WHAT SAID THE WINof

llIer thought ZI
The wind Is waving all the trees; -
They whisper IN the sun,
And ever through the sweet, warm grss
The hayward shadows run.
oh. turn you here or turn you there,
The thought will not away
That love comes as the wind comes IS,
And none may say II nay. 81
Ills thought q
The wind Is scattering the leaves. -
The clouds rush up the sky,
The vagrant snowflakes find no rest
But whirl and toss and fly,
And still thought wanders with the wind,
Returning but to say.
'0h, love goes as the wind blows,
And none may bid 1t stayr'

The recent denial Of the story that
President ROOSEVELT had nat
hs would not be "A candidate at the next
election was unnecessary Tor the reason
that the story could not have kept the
spark Of life in IL beyond the day OF W.
birth. IL was contrary To the common
sens- Of past and present.
RoosKyFLT will in the nature oil thltS-
no n candidate for election Ia IN" Once
NJ President, unless his Administrator
proves TO be a failure 80 inordinate a.
10 forbid support. Being healthy IN
ambitions IA in mind n body ne
must desire that the people shouIo
.l.ct him TO the great office in which he
has been placed by assassination and IN
this be will be backed by a peculiarly
favorable political situation.
In the first place II ROOSEVELT should
m, be chosen by the Republican Ma
tional Convention. no rival New Yorker
could hone for success. To repudiate the
President for tho benefit Of a fellow
citizen Of the same State would he TOO
violent a shock to tine traditions oi polltl-
cal order TO be seriously considered. The
candidate will be ROOSEVELT or some one
from some other state than New York.
President ARTHUR was Ieaten Tor
denomination because at that time n
New York Republican party was spit
right through tho middle by the most
b,,,er enmitv Of the Stalwart and Half
Breed factions. and outside Of New York
WAS the towering personality OF BLAINE
,,pon whom for years Republican senti-
ment had been concentrating. To-day
there are no factions in the Republican
marty Of New York; and there Is no
blaine. When MCKINLEY was last
nominated. unless We consider the NUT
terings for ROOSEVELT himself, the list
OF candidates which the public is accus-
toned to keep in it, mind had faded
20 nothing. There were no candidates
standing.
With this great advantage in the State
he halls from and with the prestige Of the
Presidential Office behind ROOSEVELT the
outside competitor against him IN the Re
nnblican National Convention OF 1894 will
have 20 be Of phenomenal strength To beat
him. There being now no sign OF such
N statesman, the conclusion for the day
must he that only ROOSEVELT can defeat
himself. And this being 40 what Amer
can does no, hope for the President a man
ugement Of national Affairs so happy Ia a
defeat will o even be dreamed OF?
