The announcement of the primary eosts in New York state for the Roose- velt cause, showing the expenditure of over $59,000, probably indicates the beginning of another explanation of | the sudden rise in Roosevelt votes in last week's conventions. Money talks, and it has been extensively used in the states where the primaries have been held. In the direct appeal to the people it has to be used freely to ac- complish results, and the expenditures in Pennsylvania are estimated to have run as high as a quarter of a million, Allegheny county getting $100,000. This ! great use of money was what it was the primaries would stop in on 0 machine operations, but a money machine the expendi- tures are greater and the control fis apt to follow the coin. Money has ruled in many instances and it is a with pec r condition of affairs that the a spending of money by the Ro men in his own state strengthened the belief in the fact that Be is being backed by the money inter- LN s remembered what a scandal was siirred up by the great expenditure of money in the Stephenson case, and the very Lorimer agalnst whom Rooseveit s always ranting, evidently offered the suggestion for the securing of a desired office regardless of the cost. In t(wo instances a npational scandal was provoked. Money, not the people, cal the Colonel, and money, not the people, is boosting his campaign. It was in reference to machine poli- tics that Roosevelt spoke in Nebraska Thursday, when, after wrongly charg- ng President Taft with intrusting his faith 1o Senator Lorimer, Penrose, Gallinger and others, he said When I was presideni 1 saw all those men: I consuited with them, but I @ldn’t let them be my master. When- er there was a line-up between them d the people 1 was against them,” Wiil he listen, poseible, to George R. Perkins, Frank A. Munsey, Senator Flinn and others SECRETARY KNOX'S VISIT. In sending Secretary Knox to the Central and South American countries, President Roosevelt desired to secure a better understanding between the governments than that which had sprung up in some quarters through outside influences. How successful he was in accomplishing the errand, time alone can tell, but there is satisfac- tion in the fact that he is optimistic as to the results and he is in a posi- ion to judge. By frankly seiting forth t ettitude of the country and the wisdom of the larger nation helping the weaker to help themselves, he be- lieves the spirit of uneasiness has been dispersed. By such a visit and a dec- laration of the policy of the country to be for the interests of all strengthening Pan-American ties retary Knox had an important duty to perform. That he did it well is be- lieved and a check thereby put on the | influences which have been at work | to create a spirit of ill will. It should | steady their confidence in our motives and result in increased good will and better commercial relations, There has been great umrest in those republics and they are subject to disturbing in- | fluences much of the time. Thls nat- | urally gives this country concern and | embarrassment because of the rela- tions involved by the Monroe doctrine | so that visits similar to that just end- ed have been found to be of great help. There was little unpleasantness worth speaking of, and, like Secretary Root's of the South American repub- the benefit therefrom will be last- BENZOATE OF SODA. In the state of Indiana, where State Feod Commissioner H, . Barnard and | the beard of health have been working 1 in the interests of pure food here is general interest in the | on of soda. is held that the state to prohibit the sale of foodstuffs which contain benzoate of soda. This question as to the danger- ous qualities of the preservative has ong been before the people and the answer has been eagerly benzoate rt it has the right ought as to what it is and what does. 1t has] been one of the most important ob- jects of attention in the pure-food cru- | sade. 1t was f used as a remedial | agent, but it had come to be exten- | sively d as a.powerful agent for| the stopping of decay ready under way Most people have which was al- | desire eat | no to food in which decay has developed. | Expert chemists not be employ of | the government have testified to the | danger of the drug, If it is not dan- gerous it i8 used to fool the people | into believing that od is fit to eat| when, as a matter of fact ,it is not, and | through its use the “arrested” decay | is foisted on the people as a pure ar- ticle. The contest on both sides has been hotly fought, and it is likely that the Indiana decision will be appesied for a higher opinion. If it is harmful the drug should no' be permitied the country, let alone Indiana n It is the newspaper that prints the latest and only the reliable news that makes its appeal to the people in, times like these. The Bulletin Fri- day morning had news which the met- ropolitan journals will not have until today. Captain Smith of the Titanic was! ‘oing his duty. The speed craze is so te that speed is an asset, and that s why great liners strive to make sur- & speed records. Public de- 1 s at the bottom of some of our s. Fyen if President Taft has heen ad- tted to the Maryland division of the »fessional chauffeurs’ union, he'll ake no attempt to speed beyond the constitution, run down the common people or fall te keep to the right. It s the ocean greyhound with (he proper squipment of lifeboats that will . #o ihe businesy wfter this SAFETY BEFORE SPEED. There is no rule of the sea which requires the collision of vessels be- cause both are on the same course, or for collision with any obstruction after due warning has been given, vet such seems to have been the case with the lost Titanic. The steamer Mesaba had wired the Titanic of the great field of ice and bergs which it had encoun- tered and was going to the south to avoid. The Titanic expressed thanks, but failed to follow the advice and &peed was not even reduced. In view of conflicting stories at the present time and lack of exact data, allowances must be made, but the fact nevertheless remains that there was a needless sacrifice of life which was probably promoted by the frenzied contest for speed supremacy, implicit faith in the unsinkable ship and there- fore inadequate life saving apparatus. The line was trying out a new boat, the greatest ever. They were willing to take the chance, and cast aside the warnings of danger, for the flood of business their first trip would attract. They were keeping pace with the de- mand of the times. It might