We wake in the morning with no knowledge of where our senses have been wandering while the body slept; with vigor and interest we enter upon our work and fulfill our dutics with an energy that begins to fail as the evening shadows lengthen; as darkness comes weariness settles upon us, and we are glad to lay aside our work and cares and to surrender ourselves to the deeper sleep that spirits the soul back again into the unknown. Each day has its own allotted task—no more It is only when we go beyond that which is given us for the day and force the mind and body to do things not worth while; when we are not content to bear the evils of the day, but harass ourselves with anticipations of those the future may bring; when we are not satisfied with the “daily bread” for which One wiser than we taught us to pray, but strive to lay up a useless surplus to leave behind; when the pleasures that were given us to enjoy in wholesome moderation degenerate into Sensuous excesses—it is only then that outraged nature en- forces sentence for the violation of her laws, and sanitariums and lunatic asylums are filled with victims of ill-regulated lives. *“* The sinking sun strikes the horizon and its glow splinters fnto a thousand gleaming shafts.

Hay himself admitted that Roosevelt carried this state against Taft prior to the Aberdeen convention. It was Gov. Hay who suggested a compromise of 10 del- egates for Roosevelt and four for Taft. Hay knew of the theft perpetrated by this state. But he refused to have a ial session pass a presidential preference primary law. ad he is sanctioning the theft by supporting Taft. ** That's another reason why he needed $13,000 to spend , on the primary nomination and needs about $50,000 for the final election.

THE character assassins in both of the old parties have n their work against “Bob” Hodge, now that they realize that they cannot meet him successfully on the issues and principles involved in the state campaign. They are stooping to the lowest depths of vilification and falsity in the hope that 11th-hour cam- ign lies might hurt him. But Frodee, always ready to give a “square deal,” will get a “square deal” from the voters. He will gain, rather than suf- fer, by such attacks.

It is the expres sion of a determination of Christian Europe to rid herself of the ‘un- speakable’ Turk,’ it spoke Baron Arthur Groedel of Budape when seen yesterday at the Hote! Washington Baron Groédel, making a tour of America, received, on Sunday, a gable from a brother, who is an of ficer in the Bulgarian army, advie ing him to return home immedtate- ly on account of the war situation Baron Groedel left Beattie last night for home, via San Francleco. According to the baron, the “Young Turk” movement is a fail ure, and there is as much corrup- ton in the new sultan’s regime as there was in the old one's, ‘It the powers cared to protect Turkey,” he sald, “they would have interfered long ago, Neither Bng land and France, with their ‘en tente cordiale, nor Germany, Aus tria aod Italy, with their ‘triple ab liane,” have considered it worth their while to interfere, Back of this nequieseence, though not ex pressed, is the thought that Europe ia not large enough to hold both the Christian and Moslem faiths. Only the attitude of Russia is still in doubt.” The baron seid, with pride, that the Bulgarian army is recognized as being the finest and best-equip- ped in Europe. “We have,” he sald, “200,000 soldiers in our standing army, and, while that is not many as compared with the kaiser’s mill- jon, it still is large enough to be a factor in international politics, And,” he added, “for the first time, the Balkan states, so often torn by dissension, aro in perfect agree ment,” As to what would be done with the Turkish territory In Europe when the Turks have been driven into Asia, the baron refused to epeculate.
