WHILE he WAS GOVERNOR
Roosevelt Wrote About the Duties
and RESPONSIBILITIES of President

Boston, Oct 30.-In an article written
for the YOUTHS Companion. which will
be published next week, Theodore Roose-
welt gives his ideas of the duties and
responsibilities OF TIE president of the
United States. Mr.. Roosevelt wrote the
article in 1900, while he was governor of
New York and previous to the ReDub
lican national convention which norni-
mated him for vice president. In it Mr..
Roosevelt sa-s:
The president of the United States
occupies a position of peculiar import
ance. In the whole world there is no
other ruler certainly no other ruler un-
der free institutions, whose power COM
pares with his OF course. there is the
enormous personal factor of the incum-
bent himself to be considered entirely
apart from the power of the office itself
This is merely another way of stating
that in any office the personal question
is always Of vital consequence
The senators are the constitutional
advisers of the president. The secre-
taries who form the cabinet advise him
on matters of general policy when he
so desires it. With the senate the ad-
vice Is obligatory under the constitution.
The senators have no right to dictate
to the president who shall be appointed,
but they have an entire right to say
who shall not be appointed, for under
the constitution this has been made
their duty
Although many men must share with
the president the responsibility there Is
upon him always a heavy burden OF re-
sponsibility- 1t is easy to give a bad
administration. but to give a good adj
mlnistration demands the most anxious
thought. no less than very unusual
power Of mind
There is every reason why the pres
ldent should be held to a sharp account
ABILITY alike for what he does and for
what he leaves undone. But we iniure
ourselves and the nation if we fail to
treat with proper respect the man who,
IN the highest Office in our land, is striv-

Huntzell, a Methodist missionary sent
from Chicago two years ago to southern
China, reached here today on his way
home for six months leave of absence
to recuperate his health. He declares
that if Christians everywhere could be-
hold the scenes he witnessed daily in
China they would no longer hesitate
about contributing to foreign missions.
Conditions in southern China are
worse" he says, than in India during
the plague. The people have no morals.
Women and girls, and even wives. are
sold into slavery. The women do all the
work, while the men sleep in the sun.
The southern Chinese women never de,
sert thir husbands. They are absolute
slaves. The girl children are usually
killed at BIRTH
In three years Mr.. Huntzell's station
at-Cho Song has made only $50 converts
and esta blished only two schools He
thinks it will take a century of the
hardest work to civilize southern China
