and they pay fire insurance to

insurance against dull times is
just as essential , for this may be
as fatal as death or fire. Ju-

A Newspapers Duty
Thnt was n felicitous phrase
whic'h Attorney General Bonaparte
UHPjl when he declared that "n
fret press is n perpetual petition ,
alwnyo telling a government whnt
the people wish and hope for and
think is "
right. But the paper ,
whether a party organ or not ,
which olops with this parrot-like
chronicling of the current opinions
oft the public is not doing its
whole duly by that very public
and certainly not by iteelf. Such
an oigan is little better than a
painted rooster on the barn ridge ,
telling which wny the wind blows.
Very often the winds are merely
those of popular clamor and prej
udice and they get the direclious
badly mixed , HO that "norlh" be
comes" soulh" and "ensl"is"weat. "
Kather should a free press bo n
compass , pointing always toward
the polar star of fixed convictions
of right and truth and justice.
Many I newspapers which vaunt
their "freedom1' and "independ
ence" < nro but the "mountain"
,
which "goes to Mahomet , ' ' the
people , when Mahomet refuses to
come to the mountain. Human
.
judgment is falible , but funda
mental , and elemental principles
of justice and right do not alter
with the complexion of adminis
,
trations. The people have out
grown . < the era of "yellow dog"
journalism. To a conscientious
and sincere press men nnd mean-
ures . are nolhing when they do uol
stand . Ihe compass lesl of unswerv
ing . principles of right. So far
from the so-called "independent1'
press being the keeper of the conscience -
science of the " "
"people , the duty
of adhering to the right without
regard to who musl fall devolves
with parlicular insistence upon
the party press. The "workers"
in the 'steenth ward may rail be
cause the "party organ" does not
support the "administration , "
right or wrong , but it is not
always the pnrty organ that is at
fault' .
Administrations come and ad 1-
ministrations go. This adminis 1B
tration may pursue one policy and ,
the next one another , as the last
ono pursued still another. Any ' .
party organ which is a mere politi i-
cal acrobat , mimicking the feats
of this or that , deserves the scorn
of the fair-minded and thoughtful ,
inside nnd outside "the parly. n
And it usually geta it. Thf true
republican organ is that which :
supports the principles on which
republicanism is founded , not >
merely the candidates who , for the
time being march under the party
banner , often "stealing the livery
of heaven lo serve the devil in. "
Just now one of thu duties of the
true republican preps is to tight
the socalled republicans who are
fighting republicanism within the
party. Knnsna Oily Journal.

The Roosevelt idea is right

the coroporatiou as the citizen.
And this means in Hiawatha

should put in brick and cement

Itk
means the } ' should not block :
the streets or close any street

Running Risks !
Despite the prevalence ol robbery , a few continue to"
keep money about their homes. In thus doing , they
are not only risking the loss of money , but also their
lives. How much safer and better it would be if
these people were to bring their money to the bank.
Are you running such risks ?
