The Republican party may not have gone ahead aa faat aa it ought to in removing tariff abuses, but t realizes, hb the Democrats do not, that idle mills would create more Buffering than tariff evils. Rushville Republican. Is it not unfortunate that the Lawrence strike disclosed the true situation?
That loyal patriot of Liberty, C. W. Stivers Is out with the worst denunciation of Roosevelt that we have heard yet. It is not likely to be surpassed except by the same pen. Says Mr. Stivers: It Is not necessary to shoot down the "Stars and Stripes" to prove that you are a traitor. You can prove your traitorous purpose of heart and mind in other ways; and when Roosevelt gave utterance to bis plan to overthrow the Judiciary as provided for in the Federal Constitution, and brought his mind to consent to be a candidate for a third term of the Presidency, he absolutely and irrevocably placed himself In the attitude of a traitor to the basal principles of the government founded by Washington and preserved by Lincoln and the loyal hosts of the Nation. Reference to the dictionary 'suggests that such a person must be "basal-nerved" or "having the nerves radiating from the base." Now, really, Mr. 8tivers we wouldn't have said that of the man that poisoned our dog.
If Mr. Lee would 'hark back to the' campaign of two years ago he could recall that the State committee did nothing but advance the Interests of one certain candidate to the detriment of all other candidates. Rushville Republican. And what were the other candidates doing?
Washington Star. Every now and then a candidate lays himself liable to a suspicion that he is willing to Indorse George Washington and Abraham Lincoln without consistently imitating them.
Wall Street Journal. Mr. Roosevelt says a tariff should be enacted to serve the interest of all the people. We should also legirlate a climate which would satisfy everybody.
Chicago Inter Ocean. Washington's farewell address was read In both houses of Congress Thursday, and there was hearty applause when the first president's declaration against a third term was read. Now, why do you suppose they applauded?
Atchison Globe. Some men are agreeablo they are too laty to argue.

Give Open Markets A Real Test It was past the middle at the summer when council did away with the market fees and turned the market grounds open to all those that have anything to sell. It Is now the middle of winter and a petition has been presented to the board of works and will be pressnted to council next Monday night urging that the system of market fe:s be re-established. The petition proceeds from the market gardeners those who make a regular business of supplying the citizens of Richmond with their produce.
As the Palladium understands it the object of council in passing the present ordinance was to encourage not the regular market gardeners, who will attend the markets under all circumstances but to place no barrier on any of the people who might have a surplus of one given product which would cheapen the general price. Does anyone know hpw this operated? Does any councilman know? Does Mayor Zimmerman know?
The complaint of the people of Richmond was against what was known as the middleman's profit. The middleman was supposed to put an exhobitant price on the produce. Did anyone ever and out who it was at the markets that set the ruling price? Did any one keep accurate tab on whether these prices were materially different from the same prices on u Main street? Did ft ever develop that there was such a thing as a middleman's price. Did a combination of gardeners set the price and then all the rest of them follow suit? And was ibis price the same price charged at the grocery stores? If there was no material change last summer it would on first sight seem that the city Is not Justified in putting up the money for maintaining a free market. This paper would iikc to satisfy itself as to the reason that the chief sellers of produce at the market should ask for the old system back. They say that they merely wish a regular stand. Why do they want this regular btand badly enough in order to pay a fairly high price for it rather than tc come in and pay nothing? There may be some reason which is not obvious to us, but if that is all that they want why do tbey not ask merely to draw lots for positions which they may keep as long aa they do not miss a market day? Whatever is done ought to be with reference to the occasional rather than the regular market people. The occasional man should be Induced to become a regular man.
As far as the money for the market maintenance is concerned we should regard that as being the money best spent by the city in these dayB of the burden of the cost of living. Flaming arc lights and the like, may be very Important Indeed but they do not rank in Importance with cheaper food products. For our part we do not regard the free market as having had a real test. Who knows what the situation will be this summer when people out in the country know to start with that they can bring in their produce and that it Is more than welcome? The present ordinance has only affected those who already contemplated selling their produce in Richmond this time last year. Isn't this killing the free market in the bud?
Those Governors.
On the front page of the New York Sun there was displayed one day this week the statement that "Another state had declared for Taft." On close reading it developed that this state was our old friend South Carolina a perfect nest o? office seekers and office holders under Mr. Taft. In the words of the celebrated Dr. Watson is it not proper to exclaim: "Marvelous, simply marvelous?" It is almost of the same importance as the announcement of the twelve governors who announced their support for Taft. The Washington Time reads their pedigrees thus: Carroll, of Iowa, standpatter, whose standing in his State is indicated by the fact that In 1908 be had 107,588 plurality, and in 1910 was re-elected wltb 18,444 plurality. Hay, of Washington, elected as a progressive, afterward wabbled and f nally landed in the stand-pat-Jim Hill column. Eberhart, of Minnesota succeeded to governorship by the death of Governor Johnson; notoriously out of harmony with his State's overwhelming antl-Taft sentiment. Goldsborough, of Maryland, held the best Federal job Taft could give in Maryland till he was elected governor. Pothier, of Rhode Island, Aldrich's governor of Aldrich's State. His standing is indicated by the fact that in 1909 be had 11,834 plurality and in 1910, 540. Spry, of Utah; Smoot's governor. Pennewill, of Delaware, governor of the Powder trust's headquarters. Tener, of Pennsylvania, Penrose's man. Barely elected In 1910 with only 41 per cent of the State's vote, and only 33,484 plurality over Berry, Keystone candidate. In 1908 the State gave 297,001 Republican plurality. Hooper, of Tennessee; elected governor by a fusion of Republicans and Democrats. Deneen, of Illinois, whose standing is indicated by the fact that in 1904 he had 299,149 plurality, and in 1908 bad 23,164. Oddie, of Nevada, a State that in 1910 cast a total of 20,626 votes. Mead, of Vermont, who received 17,838 plurality in 1910, while the State gave his predecessor, Prouty, in 1908, 29,645 plurality. It is an inspiring list.

