They may burn it in battleships or to boil eggs, as they plea: But they may burn it without paying toll to a Guggenheim or a Morgan railroad or ship. ) | STAR—WEDNESDAY, MARCH 27, 1912.

LaFollette will stand for that to the end as he has heretofore stood, through defeat and deser- tion, sickness and health, for the right. | They “Seen” Their Daty President Taft ran 272 votes ahead of the payroll in North Dakota. Oh, yes, he did! _ The returns from. 1,450 out of 1,800 election precincts in North Dakota give Taft a total of 1,543 votes. The Blue Book (the government publication giving entire wernment payroll) says that there are 1,643 United States jobholders in North Dakota. So that the president was only an even 100 votes behind the whole payroll, with 350 precincts yet to be heard from. If the present speed is maintained there should be 372 Taft otes in the remaining 350 precincts It is safe, then, to predict that the great judicial mind has fun ahead of the payroll some 272 votes in a single state. On the face of the returns not only every man on the gov- ernment payroll stood loyal to his boss, but some thirteen score and a dozen brought also with them to the ballot box male off- spring of about 21 years of age or sons-in-law living at home. Truly a splendid showing both for master and men. Truly.

Instead of enfranchising the women China has disenfran- ehised the men—which is a saffron joke. Mr, Pewee—Do you ever quarrel with your wife?

We should certainly practice economy, but good financiering does not consist in a penny-wise and pound-foolish practice, From the efforts being put forth, it would almost seem we were called upon to sacrifice a principle for the self-aggrandizement of a smail minority of the citizens of the state, by refusing to call a apectal session of our legisiature, for the purpose of passing a preference pri- mary bill. In our estimation, seldom has a measure been presented to the American people so far-reaching, calling for a free expression from all, and upon a matter of vital importance.

Beloved by all, a statesman in the true acceptation of the term, tried and not found wanting, he can adjust diplomatic affairs to the entire satisfaction of both parties as no other person has been able to do since our civil war. A friend to labor, capital, rich and poor, bond and free, combined with firmness that all must abide by law and order, or suffer its penal- ties.
