posed Mr.. Roosevelt during the cam
paign with all the vigor of its editorial
columns, but since the sweep of cleo
ton day it has been descanting upon
the great responsibilities that rest
Upon the president, has undertaken to
advise him as to his duties and has
put out what some were inclined to
regard as forecast of what the presi-
dent would do on the tariff, currency
and other questions.
The solicitude of this journal and
other newspapers that were particular
ly strong in their attacks upon him
before election is very amusing to the
president. He gets little out of pa
thence with them sometimes and ex-
presses wonder that they do not ap-
preciate just how presumptuous they
are. According to their way of think
ing before election Mr.. Roosevelt was
actuated by anything but patriotic
motives in his public actions and he
was bad sort of man to be presi-
dent Of the United States. But since
the people by popular majority of
5ver 2,OOO,OO0 have decided that Mr..
Roosevelt is just about the sort Of
American citizen they want to see at
The head of the government, these
newspapers want to come in and run
lin and the government too.
Anyone who supposes that the great
majority he received has turned Mr..
Roosevelt's head will be corrected in
ais ideas if he calls at the white
,ouse. The genial, energetic young
American who has been president for
over three years is just the same to-
day as he was before the election and
the same as he was when he was in
public life 20 years ago. He is the
same, plain, honest, Straightforward,
man who seeks advice and
follows it when it squares with his
idea of what is right.

the politics of hts home state, and it
is argued that he would, welcome a
change that would take him out of that
field. He has four years more to serve
Of his term and it may be that rather
than surrender the United. STATES sena-
torshtp to the opposing republican fac
ton of Wisconsin, he will continue to
hold his seat. (
President Roosevelt has very high
estimation OF Mr.. Snooner's legal abil-
ity, and in many ways the latter would
make an ideal attorney general. He
was consulted more frequently perhaps
than any other member of the senate
in the framing of legislation to carry
out the administration ideas of what
is needed to regulate trusts and corpora
lions. His advice and work were par
ticularly valuable in perfectng the
Panama canal legislation and sthe adj
ministration felt confident that after
its provisions had been studiedsby him
they would stand any test as to their
constitutionality. es5
If he should leave the senate the late
ter body would sustain a distinct loss.
He is by long odds the best extempora-
neous debater on the floor OF the senate.
There is not one of the opposition who
can successfully cross swords with him
on any great issue. His mind is a per-
feet encyclopedia OF constitutional and
legal lore and no statement Of his. in-
volving q point of law, is questioned
on the spur Of the moment. His argu-
ments always send the other lawyers
of the senate to study their Law. books.
and it is very rarely that they can con-
trovert his statements. One Of the de-
lights In the senate chamber is to have
Senator Tillman, of South Carolina. and
Senator Spooner indulge in q running
debate. @s

their errand of mercy.
ND the Christian needs the vision OF
n world perishing in it's sin to be
aroused to the work OF rescue. He needs
to turn his eyes from the direction of
the shore where all is safe and secure
and look out upon the engulfing waters
Of sin, he needs to see the shipwrecked
souls tossing helplessly about and going
down to death; he needs to behold the
lowering clouds of Gods judgments
upon sin, to feel the fierce blasts of His
wrath against all ungodliness. All, how
complacently we view life, the world and
the men and women in the world! We
have the narrow, limited human vision
of things We blind the eye and steel
the heart against the true vision which
God gives us in His Word. God says:
"a world dead in trespasses and SINS"
We say: "A world SO alive, and pro-
gressive, and good" God says: "There
is none that doeth good, no not one"
Cali have sinned and come short of the
glory of God" We say: what an ex
celleht record man has written. How
proud God ought to be of him." We view
human life with complacency and salts
faction. We look into the faces of &C.
Quaintances, friends, loved ones, and
smile and talk, and forget that within,
oh, too often! there is the perishing
soul. We live for time; we wear the eye
glasses which the present fits to our
eyes and through which we see the world
in roseate hues; we forget that it is not
all of life to live or death to die. We
forget and are Indifferent while the
whole world is vast graveyard, with
perishing, lost souls masquerading in
the bright, attractive covering of the
human life. Oh, for the vision that will
help us to see as God sees: A lost world
instead of the attractive world in which
so much of our thought and desire and
ambition are conferred! A sin-ruined
race, in spite of all the polish and veneer
which man can cunningly devise. But we
need a second vision. A vision not only
of the worlds need, but of the worlds
Saviour. What joy to the life saver
when he sees the sinking man and is
able to put forth the strong arm and
drag him in safety from the hungry
death-waters. What joy, what un-
speakable joy comes to the Christian
whom God has placed as a life saver
in the world, as he sees the perishing
soul and is able to bring him safe to
the rock Christ Jesus. There is never
a case too hard for Jesus. Wait for
the vision of the Christ who is mighty
to save.

lay discovered a horse and buggy
standing at the corner of Fourth and
lak streets with II. j. Hillebrand and
Mrs. w. j. Miller, of Detroit, lying

arand's person written him by the wo-
man while he was in Chicago a short
time ago told of an intimacy between
he two and warned Hillebrand that
he must be careful of her husband,
Who she said had threatened to shoot
MIN if he returned here.
1iillebrand was a bar-keeper. Mrs
Miller had been married only a year
