WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 9,.1912.
Night Editor H. Beach Crpenter.,
MR. PEANUT POLITICS AGAIN.
That the painstaking labor of a
"cub" editorial writer should be char-
acterized as "the inspiration of an
overtrained mind," is an idea so dis-
tinCt'y humorous that we find it'diffi-
cult to write a serious 'answer to the
communicant who-objects to our un-
friendly attitude toward Mr. Peanut
Politics. 'But whatever may be the
unfit condition of our thinking 'appa-
ratus, we dislike to be "buttonholed"
by a sleek looking stranger who shak-
es our 'and cordially, asks after the
health of father and Aunt Hetty, and
presents us with a card which informs
us that he is a candidate "fo'te office
of Class Pipe-rack, and would appreci-
ate our support at the coming election.
Such things leave us with a bad taste
in our mouths. Why cannot all can
Spus offices attain 'to the dignity of that
of student councilman or Union pres-
ident, which offices are given to the
men who most deserve them, and with-
out any petty wirepulling or ward-
heeler's 'methods" on the part of the
candidates? If a man informed us that
he aspired to bie president of the Un-
ion, solicited our votes, and asked us
to work for him sub'rosa, there is no
doubt but that his chances of ever
being elected would lessen by at least
one vote with every man he approach-
ed. And yet we do not'seem to expe-
rience much difficulty in picking ex-
celent men for this office.
It is true that capable men do work
for success in politics. But an analy-
sis will show that they are forced to it
by the fact that such methods are
being resorted to by their opponents,
rather than' becalse of any liking for
it. We have Always'been able to find
practical, successful 'men w o have
been opposed to things 'of this sort.
The leaders in the Independent move-
ment in Toledo are showing that mu-
nicipal politics can be cleaned 'up by
letting -the offce 'seek' the man; we
find Adam Smith, who made some stir
in the poitical world himself, getting
rather excited about those who are
"vulgarly called politicians;" and the
said politicians 'were probably scorn-
ed by Anaximenes,, and, legislated
against by H-ammnurabi. But it Always
takes the world several centuries to
cut' itself loose from outworn tradi-
tions and come to an appreciation of'
the id'eas of its progressive, citizens.
Here in the university we attempt,
to keep a little ahead of the rest of the'
world. We h~ave a better field for re-
form in a matter of this sort than there
is in national politics, because the uni-
versity is not so large that a really
g~pable tn can lose hirn f i .
Surely the inert Owfathe mpus are dp-
he ineligen ,,fig e Qce
to be llled °w tbei ng poddd in-
to the proper d~rection by'some aspir-
ant who judges that with his name the
lat word has been said on the sub-
ject. "Why should we not make our
honors doubly honorable by letting
them come tas an incident to work in
the univesity which ai)akes ,,:ja

We :will .' hoot te candidate who
has the manliness to show by his at-
titude, in. th epcming elections tat, he .
standls fgr cleaner and higherdeals in
poltics, and what's ore, tither things
being equal, we intend t : ote ifor
him.,
In 'conclusion we point 4o the new
rulting. passed lst night' bythe Stu-
dent Council in prohibition of cam-
paign cards' amongthe pper classes,
as evidence of,, sympathy with. ths- the-
ory, and welcome it as a reform cap-
able of great good.
JANE ADDAM.
Jane Addars, of ull House, who has
been called the most noted wonan of
her time. will speak in this city 'to-
night. It is not 'within our province
to take sides for or against any polit-
ical or reform movement that may be
advocated by' Miss Addas; but 'we
welcome this opportunity of hearing
her. Here is a woman who has done
things, who is doing things-things
that count for the relief of the unfor-
tunate, for the betterment of soiety
in general.
At a time whaen women are claiming
high places in world activities, and in
great measure justifying''these claims,
she is recognized as "a leader who leads
by virtue of work done honestly,' qui-
etly, persistently, successfully. When
such a woman has something 'to say
upon a subject so vital and so 'immi-
nent as equal suffrage, that something
is likely to be worth hearing.
Experience is the thing that col-
lege students lack.' Miss Addams has
had wide experience of a most unusual
and practical sort; and'she now offers
to tell of that experience, 'what she
has learned from it, and how it has
shaped her opinions upon a question
now agitating all 'civilized countries.
Such a course must certainly prove
instructive- "and instruction is 'the
thring we see.
