence the suit. While non-support for a matter of seven years is legal ground for a divorce la most states, Mrs. Le Gelllenne, it seems to us. should take into consideration the dif ficulties in the way of a professional poet Of late years these have been particularly great Most commodities, as she must know very well, have gone up 40 or 50 per cent in the last decade. Food, clothes, bouse rent amusements, wives, establishments all these call for a great deal more than they probably ever did before And yet It Is a fact no doubt easily verified that the price of poetry has not by any means kept pace with the general rise In prices. We shouldn't

be at all surprised if even a super-; ficial investigation were to show that , poetry was actually selling for less to-i

day than it did several years ago. Women and the Churches. From the Newark News. A number of the good women of Jersey City took trowels and mortar and bricks last week and helped to build a new church. Their sisters throughout the world are helping very materially to maintain and uphold all the old ones. Paye to Advertise. From the New York Herald. Leading English suffragette says American women won't win the ballot until they advertise themselves more. In vote getting, just as in any other business, it pays to advertise. Long, Long Time. From the Chicago Post Somebody Is going to "remember the Maine" election a long, long time. TWINKLES BY PHILANDER JOHNSON. Compulsory Egoism. 'I hate to talk about myself," said the energetic statesman. "Indeed!" "Yes. But I'd rather do it than let my enemies do all the talking about me." A Difficult Reformation. "Didn't you tell me that if I'd quit smoking I. would save several hundred dollars in a few years?" -?Yes," said the ready adviser. "Well, I stopped five years ago and I haven't saved that money you were talking about." "But if you had gone on smoking you might have been that much in debt." "That's so. By the way, if I start smoking now do you think there is anybody who will lend me that much money?" An Economist "Don't you think S20 a month is a rather small allowance for your husband?"Certainly not" replied the prima donna. "Think of the money ne saves by being allowed to hear me sing for I noimng. A Special. "That steak you sent home was tough," said the housekeeper. "It must have been one of our spec ials that we gave you by mistake, answered the dealer. "A special!" "Yes; one that we send out with i durability guarantee." The Preoccupied Householder. He was a man of simple mien And yet of passing earnestness. His mind, 'twas easy to be seen. Was in a state of mild distress. Quoth he : "The winter's drawing nigh ; The blossoming days, alas, through. I wonder when the snowflakes fly are Just what my heating plant will do! "The public mind with mighty throes May heave. And yet my closest care Unto my dusty basement goes, Where we produce our own hot air. I hear the challenge to the fray In which with wood or coal or cokel I keep my siege from day to day Amid the wreathing battle smoke,! "I know events are taking place Of national weight at many points. But it must be my lot to chase Up stairs and down for leaky Joints Where geysers play or small cascades Go ripping through the plastered . wall. I shun your speeches and parades. For I must heed the beater's call!" This Is My 5 1 st Birthday REV. THOMAS I. GASSON. Rev. Thomas I. Gasson, president of Boston College, was born in Kent County, England, September 23, 1859, and received his early education in St Stephen's school In London. In IS 72 he came to America and three years later joined the Society of Jesus. For several years he was a professor j at Loyola College, Baltimore, from which institution he went to New York in 1886 to fill the chair of rhe toric at St Francis Xavier College. Two years later he went abroad to complete bis theological studies and In 1891 he was ordained to the priest hood at Musbruck University in Austria. In 1S92 he returned to America and after spending a short time in Maryland he was assigned to a professorship at Boston College. For ten years he filled the chair of philosophy and was then promoted to the presi dency of the college, which position he still holds. Father Gasson Is re garded as one of the foremost educa tors of the Jesuit society in America.

A moving picture operators union has been formed in Boston, Mass.. There are now fifteen unions in the recently organized Building Trades Council at Winnipeg, Manitoba. Many of the building trade unions of Chicago maintain automobiles for the use of their business agents. Fifty-five cents a day is the average wage paid in American factories to girls under sixteen years of age.

From 1870 to the present time, a period of forty years, the state of New York has placed 212 labor laws on its statute books. The greater part of these laws were enacted since 1S94. The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employes now numbers upward of ten thousand members, and is reported to be steadily growing, with local unions in all the principal cities of the country. On the wage question the miners of France, Germany and Belgium are all seeking to obtain wage agreements on lines similar to those obtaining in the British coal fields of a fixed minimum wage for a certain period. The organized bookbinders of Berne, Switzerland, have succeeded In establishing the nine-hour day, combined with an Immediate increase of 2 per cent and a further 3 per cent in two years, the agreement to run for five years.

State Wide Primaries Held in

Oregon Saturday; Hard Fight

(American News Service.) Salem, Ore., Sept 23. Following a spirited campaign that has been kept up all summer, statewide primaries will be held throughout Oregon tomorrow to determine who are to be the candidates of the republicans and democrats for the offices to be filled t November election The con test for the gubernatorial nomination has been interesting on both sides, and the congressional contests on the republican ticket have echoed the nat ional insurgent movement The old-line republicans in July held an "assembly and suggested candidates for all state offices for the guidance of the party voters. This move was opposed by a large and influen tial element of the party and as a result three candidates entered against Jay Bowerman, assembly candidate for governor. There were E. Hofer, a Salem newspaper man, who advo cates the direct primary law as it stands and opposes the prohibition amendment for the state constitution: Grant B. Dimick of Oregon City, who declares in favor of the primary law and strict economy in public affairs, and Albert Abraham of Roseburg, who " THIS DA TE

With this divis ion of the "anti-assembly"' forces, it is believed that Bowerman stands the best chance of securing the republican nomination. On the democratic side , Jefferson Myers, a democratic war horse of Portland, and Oswald West, who as a member of the state railroad com mission secured many concessions for the people of Oregon, seek the guber natorial nomination, with the chances of success apparently somewhat in favor of West. With Bowerman likely to got the republican nomination and West the democratic, the indications seem to point to another democratic governor for republican Oregon, for it is believed that the "anti-aBsembly" republicans are almost certain to support the democratic nominee in preference to Bowerman.
