A question has been raised as to
whether Wood row Wilson should re-
sign as governor of New Jersey white
he is being eiec-ted president M this

If he 'O'dd go on managing the affairs

iij TYiLr.Z A DEAD LINE?
The other day a successful editor re-
marked that the average man over Jo
'i.'u ut-ii.. to the advancement of the
world too old to do things too con-
cervative to dare. Youth mu.-it have
'h -ay and it was the part of wisdom
to trwnt youth's vigor rather than ma-
turity's counsel says the Wichita Ilea-
i on.
There ig rnu'-h to be said on both
fides of the question. One may re-
mark that Alexander coniuer;;d the
world before he was f;0 but Napoleon
was beaten by a man past 10 and Jack-
fco.'i was 4". at the battle of N- v Or
leans. . .The fortunes of the southern'
arms were entrusted to ltobert K. U-o
ag ft and certainly no one will claim
that any commander could have done
better while the northern armies fail
ed aga'-n and again until Grant who
had turned 10 Mi.o t . a d lie .v. a'.- of
J..an of Arc died at 10 having done
her work but. Mrs. Kd.ly was a failure
at and afterwards founded a world's
I'.'Hriim. If ft.'.!!f.rln ilii.it t nn .1!

I.incohi as near .o at the time of
the d.bates with Douglas w hit-h can
nlmoht be ftaiti to have begun his ca

of saying that a man is apt to build

Michelangelo turned his attention to
engineering at r."j in order to fortify
Florence and at ' took up a new
branch of art successfully.
Tom Johnson though a phenome-
nally successful man at in did his
ureat work and foueht bis great fight
after that age forsaking his early am
bilious and ideas And now comes
Wood row Wilson ."(; whose entry into
the husky fighting demanded by r3-
form politics is within the memory of
our primary school children.
Of course in a certain way the
s'atement of the successful editor
quoted above Is true. The "average
man" of 40 Is incapable of doing big
pr.d new things but so is the "average
man" of 20. The moral is don't be an
average man! I!ut to the man who is
capable and willing gifted with ordin-
ary horse sense and man grit he need
not settle back because he is 10. As
a matter of fact he iB just getting
able to do things.
COMMUNITY JUDGES.
Kvcry community has its judges and
they are self-appointed. Their 'enure
is optional with themselves and they
are not subject to recall.
We speak of those who ansu.Tie the
prerogative of passing upon the char
acter the virtues or the shortcomings
of their fellows.
Few if any of us get our just de
serts In this life. In nearly every in
stance it is a case of over-praise or
over-censure. Passion bias prejudice

I like danger and storm and strife
You like a peaceful time;

Judge J. D. Vance has seen tne
"itlory of the Ixird" and is happy. He
wrote a congratulatory letter to tillly

The street in front of the old post
office appears to be supplanting the

saving the country with coYivorsution.
