Upon no other president Since

more truth that his mantle has fall
len, than upon President Roosevelt.
He has in his makeup a great dea'
of the spirit OF Lincoln. AS Lin.
coin freed the country from politi.
cal despotism, so Roosevelt is de-
termined to free the country from
the despotism Of gigantic combina-
tons of capital. Neither the oil
garchy Of the South, nor the arts
tocracy Of wealth, will be permi tied
to rule this nation. and degrade
American manhood. Lincoln had
great faith in the people and SO has
president Roosevelt. With Roose-
welt as with Lincoln. American citi-

Engraving and Printing for the past five
years. He was seen by the neighbors as
late as Tuesday evening, when he SEEM
ed TO be in his usual spirits. Since that
day no one has been seen about the
house, while papers have accumulated on
the doorstep. Knowing that the family
was out of the city. the neighbors in
ferred that Smith was taking his meals
down town, and thought nothing of 1t.
Late yesterday afternoon the family
returned home. Mrs. Smith rang the
bell and, receiving no response, used
her latch key and entered. She was met
by an overpowering odor of gas. Rush =
ing through the house until she came TO
the bedroom on the second floor, she
saw the body OF her husband stretched
on the floor. The gas jet was turned full
on. She turned off the gas, threw open
a window, and then tainted. Her con-
dition is still critical today.

and summoned DR.. f. S. Lothrop, of
Eighth and East Capitol Streets. He
found the man dead. and notified Core
ner hewitt. The latter decided that he
had been dead at least two days. From
the position of the body, and the fact
that the cock turned very easily. the
Coroner came TO the conclusion that
Smith accidentally turned the gas on
after turning ii of, and when he felt the
effects of the fumes, made an effort ia
reach the window, in which he failed
He therefore gave a certificate OF acci-
dental death. Smith was twenty-eight
years old. Funeral arrangements have
