The street paving ordinance Is still
creating a good deal Of talk, but it is
mostly against it. The people DO not
take to the idea at all, especially those
residing in the suburbs. They don't Ike
the idea Of having to be forced 70 pave
at their own expense and At the same
time pay year after year for the paving
Of central property that does not belong
to them. Again, the proposed plan Is
unjust, when It comes to a comparison
of values. Property in tie center OF tie
city is worth a great deal more than in
the suburbs. Paving in the center Of the
city enhances the property a great deal
more than in the suburbs. Still, not
withstandinS that fact, it IS undertaken
TO make the suburban resident not only
pave in front Of his property, whether he
wants to or not, and where he win de-
rive no special benefit, and after doing
that keep on paying for pavement which
increased other peoples property in tile
center Of the city many per cent. The
proposition is 50 obnoxious and objection.
able all round that it Is sincerely hoped
that the city council viii not even men

Archie and Quentin, who were hanging on
their mothers arms and pulling her along

White House famous for the good -lu-

This photograph, showing President
Roosevelt III the act of clearing a high
fence astride his favorite riding horse, is
one of the best known photographs of a
president ever taken. 1t has been repro
duced many times in the newspapers and
magazines. 1t is the presidents favorite
photogra ph.- and the one he has purchased
in large numbers for personal friends.
This photograph was taken last fall. one
afternoon when the president was riding
with General Leonard Wood In the er-
vrons of northwest Washington, near
Chevy Chase. 1t is his custom to take
these rides almost daily: and when he
doesn't ride. he walks. He has covered

Mrs Roosevelt; is very emphatic in her
dislike of being photographed. 1t is
related of her that when she came into
the White House she had not had a pic
ture taken for years, and since she has
bene there it. has: been a very difficult
matter to- get her to- sit for any. Before
the close of the present season, however,
she arranged with Miss Johnston, who had
succeeded so well with Miss Alice and the
children. for some special sttings, with
the accompanying gratifying results.

It is not highly desirable, but necessary.
that there should be legislation which
shall carefully shield the interests of wage
workers, and which shall discriminate in
favor of the honest and humane employer
by removing the disadvantage under which
he stands when compared with unscrupu-
lous employers who have no conscience,
and will do right only under fear Of pun
ishment. Nor can legislation stop only
with what are termed labor questions.

When President Mckinley succumbed
to the assassin's bullet, every thoughtful
person in the United States began to
wonder what kind Of a policy President
Roosevelt would follow. For enllghten-
rnent they turned to what has since be-
come famous as 1.-The Minneapolis speech.
Then Vice President Roosevelt came TO
Minnesota in September, 1901, to visit
the state fair and on September 2, just
four days before Mckinley fell at Buffalo,
he delivered a speech in which he spoke
on many of the subjects he would have to
deal with as president. The most strlk-
ing clause in the speech, and the one by
which it is popularity recalled ls-"we
shall find it necessary in the future to
shackle cunning, in the past we
shackled force.'' The Stacking was to be
performed on the trusts.
|. President Roosevelt is to speak here
this evening. Whether he will folio"
along the lines of his utterances Of two
years ago remains to- be seen. In any
event it will be interesting to reread the
following extracts from his state fail
speech of: 1902:

as to where our legislation shall stop in
interfering between man and man, be-
tween interest and interest.

Here again we have got to remem-
Der that our first duty is to our own
people; and yet that we can best
get justice by doing justice. We
must continue the policy, that has
been so brilliantly successful in the
past, and so shape ourSe economic sys-
TEN as to give every advantage: to
the skill, energy and intelligence of
our farmers, merchants, manufactgr-
| .ers and wage workers.; and yet We
must also remember, in dealing. with
other nations, that benefits must. be
| given when benefits are sought.

It is not. possible to dogmatize as toethe
exact way of attaining this end; for the
exact conditions cannot be -foretold. In
the long run one of our prime needs is

rect legislation, it may, at least in certain
cases, become advantageous to- supple
