An Untried Man, or Ono Who Has Made
Good Record.
The good results of the affairs Of a
nation depend almost absolutely upon
its relations with other nations. There
is, under the present condition Of
thought and affairs, an advancement in
the world-a community of nations.
The one amongthose nations which ex-
hibfts the greatest honesty and tact
land common sense, is the nation which
will be to the fore.
Under the administration OF the par
ty that is now controlling tho affairs
Of the United States has occurred such
extraordinary diplomatic success as
has perhaps never been excelled by
any nation at any time This success
has accrued because Of the tact aud
sense Of the present president Of the
$ United Sta ties, assisted by his secretary
of state. The record has been some
thing extraordinary, and all the civil
tied world has recognized It.
Tact and sense are Just as much q
requisite In the conduct of the affairs
of nation as they are in the affairs
Of a corporation or an individual. We
reward those who exhibit tact and
sense by continuing them in place, for
our own benefit The conclusion need
hardly be expressed. Any American
citizen of intelligence will know whom
to vote for this fall

things, and he does them well from a
straightforward. patriotic point Of

1t is not good thing to bear in mind
that the record Of what Theodore
Roosevelt did in connection with the
Pennsylvania labor troubles is one Of
the greatest recommendation for his
election to the presidency? There was
a delicate situation-it was even a
question whether the president should
intervene or not. He did intervene,
with wholesome manliness, and the re
suit was for the good Of great mass
Of the people. Could there be better
