Playing Falr,
The fact that for nearly four years
our Republican brethren have been
kept out of reach of loaves and fishes
usually spread for their own special
seizure has created in their minds a
sort of morbid irritation, but there is
once in a while an editor with a clear-
er view and the courage to say what
he knowe. Under the caption, * Let
Us Play Fair,” The mstockton ( Cal.)
Record of late date says :
While the festive Presidential candi-
date rages and ranges over the country
impliedly belittling our army and
navy as products of the present Ad-
ministration, fidelity to candor and
truth inspires the observation that the
army and navy banded over to Mr.
Wilson were the same army and Davy
that excited no perfervid solicitude on
the part of the Roosevelt and Taft ad-
ministrations,
The Wilson Administration has
done more to keep the peace and more
to prepare for war than any preceding
Administration of either party atany
past emergent occasion since the Re-
public was founded. The country
can’t be carried for Hughes in Nov-
ember on any blood-and-'hunder is-
sue. There is no hoodwinking capa
bility in the preparedness outery.

Hail, Hail! Renowned is Center county,

Vast mineral wealth thy terra firma yields,
With forests thou art lavishly adorned ;

How limpid are thy brooks and beauteous streams,
Pure, deep and grand thy numerous fountains are :
Great are thy caves, yea, truly wonderful ;
