Mr. Everett is free of a“ busi- ness obligatiods. He is master of his own time. He is an, old successful. business man and is . “devoted to the moral and‘nâ€"xaterial' progress of the city in an eniment degree. Agovernor has to prove him- self exceptional good like Gover- nor Hughes of New York for m- stance to get a sccand term, while legislative members are often re~ turned again and again. But we are safe in sayingthat there is no position-where it is so important that a good incumbent should boreturned as long as he is capable of performing-the duties in case of a secretary in: clerk. By the unwritten law, the law of public .sentiment, no_U. S. president can hbld ofliceimore than eight yearsâ€"two terms. But the same sentiment does not pre9 vail, concerning senators. Some of the senators in Congress, like our own Senator Cullom; are re- turned again and again, and not unfrequently serve the. country from middle life to old age. and. perhaps die in thé harness. The same principle applies to some ex? tent i‘n state and municipal affairs. The principle of election in pub- lic office is both right and wrong, bdt'h expedient and incxpedient’; according 10 circumstances: WHY ELECT ‘The NEWS-LETTER therefore votes ”Everett for Mayor.”- If we were seeking to do honor to a citizen. we might chose ac- cording to our preference for one or the other of the two men be- fore us and we certainly could- have nothing to say against either. But when the question is one of fitness‘nnd opportunity for public service it is settled for us by the superior qualifications of the one over the other. ' The qucsrio'n at the head of this article is therefore put from that standpoint. There are two can- ?dates for the. mayoyrality of the city. Inthe‘interestéofthe-whble community; wh’ich’can best serve.

Citizen's are reminded that a a public office and a vote 'are the 'same in kind. He who does not honor his vote is not fit for oflice. Both are trusts To sell them is betrayal whether the price be ”a pull”y a purse or only a vaporous cigar; It is the act of Judas ap- plied to a common trust. The true man ”holds honor. far more precious dear than life." tPubliCAtrusts are regarded as 'fair game for pu'olicv‘plunder by many men who would no‘t‘dis- honor themselves. in their personal or private affairs. This seems to be a fitting time to remind each other that a political trust is more sacred than a personal asset. Just because it is "a trust” it should be guarded better than one’s purse.‘ Buying the Lenten scaSOn thous- and of ,men have poured con- tempt and condemnationon the name of Judas for his act of be- trayal. Yet these men will go right into the world of business and politics and 'commit the same offence. e It is a common experiéhce that men condemn in others what they will pgomptly practice when oc- casi'on offers. THIRTY PIECES The City clerk of Highland Park has long filled his office with un- usual acceptability. Some citizens, years ago thought a change, de- Sirable - and sd voted. Twelve months had not rolled around be- fore the mistakewasdiscoveredand we hastened to undo it. When ever any citizen wants information about matters pertaining to city affairs, he has but to go to the city oflice, or even use the telephone and our accomedatiug and affable city official is generally found able to give the desired infOrmation promptly. we do' not mean to reflect on any other candidate who‘ may be in‘the field; it is simply a‘ question of- the relative value of a public servant to the public. de-' manding quick eflicient service. Others may be naturally just as capable but it) would take years to acquire the {familiarity with the affairs of State matters which Mr; Rose now has. and achange would cost the general public no little in- convenience. V He was the oné candidate ac- copied byallbarties If the scl- ect men’ or any private Citizen wished to know anything about the past records of the town,_ it ‘was‘only nécessary to to call on William Rolf and the information sought would be forthcoming. James A. Rose. our present secré- tary of State, has for the,s.ime roas‘on filled the office for many years ' native place hclfl .lhc oflicc {or over forty years. The election u‘vas‘annunl.

OF SILVER SATURDAY, APRIL 17, 1909 How many of the mbdem eorpgreesmen are as careful and conscientious to‘avoid even the appearance qt evil? Where there is one such legnhmr today. iit legislative halts, be [car there are many who take just utempposite course. ’CONSCIBNCB AND POUT]CS It [In been s_aid that John Quincy Adams sold his stock! and bonds of every kind that mightbe affected by legislation before he entered Congreis. ‘ } Press rcwrts of tlie'trial of the Sugar ’Trust. ended yesterday by a jury verdict jof guilty, hardly have brought out the shocking nature at the charge, and 01 the evidence to support it. It was a case ol plain stealing of the most contemptibie kind. False weights were systematically used in order to defraud the Government. so tlie~jury found. and their verdict of guilty also included the finding that this habitual cheating could not have been carried on without the knowledge oi the ofl‘icers of the corporation. This makes up about the most damning case against a rich company that we have had. Here was not mere question of rebating. or secret trade agreements. but .just pilter- ing. day after day. The [at hand of the Sugar Trust was filching daily from the Treasury till. For depravity and sneak- ing meanness, this would be hard to' beat. ,1 A list Of these documents and copies of thcm up :0 the point of the edition printed may bé had by addressing‘lhe Secretary of the American Association of International Concilation.

' For the purpose of arousing ol the American people i.) the progress of the movement (or promoting international ipeace and relations of comity and good- iellowship between nations, the Executive Committee. of the Association have already and are circulating sixteen. different documents giving information as to the progresl of these movements. in order that individual citizens. the nhl' paper press, and organizations of various kinds may have already available and accurate inlomtation on these subjects.

Let us hdvc ‘a new Higf-Iwood and let all voters help to\ bring it out. " Highwood has taken a decided step upward in recent actions and the public are. begining to look forward to a complete deliverance from the lawlesspess of the past. V But there is a very clear 'and and defini‘at’c‘ issue in that city which ought to' beere'garded by all the voters. The real question ‘is the moral future of the city. All its material aed commercial growth depends upon its moral character. Let the voters of Highwood carefully scr’uitnise the tickets which Eire published in this issue of the News Letter and vote for the men whose record and whose associations promises most for maintaining- the law. ‘ The News Lettcr'docs not pre- ‘sumc to name the choice of in- dividual candidatcs for Highwood citizens. .
