lie settled the anthracite coal strike
which for half year had lemoralized
the industries of the country.
When Great Britain. Germany and
Italy were attacking Venezuela he in
dncrh them to desist. thus preserving the
invioiabiity Of the Monroe doctrine
The three commissioners appointed by
him to discuss the Alaskan boundary
question gained n complete victory for
the American contention.
The Cuban reciprocity treaty, which
had been defeated by one Congress, was
passed in subsequent special session,
because Roosevelt insisted.
BY the creation of bureau of COM
mercc and labor. for which his intlu-
ence Is solely responsible, the President
has taken the first definite steps toward
the solution of the trust problem. Light
will be let in OH the management Of the
trusts. Then, when their evils are defn-
itey, not vaguely, ascertaincd a proper
corrective can be applied.
The door to China's trade has been
kept wide open to our trade.
But the most enduring benefit the
President has brought to the country has
been the assurance that the Panama
canal would be finished. In the isthman
imbroglio the President acted always
within the treaty rights of this nation:
his official conduct was cminently cor
rect. But were it not for his exceptional
adroitness and vigor during the crisis the
prospect of the interoceanic canal would
still be years in the future. For nearly
400 years man has dreamed Of piercing
the American isrhmns. But it remained
for President Roosevelt to bring those
dreams within sight of realization. His
tory will record his connection with the
Panama canal as the most momentous
feature of his first term.
Thus Theodore Roosevelt has been an
upright and painstaking, vigorous and
useful, honest and patriotic President.
1t seems both wiser and fairer for the
American people to rc-elect him rather
than to elevate i'll his place an untriel
Jurist. who, however exemplary his per-
sonal character, has had practically no
experience whatsoever to fit him for the
most difficult position in the world.

YOUNG DEMOCRATS
Those Who Voted for Mckinley Prob
ably Will Support Roosevelt.

(hansas City Star. independently
some allowances must be made of
course. for the optimistic representations
OF politicians at the approach of every
great election. 1t is part of the game
to manifest confidence, even if the policy
of claiming everything has been dis
credited by the best political managers.
But the declaration that. according TO
more or less careful canvasses those
young Democrats who boted Bryan and
voted for Mckinley will remain in the
Republican party, is quite plausible
Those old Democrats in whom the partv
spirit is still strong in spite of the trying
alignment of the Democracy four and
eight years ago. may be expected to re-
turn to the fold pretty generally this
year; but there is nothing except parti-
san feeling to draw them, and this does
not exist to any great extent among the
younger generation. especially among
those who have already broken over the
lines to vote for Republican Presi
dent.
Indeed, President Roosevelt appeals
with especial force to the young men OF
the nation. Considering his achieve
ments, he is still young man himself
He is in intimate sympathy with the
spirit of early manhood. He is vigorous
III mind and body, and is active in both
lie is strongly progressive. His leader
ship has been inspiring to all classes
but more especially to those in whom
ambition is assertive His policies an
peal forcefully to those who would make
stronger and a better nation. He stands
for those reforms that are regarded as
essential to the perpetuity of personal
liberty and civic righteousness.
The belief that President Roosevelt in
his splendid fulfllment or an obligation
assumed as result of accident. has earn
ell an election at the hands of the people
he has served, is especially strong in the
hearts of the younger generation of yot.

nominated two of the leading farmers of
the State as Railroad Commissioners.

ticket are lawyers, while the Republicans
only recognized the lawyers in the NOM

A clustering King.

OF King George ". Thomas Cree
vey, who lived in the early part of the
nineteenth century, tells this story:
The king had appointed the bishop
of Winchester to administer to him the
sacrament on one of the Sundays about
Easter. The bishop was not punctual
to his time, and when he arrived the
king, in a great passion at having been
kept waiting, abused and even swore
at him in the most indecent manner. on
which the bishop very coolly said he
must be permitted to withdraw, as he
perceived his majesty was not then in
a fit state of mind to receive the sacra-
ment, and should be ready to attend on
some future day, when he hoped to find
his majesty In better state of prepa-
ration.

CELESTIAL REFRESHMENTS
Funny Little Restaurants In the
Chinese Empire.

Restaurants tAC
Chinese Empire.
Places of rest and refreshment are
commonly to be found in China at the
hating stations on the highways in
the interior or at the villages on the
banks of the great rivers of China.
They frequently take the form of Il
small mud hut, having a dark interior
filed with smoke. tea tables, forms and
an oven, where cook is kept busy
baking tea bread and frying buildings
for the entertainment of the customers,
whose favorite beverage is tea, al
though when times are good and the
weather cold they indulge in something
stronger, which often inebriates and
that at a very cheap rate. In the dark
est corner there are a row of glazed
earthenware jars containing a kind of
Chinese whisky, of which a thirsty
carter may have skin full for some
thing considerably under a penny,
when he will go quietly to sleep on
the shaft of his cart, and his pony or
mule, being used to it, will take him
home
In addition to these conveniences
there is an ingenious little furnace in
front, having a long f1ue, through which
the flame is driven by an air pump,
and a row of hot water kettles, gradual
~ increasing in size to suit the heat
of the tongue of flame that passes up
the 6ue beneath, so that they may all
be kept boiling. The hot water is sold
to passersby. who usually carry with
them their teapot and tea, so that they
NAV have cup at every station This
custom of carrying ones own tea is so
common that it is difficult to procure a
cup of tea in any of the restaurants, as
they do not keep it and do not care to
go out of their way to buy it for you.
Although the plant may be growing all
round and at ones very feet, it is next
to impossible to get a cup that for
eigner would consider worth drinking,
and as to using milk and sugar, the
Chinese look upon the practice as a
barbarous device of the foreign DEVIL
Golden Penny.
