alk About Presidential Possibilities

Before his departure for Cincinnati
Senator Foraker was asked if Roose-
Welt would be the Republican nominee
in 1904.
Unquestionahly. replied the sen
ater. He came to the presidency I'M
der the most trying circumstances.
He has met every just expectation
and is entitled to the nomination. He
is a strong, broad-ninded. aggressive
American, and a fit repre- sentative
Of the great policies of the nation. He
is a positive man with earnest convic
tions, which he fearlessly espouses
and advances on all proper occasions.
Such a man will have some enemies,
but the great mass of the people rec
ognize in President Roosevelt man
of probity of character and upright
ness Of purpose

the interior department have decided
upon important plans for the improve.
ment of the free bathing facilities
at Hot Springs, Ark. Under the pres
ent arrangement any INDECENT person
is permitted to bathe in pools provid.
ed ON the government reservation.
For long time there has been much
objection to the pool bathing, and at
the last session of congress and ap.
preparation of $4,000 was authorized
for the enlargement and improvement
OF the bath system. 1t was decided
to remove the pools and substitute in
dividual tubs. Sixty-five of these tubs
