8AT0TARD ON ROOSEVELT-
one Political "Decency "
Bverythang is fish that goes into
Roosevelt net, and that is a
Strange kettle of fish Kansas baa
cooked and s erred the names of
the Roosevelt electors on he Taft
. Aieket- Roosevelt eays he is no
leaser a Republican, that) the Re
publican party ia hopelessly depraved;
that it ia in the hands of thjieves
and knaves, and yet his henchmen
la Kansas are ordered to adopt its
auw, wear it uniform and fight
nder its flag. There may be law
Ssr that sort of thing, but it is not
decent. There may be politics for
It, bt Lt is not moral. It ia theft
I a name, discredited name, it ia
true, but a set of mne who claim
' their mission 1b to arouse the peo-
pie M lne Dinaing iorce or 'no
eoaamandment, Thou shalt not steal
Sir Munsey's newspaper, the
wasringion 1 lines, excuses lue iar
ceny on the plea that "Tafti ia( not
the real! name of the Republican
party," and therefore his electors
are not entitled to the benefit of
. the name "Rpeublican" in; Kansas
Is Roosevelt the "real nominee"
ot the Republican party? He says
he is not- Then where did he get
the r'ght to run for President as
a Republican in Klansas? If Taft
the U'ulr nominee, is denied the use
of the party Dame,, by what sort
of reasoning can it be mrde to ap
pear that Roosevelt is entitled to
the party name, when, in, terms of
letter opprobrium, he denounces the
party as everyhing thatt is low, vile
a ad base in politics? Yet he stoops
to seek the votes of Kansas as a Republican-
And you will observe that
tue second word In this man's plat
form is "conscience-" Tom Corwin,
of Ohio, said it would be an awful
and a tedious task to keep the con
science of old Joe Underwood, a
"Conscience Whig" of the era of
the Wilmot proviso; and lit will take
a regiment of Pittsburg Bill Flinns
to keep Teddy's conscience on
straight till after this campaign is
over, if Kansas is a sample-
The first time the country ever
heard of Roosevelt was when, he
was a member of the New York leg
islate re at the time Grove(r Cleve
land was governor. The young
man was a reformer even at that
callow age and very vigilaant a;nd
active. . He succeeded in passing a
batch of bills all looking tt the
the big meropolis. When the leg
islature adjourned those measures
were before the governor for his approval-
..Dan Lament used to tell a pros
perous anecdote about it that was
smething like this: Roosevelt heard
that Cleveland intended to veto his
Mils and rushed to Albany to protest,
Berating (Into the private office of
te governor, like a tornado in
search of room,' he exclaimed :
"Mr- Cleveland, I hear that you
are going to kill my bills you can
Bt do it, you cannot do it, sir-" '
Mr- Cleveland, cold, calm, sedate,
deliberately answered:
"Mr. Roosevelt, the idea of yclir
tteasurea is excellent and ought to
be incorporated in the law; but the
Mild are so slovenly drawn, so vague
and uncertain as to what they real
ly import, that it would result in
long, expensive, vexatious and de
moralizing litigation that would
work ten-fold more injury than the
Teform would do good-"
Jumping up and down, . chagrin,
and rage flashing his face, Teddy
oared: .
xou shan t veto them, governor,
e shan't veto them-' .
Cleveland, now thoroughly arouse
aad angry, brought Ms fist down on
ae table and yelled: ,, 1
IH be d d if I don't veto them.
Teddy, much crestfallen, retired,

with him- He sought the nomina

to good food even to think of serving

My guests came a trifle late-by

I was ready to take them in the
kitchen. Thla because of a shrewd
suspicion that they thought I had
been telling fairy tales they could
not conceive of real food, coming real

My people sniffed gratefully as they

without a trace of scorch. The diners
vowed they had a new, a singularly
fine flavor, somewhat approaching
that of a roaBted chestnut. They
praised the fish and ate in a way
to show it deserved the praise. Still,
I think they wondered a bit was this
one bagful all they were to get by t u
way of reward Tor coming all tne way
to Harlem? They had not noted that
the .stove , was still in commission
possibly through seeing neither pot
nor pan on top of it.

anybody ever made better dumplings,
it was never my luck to eat thereof.
Black coffee, fruit and cigars for

read an evening paper, and even loaf

county is by the quajil. ;.-
Guilford is now settled with hunt

the upper class, who are not only
most liberal in the leasing of hunt

ketable goods from the farmers on
whose land they hunt, hut also be

schools and churches with their sup-
Of a case that comes to my mind,
fur instance, a year or so ago a
field trial party took lunch near a
school house close to my house,
just before Christmas- It' was sug
gested that the school children take
around the, hat after lunch for) a
Christmas' tree- They dUd. to the
tune of forty dollars. ,
