It's Quality 10 such that II Commands Re-
spect aud Admiration.

This presidential campaign has re-
solved itself into a study of President
Roosevelt and the three years of his
administration. Beginning with much
confidence and good will, the public
has learned. from an extended exam
nation of the Presidents public acts
and uttcrances, fresh respect for the
man on the bridge of the ship of state.
And the study of events and how
tley were met has revealed how much
+ needed in the makeup of the Amer
lean chief executive the quality of
courage. Not physical courage, mere
ly, but that enduring, steadfast hold
ing to duty without fear of present
or future personal consequences which
nerves men OF strong moral and men
tai fibre.
Ii takes the strongest kind Of moral
courage 10 meet the questions which
confront the American people of our
day. The President, as representing
the whole people of the country, must
meet these questions as best he can.
lie must be eyes, ears, hands and feet
for the tremendous interests cOnfided
to his care. In short, he is the execu-
tive head of the nation.
To this great office President Roose-
welt brought a highly organized brain,
an educated understanding, a culti-
waited personality. OF ardent temper
ament. he easily secured public aifec-
ton and admiration. But, along with
his charming good fellowship and
broad humanity he had the supreme
Quality OF courage. Very 10 this

DO NOT WANT A CHANGE
People Are willing to Continue the Pres
emit Administration.

The constitution of the United States
requires an election for president and
vice president every four years. The
provision is mandatory and cannot he
escaped Under it the people are
called upon to vote for president and
vice president every fourth year with
out regard TO politics. the record, or
the work of the administration in
power. The election must be held
whether Il change Is desirable or not.
There is reason to believe that a
large majority of the American peo-
pie do not desire a change in the
national administration at the present
time, and that If it were a matter of
choice with them no election would be
held this year. A national election
always interferes with business more
or less, and as the business of the
country grows the feeling increases
that, in the absence of any reason for
a change, n presidential election is a
disturbing factor that might well be
dispensed with If the constitution per-
mitted. That is the situation at pres
ent. The great mass of the people are
so well satisfied with the present ad-
m~inistration that they do not desire
q change, and If the constitution did
not require m election to be held they
would regard II as unnecessary.
Who wants a changer Not the
farmers. for they never were more
prosperous or better satisfied than they
are AT present. Not the business men,
for business is satisfactory. Not man
~ufacturers, for American manufacture
ers are outstripping those of all other
countries. Not wage-earners, for there
are more men employed at good wages
today than ever before in the history
of the country. Not railroad men. for
the transportation business has grown
enormously during the last few years
and still gives promise of future
growth. In short. no large class Of
our varied population can he named
but has good reason to desire a con-
tinuance of present conditions. III II
were not for the constitutional require
ment the people would have preferred
that no election took place this year.
The only exceptions are the Demo
cratic party leaders and those I'M
fortunate people who have not the
sense to let well enough alone.

CALLS PEACE CONFERENCE.
President Requests Reassembling Of
Hauue Convention.

Washington, Oct. 3O.-In a circular
note Secretary Hay has carried out
the presidents instructions relative 10
proposing a second Hague conference.
The note not only contemplates the
reassembling of The Hague conference
for the consideration of questions
specifically mentioned by the original
conference as demanding further at
%tention, such as the rights and duties
of neutrals, the inviolability OF pri
vate property in naval warfare and
the bombardment of ports by naval
force; but goes further by practically
endorsing the project of a general sys
TEN of arbitration treaties and the es-
adjustment of an international con-
gIess TO meet periodically in the in
terest of peace. The issue OF the call
while the present war is in progress
Is justified by the fact that the first
Hague conference was called before
our treaty of peace with Spain was
concluded.

many by his willing response to the
summons.
He is thoroughly competent to per

dren were. in consequence, warmed
and fed and sheltered from the storms
Of winter.
In this life Of ours the first gift to
all the sons of men is courage. And
then courage, and again courage!
Again, when the people began to de-
spair under the heavy tread of the
overpowering trust mOnopolies, Presi-
dent Roosevelt took the initiative to-
ward regulation by law of the illegal
combinations which threaten the
smaller corporations as well as indi-
viduals. Now, again, there were dis
cOuragers of action. Again there were
many who. seeing the danger. still
could see no way Of escape. And
again, through the constituted chan
nels of legal action, President Roose-
welt took l..e initiative in the defense
against trespassers upon the national
laws of commerce and labor. In the
Northern Securities ease the court sus-
tanned the position of the executive,
and gave the people a lesson as to one
lawful way by which illegal monopo-
lies car be controlled.
There have o been wanting other
examples of courage and sense of re-
sponsiblity in Roosevelt's presidential
career. The two instances referred to
here are enough to remind people what
manner of man sits now in the Presi-
dents chair mt Washington. We need
courage there at the head of the ma
ton. We are not going to part with II

In 1850 when the Republican party
first came into power this was almost
exclusively an agricultural country and
the policy of the Democratic party was
TO keep it so. That party said the
United States is destined to he the
granary of the world. but n manufact-
uring country. never. The Republican
policy was TO make IL IL great manu-
featuring rs well as agricultural
country. and it has done so. In the
year 1890 the United States produced
onc.third of all the manufactured
products Of the world and shipped
them broadcast to foreign markets.
This never could have been done I'M