"If I were what I think I am." He sighed, "instead of simply thla Conglomerate of bluff and sham. Of good intentions gone amiss But am I what I think, or not? What would the view of Inner sight be? I wonder If I'd change a lot Were I what others think I might be? "In thinking that I know myself

THE BEGGAR'S LEGACY.
"Now, think. I lead my life this way As would the man I think is I. And yet, were 1 myself why, say, I'm sure another course I'd try. Again, although I know full well What sort of man I quickly could be. The others easily can tell What sort of man they think X should be. "O. am I me, or I, or it. Or do, I really exist X mean the I whose traits I fit. The I whose chances I have "missed?" Aeid so he fretted o'er the doubts Which came his weary mind to cumber. And now they've changed bis whereabouts. And simply call him by a number.
A Sad Story. Behold, there was a certain man; and he was in a place where were gathered together other men. And they were telling unto each other divers stories. Now, this certain man said: "Behold, our old friend Smith hath gone down because of hard drink." Whereat they all with one accord expressed their great sorrow and regret, and asked the certala man how it came about. And he answered and said: "Lb, I just saw a cake of ice fall upon him." And they all fell upon the certain man and cast him into the outer dark ness.
It Clothes a Number of Poor People In England Annually. Gifts of clothing are made annually in many market towns and villages of Surrey to the poor from a bequest left for the purpose by Henry Smith, or "Dog" Smith, as he was more generally called, baring earned the sobriquet from the fact that be was never seen without a dog at his heels. This remarkable character lived about two and a half centuries ago and was one of the best known figures in Surrey. He was originally a silversmith in the city of London and. prospering in business, acquired estates in different parts of England. Developing eccentricities as he grew old. be adopted the life of a beggar. His wanderings were confined almost entirely to Surrey, and be is said to have begged his way through every town and village in the county. At his death in 1681 he left all his wealth to the market towns and parishes of Surrey, and the endowment enabled each town to spend $250 and each village about $30 on the purchase of clothing for its poor. Mitcham, however, was excluded from his benefactions. Smith's explanation being that on one occasion the inhabitants of Mitcham whipped him through the village as a common vagrant. London Chronicle.
