In an interview at Boulder. Colo.
the other day, Secretary Lyman J.
Gage of the treasury department said:
Next to Mr.. Mckinley, | know of
no man whom | would rather see pres.
ident than Mr.. Roosevelt. He is a man
of broad ideas and of much experience.
He has had more experience for his
age than any man | know. He is young
and full of push. but he is level headed
and conservative He has been in poll
tics enough TO know its ms and outs"
Rather determined in his ideas?"
Well, not so broad as that. He is
firm, but not obstinate. He would not
bring his head uselessly against a
stone wall, nor try to buck a train of
cars of the track. He is strong for
what he thinks is right, but is always
open for rea-on and argument. The
death Of Mckinley was a great shock
to us all, but Roosevelt is pursuing a

Mckenzie is an unedueated man. He
came to North Dakota as a section
hand on the Northern Pacific railroad,
when that road was being built from
St. Paul to the west coast. In this re-
spect he differed little in the start Of
life from James J. Hill, now one of the
greatest railroad magnates in the
world. Mr. Hill began his career in the
northwest as a ''rOustabOut'' on one of
the Mississippi river steamers, when
St. Paul was the head of navigation on
this river

chosen here. Cleveland would finally re-
ceive the prize This alleged statement
Mr.. Cook quotes as evidence of the in
