gone, and their records are more or less
prosaic, but the history Of Theodore
Roosevelt stands out again pictures que,
dramatic and alive with the intensity
of the mans nature, an intensity which
differentiates him at every step Of his
career from his predecessors or success
sors. As police commissioner Mr.. Roose-
velt made New York seethe with ex
scitement. Disguised, he visited at night
the various precincts, seeing for him
self and testing the probity and capa-
bility Of his corps. BY day he fought
the other police commissioners, he up-S
set old time rules and enforced old time
81 ablue laws because, as he explained,
they were in the statute books and
must be obeyed until they were re-
pealed.
The sixth phase OF Mr.. Roosevelt's
career was brief but most satisfactory,
and was embraced in the short time of
his service as assistant secretary Of the
navy. Colonel Roosevelt was nominat-
ed by President Nc Kinley on April 81
1897. On April IL he rendered his resig-
nation as police commissioners to Mayor
Strong of New FORK city.
From the, very first Roosevelt fore
saw the possibility of a conflict with;
Spain, and he set about preparing his
department for it. He pushed repairs
on the ships, he worked with might
and main for the navy personnel bill
and visited the various naval reserves
throughout the country. He left moth
ing undone, in fact, that would secure
the highest efficiency in the service
when the time for action came. 1t is.
an open secret that he it was who first
realized the tremendous opportunity
that the war would open in the east
and who had Dewey, in whom he rec

appointed to command the eastern
squadron. And naval officers gree

Joseph and James B. Oliver the great

put up 100000 in cash to complete the

Seibcrling can make plate glass 10
cents square foot cheaper than any
other place under the shining sun. He
is outside of the trust, and he can
laugh all their Vaccinations to scorn
He understands the plate glass bust
ness from one end to the other, and
he is not to be frightened or deferred
from his purpose. In fact, he is the
best manufacturer in the United States
today. He is now making in his fac
tory in this city buggy, the body of
which is pressed steel and the wheels
made like those of bicycle with rub

We rejoice in Seiberling's good luck
because It comes as reward of per-
severence, industry and all the other
virtues. We said that he would ac-
complish all his plans, and now he
sees daylight at last. A cheerful,
solid-headed, confident, hopeful old
saint is Monroe, and as he goes swing,
ing down the grooves of change, we
throw our shoes after him in token of
good luck.

Promise of Canton
Akron Railway Co.
Endeavorins to Make
Arrangements
To Enter Akron on N. 0. T.
Tracks-The Route.

Captain Aaron Wagner, one Of the
incorporators of the Canton-Akron
Railway Co., stated to a reporter FOR
the Democrat Monday evening that ne
believed the line would be completed
by fall.
The full amount of required capital
has been subscribed. Work toward
building the line will begin at once.
If the company can develop successful
ly plans now contemplated, it will
make arrangements with the n. o. T.
Co., for entering this city. 1t is not
yet known whether such arrangements
can be made with the n. o. Il. Co.
Granting they may, the Canton-Akron
line will begin at the terminus of the
n. o. 7. line on East Market ST., and
continue eastward past the White
grocery, then to Springfield lake and
continuing on the highway to Canton,
running through Uniontown, Green
town, and New Berlin. In case these

waiting room.
The company has secured consents
for right of way to build a line in this
city, and il the first mentioned plan
fails, an application for franchise
will be made to the local Council. This
line would start from near the post
Office on South High St, and continue
south on this street to the limits of
the city, and then connect with the
route indicated In the other plan.
Officials of the N. o. T. Co. refused 10
discuss for publication the prospects
for the new company's succeeding in
making arrangements to connect with
the n. o. Il. line in this city.
A meeting of the stockholders of the
new company will be held soon to elect
officers. 1t is expected that cars will
leave the two cities, at least once every
hour.

"YOUR UNCLE"
Monroe SeiberIing Cannot be Kept Down..
Kind Words From Peoria, ILL.,, For Him.

1t was recently announced in the
Democrat that Mr.. Monroe Seiberling,
formerly of this city, had succeeded
in interesting a number of wealthy
men in his new plate glass works at
Ottawa, Ill.
In commenting on this PEORIA ILL.,,
paper has the following to say in
reference to Mr. Seiberling:
We have often remarked, and we de-
sire on this occasion to solemnly reit-
crate the fact, that you can't keep a
good man down. The occasion for
this remark now and at this time is the
fact that your Uncle Monroe Seiber-
ling has completed the arrangements
for his plate glass factory at Ottawa,
in this state.
About year ago Sciberling went to
Ottawa, passed the hat, took up II col
lection and with the proceeds started
plate glass industry capable of
making 100000 feet year. This is
about third of the consumption, and
the plate glass trust elevated their
noses in the air and bet that he
couldn't make it win. But Monroe is
one of these cheerful persevering souls
who keeps pegging away, and no
sooner gets out Of one corner until he
gets in another. He invested all his
own money in Ottawa, all that the
people had and all he could borrow
and then he industriously sought for

Purchaser.

Akron people enjoy gardenng-at
least they buy a great many vegetable
and flower seeds. Year after year,
dealers say, the sales of seeds increase.
There are two reasons for this-the in
creasing population of the city and the
growth of the market gardens nearby.
Although there are many fine resi-
denccs whose owners have no gardens,
there are others in which they are con-
sidered indispensable. In the suburbs
gardening is decidedly practical part
of every spring and summers work.
