The Lone Fisherman.

It is only one of the curiosities Of an
America national campaign the result
of which is foreordained, but it
arouses more than a slight degree of
interest. Where is the Lone Fisher
man, the man who has been twice
president of the United States? Where
is he, and what is he going to do be-
tween the present time and the Sth of
November?
What is he thinking abOut-this
Lone Fisherman, and what are his in
clinations? We are all interested in
him as we should be interested in any
ex-president of the United States, and
being interested, we have also a curl
osity. What about Cleveland? Is that
portly and forceful old gentleman going
to have anything to do with politics
this year or is he simply intent upon
the considera ton of the subject of
lines, bait and all that sort of thing
The impression seems to prevail, and
one apparently justified, that the sage
of Princeton is not much interested in
the sage of Esopus. The sage Of
Princeton has at least a certain cali
Der, and the two men do not fit.
STILL we all want to know what the
Lone Fisherman is. going to do.

Where Bullets Must Stop.

A series of interesting firing trials
was recently undertaken by the Swed-
ish government. The purpose of these
experiments was to examine the effect
of shooting against pasteboard. The
trials were conducted on the wharves
of the Swedish navy in Kariskrons,
and the target used was prepared one
of millboard, against which fire from
revOlvers, rifles, carbines and machine
guns was directed The pasteboard,
which was three inches thick, resisted
completely the bullets fired from the
small arms, but was perforated by the
prOjectileS from the machine guns
The experiments may be said to have
given very interesting results. Bullets
from the carbines used are able to pen
citrate wooden planks five inches in
thickness, but they could not pene-
trate the pasteboard which was only
three inches thick

Whv Change :?

Why should there be a change in
the national administration? What's
the matter with Roosevelt? Has any
thing gone wrong? Has it been neces-
sary to issue bonds to pay the running
expenses of the government? Is there
any money in the treasury? Has the
soup house asserted it's supremacy
since the palmy days of Grover? Has
Theodore Roosevelt betrayed any trust
reposed in him, or has he manifested
any symptoms of spinal affection? Has
the so-called Democratic party adj
vanced any assurance to the American
people that they are any more proficient
in the twentieth century thanthey were
in the nineteenth? Can they satisfy
the honest, industrious, producing citi-
zens of America that they seek for
anything but to again grasp the sur
plus and again empty the treasury as
they have on every previous oppor-
tunity?

A THING WELL DONE
A Record That Recommends Roosevelt te
the Voters.

A Record That Recommends Roosevelt to
the Voters.
The relations between capital and
labor in the United States are the ex-
istent conditions which affect the well
fare of many millions of people. The
relations between any administration
and the adjustment of these ques-
tons must necessarily be careful and
most delicate
What has happened in this relation
under the administration of President
Roosevelt? What happened and what
made the ultimate result in the gigan-
tic miners strike in Pennsylvania!
Who was it who devised, in a plain,
common-sense, American way, solu-
ton of the problem which affected the
welfare of hundreds of thousands? OF
course that is all, now, relatively, an
old story. The man who did this with
his common-sense was the present
candidate of the Republican party for
the presidency. He ventures upon
things, and he does them well from a
tra1ghtf0rWard, patrlOtlc point OF
view.
1t is not good thing to bear in mind
that the record of what Theodore
Roosevelt did in connection with the
Pennsylvania labor troubles is one Of
the greatest recommendations for his
election to the presidency? There was
a delicate situation-it was even O
question whether the president should
intervene or not. He. did intervene,
with wholesome manliness, and the re-
suit was for the good of great mass
of the people. Could there be better
campaign document than the plain
story Of what this man did in straight
ening out Of relations between capital
and labor in Pennsylvania?
