has been thrown and a tight between
the town trustees of San Mateo and

STRAODLER OF NO USE
The man who "straddles the fence",
on every,, political issue and awaits the
opportunity to Jump to the* winning
side merits the contempt he invariably
receives. He may flatter . himself that
he "won out," but he fools nobody else.
The man who has positive opinions arid
who is ready to take sides in, a fight
and let his position be known, even
though he stands a chance of losing, is
the man who merits and secures re
spect. If the whole world were made
up of *.'s.traddlers" what sorry progress
would be accomplished In any human
undertaking. The "straddler" \u25a0- laclis

either case he is of little use In anac
