This doesn’t mean much to a city man. But it does to an old-timer who can recall when a farmer was often completely out of touch with the outside world ex- cept when he hitched up and went to town once a week. Our generation is ending isolation and conquering dis- tance. This has its advantages. But there’s apt to be Jess individual thinking when there’s too much contact with other minds. ‘The republican vote of Mississippi has announced himself as in favor of Coolidge. right.

But we don’t see how this par- _ticular brand of speed makes life more enjoyable or in- teresting. Most of us forget that we have all eternity ahead of us.

Raisuli Dead Again THAT Moorish bandit, Mr. Raisuli, is dead once nore, being unable to digest a dose of poison sent him in appreciation of his great deeds. If Raisuli stays dead this time, it will be a sad affliction to the newspaper fraternity. Mn Raisuli’s professional exploits have furnished a fine series of newspaper stories and, besides, he was a diplomat who could get some $50,000 out of a newspaper man. There was that time in 1901, when Mr. Raisuli cap- tured Walter Harris, correspondent of the London Time: and valued him at 10,000 pounds sterling. Walter woke up to find, sitting by man dressed in Walter’s own clothes. It was Mr. Raisuli’s Cute way of suggesting prompt payment, and Walter Faised the money, demonstrating to the entire fraternity the possibilities of a newspaper career. Yes, we shall miss Mr. Raisuli.

JIM GOOD, Middle-Western Coolidge ma’ believes in. starting the spe republican party,” advi Mr. Good, “will not indorse President Coolidge’s achievements and then fail to in- dorse him as its candidate.” In view of President Coolidge’s present achievements, this sounds somewhat premature, but, maybe, Mr. Good has advance information of achievements to come before June 10. About the only visible Coolidge achievements to date are a right f demonstration of unequivocal standpatism and a tenc toward “lame ducks.” Mr. Coolidge has not yet had a fair chance to do much achieving. He may do much between now and June 10, He ought to. nes That 50-year-old Ne ried « 16-year-old youth Probably had some or out raising her boy to be a husband.
