There are a great many people who do remarkable things in one direction, vet seem to do incom plete, or totally unfinished in others. At a distance, thev shine like geniuses, but on closer acquain tanco we discover some eonspic uous lack, some striking defect which mars their personalities and their careers. People of this kind are often look ed up to as superior beings, or en vied as geniuses by average men and women.

Yet is it not. on the whole, infinitely better to have a complete, well-rounded character, even if not brilliant or striking in any particular, than to havo over-towering ability in one line and not average well? The average boy gifted with good common simse, with a willingness to work, with an ambition to be sotnobody in the world and a determination to make the most of his opportunities, even though he shows no glint of brilliancy, every thing considered, will win much more satisfactory and enduring success than many a so-called genius.

A Solar Piexls Blow to Socialism. Judge Lynch on Saturday gave the Socialist party tho most stunning blow it has yet received in this community or in tho state.

The Socialists claimed recognition for their ticket on the official ballot.and the objections having been filed, Judgo Lynch demanded a copy of the Socialistic constitution that he might examine what the party is to based upon. Having examined it the judge decided that the constitution of the Socialist party is not in accord with the spirit of our govern ment. This looks like a radical decision, but it will undoubtedly be commended by a very largo majority of tho people of the couuty, state and nation. The right of any number of citizens to combine for the purpose of organizing a political party cannot bo questioned or denied, provided tho object of such organization is lawful. Ji.vcry bo cialist has a right to go to the bal lot box and cast a ballot for Social ists, or anybody else, for all tho nffiocs to be filled.

This right is not in the slightest degree impaired by the decision of Judge Lynch His decision as to the character of the constitution of the Socialist party will have a good moral effect. It may open the eyes of some men who are being misled by designing po litical ncritators who make a busi ness of organizing men for purposes that are little short of anarchism and incipient revolution. Judge Lynch is winning new laurels these days by his resolute action on the bench. The more power to him. I ft Senator Wulfekubler is championing a bill making it a misdemeanor for anyone to hire a boy or girl and pay them wages.
