TRIFLES. I life is made up mostly of what we term trifles. . Crises seldom confront us. When a critical turning does come to us we bring to bear upon it all the fore that we can summon. We rise to the challenge. We put the best foot forward. Win or lose, we do our best. But The little things are different. They wear us out. We call them trifles, but are tbey? , Yon know, for Instance, that a slight dip in the axis of the earth would wipe out every vestige of man and his works off the globe, Or A nail near the compass box may deflect the needle and run the ship on the shoals. Trifles? A little too ranch or too little vibration of the violin string in the tuner's band mars the tone. It Is the little rift in the lute-that makes the music mute. - . It is so in our lives. ; Nerves are rasped and put on edge, tempers are ruffled, patience is exhaustd by "trifles light as air." Because 'These small things come upon us frequently and unawares. We have no time to gather together our forces to meet the "trifles." We do not put them down and in consequence they put ua downLittle things become big. Take it in married life. Irritated at some trifle, the husband loses his patience. He voices the complaint The wife loses ber grip on discretion and retorts in kind. The thing develop Into a dispute, a quarrel sometimes worse. , Or- , The husband comes home to find the nerves of his wife are jangled by some extra household cares. She forgets that ha may be worn by the worries of his day. She complains of some trifle of omission or commission. . The husband flames up. There is a dispute, misunderstandings discord, .wretchedness. Trifles make tragedies. Had the wife been seriously ill the husband would bear the little complainings without thought of resentment. Had some misfortune befallen the husband the wife would stand by him to the end. Ware the trifles! They cause us to lose our proper sense of proportion. Looming large In fancy, they create havoc. In the lexicon of human living there is no such word as trivial. This Is My 47th Birthday SIR JAMES MESTON Sir James Meston, appointed recently to be lieutenant-governor of the United States Provinces of Agra and Oudh and who is recognized as one of the ablest of the younger men in the government of India, was born in Aberdeen, Juno 12, 1865. He was educated at Aberdeen University and at Balliol College, Oxford, and passed into the India civil service in 1883. He became a joint magistrate in 1890, a deputy commissioner in 1896, and a magistrate and collector in 1899. Later be served cs secretary to the finance department of the Government of India. In 1905 he was lent to the Government of the Cape of Good hope to assist in straight ering out the f nances of that colony. He was created a Knight Commander of the Star of India at the time of the recent Durbar. CONGRATULATIONS TO: Sir Oliver Lodge, celebrated English scientist, 61 years old today. Sydney A. Fisher, former Canadian minister of agriculture, 62 years old today. . Laurits S. Swenson, United States minister to Norway, 47 years old today. Victor Brenner, who designed the Lincoln penny, 41 years old today. John Lamb, who represents the Third Virginia district in Congress, 72 years old today.

Interesting Correspondence. The Palladium: Allow me to say that If the Republican party nominates a reactionary by vicious methods, I shall abandon my habit of voting for its candidates; if the Democratic party nominates Woodrow Wilson I shall vote for him; I shall use what small influence and activity I have to organize a third party along progressive lines with a progressive candidate for president if neither of the two leading parties nominate a progressive. I am not a Socialist, but in case no opportunity is given me to vote for a progressive, I shall register my protest by voting the Socialist national ticket I do this because it is the most effective way in that event, by which I can serve notice that I am discontented. The utter dearth of any progressive Republican timber in the district is not the only reason that I shall vote for Finly Gray for congress. I believe that virtue should not be its own reward ; I know the record of Finly Gray and he has kept his promises to his constituents; he is a progressive. If the constituents of Finly Gray do not support him they will have served notice that Jim Watson had the right idea after all. Up till the present time I have never voted any other than the straight Republican ticket. If some vent is not given for the present unrest I do not believe the Republican party can exist much longer. In fact, if Taft is given a stolen nomination I shall take it that I owe no allegiance to the National Republican Committee since it is beginning to look as if it owes none to me. Yours very truly.

We submit this letter without comment. It needs none. The man actually intends to do what he says. How many others are there who will do what he suggests? The only thing of real interest in the interview given out by Charles Hernley at Chicago is his statement that no Republican has got a ghost of a show in the 6th District and that the nomination for congress is going by default. It is because a great many people feel like our correspondent above that there is no candidate. Even a man drafted for service would like a show for his money say Teddy Roosevelt.

Citizenlike.