be termed a joy ride at sea. The one chance of such a result in a thousand similar accidents had been taken, and that one was the greatest ocean tragedy. A detour about the ice pack or reduced speed would have made the ship late in port, but how much better had it required two'weeks to reach port than to have sent 1,600 souls to eternity in that manner. It is about time ocean speeding was stopped. Legislation can regulate the conditions under which passengers are protected, and hereafter it is believed that the steamship lines will realize the advantage of advertising safety and lifeboats rather than speed and unsinkable ships. Investigations are to be made both here and in England, but it is noticeable that the great ship was one which had never reached this shore. It furnishes the cxample, how- ever. by which ocean and coasting vessels are to be judged. CONVENTION CAUCUS DAY. There is much to commend in the action of the state republican conven- tion in the passage of the proposed change in rules which makes it nec- essary to hold the caucuses for the election of delegates to the state con- vention on the same day. Under past methods it was up to the town chair- man to call a caucus when he wished, which was an irregular method of pro- cedure that has now been overcome. The objection to the plan, which pre- vents a flock of leaders from circling the towns in behalf of their interests, was all put forward by E. S, Bank of Fairfield, whose interest was in behalf of the small towns. His ar- gument that the small towns are hand- fcapped for hall-room may be true, but the average town hall is not so crushed with business that the use of it can- not be secured a few minutes in the evening for a caucus. The change will appeal to the voters of the state, as it is a declaration for straight pol ics and against professional politi- cians. It should prove an easy matter for the small towns to adjust themselves to the rule and it is for their inter- ests to do so. The adoption of the rule was for the securing of uniformity in action and the elimination of run- ning of the small caucuses by influ- ences circulating about the state, timed to include veral which the old rule permitted.

Sensitiveness is a fault and a weakness, and the chances are that it is not herditary, if you think it is. It is an easy and cow- ardly way to excuse faults by blaming our parents for them. The kind of mind exercise we all need is to blame ourselves more; then we shall discov- er that we are inclined to blame other folks less. Not half the faults alleged to be hereditary are; and if they all were, that is not a defense for them, since we may acquire the ability to overcome them. Will is the hammer God has given us to break old habits with, and to beat into shape new ones, which are more beneficial and more to our credit. We are not here to confirm the life of our ancestors, but to live a life which shall conform to divine principles and be positively a life of our own. While there are many who agree with Solomon that there is no new thing under the sun, there are those who believe in new eras, new thought and many another alleged new thing Those who agree with Solomon take exception at the point of the new soul. A new era is usually enough like the old one to seem like an old one: and new thought is found in old books in less concentrated form perhaps than it is presented to us today. As to new souls, they will have to be recognized ag such, for they dream old dreams over, and think they are new; and dress up thoughts so old that they are world vagrants in lierature, and think that they are original. The new soul is recognizable from its verdure just as a new mound is; and perhaps they furnish the spice of life. If there isn't anything new under the sun it may be better to think there is. Boys who get busy in .their .early ‘teens make successful men, if they have a purpose and keep on the main track. The boy must keep his ears open and his eyes open and his mouth shut (it's healthlest to breathe through the nose), and keep his mental gauge broad if his industrial gauge is nar- row. He should not worry about do- ing too much, or knowing too much. It is not hard work that kills a per- son, but failure to take notice of the admonishing signals when he overdoes | it—it is not work that kills, but folly. The boy who takes such an interest in his employer's business that he speals of it as “our business,” is making roots in the sustaining soil, for it is the feel- ing of partnership which makes him ettentive to all the little economies and makes him profitable help and a com- ing man. Don't dilly-dally. Some boys who loaf on their employer's time | do not know they are beating them- selves, not their employers. Try to ex- cel—do not be satisfied with being an average worker. Win something bet- ter which the world holds for you. It strikes me that a ‘rare day in June” does not impress one so deeply as a perfect April morning, when the odor of spring is in the air and the birds are singing in the trees, and the cobalt-blue sky has white scuds fol- lowing one another across it, an ar- mada of peace which instead of shot and shell shower upon earth the life- preserving rains, All nature in this month seems to be breaking forth in praise to God, and the heart seems to recognize it as a season of festivity— the new verdure and foliage, the flow- ing brooks and flowers, all seem to be jubilant, for the sun in its greater strength and beauty is teaching all the earth a lesson upon the triumph | of life over death. The leaves flutter |and the sun’s rays seem to dance as in no nother month as the way is being | prepared for May and the month of | roses, A good laugh Is better than a good cry, any time. It puts melancholy un- der foot and keeps the spirits high land the liver right. It is a fact that lone good laugh is worth more than a | hundred deep sighs in any market. It lis a good thing to laugh when you do | not know what else to do, even at the | risk of being called impolite, or heart- |less. There are occasions when a |laugh appears to be akin to shame: |but it is never against the general | nealth, whatever its relation may be to the so-called proprieties. No one {has to be told how much better a joke is than a jeer, or a joy than a grief. | Every docior knows a good laugh is {the best kind of medicine. No doctor | ever expects to find melancholia in a | family that laughs. It is possible for | mirth to cut down the doctor’s bill. A good laugh and good health are a | brotherly pair.

