THAT CAMPAIGN
The yress from uow ou will, In
rnanv instances, make contradictory
claims tor and against the two
national ItsuK'is who are coming
before the people in tha coming
presidential campaign. The modern
newspaper must print its political
ufcws £ree from party bias to earve
♦he "Vrpcse for which they hare
bet-n established; that of a pur
veyor oi the news from all paiis of
the conii'ry to the readers la the
community in whkh V is located.
Editorially, of course, it may go as
far a it likes for usually the edit
orials are merely the opinions of
»h« editor and accepted for what
they are worth. When a newspaper
attempts to color its news to square
with it? editorial columns it to
overstepping the underlying prin
cities of its foundation.
The press has quoted 'he leading
politicians as saving »hat the presi
dential campaign will be free from
mud slinging. This condition is I
certainly to meet the avprwal of
t' e !;irge mass of voters and think
ing oeople throughout the land.
T!«»re is no'hing to be gained by
Impugning motives. American com
munities, as a rule, are too In
telligent to be blinded by bitter
partisian workers and political
fiends.
Every campaign which makes a
success is necessarilv a campaign
of education. Political platforms
are «he fundamentals which touch
public welfare and oarties entering
tha political arena must be judged
according to their records in car
rying out the oromises contaimd In
the planks of their pltttforms: The
kind of men who have raeived pub
lic apiwintive officcs under the
administration and the general wel
sume of the country's condition it
Is trecessary to not only look to
the Immediate oresent, but the
movements affecting posterity
should be considered and welghtd
heavilv as evidence for or against
•he party.
Th° two men just on the verge
of making their national plea for
elt'CHon to the highest office that
the nation can besto-w upon them are
both oi high cut, clean personali
ties. perhaps one may have more
iniative than the other, perhaps he
mar have more driving power and
■will be able to command a higher
degree of commanders hip than the
c'b«\ but it eventually sifts down
to the political doctrine® of the
• wo wen. In speaking of men, we
necessarily take in the party and its
accomplishment.
The present administration.
'• must be admitted by all, has not
plated the condition of the average
citizen in better circumstances. It
ha- been uncertain in its movement
anl fluctuating In Its aiccompUsh
inett'a. I ; .j
That's all righ' you are net the
only one that stumbled oyer the
long French ohrase, -which In
regular language means "Soup."
The Cook on the George is be
ing congratulated on the "George
Trifle." It was superfine.
The July celebrationn should re
ceive th*» heart/ endorsement of
all o<f tbe business men In Sakgway.
It mffns more people ia the town
and ruiney spent wdth the local
merchants.

And down la the vales looked he;
And sprang ujj blythe all things of

The* flowers crteped out their ten

And offered their dewy fee;
And rivers and rills they shimmer

Their winding ways to the sea;
And the little birds their morning

Trilled forth from every tree.
On a WMt-Sunday nnoru in the