Mr. Charles Jordan did the right thing in withdrawing his name from further discussion for member of the school board. It involves no test of his well known popularity, and his desirability and availability were never in question. The fact of it is, that between himself, Mr. Nusbaum and Miss Sarah Hill, there were two places to be filled. Mr. Jordan had merely stated that if he was asked to Berve he would serve. This is the proper at titude for every citizen to take toward public service. Miss Hill had made the same statement, but in her case the circumstances made public sentiment particularly strong. She represented, in addition to her own unchallenged fitness the solution of a problem "How to bring the school closer in touch with the family." The overwhelming sentiment in favor of Miss Hill represented by actual inquiries and by voluntary testimony made the choice lie between Mr. Jordan and Mr. Nusbaum. There is no one in town who does not believe that faithful service should not be rewarded and this applies to Mr. Nusbaum's case. - Mr. Jordan did a graceful and citizen-like act in withdrawing absolutely from the field.

In Re Commencements. Whenever schools let out and boys begin to come home from college it is customary to let loose a whole broadside of advice to the graduates and condolences to the families. We have in mind several lengthy editorials which have appeared in the metropolitan papers. Most of it can be spared our younger friends who are getting out of school. Those who have worked their way through school and college are beyond the need of advice; those that have subsisted on their parents' bounty do not need to be given any advice, if they have not bankrupted their parents; while if the family bank accounts have been depleted there Is nothing left to do except to get a job. The only family that needs condolence is that which contains a boy who won't go out and root for himself and he doesn't need advice, just an order, "Get a job!" It is n't so Important what that first job is. It is a lot easier to get the job you want if you have proved that you can hold down oneyou aren't particularly crazy about.

A B C of the Question: When will the Republican National Convention meet? Answer: June 18. How mony delegates will comprise the convention? There will be 1,078 delegates. How many votes will be required to nominate the candidate? A majority of the total number, or 640. How is the number of delegates apportioned among the states? Each state has twice the number of delegates that It has representatives and senators in Congress. How are the delegates elected? Two delegates from each congressional district and two at large for each United States senator. But some states have four delegates-at-large and some have six while others have eight? The new law for the apportionment of representatives in Congress gives some states added representation In Congress. These representatives have not been assigned to districts as yet and are called congressmen-at-large. For each of these representatives two delegates are elected at large. Are the delegates elected by popular vote? A few states have presidential primary laws where all the voters in the party vote directly for the district and state delegates. In the other states, they are elected in conventions. How are these conventions determined? The precincts, wards and townships elect delegates to a county convention; the county convention elects delegagates to the congressional district and state conventions, and these conventions elect delegates to the national convention. What is meant by contested delegations? When irregularities are charged against the election of delegates in district or state conventions those who believe that fraud has been practiced, or that corrupt or irregular methods are used in the election of delegates challenge the right of those delegates to a seat in the convention. Who bears these contests? The national committee. How is the national committee selected ? One representative from each state is selected to serve on the national committee. In some states they are elected by direct vote of all the Republicans at the presidential primaries, but in a majority of the states

Convention

they are selected by the state delegations to the national convention. What are ' the functions of the national committee? It is the supreme organization of the party. It has oversight over the presidential campaigns, chooses the campaign managers, calls the national convention and determines the list of delegates entitled to seats in the national convention. Is the national committee now making up that list? Yes. Is the decision of the national committee final? No. The list of delegates certified by the national committee is for the purpose of determining what delegates are entitled to vote in the temporary organisation of the convention. How could the convention overrule the national committee? .The convention is the sole judge of its own membership. After the convention is organized a committee on credentials will be appointed, consisting of one delegates from each state, named by the members of the various state delegations. This committee will go over the testimony offered before the national committee. It may summon other witnesses, also, and make its own investigation of the election of the contested delegates. Then it will report its finding to the convention and that body will determine whether it will admit the contested delegates or those bringing the contest. But do the delegates seated by the national committee have the right to vote upon the merits of their own case? Yes. What is there to prevent the national committee from actually stealing a national convention? Nothing except a protest ,of' public sentiment against it of sufficient force to influence the committeemen. Could not the courts interfere? The courts will not. They have decided long since that contests affecting only party nominations are not matters for adjudication in the courts. Then there is no appeal from the national committee's action except to a convention, which it has the. power to organize? There is no appeal except to the convention and to the fair judgment of the delegates whose seats are not contested. The Kansas City Star.
