PREsiDxNr ROOSEVELT has in the
past done many fine things, bot
the finest thing he has ever done
vas to issue. after election. the
public declaration that he will
not. under any circumstances. be
. candidate for reelection. nor ac-
eeps > ncmination. Having sue
ceeded to the presidency. he did
not come strictly under the un
written prohibition against . third
term. and vanity might have
tempted weak msu to gain his
torical distinction by trying ios
another full term. This fine and
patriotic declaration puts psomps
and timely quietus on the Hsttes-
ing sycophAncy Of pol,ticians and
relieves the official future Of Mr.
Roosevelt from all suspicion Of
any desire but to serve his
country.

OrERo county will have to he re-
districted. The election precincts
will have TO be changed and made
smaller. Some OF the precincts
hlndled over 400 votes, and that
is too many. especially IN an elec-
tion like the last one, where there
were a great number OF scratched
ballots. The law contemplates
that there should be separate
precinct TO each $50 votes. The
total vote in OteTo county at the
last election was over $500, and
that would entitle us to twenty-five
precincts, instead OF nineteen as at
present.

"Today is a cold winter day

greater.

In spite of incessant attacks on the gov
eminent in Parliament during past weeks
and the difficulty of maintaining anything
like normal majorities. there is no rea-
son to believe that Premier Baifour has
any present intention of rendering his
resignation. nor. have the Liberal lead
ers at this moment any real desire to
attempt to force him to take this step.
The government is not seeking to cur
tail the session of Parliament and does
not expect to adjourn until late in Aug
ust. The attitude of the Liberal leaders
in the House of Commons in resisting the
retention of Mr.. Balfour in power. grows
out of their opposition to Lord Spencer,
the Liberal leader of the House CT Lords
who. in case the government resigns.
would naturally be selected to be the new
premier. Moreover. they do not wish at
the present time TO undertake the man
agement of some of the questions now
pending.
