THE REASON.
There Is good reason why
many men should bitterly oppose

Indeed there is, Colonel! Very
good reason. There Is the best of
reason why all sober-minded citizens

HAY FEVER.
The rag weed (ambrosia artemisl
aefolla) is now in blossom and the
pollen, which is alleged to create hay
fever, Is In the air, though It is claim
ed in certain quarters that atmos
pheric conditions and constitutional
weakness are the cause of hay fever.
At any rate, people have the distress
ing and annoying nasal and throat
trouble and depressing effects In cer
tain localities or sections of the
country and get relief only by going
to the hills or mountains until Aut
umn frost comes and clears up the
atmosphere.
Hay fever has never been known
to listen to reason or to take advice.
Sneezing has been tried, and has
failed. Ono of tho striking features
of the misfortunes known as hay
fever is the persistent nature of the
remedy promoters. As each remedy
makes the attack from three to sev
en times worse the remedy becomes
part of tho general plan of demon
strating just what agonies the pa
tient can endure. As must have
been inferred by the layman, the bet
ter the general health of the victim,
the more poignant his sufferings un
der an attack of hay fever. The
more ho can stand the more ho can
take on. A patient fully equipped
-with nervous energy and constitu
tional endurance, after a Summer
spent In preparation, can, If he ag
gravates the conditions with suffi
cient remedies, wallow In misery of
the most exquisite nature, and each
season establish a new record for hu
man endurance and a new justifica
tion of the divine plan. Some, weak
mortals, take to flight, and become
exiles rather than face tho martyr
dom. But enough will always re
main to show the utter Impotence of
the doctors, and tho consummate
cunning of nature. Scranton Times.
THE ANIMUS OF MAGAZINES.
Many persons who have a sincere
desire to be fair to President Taft
have made up their minds that he
must he an undesirable sort of Chief
Magistrate, because the magazines of
the country even those which are
supposed to bo entirely non-political
are prejudiced against him.
For this "there is a reason," as
they say of the breakfast food. Mr.
Toft's administration has Insisted
that tho magazine publishers should
pay their way through tho mails as
other business men do who aro no
more prosperous than they.
From tho practical viewpoint of
vote-getting, this was Impolitic, of
course. You may oven bollevo that
tho publishers have good grounds for
complaint, although It seems to us
unfair to expect tho government to
mako them rich by paying a largo
annual postal deficit.
But whother you sldo with tho
publishers or not In this single dis
pute you must admit that every
magazlno in the country has a per
sonal motive In wishing to prevent
President Taft's re-election.
And it Is certainly to the credit
by the Cltlzon Publishing Company.
e. b. liAitnr.NnKniiii
W. W. WOOD
of the President that he has refused
to advance his own interests by mol
lifying the Irate publishers, just as
he has declined to temporize with
his tariff principles by signing the
wool and steel bills forced through
Congress by the coalition of Demo
crats and "progressives" for purely
campaign purposes without any ref
erence to the difference In the cost
of production at homo and abroad.
Mr. Taft is not a politician. Ho is
a statesman who has tho courage of
his convictions, and who at all times
and under all circumstances declines
to prostitute his high office by using
it for his own personal advantage.
This is the "weakling" denounced
as the "creature" of those iniquitous
"special Interests" which aro leading
and financing the fight to elect any
body except William Howard Taft
President of the United States.
Harrisburg Telegraph.
THE PROGRESSIVE CONVENTION
Aside from the trouble which arose
by reason of the turning out of the
negro delegates from the South, tho
'Progressive convention at Chicago
went through according to pro
gramme without a hitch. There was
no reason why it shouldn't. It was
conceived, planned and carried out
by one man. All other Progressives
deferred to his wish and obeyed his
will, and whatever was said by the
convention It was tho voice of Roose
velt that spoke. He Is not only the
candidate and leader of the new
party, he is tho party Itself. Appar
ently sobered by a sense of his own
responsibility, ho exercised much
self-restraint both in his speech ex
pounding his political views and pro
gramme, and In the declarations of
his platform. Neither aro nearly as
radical as his former utterances had
led the public to expect they would
be. Ho still holds, but with no
great emphasis, to the subversive
doctrines of the recall of judges and
of judicial decisions. Aside from
these positively injurious principles
and the doctrines of tho Initiative
and referendum and of woman Buf
frage, which are, to say the least,
of doubtful expediency, tho platform
contains nothing that may no con
sidered new, startling or revolution
ary. Many of its nest features aro con
tained, in different form in the plat
forms adopted by tho Republican
and Democratic conventions. In
deed, tho real Republican Progres
sive will find nothing of valuo in tho
principles enunciated by the new
party that ho does not find in tho
principles adopted by the Republi
can party. The radical point of dif
ference between the two is that Col.
Roosevelt attempts to draw to him
tho army of tho discontented by
promises and visions of equality and
prosperity that he cannot hope to
fulfill, to be obtained by means
which aro uttorly subversive of con
stitutional rights and orderly pro
cedure; while tho Republican policy
1b that of sure and steady progress
along constitutional lines, equality
of opportunity to all, and the pro
tection of every man's right to ob
tain prosperity "fairly.
As to the legal right of Col.
Roosevelt and hlB followers to
