The Parts of The Sunday Star.

A single word of explanation to the read
ers of The Sunday Star may save some un-
certainty and perhaps annoyance. the
paper will be regularly issued in several
parts, the number varying somewhat, &C
cording to the pressure of reading and ad-
yertising matter. But whatever the num-
Der of parts, The Sunday Magazine will
always be Part Three, and Is so marked.
On the first page of Part One will be found
a memorandum in large type stating the
whole number Of parts and pages the num-
Der of pages not including those In the
magazine section. Thus. IL this front-page
announcement calls for five parts, there
will be only four of full size. the magazine
completing the tally. Last Sunday there
was question I'm the minds Of few read
ers lest they had not received the full Star,
when they had chanced to overlook the fact
that the magazine represented Part Three,
which they thought to be missing. With
this point clearly understood there need be
no doubt in any mind unless there Is an
actual shortage in the complement of parts
in which case the disappointed reader will
confer favor upon The Star by promptly
notifying this Office of the fact

terms which could not have been palmer.
and which the country received at their
true value. Mr.. Roosevelt took himself en-
tirely out of all calculations for 1908.
But the World seems to suggest con-
test on the Presidents part for another
nomination. 1t speaks of his control of the
organization. and of the strength he will
have with the southern delegates. The or
ganization is advised of Mr.. Roosevelt's
November deliverance. and many of its
members, guiding by it, are openly taking
sides in the booms that have been
launched, or are In preparation. AS for
the southern delegates. they will represent
a section certain to support the democratic
nominee at the polls. no matter what his
name or platform. If the republicans permit
southern delegates to dictate their nomina-
ton next time they will be much more I'M
wise than they have the reputa ton of be-
Ing.
The World. is at fault on two points. 1t
sets aside the Presidents express state
ment to his attitude toward the next
nomination, and 1t fails fully to apply to
the situation its concession that it's party
is hopelessly divided If that describes the
condition of the democracy, any good re-
in 1908 Why draft Mr.. Roosevelt as
against his wish and purpose to retire?
This Roosevelt BOOM coming as it does
from a source that has always opposed
him in city, state and national contests,
needs key. After matters clear up bit
maybe the World will supply 1t.

All Fools.

This is the day of All Fools, when
FRANKS are played and pitfalls yawn for
the unwary. 1t is a merry time for the
children. with harmless jokes and follies,
which delight them without causing pain
to others. But there are some who take
advantage of the first of April to give
pain even to their best friends and cause
them anxiety and perhaps physical dis
tress. There is no retribution severe
enough for the maliciots practical joker.
All Fools day grants him no license.
The harmless trick such as the stuffed
wallet, or the coin on string, or the
postage stamp stuck fast to the walk, or
the joking letter, or even the April fool
candy'-when it is not nauseous in Its
false filling-these are some of the tri-
fling maneuvers of the first of April
which harm no one and add to the gaiety
of society. They provoke laughter. and
we need more of that in these serious
DAYS of work.
But the brick laden hat or box, which
Injuries the foot of the one who obeys an
instructive impulse to kick 1t, the string
tied across the walk to tip off hats or
trip UP pedestrians, the sickening COM
pounds counterfeiting sweets. the hbbing
anonymous letter - these are senseless
brutal ways of marking an ancient festi-
val of folly.
In the olden time the usual prank con-
sisted in sending a person on a fools er-
rand. dispatching him across country or
town with message or request which
provoked laughter and ridicule. Nova
days the telephone plays its part In this
form of foolery, and many man has to-
day been embarrassed by calling up
strangers or unusual places and giving
preposterous messages Whlch nave
ELECTED merriment or anger.
The old-time spirit of All Fools day mas
passed with the old conditions OF lie.
But there Is room now for modern SUD-
stitutes, and there is benefit in little
relaxation. The world should never grow
too busy to indulge in harmless run.

Still Booming Roosevelt.

The New York World sticks to 1t, as wit
ness:
ITO its many valued contemporaries and
to the political oracles OF both parties the
World presents its compliments and renews
its prediction that Theodore Roosevelt will
he renominated for President of the United
Sta tes in l30S-and elected.
THE World is well aware that I'm the
bubbling enthusiasm of an unprecedented
victory Mr.. Roosevelt said that he would
not again be candidate. 1t Is also well
aware that Mr.. Roosevelts first impulses
are frequently reversed by his sober second
thought.
Mr.. Roosevelt controls the republican or
ganization. The southern delegates will
favor his denomination. The far west will
be- wildly enthusiastic for him. In New
York and Pennsylvania the machine will be
for him. Favored sons may have friends
In the next national convention, but Theo-
dore Roosevelt will be the real choice of
the delegates.
''He will be renominated and his election
will follow as a matter of course What
candidate OF a hopelessly divided demo-
cratic party would stand one chance In a
million against Theodore ROOSEVELT
If the next republican national convention
should declare with one voice and with en-
thusiasm for Mr.. Roosevelt he would be
placed in an embarrassing position con-
hict would ensue between his duty to his
party and HIS duty to himself For in his
statement made In November he not only
declared that he would not be candidate

Candidates and Conventions.
5 the Philadelphia Press


Indianapolis wants the republican ma
tionaI convention three years hence, and
wants to furnish the candidate, too Inc
rest of what 1t wants will come out IN
time"
Maybe It wants the democratic national
convention also. Why rot? Where Is MI

more active in the towns behalf than he is?
They may not be able to influence the Sit
uation as respects the candidates, but the
two chairmen should prove great boomers

sonable prices for visitors during conven-

promises about good entertainment and
moderate rates for people engaged in NOM
mating a candidate for President of the
United States is CERTAIN of boundless praise
and an enviable Immortality.
These wide-awake Hoosiers are going on
the proposition that the next republican
national convention will he held on that
side of the Allegheny mountains. And so
they ask themselves, why not Indianapolis
as the place? The candidates are all from
that side of the high divide. Now and
then the name of Mr.. Root Is mentioned.

to national leadership, but the men whose
names lead in all of the Invest presidential
speculation reside across the mountain line.
Mr. Fairchld, Mr.. Foraker, Judge Taft, Mr..
Spooner Mr.. Lafollette and Gov. Deneen
are all called western as distinguished from
eastern men. And where the candidates
are there should the convention be also.
But there are other good towns out that
way besides Indianapolis. Cincinnati is
stirring place and Louisville has many at
fractions. Milwaukee would play host very
well, and as Minneapolis has once been
honored st. Paul has claims to considera-
ton. The republicans have excellent
field to choose from, with Chicago always
in reserve In case the smaller fry destroy
one another.
1t is little early for this speculation,
but as men are being doomed why not
towns? Everything indicates that every
body is awake, and that 1908 is going to
be a year to remember. Indianapolis Is

Indemnity.

1t Is surprising to find so many who as
sent to Russia's statement that peace can
not be concluded upon grounds that include
an indemnity. 1t is well enough for the
cars government to put the proposition
forward as a safeguard against excessive
terms. but there appears to be feeling
throughout Europe that Japan's- insistence
upon money payment would block all ne
