The Man Across the Street isn't much of a political writer but he has some idea on things political. For instance: He he- lieves we need the new party because the trunks of the two leading old parties have grown rotten from old age and be. cause of the vast amount of grafting which has been done on them or under them; he believes that the new party grown to the age of the present old parties will also be rotten but he knows that at present it is young. fresh and clean. and during the length of time that it takes grafting politicans to absorb the Working machinery of a political partyit wilf accomplish much good. many good new laws on the books and by the grace of God and with a good eraserâ€"the will of the people - it will take many decayed and decrepit ones off True perhaps it is that in time the law jugglers of that day. say the year 1960. will have found ways operate as they darn please in spite of those laws but in that time will come another Abraham Lincoln. another Theo- dore Roosevelt, and then the super-pro- gressives will form a new party and once more there will be a general cleaning out. In that day there will be a lot of good men who will bewail the formation . of a new party and claim that the old= can be made to do the will of the people. as there are good men claiming thr- same thing now. but it will be no more possible _ then that it is now because the old party machinery will be owned and operated by the few; a few men will operate the national end. another group the state. another the congressional district, another the county. another the precinct. running for otiice will be gonged various chair men for campaign funds until they are forced to run to the bi: interests for help and :OOLl they will be owned in the big interests just as the iiiajmity arr o.vned now The only regret the Man Acr to.) the Street is t ‘ia: t‘ is n; i‘t ment did u )I get started in timq 1o pot A men by Hi complete count \ ticket in the tit-2d lt has. ho'mer nominated a sidit‘ i. mi and it has lll)fl‘.ln£l'.:‘d one man in t 1 c‘ district for the legislature.

If the cost of all the life preserVers mm in use were charged against the 33'.'ll‘g of eleven lives there would still be ample funds for the purchase of as many more. When funds are at hand for such equip. ment no boat as large as that one was should be allowed to go out without it. The members of The Young Men's Club life saving crew have a boat which holds twenty people. This boat has no life saving equipment and if called out in such a storm as that which struck the naval school boat they would find them- selves in the same danger. If they were called upon to save lives they would haxe no equipment with which to set about it in case they were unable to reach the persons in danger. The cost of this equipment would be small and (l tund should be raised for its purchzne The cuumll migT": p1» and Attempt to enforce :m «)K'dlndnfn‘ Cnmpclimg lhv Nonfiwestcm in mm 21> truxn‘ir. 511(1’111 manner that L‘z-mzxu Axcnuv Mm nqt be blnckedA Thr rin- dcp'u’. “ not bc bllx‘kud uguzn m a you and 1! might be biuc'ned tomwrrmx ‘zr‘. mvn- property lost in consequence in any event the mesa: Ireihod is a Yh'mllt‘SS nuisance. tr". might The “ ther" dinner at the club was a gay successful affair and two hundred o the men members were present.
