S THE McMILLAN CANDIDACY | The non-politician along the street hears of the possibility of Dugald Me- Millan becoming mayor of the city and says with decided emphasis, “Good.” The business man hears of the pos- sibility, glances at the great stor which has just left the posscssion of Dugald McMillan when the business of that store is in splendid shape, and | says “Good.” The manufacturer, to | thinking it is rather hopeless to try to discuss affairs with habitues of city hall, hears of the possibiiity and says, quietly conservative, “Good The women of the city, familiar with the McMillan atmosphere, the McMillan conservative solidity, quali- ty without too great ostentation, hear of the possibility and say, “He ought t® make a good mayor. I know him by sight at least. I'll vote for him." | These comments are made by those whose not over-enthusiastic apprecia- tion of the things done under Mayor Curtis will not prevent their support of & man like Dugald McMillan merely because his candidacy might hurt the candidacy of Mayor Curtis. The comments are made by people who do not believe in figuring out what effect the condidacy of one man will have upon that of another. The people who become somewhat enthused over the possible running of Mr. McMillan are to see accustomed many good men announcing their will ingness to accept the nomination, in ordgr that the city might have the best possible person at.the head of its aXfairs. Sincerely it is believed that Mr. Mc- Millan would not be a . politicians’ candidate. He not a politicia candidate now. How many ponmmn} far-seeing, may flock to his support lfl he announces that he will run, is an- eother matter. Already he has indi- cated his hesitancy to become enthus-‘ ed over the boom started for him. It is believed that boom has no ulterior motive for an inspiration. The only desire of those most eager to have Mr. McMillan run is that the city should have the best possible mayor. They believe Mr. McMillan is the best man in sight. They are urging him towrun. Everyone surhises that there are mysterious things going on in city hall as mysterious things have gone on in city hall always. There is a feeling that some of those mysterious things are good and some are not so good. There is a feeling that it would be a good thing for the city to have the curtains of city hall raised and to let the sunlight dispel the .mists which conceal those mysterious things, good and bad. People who know him be- lieve Dugald McMillan would seize the curtains, let them fly up ,and a flood of sunlight come in. They would like to see him have the chance. This year the woman's vote, course, is to be considered.

FOREST FIRES, Now comes the time when excessive care should be taken to prevent gras: brush and forest fires, The latter | often result from the former, 'l"l\(n; The fires in this | noted in yesterday's news reports emphasize the necessity of calling this matter to the attention of all people. A match dropped care- essly, a burning cigarette, which in- cidentally does not go out until con- sumed, a small picnic fire—any of these may start a blaze which will destroy forests of great value or at least a considerable portion of them. One of the first things “tenderfeet” learn when they go on a camping ex- cursion is to be sure the camp fire is out. They are taught that stamping it “out” 'so that no smoke arises, is not enough. In some localities it burns down into and beneath the sur- face, invisible for some time, only to crop up elsewhere apd do its'damage. As appeals to the pocketbook are usually effective mention is made of the fact that to fight fires costs the taxpayers money. The state pays part of the expenses, but it is probably that | local taxpayers will suffer somewhat | in a more direct way if’the fires be- ) [10ss* is irreparable. | vicinity come general. But entirely aside from other con- siderations people should take the greatest care lest a careless act may result in a great damage through fire as the spring comes on and summer arrives. S T TOO MUCH TUSS There is no reason to-become: ex- cited over the fact that a wealthy young man who drove his automobile faster than the 1LWV,I)|DWI is obliged to spend five days in jall as punish- ment for his lawlessness. Probably driving fast was easy for him because rar.. So it was easier for him to make a fight against imprisonment because he had money enough to pay lawyers Everyone knows there is this unfairness in the law and in life, which embraces law as part of it. The unfairness permeates every- thing and there is no way to get| around it except by making everyone | equally wealthy: Were it possible to do this the situation would not. re- would get rid of their money and the energetic, the efficient and the savers would get most of it again. So condi- tions, in a generation or two, would be much as they are today. The matter reminds of the story of 2 humble clergyman's remark when it was announced that a celebrated man of great wealth, was to be buried from his .humble church. A few days | previously a poor woman, practically without friends, had been laid to rest from that same modest country edi- fice. Someane spoke to the clergyman about the pomp of ceremony which would attend the funeral of the great Mr. Blank. “Yeg, remarked the minister quiet- ly, “1 see no reason why he should not have as fine a funeral as did poor Mrs. Roe.” SPRING IS HERE ability to handle his own affairs well. | There would be a large woman's vote for Mr. McMillan. They, especially appreciate the necessity of frequent housecleaning even though the prem- ises may not be remarkably dirty. Without disparaging the other publican candidates for the mayorali- ty at this time The Herald hopes for the sake of the welfare of the city and not at all for his own sake that Dugald | McMillan decides to give the republi- | cans of the city whether or not th other candidates. sincerely The Tierald resorts to the | old wish: re- | | the chance to say | % Then, honestly and prefer him to the “May the best man win.” ‘ | 1T SPIRIT. — The attitude of the democratic can- didates for the mayoralty as indicat- ed by the sugges! of Alderman Paonessa that the party nominee be selected py baliot of the people, and the acceptance of his suggestion by | Joseph M. Halloran, is admsirable. It may not be supposed that either can- didate for the nomination expects he | will lose by the arrangement and the cynics may have the pleasure of de- claring that the mutual willingness to accept the plan is prompted by selfishness. This, however, does not destroy the significance of the fact that both ‘are ion | So it's true. She is here—Spring.

VELT RELICS"” Guns, knives, chaps and cooking utensils used by the late Theodore Roosevelt in his “cowboy days" out West have been placed on exhibition in New York. They will be viewed with interest. They are suggestive of the primitive instincts of the man when he was alive—suggestive of his strength and love of all that was strl)ng, violent, rugged. The man had enemies, cnergetic opponents, innumerable warm friends. People differed as to his wisdom, his “RO! People differed as to many of his characteristics. But all people agreed that he was a man strong enough to fight for the cause he espoused, determined to stick to his guns. ‘Were it possible to place a great reservoir of the strength and de- termination and decision of character that was Theoilore Roosevelt's where it might be “tapped” by men in pub- lic life, the good that would come to this country would be inestimable. No nfan may reach perfection in wis- dom. Theodore Roosevelt did not. But every man may strengthen . his determination, his character. A great flood of strength and fear‘lessness flow- ing from such a Roosevelt reservoir over all the country would give it the sort of bath that it needs. People will, perhaps, feel this in thinking of the “Roosevelt relics” now on view in New York. 'Facts and Fancies (BY ROBERT QUILLEN) Apparently there is still enough moisture to sprout wild oats.
