IT is unfortunate for a man to get into politics , and if we had a real good friend that we loved as a brother , we would advise'him to keep out of it entirely. It is like sticky fly paper. It is a little tempting and when you fall into it it tastes a little sweet at first , but you tug and pull and wear your life away trying to get out of it. We know men now who are down flat in the sticky stuff , both wings fast and their legs all stuck tight trying to pull themselves out of the sticky mess. The very best advice you can give any man is to keep out of politics.-York Times. POLITICS as well as political leaders are a necessity and the public is interested in keeping them both up to as high a standard - ard as possible. The misfortune is that many misunderstand the qualifications of a politician. It requires the same characteris- 'tics to succeed as in other spheres. -It is not chicanery or trickery that makes a good politician. On the contrary , honor and straightforwardness - wardness are eminently necessary. So are courage and faithfulness , Nor are bottonholing and talking to people iii stage whispers and doing things covertly the way to win. The truly successful politician - cian is a bold man whose word is as good as his bond , who talks straight out and always has a side. The people like a man whom they know where to find. He must have friends and be true to them. Nothing so tries a manly exhibition of gratitude-returning their favors with interest-stand- ing by them when it involves sacrifice as readily as when it involves - volves nothing. The candidate , who goes about beggarlike , with outstretched hand always asking alms , and yet who for fear of losing , , friends , will never help , anybody , is surely doomed.-Beaver City Tribune.
