Lieut.. Col. Roosevelt at the time of
the preparation for the Porto Rico
expedition, says the Boston PosA
brought upon himself the written
censure of the war department for
his presumption in making deroga-
tory comparisons in a letter to the
secretary of war between other vol
unteer regiments and his own corps
of rough riders. In a sharp letter
the secretary pointed out the imprO-
priety of a volunteer lieutenant col
onel recommending the Advancement
of his particular command by de-
tracing from the merits of other
volunteers. Doubtless in attending
to Gen. Miles indiscretion the presi-
dent recalled some of the experiences
of Lieut.. Col. Roosevelt.

he stated that he was only an invited
guest at the meeting of the teachers,
and went far enough to say that he
had been careful to guard against
Saying anything that might be taken
by the public to be an endeavor ON
mis- part to advance hiIhself or his
administration politically.
Such followers as Gov. Yates re-
tains openly declared that Judge
Sherman's address was an open at
tack on the state administration, and
these declarations have brought a re-
Spouse from Mr.. Sherman. On the
whole, what was anticipated when
the two republican leaders appeared
on the same platform has happened.
A controversy has been brought
about, and counter statements and
explanations will continue for the
next few days.

The anti-Schley conspiratOrs in
stead of detracting from Schley's
fame and his record for Bravery arc
adding to his laurels. From every
side come those eager to testify in
Schley's behalf, and not least import
ant of these witnesses is Amos Bon
sol, of Omaha, the only survivor of
the Kane expedition in 1885. He
declares that no man ''who has the
courage to enter the Arctic pack as
Schley did and rescue Gen. Greeley
can ever be charged with being a
coward" Schley has always been a
brave man and his life is long series
of manly accomplishments and heroic
deeds

PLAYING Very Good Politics.

The selection by President Ronse-
welt of Gov. Shaw of Iowa for the
cabinet "ffIcc of secretary of the
treasury shodIl help to convince the
presidents antagonists in his own
party that he is capable of playing
very good politics in the line of
strengthening his personal position.
In view of the swiftly increasing inn
portance of the middle west and the
general recognition of his own abili-
ties, Gov. Shaw promise to be
strong candidate for the republi-
can nomination to the presidency in
the next national convention of that
party He can now, the belief is pre-
valent, be counted on to lay aside
that ambition and throw his strength
to Mr.. Roosevelt. in addition to this
valuable support, Mr.. Roosevelt has
also made friends and supporters of
Senators Allison and Dolliver of Iowa,
who most vigorously urs1 the name
of Gov. Shaw for tn. secretaryship
of the treasury. He may. indeed,
have removed from his path another
rival for the 1904 nomination. Sena-
tor Dolliver aspiring very strcn"usly
to reach the highest office in the gift
of the people. AS matters INV stand,
both senators from Iowa are expect
ed to loyalty support Mr.. Roosevelt in
the next republican national conven-
ton. All of which goes to show that
the president is an extremely capable
politician along practic.l lines.
Shrewd plotters, such as Senators
Hanna and Platt, enemies of Roose-
welt within the republican organiza-
ton, will find that they are a..rayed
against a man who can give them
all the fighting they want, and prob
ably a great deal more than they
will relish. he presidents opening
plays have been strong and charac-
teristic.

At the Turn ofthe Tide


Old Year, let us laugh as the goblet
we quaff.
In the cheer of the wines bright
fiowingl
And here by thy side, at the turn of
the tide,
I'll troll thee a song of Eternity wide,
Where ships of the Soul at their an
chorage ride.
Secure from the storms that are
blowing.
o oft in the strife and the folly of
Life,
Song swells from heart that is
aching!
So up from the Calm there has stolen
a charm
That lures us away to the realms of
the Palm,
And nymphs of the isle have distilled
us a balm
To soften the pain of the waking.
The song with a tear now is blended,
Old Year,
And white are the mists of the
morning!
The heart that was bold heth silent
and cold,
As thy form to my bosom tenderly
fold;
Thou sleepest for aye and the Bell it
is tolled,
At the turn of the tide in the
dawning.

The January issue of Keith's Maya
zine, devoted to the interests of home
builders, contains some unusually at
tractive features, opening with a well
illustrated article describing some
recently built homes. Each house is
described as to the manner of its in
terror finish, color scheme and APP
proximate cost. Five houses are de-
scribed. The first paper on Some
Real Experiences tells how a mod
ern eight-room house was decorated
for seventy-five dollars. In addition
to full descriptions of ten modern
homes, is shown a small church, very
artistic in design, which is estimated
to cost about thirty-five hundred dol
lars. The usual departments are in
full. covering Decoration and Fur
nishing," Household Economics, -

publishes tonight a reviewo the build
ing improvements of the year.
1t is gratifying 40 note that
during the year that is passing Rock
Island has kept pace with the record
of preceding years, the improvements
in this respect aggregating a million
and half, showing similar to that
of the preceding twelve months.
1t is doubtful if any city the size
of Rock Island has given such an adj
mirable account of itself in the open
ing year of the new century. And
there are few cities that view the
coming year with higher or more
well founded anticipation.

Two Groups of Men.

manner:
Exhibit One) Exhibit Two
BENHAM DEWEY
RAMSAY SCHLEY
MACLAY MILES
Or to carry the comparison to n
still further climax for the benefit of
those who are inclined to forget the
merits of men for the offices they
hold, why not put the names in
groups thus:
Exhibit One) exhibit Two)
ROOSEVELT DEWEY

BENHAM MILES
1t has been very manifest in the
hearing of the Sampson-Schley con-
troversy and the verdicts and decis-
ions that came subsequently that
these principals have been grouping
Themselves as above. Arguments in
the case are unnecessary since the
court has held its sessions and hand
ed down its findings. The people
are inclined to view the naval muddle
in the above light, and the stars
which outshine all others are the
three which form n brilliant constel-
lation that no power can dim are:
