PRESIDENTIAL ORAT0RY.
tFrom the Columbus Press.)


When President Roosevelt arises to
address an assemblage all the people
of the nation give attention. Interest
in what the President may have to
say does not proceed from any superior
merit Mr., Roosevelt may possess as
reasoner, philosopher or an orator,
because there are many men in public
life who excel him in forensic ability.
1t is because Mr.. Roosevelt is the
chief magistrate of this nation that
the people give heed to what he has to
say. II 1t is physically impossible for
all to gather with the sound of his
voice when he delivers an address,
wherever ii may he and whatever the
occasion, the President is assured of
an audience of many millions, because
the people know that his utterances
will be communicated to every nook
and corner of the country through the
newspapers.
Another man might deliver exactly
the same discourse and 1t might not
attract attention outside of the i'm
mediate circle in interest, If indeed II
did not fall upon inattcntive ears. But
because THE PRESIDENT is speak
ing every ear within hearing distance
Is alert TO listen, and the wires vi
brate with the expressed thought OF
the President as It is transmitted to
thousands OF newspapers. For wha
THE PRESIDENT SAYS is news, and
the newspapers want to print 1t be-
cause the people want to read It,
Whether 1t is the hckleness OF tn,
public mind or whether II is the ab
struse manner of speech affected b,
President Roosevelt, It is noticeabl
that his public addresses do not gen

NO MORE
Good Times For
'Tramps.
Police Visit KiIns Nightly
Now.
How a Fourteenth Annual Stay
Was Broken.

The police on night duty at this time
in East and South Akron, have Gus
tom of making the rounds of the pot
teries, kilns and other warm places In
search for tramps, who are not per-
mitted to linger. 1t is believed that
there have been enough raids on such
places to convince the wandering
brotherhood that Akron is good place
to stay away from.
Formerly numbers of tramps used
to come to Akron early in the fall and
remain here until spring, living on
what they could beg and steal, and
sleeping at night in and about the
kilns at the potterles, etc. A few years
ago a tramp colony became 80 great a
nuisance that the police were sent out
to Weeks pottery, and number of
tramps were arrested. When they
were arraigned in Police court next
morning one of them admitted, when
questioned, that that was his four.
teenth winter in Akron, and also his
fourteenth season at Weeks pottery
No more such protracted stays are
possible now, for the police and watch
men on the trail.
The recent fire at the brick yards OF
Cooper bros, in East Akron, was
another thing which meant trouble
for tramps, as it is believed that tn
fire at Cooper's may have been OF in
cendiary origin. Other manufacturer
will take no chances now.

States Attorney Wineman Brings Joy

States Attorney Wineman Brings Joy
To Russians.
Grand Forks Herald.
States Attorney Wineman, who
returned yesterday morning from
Devils Lake, says that while wait
ing for his train at that place. he
brought happiness to one family
that he knows of. A Russian with
his wife and two children had ar
rived from the old country the
evening before, and were still
camping in the depot. When Mr..
Wineman entered the depot the
Russian approached him and be-
gan talking in his native tongue,
or in some other tongue that was
Greek to Mr.. Wineman. The lat
ter replied in German which the
Russian could also speak fuently,
and proceeded to tell a story Of his
troubles.
At New York he and his family
had been the only ones on the
boat who were quarantined after
arrival in port. One of their child
rem had the smallpox, and the
family was kept in the hospital for
nine days. Not being able to
speak English, they could gain no
information of any nature, and
from the time they arrived there
till they met Mr.. Wineman at
Devils Lake they had not been
able to speak to a living soul.
The Russian, Christian Baskaki,
had determined on arriving at
Devils Lake, that he had been
dumped at the wrong place, but it
was learned later that he was at
his destination all right, and that
al uncle, residing near the Lake,
had been at the depot every day
for the past week looking for him.
He was delighted that he had
made no mistake, and Mr. Wine
man says he is certain of one vote
at least, no matter what he should
run for in the future, as the Rus
sian was very profuse in his
thanks.

by some unknown person, believed to
be a negro. The boy when found at
midnight was alive, but died within
Is minutes, not being able to give q
description of his assailant.
No Clew to Crime.
The police are without a clew. The
body of the girl was found at the foot
of a telephone pole in a ditch two feet
deep. She had been ravished by her as
sailant. Her underclothing was badly
torn. At the base of her head she h3a
been hit with some hard instrument
resulting in fracturing the skull. On
the crown of the head there were four
or five in~dentations, all of which
would nave proven serious if notfata1.
Not a brick or an instrument a be
found within the region where the
murders occurred. The boy whoTsas
found in the ditch on the opposite SHE
of the road was most cruelty treated.
Full half a dozen i~ndentations were
made in the skull and his face also
showed evidence of being pounded.

STRIKES SPREAD.
Classes OF Belgium Creates
Serious Outlook,

Brussels, April ia dispatch from
La Louviere, a town in the province
of Hainaut, announces that, in ac-
cordance with the decision of the la
Dor leaders, a general strike has conf
menced in the coal mines, glass works
and factories of the central districts,
including. Mariemont and Bascoup.
Advices from Liege say that a gen
eral strike has been started in the
coal mines of the seraing district ain
at the Keith foundries at Solessin.
There has been, thus far, no question
of %proclaiming martial law. Such q
step cannot be taken in Belgium with
out special legislative action. ~
About $4,000 men are now out on
strike in the Mons district.
Bands of strikers at Charleroi, later
in the day, paraded the streets and
the surrounding country, closing the
workshops and factories whose en-
ployes had not joined the strike. Thu
succeeded in shutting up all the met
al factories, most of the glass works
and a number of other establishments.
The same tactics are beginning to be
adopted at Jumet and Roux.
