CONSULAR SERVICE.

call your attention to the reduced cost
in maintaining the consular service for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1903, as shown
in the annual report of the auditor for
state and other departments, as compared
with the year previous. For the year un-
der consideration the excess of expendi-
lures over receipts on account of the con-
sular service amounted to S26. 125.12. as
against SOC 972.5 30 for the year ending June
30, 1902, and 47.040.16 for the year ending
June 80, 1901. This is the best showing in
this respect for the consular service for
the past fourteen years, and the reduction
in the cost of the service to the govern
ment has been made in spite of the fact
that the expenditures for the year in ques-
ton We're more than $4,000 greater than
for the previous wear

Since Mr.. Roosevelt became Presi-
dent of the United States and has
been in the lime-light, the people of
the country who want to keep up
with the times and keep themselves
posted on all the things shat can be
said for and against man in public
life have been reading the many
books that have been written by the
fecund pen of the man who now oc-
cupies the highest office in the nation
Some of the students of this city
have found that a popularity of
Roosevelt's writing is that he has had
very few kind words to say of any
man who ever occupied high place
In this country; that on the contrary
he has lambasted the life out of most
OF them. Take for instance, his
opinion of Thomas Jefferson express
ed in his Naval War of 1872" InI
volume XII, page 1913, of that work
from the pen of Theodore Roosevelt
ne was Incorporate enough to say
that Mr. Jefferson was perhaps the
most incapable Executive that ever
filled the Presidential chair" That
seems to be pretty tough on the
author OF the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, the man who acquired the
Louisiana territory, who was twice
President of the United States both
times elected by ballots and not by !
bullets, who was the fo6nder Of the
University, of Va. and whose teach
lngs have ever been in the bulwark of
popular government in this country as
against the rule of the classes. Mr..
Roosevelt seems not only to be an
but of late years he seems
TO have become painful pragmatic
preacher. He defends and proclain!s

Die tendency to lecture the public on
'elf-evident propositions, and to do Y
1t with a suspicion of sensational i
purpose, as, notably, in his warning
against race suicide and his recent /
sermon on decent living. The people
of this country if am any Judge on
every day human nature, do not like e
20 be lectured. They think they l
