The frankly avowed purpose has
been achieved. and it must be admit
ted that there never was l particle OF
discrimination about Theodore RooSc-
Welt. 1t must also be admitted that
his confidence in his destiny and I'm.
bounded popularity has been vindica-
ted by one OF the most illustrious
personal triumphs in all political his
tory. From the moment that he
entered the White House he made
no pretence of any other thought
than to have himself elected presl-
dent of the United States. II am
only an ad iter;:n now," he was IA
miliarly quoted as saying; 'Sjust you
wait until I am elected president and
then you will see!"
See what? Mr. Roosevelt is elect
ed president now and the formality
of the 4tfl Of March can make but lit
tie difference to him. What shall
we see?
We have had many severe things
to say about Mr.. Roosevelt and his
administration, and we sincerely re-
gret it. We regret far more that there
is not one of them that we can un-
say. There has never been a re-
futal Or a contradiction of anything.
1t will be happiness inexpressible if
Mr.. Roosevelt's own administration,
which we count from today, should
itself furnish a refutation He has
it in him to be a patriotic and
complete president, to be the presi
dent, not of the decayed and corrup>
half of the republican party, but or
the whole people of the United States.
In everything that betrays such an
intent he will have the stout and clean
handed support of The Sun; but in
respect of that which is contrary
thereto Our freedom to condemn shall
known no let or hindrance

The Sun on Roosevelt.

Theodore Roosevelt is elected pres
ident of the United States. The term
for which William Mckinley was
elected will expire on the 4th of next
March, when what Mr. Roosevelt
might regard as his first term as pres
ident of the United States will begin.
Nj. Roosevelt might have coverted a
second election and have regarded
himself as eligible for third term,
believing, as he does, that the Ameri-
can people have no objection to con-
tinuing in office deserving servant
of proved fidelity.
To his everlasting honor be it said
that on election night in the hour OF
his triumph, he deliberately renounc~
ed this not unreasonable theory. He
will retire from Office on the 4th of
March, 1908, content with a single
election by the people. 1t is solely
to this end that his ambition has look
ed and his political energies have
been devoted.

same. During the fall that is now
passing apples were SO plentiful in
many OF the states OF this country
that they we're not even gathered
gathered from the trees or the ground
and there was no inclination to gath
cr them at the prices at which they
were selling.
American apples sell we'll abroad,
and especially the better known Vir-
ginia varieties, grown on soil OF
which there is little of it's kind any
where else.
There seems to have been plenty
OF fruit everywhere during the past
summer.

Passing Of Old Hotel.

The Girard hotel of Brownville,
the oldest hotel in the United States
west of the Allegheny mountains, and
which has been in continuous service
furnishing entertainment for man
and beast for over 100 years, was sold
by the sheriff of Fayette county re-
Gently to satisfy a mortgage.
While not the first hotel built this
side OF the Alleghenies, the Girard is
without doubt the oldest point OF
service. 1t was built in 1900, and
just four years ago this summer cele-
brated the centennial of its establish
lent. In the more than a century
that has passed since the hotel has
been in constant service. 1t has
changed hands frequently, but has al
ways been favorite place for trav
elcrs 70 stop.
In the old days OF the National
Pike it was a famous hostelry.
Brownsville was then the head Of
navigation on the Monongahela. river.
The only route from Washington and
Baltimore to all the vast domain that
lies west of the Monogahela river val
lev was through Brownsville At
least that most travelled. Governors,
senator's, congressman and traveller:
of every kind and description jour-
neyed that way and made the old
Girard house their stopping place.
Andrew Jackson was guest there.
So was Henry Clay. Gen. LaFay-
cite was entertained at the Girard,
and host of others whose names are
familiar in American history. Jack
son was frequent guest at the house,
and always insisted on having the
best Monongahela rye whiskey the
valley could produce. 1t is related
Of him that on one Of his trips over
the pike he suffered a sprained ankle
and put up at the Girard for repairs.
The Brownsville physician called to
attend him undertook to bathe the
injured ankle with whiskey, to which
"Old Hickory" vigorously objected.
Although the medical man had his
way, the hero Of New Orleans insist
ed that the use of the remedy intern
ally would do more good and save
sacrilege.
Of late years the management Of
the old house has not been so Sue
cessful, and it may soon make way
for modern improvements.