launch a new party, It cannot bo de
nied. But before tho fall elections
occur tho people will have discover
ed It to bo a needless extravagance,
slnco it offers no inducement to
'Democrats to abandon their own
faith, and offers nothing to Repub
licans that thoy cannot obtain hy ad
herence to their own party. So far
as is now apparent tho now party has
but ono real purpose In Its being
and that is to afford Col. Roosevelt
an opportunity to run as a candidate
for tho presidency.
WISDOM IN TAFT VETOES.
It begins to dawn upon business
men generally that President Taft,
by his vetoes of tho wool and steel
bills, lias saved the country from
hasty and Ill-considered tariff legis
lation which might havo dono a
great deal to upset confidence and
effectually check tho tldo of com
mercial prosperity which has 'boon
slowly hut steadily rising for some
weeks. Clearly It was tho purpose
of Democratic and Progressiva Sen
ators and Representatives In their
attitude on tho tariff to mako cam
paign mnterlal which they thought
would aid them nt tho election in
November and work a corresponding
Injury to the Republican cause. But
tho veto messages of President Taft
were so convincing that tho bills
could not bo passed over his objec
tion. Ills logical arguments could
not but appeal to the good sense of
legislators disposed to put tho wel
fare of tho country above tho cause
of the political party which they
might espouse.
By fearlessly performing his duty
President Taft has mado many
friends. He has forcibly directed at
tention to the fact that but for a
Republican President, the steel In
dustry, which is Just recovering
from a period of semi-prostration,
would have received a blow that
might have closed Industrial plants
and thrown thousands of working
men out of employment.
Tho country can well afford to
wait to have its tariff laws revised
deliberately along Intelligent lines,
as recommended by a commission
which will study every aspect of tho
complicated subject. This has been
the position of President Taft all
along and ho deserves great credit
for adhering to his fixed policy un
der trying circumstances. Although
Woodrow Wilson, as tho leader of
the 'Democratic party, Is a strong ad
vocate of revising the tariff down
ward and very far downward he
deprecates hasty legislation and ap
proves the Republican policy of
careful Investigation by commission
in order that legislators may have
full Information upon which to base
a now tariff law. On this point the
candidate is no doubt further ad
vanced than aro most men who are
conspicuous workers within the
Democratic ranks, and if he should
be elected difficulty would arise in
restraining Democratic Congressmen
from hasty and drastic tariff legisla
tion. This is the point which forci
bly dawns upon business men since
the episodes of last week. President
Taft has advanced his own chances
of re-election by doing tho right
thing in tho rlgh way. Such acts
will far outweigh tho effect of cam
paign speeches that aro so "full of
sound and fury, signifying nothing."
Philadelphia Press.
SUCCESS IX UUSIXESS.
"The attributes in a man which
are essential to success," says Mr.
Henry Clews in the Strand, " are
honesty, fidelity, patience, judgment,
and courage. Tho big men of today
are now on the look-out for young
fellows possessing these virtues, as
the captains of industry have their
hands and heads more than full of
details, and are seeking for lieuten
ants to whom they can delegate some
of their work.
"It goes without saying that hon
esty and truthfulness are the main
qualifications, but unless backed by
judgment they will not qualify any
man to become a leader. Patience
Is a virtue, and haste to better him
self has often been the rock upon
which men havo been wrecked.
Every man should .know himself,
and with this knowledge should
know for what ho is best fitted, and
should make himself by study a mas
ter of details and conditions. When
good work has attracted tho notice
of his superiors, and he Is entrusted
with more important duties, courage
comes into play. Without the cour
age to light and to overcome diffi
culties man has not the measure of
self-confidence to ensure success.
"I made up my mind, when I at
tained my majority, that what other
men could do I could do, and courted
opposition. By hard work I forced
tho respect of all my competitors,
and in all my dealings with my fel
lowmen I sought to prove my hones
ty and fidelity, and I won out. My
advice to the young men to-day Is
to play hard and play fair while en
joying themselves, but Work equally
hard and play equally fair when
working. Success may not come at
once, but it will surely come if you
aro persistent and possess good
judgment."

TH.M PERANCE SOCIETY
HOLDS OUTING.
Temperance Day was observed
, Saturday, August 17, by Pride of

I porance, of Whlto Mills.
I Tho outing was held about a nillo
or two out of town in tho grovo
I owned by Lyman Garratt, which by
the way, Is an ideal spot for this
j purpose.
: Tho afternoon was delightfully
I spent with games of all kinds.
i Tho featuro of the afternoon's en
joyment was a baso ball game be
tween two teams known as tho
"Tigers" and tho "Cubs" In which
the Cubs triumphed by the score of
1 9 to 8. Tho gamo was very Intor-
estlng from start to finish, both
1 pitchers doing excellent work.
I Tho "Tigers" cot an earlv load
which seemed hard to overcome. At
the beginning of the seventh Inning
the score stood G to 1 In favor of
the "Tigers" and they wcro all
smiles, but their smiles soon disap
peared as in the last half of this in
ning, the "Cubs" started a rally
which completely took the "Tigers"
off their feet, and when tho dust
had settled, tho "Cubs ' had scored
eight runs to their credit.
The "Tigers" came back strong in
tho eight and ninth innings, but
were unable to again tako the lead.
The feature of the game was a homo
run made by Downs in tho first In
ning. Ho also did good work be
