NOT A CANDIDATE.
Governor Roosevelt Has No Desire to
be Vice President.

Albany. n. Y, Feb. l2.-Governog
Roosevelt today gave out a statement
relative to the vice presidency, in
which he declares that he will not ac-
cept the honor under any circumstan-
ces. His statement follows:
'ln view of the continued statement
in the press that | may be urged as a
candidate for vice president. and in
view of the many letters that reach me
advising for and against such a course,
1t is proper for me to state definitely
that under no circumstances could 7,
or would |. accept the nomination for
the vice presidency. 1t is needless to
say how deeply | appreciate the honor
conferred upon me by the mere desire
sition. But it seems to me clear that
at the present time my duty Is here
in the state whose people chose me to
be governor. Great problems have
been faced and are being partly solved
in this state at this time. and if people
50 desire. | hope that the work thus
begun l may help carry to Il successful
conclusion"
The governor, in giving out his state
ment, said:
And | am happy to state that Sena-
tor Plat cordially acquiesces in my
view in the natter

BAD MEMORY OF WITNESS.
Brings Down Upon Him a Sharp Re-
Duke From Senator Chandler.

Washington, Feb. 12.-David r. Peel
er, president Of the First National bank
at kalispel, Mont, was the first wit
ness in the Clark case today. Before
Mr.. Peeler began Senator Chandler
again brought up the question of the
W hereabouts of the Swede," Murphy,
who is wanted as a witness. The sem
ator said that the nan had been acre
once, but had disappeared, and that he
hoped that the newspapers would con-
tinue their efforts to locate the where
abouts of E. P. Woods and D.. G.. War
ner. He desired, he said, to have them
all summoned. Mr.. Hartman said he
had been told that Mr.. Murphy had
returned to Butte, and that the other
two men were in California.
Mr.. Peeler was questioned concern
ing the account of State Senator Geig-
er with his bank, the First National
bank, but he was not able to throw
much light upon the subject. He con-
firmed Mr.. Geiger's statement that he
(Geiger) had borrowed $4,000 at the
bank, saying that Geiger had given
him a deed to property as security. The
witness was unable to give dates when
various loans had been made, and he
was taken sharply to task by Senator
Chandler for his failure in this respect.
He protested that he was not trying to
conceal anything, but that he was
simply unable to remember.

was missing he was suspected and the
sequel of the story was a heart-broken
wife and a criminal in the states pris-
on.
We Danish the professional gambler
from our best society and say we are
too pure for his association, but We arc
no better when as Christians we foster
in the midst of the young gambling in
s%tincts, which may make them crimi-
mails before they die.
When a man simply believes in luck
and no over-ruling Providence, what a
miserable life he must lead and what
an unhappy end he is destined for
When things happen not to come his
way, he blames everything under and
above the heavens except himself and
makes everybody around him miser-
able for the time. | always think of
James Whitcomb Riley's words, when
ill-starred gamesters find fault with
the world and its ruler:
THE sign is bad when folks commence
A-fnding fault with Providence,
And baking case the earth don't
shake
At every prancing step they take.
No man is great till he can see
How less than little he would be
If stripped to self and stark and bare
H. I,n, IT. c;n, out ,,,ru,bnr,
My doctrine is to lay aside
Contention and be satisfied.
Just do your best, and praise or blame
That follows, that counts just the same.
I've allus noticed great success
Is mixed with trouble more or less
And it's the man who does the best
That gets more kicks than all the rest"
l know the favorite argument among
Christians who play cards, that their
children are safe from the gambling
habit because of the control and bring
ing up they have received at home,
| When you hear such people talk you
wonder why they doin't study life and
see from what class of people all the
gamblers, d%runkards and fallen mes
of life come. No class is exempt. The
devil enters the rich home as well as
the poor; he tempts the cultured as
well as the ignorant, and no man know
eth his powers of resistance until he
has met the adversary face to face.
l remember the story of the preach
er who wanted Abraham Lincoln to
use his influence in getting the Public
hall in Springfield; Lincoln asked him
what he wanted and he said he wanted
to preach, as the Lord was coming"
Lincoln told him if the Lord knew
Springfield as well as he did he
wouldn't come within a thousand miles
of it.
l feel this way in regard to our own
city. We talk social purity, revival
meetings and saving the lost souls;
well what we want first of all is to
strengthen and purify the fortress be-
fore we go out to save the sinners.
Make Christians see that self-denial
is what is needed in their own lives, re-
frain from the very appearance Of evil,
deny themselves the pleasure of the
card tables for the sake of the weaker
brother and then we as christians can
consistently try to reform the world.
First make thy W life a literal fol-
lowing of Jesus the Christ and then
the world will respect your christianity
and listen more readily to your coun-
sci and advice.

The penalty for this breach of discipline
IS death. The Canadian private was sub
sequently ourt-martialed for looting. and
the British officers who composed the
court-martial sentenced him TO ffty-siX
days field imprisonment. This punish
ment included a species of crucifxion, the
victim being bound with outstretched arms
and legs to the wheel of a field gun car
yiage in the face OF the broiling South
African sun for two hours each day. The
agony suffered IS said to be intense and
almost unbearable at the outset, but after
undergoing the torture for some days it
becomes endurable.
The minister OF militia, in speaking to
the petition. did not deny or confirm the
published reports of the manner OF Pri-
vate Benefits punishment, and II was
shown that such a barbarous form of pun
ishment for breach of discipline is not
provided for In the regulations governing
the British army, and the government
was asked to give the house Official in
formation upon the subject. The report
OF Col Otter just received at militia
headquarters, in referring TO this case,
merely states as follows: THE orders on
the subject of looting were most strin-
gent and definite, and while no doubt the
provocation was great considering the
lack of food for the previous three weeks,
yet, owing 10 the constant warnings that
the men had received, the offense cannot,
from military point of view, be pall-
ated.
