The rally of the Rough Riders
gave Roosevelt an opportunity to
get before the public with one OF
characteristic speeches. He stands
for the typical American soldier
brave in battle, yet merciful, val
lent and dangerous in war, yet
strong aud courageous in the arts
of peace. Ne are told that the
country is in danger of militarism.
II was a theme of general comment
and source of wonder among the
powe;s of Europe, after our great
civil war that the vast military
forces laid aside the arms OF war
and qnie,ly took up the peaceful
pursuits of life. The me char
acteristics are manifest in the typi-
cal soldier OF to day who has won
a comment of pride from his com
mander for taking up courage ously
the duties of peace, which are ever
present with intelligent citizenship.

forced the issue upon the canteen-

Those addicted to drink will get IL

before. There seems to be poin,

Know One Thing Well.

In recent address Chauncey
Dep,w struck the key note of one
of the vital needs of American edu-
cation. Senator Depew says: In
these days it is we'll to know much,
but II is imperative to know one
thing we'll" 1t is characteristic of
the American youth that 1t is apt
and quick to learn, but his alert
ness an ! versatility leads him to
the shoal of new danger, that Of
being jack Of all trades and master
of none.
Last weeks Puck contains
double-page cartoon illustrating
this phase of the situation. The
employer stands at the roadside as
the graduates from our schools and
colleges file past, displaying a sign:
Wanted Skilled labor, mechanics,
designers, carvers, electricians, ar
tisans and practical men. The
youth with the diploma is not fit
ted to fill the bill.
On the opposite page the same
employer stands at the gangway of
an ocean steamer and fills his needs
for skilled labor from among our
foreign immigrants. 1t has long
been source of comment by oh.
serving employment agencies that
the foreign applicant is man of
one trade or occupation. while the
American applicant will agree to
do most anything. There is screw
loose in the machinery of education
which will produce such results.
The American graduate, scorn-
ing skilled labor, rushes into the
over-crowded professions and often
in the end drops into the great
army of unskilled laborers, broken
and detected.
We need a return to the good old
system Of apprenticeship, through
which school the youth of the land
grows up into skilled orkmaps
This is the system in vogue in Ger
many, and this in league with the
technical schools will give stimu.
lus to skilled labor which will add
materially 10 the condition of the
American youth and relieve the
over'crowded professions.
Under the present system the
American boy changes his oceupa-
ton with every within, spending
one month in drug store, the next

The big bridge is done.
Lewiston has had a mighty
growth in four years. Three
years ago Vineland had a
population of one lonesome old
bachelor. Today Vineland
has about 1900 people, being
fully as many as Lewiston
had in 1895. Ninelanders are
making money in fruits and
vegetables, but more i'll the

lands. One man has cleared

stantly rising. Choice resi-

The voice Of This great political

slowly toward the democratic party
