RIIs's Presidential Year Book

1t is safe to say that in the coning
Presidential campaign, in which almost
beyond doubt Theodore Roosevelt will
be the most prominent figure, this
volume, Jacob A Riis's new book,
Theodore Roosevelt the Citizen, will
be universally read by all who want to
know the man as he is. The book
abounds in incident and humor and
overfows with cbeerfulness and hope
tulness. 1t is just as far as possible
removed from a formal biography.
Each chapter takes up some important
phase of Mr.. Roosevelt's private life or
public career, and in animated nara
tive form shows how that phase made
part of the development of his character
and forcefulness. The story comes
down to the present time, and includes
a survey of the acts of Mr.. Roosevelt as
President. 1t also has collection of
the sharp, pungent, almost epigramma-
tic sentences in which Mr.. Roosevelt
often compacts policy or situation.

ON THE BENCH SINCE 1881.
Unique Record of Judge Steere of
SauIt Ste Marie.

Judge Joseph H. Steere, of Sault Ste
Marie, who is the upper peninsula can
didate for one of the vacancies on the
supreme bench, has served as a circuit
judge in the Chippewa, Luce and School
craft district continuously ever since
1881, term of twenty-three years. the
longest of any judge now sitting upon
any circuit bench in the state of Mich
gan. Judge Steere was but twenty
nine years of age when he first assembled
the bench, thus adding to his unique
record the additional feature of having
been one of the youngest men ever
elected to a circuit judgeship in the
state.
Not only Judge Steere's long service
as a judge, but his impartiality, fairness
and good sense have all conspired to
make host of friends for him in all
parts of the state, and it is safe to say
the. upper peninsula has never offered
more popular and more highly respect
ed candidate for any state Office than it
does in presenting Judge Steere to the
consideration of the people of Michigan.

The decision of Attorney General
Blair to decline the appointment of Cir
cult judge for Jackson county, rendered
him by Gov. Bliss, stamps Mr.. Blair as
one of the few men who regard their
obligations to the public as greater than
their personal wishes and interests. Mr..
Blair had practically the unanimous en-
dorsement of the bar and citizens of
Jackson county for this appointment
and all entirely unsolicited. 1t has also
been his wish for years to go on the
bench. However he feels that he owes
it TO the people of the State to remain in
his present position and defend the suits
commenced by the railroads against the
State touching the question of taxation.
While his decision to do this may cause
him some regret at this time, still we
believe Mr.. Blair will in the end be
amply rewarded for standing by the in
terests of the people.

Prosperity Figures.

The figures of the foreign trade of the
United States for the month of Deem
Der and the calendar year, now complet-
ed by the department of commerce and
labor, are extremely gratifying For
the month of December the exports to
foreign countries were valued at STA,
1868, the largest for one month in the
history of the country. The nearest APP
proach to them were the exports for Oc-
tober, 1900, which were valued at $163,
3S9,6sO.
The total exports for the calendar
year were valued at $1,4S4, sos, 1877.
They also stand unequalled in the
country's records, the nearest approach
being the exports for 1900, amounting
to $1,477, 946, 113. AS the imports for
the year 1908 amounted to only 1905,
473, 101, the excess of exports over i'm
ports or the balance of trade in our
favor, during 1908 was $4S9, 1875, O26.
These figures tell a wonderful story of
past growth and present prosperity.
If we go back 30 years we find the ex-
ports were 1861, 757, s67 and the imports
$685., 24S, 04S, balance of trade against
he United States of $27,490, 1S1. In
tAi< wears the imports of the country
the 3dyS1 Iper cent, while the ex-
navs 'n SaTe increaSs cent :
Since 1883 the imports have gained in
round numbers $3OS, 100000 while the
exports have gained 1888, OOo,0 900. In
the last ten years. or since 1913, the
i,aports have increased 1000, 600,
while the exports have gained $6Os, OOO,-
900.
TAX of panic and business depres-
sion has no place in the discussion OF
sncb figures as these. For three years |
the farmers of the land have enjoyed un-
usually bountiful crops. They are now |!

which has ever blest this country. |
they are selling their SURPRISES, and the |
manufacturers of the land are selling |

From these facts the conclusion is I'M
avoidable that this country is on the
road of advancement in wealth and
prosperity toward point never before
reached by any nation of the world.

OF the small set back caused few
months ago by an excess of prosperity

But presently he was aware that
some one stood behind his chair. A
hand fell on his shoulder and then u