PROPHECIES A bunch of violets, both blue and ‘white, was given to me today by a little girl. Needless to say, I was very greatly pleased with them, for aside from some pussy willows, they were the first messengers from the woods to me, and they told me of many things delightful to hear. Among the rest they promised to send more of their own lovely family to me as the weeks go on, and assured me those should be taller than they. Sweeter they could not be, for the blue ones were fragrant with the pure air of the wild and the fresh odor of the earth, while the white ones had in addition to all this, a delicate frag- rance reminding one of the Easter lilies, though far less powerful than the perfume which fllled our church- es a week ago. Compare the size of the little white violet with the great, swinging in- cense cups of the Ililies, and the wonder grows still greater that these shy, first fruits of spring, tucked down so closely on their short stems, clinging so timidly to Nature’s moth- erly breast, should gather sweetness enough to so cheer and enliven one’s senses with a glad feeling that spring is coming. AlL of us hail the violets with re- joicing for they seem to be advance heralds for the long procession which is to come later. Even their gorgeous cousins, the pansies, cannot turn our affection from the modest little wild flower. Pansies are the grandees of the family and demand and receive careful attention and devoted culture, akin to worship, but these little daughters of the wildwood ask nof care at our hands, and give freely of their beauty, winning our love by their retiring modesty and shy behavior. We prize them far beyond the show- ier blooms of the later season. Another forecast of spring came to my notice a few days ago. The first robin appeared on our lawn, and a plump, aldermanic specimen he was, too. He looked about him with an air of disgust at the state of things in | general, and plainly evidenced his chagrin at the lack of preparation for his coming. “Why,” said he, “the lawns are not all cleaned up yet, and the plowing is not done in the neighboring garden where I usually count on finding a luscious breekfast. Have I come too early this year? I am sure, judging from the height of the sun, my reck- oning is right, but my feet are quite chilled with the frost, and I almost wish 1 had remained a little longer in the rice flelds at the South. But I was getting so corpulent, the flight northward seemed the best thing for me. I am the better for it, and per- haps matters will improve in a few days. Anyway I'll stay and take the risk. Whew! what a vile odor 1 no- | be glad to welcome “Spring, sweet Spring, the year's pleasant king.” AN IDLER. s s OF SPRING s ticed just then! This lawn is cover- ed with something that quite takee away my appetite. A white powder | is scattered all about. 1 don’t think‘ I like worms flavored with this stuff. But I am hungry enough to take al- most anything in line of food, 8o here | goes for the first worm I find.” And | he cocked his head to one side as if | listening for a moment, and then with a hop and skip he pounced upon some- thing evidently quite to his liking for he gulped it down with apparent satis- faction, though perhaps not quite so palatable as common. He plainly was not yet prepared to call out, “Cheer up! Cheer up!” but at his next visit 1 hope he may find his surroundings more in accord with | his taste. He evidently was disap- pointed because the cherries were so backward in developing on the very tree in which he built his nest only a year ago. We hope he may be induc- ed to try again this year. He is the same bird, I am certain that used to be supplied with crumbs from the kitchen window, for he look- ed all about that corner of the prem- ises as if in search of something well remembered. “My fine fellow,” thought I, “your ration shall be ready for you on your next visit.” I'd rather feed the robin than the tramp who called at the door for food a few days ago. He was told there was nothing for him in the morning, and, leaning against the side of the porch, he blandly inquired, “How will it be tomorrow morning?”’ My robin will at least give us a song in payment. There are fewer cats in the vicinity than there were a few years ago, so we hope for more bird visitors. Their morning song of praise is a pleasant thing to hear, much more 80 than to be awakened by affrighted screams of “Cats! Cats! Come Kkill the cats!” Another token of oncoming spring greeted us last night as we climbed the hill toward home. That was the note of the teacher-bird, calling, “Teacher! Teacher! Teacher!” repeat- edly with a frantic, hurried utterance. I am told another name for this bird is the oven-bird. Has she forgotten since last year how to build her nest, and is she now asking for assistance? It is to be hoped her teacher is with- in hearing and willing to render the help she wants. Other people tell me they heard the peep-frogs, but I have not as yet? I hope I shall soon, for 1 love to hear them rehearsing their songs from the distant marshes to let us all know more certainly that spring is on her way, and that we must be ready to re- celve her. I am confident that after this long ice-bound spell we shall all of California poppies 5 inches apart, and two of petunias 6 inches apart.

