We have a a sign that Senators and Representa tives are getting farther and farther away from the plain people, and los ing their democratic simplicity. If anybody thinks that President is going to play politics for politics' sake they have another "think" coming. President Taft does not know politics and he frankly says so on every occasion possible. He pro poses to leave to the American peo ple whether he shall or shall not be re-elected, basing his futuie upon the achievements of his administra tion.

The fine arts exhibition of the sea son here in Boston opened yesterday morning in the Art Club galleries, in the shape of a collection of works suitable for school d ecoration. The object is an important one, and the collection admirably illustrates the purpose. The sbbjects are well chosen, and indicate how rich a va riety of material is available. The landscape photographs of American scenery ar? pr.rticuiu.ly good, and the views of Moorish architecture are the most beautiful ever shown here. Boston Sunday Herald. j The exhibition of art photographs! which opened in City Hall this morn- j ing represents the finest thing in this line which has ever visited Springfield, and merits a good at tendance. Springfield Union. Without a doubt one of the finest art exhibitions ever presented in this country is that to be given in the art gallery of the Rhode Island school of Design during the coming week. An opening reception was given last evening, to which all persons holding season tickets were admitted, and very many people throughout the city who are especially interested in art took advantage of the opportun ity to enjoy a quiet inspection of this admirable exhibition. Those who visited the gallery last evening were struck with the beauty and artistic merit of the scene pre sented. All the pictures are reproduced directly from orignals by the most scientific and modern methods of re production. They are all illustrative of objects of world-wide interest and of great educational value, and especially suitable for schoolroom decoration. Providence Sunday Telegram. Genuine artistic merit is the qual ity for which the pictures have been chosen, their value as an aid to gen eral school work, although great in some cases, being a minor considera- ! tion. Old masters as well as modern artists are represented. New York Post. The collection of photographs and photogravures of famous paintings now on exhibition in the High School is considered the finest ever present ed in St. Louis. St. Louis Post Dispatch. There is history, poetry, nature, religion, and all that is lovely in life represented by the masters of old and modern times. All pictures of suffering have been excluded, even though it meant the rejection of Ruben's mssterpieee, the "Descent from the Cross."- Detroit Journal. It is probably the be-it collection of its kind ever shown in Dayton. The selection is admirable, embody ing a wide range of artist and the various schools, up.uy Evening Herald. The Educational Assocla'ion of Newark, which has entered with great zeal into the work of helping along public education, has on exhi bition in Wissner Hall a largo col lection of pictures eminently suitable for schoolroom furnishing, an-! our citizens could not make a better Christmas present than a donation i of some of these pictures to public j schools.
