ROOSEvELT'S ADDRESS.

Washington, March An his inaugural address Vice President Roosevelt said:
 "The history of free government Is in large part the history of those represen- tative legislative bodies in which from the earliest times free government has found its loftiest expectation. They must ever hold a peculiar and exalted position in the record which tells how the great nations of the world have endeav- ored to achieve and preserve orderly free dom. No man can render to his fellows greater service than Is rendered by him who, with fearlessnesse and honesty, with sanity and disinteresterness does his life work as a member of such body
 Especially Is this the case when the leg isature in which the services is rendered is a vital part in the governmental ma chinery of one of those world powers to whose hands, in the course of the ages. is enti usted a leading part In shaping the destinies of mankind. For veal or for woe, for good or for evil. this is true of our own mighty nation. Great priv ileges and great powers are ours and heavy are the responsibilities that so with these privileges and these powers.
 Accordingly as we do well or Ill, so shall mankind in the futrue be raised or cast down. We belong to young nation. already of giant strength, yet whose present strength is but forecast of tine power that is to come. We stand supreme in continent, in a hemisphere. East and west we look across two great oceans to- ward the larger world life. in which. whether we will or not. we must take an ever-increasing share. And, as keen eyed we gaze into the coming years. duties, new and old. rise thick and fast to confront us from within and without
 There is every reason why we should face these duties with a sober apprecia-

improvements at eessemer.

From the Bessemer Workman.
 Bessemer has improved wonderfully the past year. The curbing and grading of the streets, the building of sidewalks and the erection of so many business houses and residences has not been without its effect on the appearance of the city. We who live here and to whom the improve ment has come gradually scarcely realize its extent. but people who have been away for the past twelve months express surprise and pleasure at the change. Our streets for time were veritable traps for the unwary and our sidewalks pitfalls for all who were not booted and spurred, you might say, for the contest. But now all this is changed. We have put on rnetroDolitan airs.

THE RUNAWAY GIRL IS
 WELL KNOWN AT BESSEMER

Besemer March 4.-(Special.) )-Mabel Grove, the young girl who was arrested in Florence yesterday at the request of Mrs. J. Lambie, her aunt, Is well known here She Is but 15 years of age and has been here for four or five years. She Is an orphan and came to Bessemer from Scranton, Penn. where she has several brothers. She has ben living with MT. and Mrs. Lambie at the corner of Twen- ty-flrst street and First avenue. Miss Grove is blonde and quite pretty. She is unusually bright and as far as the general public knows has conducted her self in ladylike manner.
 When questioned by Age-Herald re- porter, Mrs. Lambie made the following statement:
 She retired about o'clock Wednesday night but was awakened at about 10:30 by her little son, who told her that Mabel's door was open. It seems the the young girl was in the habit of lock ing her bedroom door every night. Mrs. Lambie summoned her husband, who be- gan search for her, discovering that she had left Bessemer on the 9:30 dummy.
 It was not until the next morning that the discovery was made through the l.. and N. agent. that pass from Birming- ham to Decatur had come for her We'd nesday morning from a member of the Carnival Company, which recently showed here during the street fair. Sev- erar of these people boarded with the Lambies, and 1t is supposed that she left with the intention of joining them. Mrs. Lambie states that the family were very fond of the girl, who called her mother. w. c. Lambie, son of MT and Mrs Lam bic, left last night for Florence with the intention of bringing her back here. They are expected back tomorrow.

tion alike of their importance and of their difficulty. But there is also every reason for facing them with high hearted resolution and eager and confident faith in our capacity to do them alright.
 "A great work lies ready to the hand of this generation; 1t should count itself happy indeed that to 1t Is given the privi- lege of doing such work. leading part therein must be taken by this, the august and powerful legislative body over which l have been called to preside. Most deeply do l appreciate the privilege of my position; for high indeed Is the honor of presiding over the merican Senate at the outset of the twentieth century"

which the law refers. There were a few counties excepted, but the representa- tives of those counties must have been mistaken in the sentiment of their peo- pie. The ,eal laws are of just as much importance. f not more so, to the peo- pie of a county as are the general laws to the people of the entire State, and they should be given as wide circulation as possible
 The Journal sincerely trusts the Sen ate will pass the measure and that the Governor will sign it, thereby making It a law. It is law that will benefit the newspapers to a small extent, but at the same time it will be of more benefit to the people generally.

From the Ashland Standard

From the Tuscaloosa Gazette.

Razorback Problem.

From the Talladega News-Reporter
 After giving the matter profound thought, we have concluded that the tail Of a razorback hog is the fattest part of the beast; it is usually the heaviest. and to bring it down to an arithmetical ac- curacy, two ravorback hams equal the weight of one razor-back tail. Never re- move the tails of your razorbacks for you take away the best part.

Reflected Doctrine.

''The American people, intrencned Tn freedom at home, take their love TOT 1t with them wherever they go, and they reject as mistaken and unworthy the doc trine that we lose our own liberties by occurring the enduring foundations of lib- erty to others. Our institutions will not detertorate by extension and our sense of justice will not abate under trop1c s,,ns in distant seas. As heretofore, 50 herea fter will the nation demonstrate It's fitness to administer any new estate which events devolve upon It. and In the fear of God will take occasion by the hand and make the bonds of freedom wider yet
 "If there are those among us who would make our way more difficult we must now be disheartened, but the more earnestly dedicate ourselves to the task we have rightly entered. The path of progress Is seldom smooth. New things are often found hard to do. Our fathers found them so We find them so. They are inconvenient. They cost us something But are we not made better for the eff fort and sacrifice and are not those we serve lifted up and blessed?
 'We will be consoled. too, with the fact that opposition has confronted every on- ward movement of the Republic from its opening hour until now but without suc- cess The Republic has marched on and on and its every step has exalted free dom and humanity. We are undergoing the same ordeal as did our predecessors nearly a century ago. We are following the course they blazed They triumphed Will their successors falter and plead or ganic impotency in the nation? Surely after one hundred and twenty-five years of achievement for mankind we will not now surrender our equality with other powers on matters fundamental and es- sential to nationality. With no such pur- pose was the nation created. In no such spirit has 1t developed its full and inde- pendent sovereignty. We adhere to the principles of equality among ourselves
