In ling the fact some years later, he said: “When I had spoken a hour, | had told them everything in the world I knew, every: thing. Then I began to repeat myself, and I have done nothing else ever since.” Everything has been said before, and sgid overjand oyer. We, therefore, find ourselves in agreement with Gay, when he says: “My tongue within my lips I rein; Who talks much must talk in vain.” James Russell Lowell observed that a man must be a born leader or misleader of men, or must have been sent into the world unfurnished with that modul ting and restraining bal ance-wheel which we calla sense of humor, who, in old age, has as strong a confidence in his opinions and in the netes sity of bringing the universe in conformity with them as he bad in youth. To quote: “In a world the very condition of whose being is that it should be in perpetual’ flux, where all seems mirage, and the one abiding thing to distinguish realities from appearances, the elderly man must be indeed of a singularly tough and valid fibre who is certain that he has any clarified residium of ex- perience, any assured verdict of reflection, that deserves to be called an opinion, or, if he had, feels *t he is justified in holding mankind by the button while he is expounding it.” And in a world of hourly journalism, where every clever man, every man who thinks he is: clever, or whom anybody else thinks is clev led upon to deliver his, judgment point-blank on e able subject of human thought, or on what sometimes seems to him to be very much the: same thing, there is a never ending flow of banal commonplaces. Under. the circumstances, of course, there is little chance of beguiling a new tune out of the one-stringed instrument upon which we have been-strumming so long. r The Road to Improvement Ordinary newspaper accounts of incidents in everyday life seem sensational because the reader knows so little of human life when he reads about them. The newspaper is quite as much a political institution as a national committe: mmany hall, a so-called state machine, or any other or; ation de- voted to party or public purpose. We have grumbled about the political institutions; sometimes we have sought by certain legislative devices to exorcise and expel the evil spirits that possessed them. On the whole, we have becu inclined to re- gard thm as sacred. What then is the remedy for the existing ition .of the newspaper? There is no remedy. Humanly speaking the present newspapers are about as good as th can be. If the newspapers are to be improved it will come through the education of the people and the organization of political information and intelligence. The Approaching Campaign In opening the 1926 congressional campaign, Chairman Butler of the Republican natjonal committee said: “The elec. tions of next year are of vital irnportance on their final out- come will largely depend the ability of the president to carry out the program which the people of the nation haye endorsed by an overwhelming majority. The Republican percy is united, courageous and looking for rd to new yictories. The Demo- cratic party is no nearer united in thought and purpose than it was on the occasion of their last national convention in New York city. The Democratic party already is endeayoring to set on foot a warfare of investigating charges and scurrilous tacks similar to what it has heretofore attempted, but. tl Your Thanksgiving Turkey From an agricultural department bulletin we are en abled to glean some important facts and figures relating to the bird that ranks.only second to the great bird ‘of freedom. We are commending the data. When you select your’ turkey for Thanksgiving, one of the chief considerations is the amount and qhality of the flesh on the body, especially on the breast, back and hips,.Plenty. of flesh means plenty of meat for cary- ing, and there should be also a generous amount of fat to insure a moist tender turkey. The French always expose a Town, Dispossesse Moved twice since its founding ,100 years ago, will soon disappear under waters of 100-mile long J power from turbulent waters of Osajre’ river. site for their “old home town,” hopeful of finding one t Che Casper Daily Cribune d Twice, Must Move Again presept site of Linn Creck, Mo., shown here, I jake impounded by a dam that will-manufacture The unchanging population of 500 is secking a new hat it can stick to, wR ast aside the discipline which he demands of his subordinates and openly make charges against those who are his superiors? Colonel Mitchell may be a splendid fellow; he maysbe a good aviator; he may be a skilled militarist, but his action has done more to advance disruption in the protective forces than all the campaigning by the subyersive moyements of the nation. The man who casts his lot with any organization, public or private, accepts his compensation from that organization, and then devotes some of his time and en y.to disruptin, same, is not a loyal indiyidual, and he not a good We have had many illustrations of it during the years. Ministers who accepted the doctrines aad discipline of nin churehes have declared their opposition to such doe- trines and ‘discipline, and while refusing to withdraw from the church, haye been occupying the pulpit of their church :ua public xpiessing their contempt for the organization. In polities this position has been particularly pronounced. We have sitting in congress men elected:by the votes and at the expense of Republicans, who are openly seéking to disrupt the Republican party. And we have men eléeted as Democrats, and at the expense of Democrats, who ate openly seeking to disrupt that party.

Farm Relief Bill Senator Cummins of Iowa is drafting a farm relict vill which contains a provision for a direct excise tax en’ dealers in exportable farm commodities, the intevt being to cover losses that might be incurred by cperations of a proposed ex port commission, Senator Cunimins believes the taxution would be spread over so broad an area that the: individual farmer hardly would feel it. His bill is designed as a Aube hie for the the Jast age ,and the western lines not so What They May Earn well, “The railways completed five years As a result of the large ot operaticn without government net operating Income wh guarantees under the Transportation ways have & cent months n earning within re: | much discussed ansportation Act, Act on August 31, 1925.

The Second Battle A controversy that’ has arisen among Soldiers ‘from Michigan who took part {n what has been called among the’ Americans the Aisne- Marne offensive, but which. the French call the Second Battle of the Marne, shows how-lttle of the actual history of the American par- ticipation in the war is known to the soldiers themselves, The clese censorship threw a thick veil over the war drama. veil that has hard- ly been lifted yet. ‘ vr example, this so-called Second Battle of the Marne took place. in 1916, as one writer contended. hut. in the middle of July, 1918. It was a. Franco-American . affair, though one British corps partici- nated in the -glory of those July Jays, The two American corps. com: ised 216.000, soldiers, and together wet he French f vere unger the command of the French general. Mangin. After the event,.the French general order, commending the American corps, a document well worth remembering, read as follows: Ofticers,, noncommissioned officers and soldiers of the Third United States Army €orps: Shoulder to shoulder with your French comrades you were thrown into the counter- offensive which commenced 6n the sources. and economic possibilities of the country. The truth, on the contrary. is that Italy Is one of the vestiment. The Transportation Act directs the commission to so adjust rates as to enable’ the railways. ‘as nearly as M be,” to. earn a: falr annual re ; This does not mean they must be go ac ted as to produce a fair retiirn in every year, and the actual administration of the act by the |. commission during the last five years shows that it has not adopted this interpretation. The commisston has during these years so regulated rates that no group of railways has earned anywhere near the average of 6% per cent. In other words, the com: mission has not treated the return as a minimum which the rallways must be allowed to earn in bad years. But If !t cannot be logically held to be a minimum, then: neither can ft, logically be held to be a maximum but it must be held to be an average that should be earned for periods, including -both bad and good years test of the rate-making provisions of the ‘Transportation Act. That. test hes indicated that they are of no value except: as an. agsurance of what kind of regulation the rallways and investors in their securities may expect .In future. With business cogditions restored to normal and the return being éarned by the rall- ways largely increased, we are now entering upon a much more critical and conclusive test of the act. Whether its ‘provisions are of any value will be determined by whether the commission, after having kept rates down for five years when the yallways were earning less than a fair return, will make and keep them high enough when~ business ix good to bring the average return earned over _a—period of years up to what “We have now had five years’ | | 2Kinds 18th of July.
