Senator stewart Sees the Great Light.

Senator Stewart of Nevada, the last
of the Silverites, has seen the great
white light. His visions are those Of
Joseph and the seven fat years. His
talk is of minerals and Nevada, and
the blessings of the Dingley tariff on
boraX and wool. He said:
''President Roosevelt is very popular
in the mountain states of the west.
Through his influence the irrigation
law was passed. The Dingleya tariff is
a great blessing to the far west. The
tariff on lead, boraX wool and hides is
especially beneficial to the interior
mountain states. The people of Ne
vada are beginning to realize that the
silver question has been relegated to
the rear as result of the enormous
output of gold during the last eight
years. Those voters who left the par
ty on account of the silver issue are
returning and, with the Democrats who
desire practical good, are uniting in
support OF the administration. My in
formation is that Nevada will go Re-
publican"

Rise Above Your Troubles.

No matter what cares, anXietieS OF
sorrows may vex or sadden you, do not
prove yourself a weakling by going
down before them, but show yourself
noble in rising above them and mold
ing them to life's purpose. Rather bear
an insult than give one; rather dry a
tear than cause one to be shed. How
many celebrities we would have If
men would be as anxious to make their
own fame as they are to unmake the
fame of Others

Exhaustion a Blessing.

United States Consul General Guen-
Their, at Frankfort, Germany, quotes
noted professor as saying that expan-
sion does not lessen a nations inner
ent compactness and strength. On the
contrary, a nation can Only become
great, he says, by having space in
which to expand. Great Britain is cited
as an example of what expansion has
done for nation that originally had
little territory

An Untried Man, or One Who Has Made
Good Record.
The good results Of the affairs of Il
nation depend almost absolutely upon
it's 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 among those nations which eX-
hibits the greatest honesty and tact
and common sense, is the nation which
will be to the fore.
Under the administration of the par
ty that is now controlling the affairs
Of the United States has occurred such
extra ordinary diplomatic success as
has perhaps never been eXcelled by
any nation at any time. This success
has accrued because of the tact and
sense of the present president of the
United States, assisted by his secretary
of state. The record has been some
thing extraordinary, and all the civil
lied world has recognized it.
Tact and sense are just as much a
requisite in the conduct Of the affairs
of nation as they are in the affairs
Of corporation or an individual. We
reward those who exhibit tact and
sense by continuing them in place, for
hardly be expressed. Any American
citizen of intelligence will know whom
to vote for this fall.

A THING WELL DONE
A Record That Recommends Roosevelt to
the Voters.

A Record That Recommends Roosevelt to
the Voters.
The relations between capital and
labor in the United States are the ex-
iStent conditions which affect the well
fare of many millions of people. The
! relations between any administration
and the adjustment of these ques-
lions must necessarily be careful and
most delicate.
What has happened in this relation
under the administration of President
Roosevelt? What happened and what
made the ultimate result in the gigan-
tic miners strike in Pennsylvania?
Who was it who devised, in plain,
cOmmOn-Sense, American way, sOlu-
ton of the problem which affected the
welfare of hundreds of thousands? OF
course that is all, now, relatively, an
old story The man who did this with
his cOmmOn-Sense was the present
candidate of the Republican party for
the presidency. He ventures upon
things, and he does them well from a
aightfOrward, patriotic point of
view
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 recommendations 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 a great mass
of the people. Could there be better
campaign document than the plain
story of what this man did in straight
ening out of relations between capital
and labor in Pennsylvania?

The cry that President Roosevelt, if
elected, will pick a quarrel and plunge

President Roosevelt while urging that
the country at all times be prepared to
defend itself and maintain its po1.cies,
is for peace.

Carefully prepared statistics show
that the number of business failures
in 1892, the last year under President
Harrison, was 1884, while in 1898,
the first year of his Democratic success
sor, they were 1922. A party whose
success always alarms capital and
causes an increase in the number OF
business failures is not one for patriot
ic Americans to support.

OF Course Not.

David B. Hill stated, in one of his
speeches, that Mr.. Roosevelt, on taking
the oath of office after the death OF
President Mckinley, said that he would
not be a candidate FOR president in
1904.
President Roosevelt has never made
a promise as to his own personal ac-
ton which he did not redeem. The
president is outspOken, fair and
square. These are characteristics OF
the man. He makes no promises ne
does not intend to keep, and he keeps
such as he makes.
The silly story started by Hill had
no foundation in fact, and it is really
not worth the ink and paper that has
been used in denying it, except that it
once more marks the character OF Hill.
