Another Illinois Centenarian.

Not to be outdone by her neigh
boring city of Monmouth. to whose
centenarian extended reference has
already been made by The Argus,
Quincy boasts of Leonard Roeder
who yesterday attained his one hum
dred and second birthday He is one
of the very few persons left in the
world who witnessed the memorable
conflict on the plain of Waterloo
which changed the map of Europe
and humbIed the pride of the Little
Corsican." sending him a prisoner
To the island of St. Helena. That
will be eighty-seven years old on the
18th of next June. but the events
are still fresh in the mind of this
centenarian. His only regret and
the overshadowing misfortune of his
life is the fact that, he did not have
an opportunity to engage actively in
the battle. But that he was there
and was a member of Gen. Bluch-
er's army is unquestioned. as he still
has his discharge papers.
Aside from the natural infirmities
which extreme age is responsible for,
Mr. Roeder is still in good health.
Some years ago he lost sight of one
of his eyes. and the other has been
dimmed somewhat as consequence
of the strain on it. His hearing is
not very good, although no worse
than that of many only half his age.
1t is now fifty-eight years since
he came to this country from Ger
many to live. He soon acquired the
English language, which he spoke
with some fiuency up to n couple of
years ago. when, through some
trick of nature he suddenly seemed
to forget all the English he ever
knew, and found he could converse
only in German. His hair is as white
as the driven snow. but otherwise he
exhibits no special mark of his many
years. His shoulders are slightly
stopped, but he walks with a firm
step, and his skin is comparatively
smooth and has a healthy glow.

Democrats Oppose Subsidy.

When the Hanna-Frye ship subsidy
bill came up in committee. the dem
ocratic members voted solidly
against reporting it and solidly for
striking out the general subsidy pro-
vision. That is the right democratic
position and that is the position
upon which all democrats must
stand.
Issues have seemed somewhat neb-
uIous for months past, but gradual
" the doubts are clearing away.
The great public questions are TAX
ing shape. Upon the Isthmian can
al. SAYS the Philadelphia Times,
there can be no party difference.
for the whole country wants the
best route selected and the big ditch
dug with the utmost speed and
economy.
But in other matters there are diff
ferences. Subsidy is one of them,
and against il unalterabiy is dem
ocracy. The tariff is another, and
the democratic position is for
reduction and reform. Other things
will come to the front. Altogether
there will be plenty of principle and
policy for n fine party contest when
the fighting time comes.

en- Empire Sold Mt Auction.

The Roman empire was once sold to
the highest bidder. On the death of
PertinaX in 1913 the Pr;ptorian guards
put up the empire for sale by auction,
and. after an animated competition be-
tween Sulpician and Julian, it was
knocked down to the latter for G,250
drachmas. The Romans held auctions
of various kinds. the proceedings be-
ing much the same in all cases. The
auctio sub hasta. which was n sale of
plumber, was held under n spear stuck
in the ground. The magister auctions,
or auctioneer, was chosen from among
the argentarii, or money changers, and
his assistants were the cashiers.