SUNDAY MORNING TALK The High Cost of Right Living. I shall not bring coals to Newcastle by telling you anything about the high cost merely of living. The butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker are giving you all needful in_ struction along that line, With almost every commodity on the jump, milllons of American families are finding it a serious problem to keep ahead of xhel bill collector. | | At this time we speak rather of the high cost of right living. Kindly note the qualifying adjective. I want to| take the discussion for a moment or two into a higher realm, and make it a concern of moral life rather than of mere physical existence. Existence is not necessarily expensive. A crust or | two and a few glasses of water a day will do the trick for any of us. Gen- uinely right living, on the other hand, whether one is accustomed to dine on terrapin or on black bread, is a very costly proposition, And it will be no cheaper whether the price of foodstuffs goes up or down. It is not an easy matter in this] world to stand up to one’s ideals. Such loyalty, whatever the old school copy- books used to tell us, means struggle | and sacrifice. He who hitches his wagon to a star is going to find rough | traveling. The best and most genuine | people in the community are not al-| ways the people receiving the largest degree of popular acclaim. The man who lives clean, tells the truth, works | for the public good without any ulter- | ior motives ,is by no means sure of re- celving all the bouquets. Instead, he is likely to get kicks and cuffs, and| sneers, The better a man is, the more | will all evil men hate him. History proves the case up to the hilt. You have a reason why Dante, most luminous spirit of his age, one of the greatest poets of all time, must die a broken-hearted exile. You have a reason why noble-spirited Paul of Tarsus must lay his neck on the heads- man’s block, You have a reason why Jesus of Nazareth, great friend of humanity, must die at the hands of implacable enemies. The world has a way of stoning its prophets and set- ting at naught its moral leaders., Any- one who has lifted his head Abu\'('l the level of his times has had to face the opposing spirit of commercialism and utility. Our own age is nowise different in this regard from iis pred- ecessors. His biographer telis how ,during the | last 10 years of his short life, the com- poser Mozart lived in the great pleas- | ure-loving city of Vienna. He was in| extreme poverty ,eking out a preca- | rious support by glving concerts and] piano lessons, Often he actually suf_ tered from cold and hunger, His com- positions brought him in little or noth- ing, the public preferring the “rag- time” of that day to the more serious works of the master. When his pub- | lisher told him that he must write in an easy, popular style or not a mnote would be printed, nor a cent paid him, he replied, “Then, my good sir, T have only to resign myself and die of hun- ger.” It doesn’t cost much merely {o Ilve, | to exist, as the clam does in the har- bor mud; but to live right—that is an expensive matter. The man who stands for a principle, suffers for the truth, and proves loyal to an ideal must frequently exercise a force of will and a patience in sacrifice that moral misers know nothing about. The costliest product in creation is a righteous character; and it is worth all it costs. The best things in life | come high, If you start out to buy a genuine Franz Hals or Rembrandt! you are likely to pay for it at about | the rate of $1000 per square inch. A sign painter will cover a whole board Jfence for you at a cheaper rate than that. If you get the masterpiece you are going to settle a big bill, And it is not otherwise with character. When & man invests in a good life e invests In that which will outlast the stars. An approving consclence is | the supreme earthly boon. Any ma- | terial success 15 us dust and ashes be- | side that. When one comes to realize these things he is consclous of no sac- ritfice and no regret as he gladly pays the high cost of right living. !
