ALMOST LIKE PROPHECY.
Rooseve1t's View as to Qualifications
the Vice President.

Ro0seve1t's View as to Qualifications of
the Vice President.
Theodore Roosevelt is not a prophet,
nor the son of a prophet, but he looks at
things very straight and sees into them
pretty clearly.
During the presidential campaign Of
1896 the editor of the Review of Reviews
asked Mr.. Roosevelt, who was then Pres
ident Of the New York Police Board,
to write an article on the Vice Presi-
dency, together with comments on the
three candidates who had been nominal
ed respectively by the Republicans, the
Democrats and the Populists. Following
is an extract from Mr.. Roosevelt's arti-
Gle:
1.-The Vice President should, so far as
possible. represent the same views and
principles which have secured the nomi-
nation and election of the President, and
he should be a man standing well in the
councils Of the party, trusted by his fell
low leaders, and able, in the event of any
accident to his chief, to take up the work
Of the latter just where it was left"
This was written nearly four years
before Mr.. Roosevelt was even mentioned
for Vice President, and before his cleo
ton as Governor OF New York. He was
nominated for Vice President against his
own wishes because the Republican party
believed that il elected he would be able.
in the event OF any accident to Mr.. Nc
Kinley, to take up and carry on the work
of the latter, and history has proved the
correctness of this view.
Mr.. Roosevelt's first public utterance
after he succeeded to the Office Of Presi-
lent was a promise to carry on the work
OF his lamented chief to the best of his
ability and strength. How faithfully and
successfully he has lone so is shown by
the history he has helped to make. In
the light of subsequent events what he
wrote in 1895 regarding the qualifications
of a Vice President seems almost like
| prophecy.

the last fiscal year In extending the dc

livery OF mail into rural communities.
Had this expenditure been eliminated, in
stead Of a deficit there would have been
a surplus. Does anyone believe that the
surplus would have been desirable at
such a cost? Is there anyone who doubts
that the S12,OOO.0 900 expended for rural
delivery will breed other millions, which.
although not directly discoverable in pos
tai receipts, are one the less subject to
entry on the credit side of the great pub
lie ledger! The rural delivery is so bene-
tcent that the only wonder is it was not
established long ago. 1t is not likely that
our Democratic friends will use this
particular feather in the Republican cap
as a target in the campaign"

Official Testimony.

The report of the Interstate Commerce
Commission for 1902 showed the total
number Of railroad employees in the Uni
ted States to be 1,1S9.315. The report
saws: "As compared with the statement
for 1901 this shows az increase Of 49,
Jag. The return Of prosperity in rail-
way transportation occurred about the
beginning Of the year 1893 (the second
wear of the Mckinley administration.
The number of men employed on June
80. 1897, was S23,476, showing an in
crease in railway employees during the
mast Eve years Of 365, S39." This testi-
mony as to the effects Of Republican
administration is official.

LEST WE FORGET.

People who rule this land, beware,
Look to the ways in which We go,
For willy men have spread a snare,
Have digged a pit and left it So
Panics Of yore remind us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget.
The clamor and the din is on,
The battle RACES far and near,
The terror Of hard times is gone
Ye dare not let it reappear-
Panics Of yore remind us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget.
Far are the days Of ninety-three,
Dimly their hideous shadows loom,
But let their grim-taught lesson be
Guards to keep us from new doom
Panics Of yore remind us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget.
If drunk with high success to-day
We boast and do not fear defeat.
Let some grim threat of yesterday
Debar us from a dire retreat
Panics Of yore remind US yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget.

Hon. Thomas Taggart was chairman
Of the Democratic State Central Com
nittee of Indiana in 1899 and 1894. In,
the first year the Democrats barely es-
capped defeat after having carried the
State in 1890 by nearly 10000. and in
1894 the Republicans carried the State
by nearly $1,000 majority. +,
Mr.. Tagsart was the Indiana member
OF the Democratic national committee in

PROSPERITY AND POLITuca
Why Should Anyone Desire q Change
of Exciting Conditions?

When Mr.. Mckinley was first elected
President in 1896 the country was in the
midst of an industrial panic. Business
was depressed, trade was paralyzed and
confidence was destroyed. This was thu
result Of four years of Democratic rule.
The election of Mckinley was followed
ty an immediate revival of trade, which
continued throughout his administration
md to the present time.
Our foreign trade increased enormous
IS during Mr.. McKinley's administration.
In 1899 We sold foreign nations $1.227,-
443. 425 worth Of American products and
in return bought only 5000, OO7 1888, or a
balance of trade in our favor OF $751;
356,O37; for the fiscal year ending June
80. 1898, we sold foreign nations $1,231,-
329. 1850 worth of products, and in return
only $616,2O5, l59, a balance OF
trade in our favor of $615. 100000. The
total balance of trade in our favor during
the W years was 81, 145, 600, 900.
Compare this with the last two years
of Cleveland's administration under the
act Of 1894. During those two
years the balance of trade in our favor
vas only $2S7 900. OOO, as against ST.
l43. 100000 during the last two years Of
