instead of Congressman Little for gov

RoosEvELT's POPULARITY.

A writer in a recent issue of Les
lies Weekly, discussing the secret
of Roosevelt's popularity explains it
as follows:
President Roosevelts popular
ity comes from the fact that he
keeps in touch with the common
people. Every address he dellV-
ers testifies to this fact. There
nay be nothing startling in what
he says, but it is the dominant
note of human sympathy con-
tanned that captivates all his
hearers. This characteristic was
strikingly illustrated on the occa-
sion of his recent visit to Wilkes
barre, Pa. So great was the
crush and the almost frenzied de-
sire to be near him. that many
were injured, and serious panic
was averted only by the prompt
action of the president himself.
His words were listened to with
an intense earnestness that must
have been very gratifying to the
speaker. From the standpoint
of oratory there was nothing re-
markable in President Roosevelts
speech But it bristled with
healthy, wholesome suggestions
that could be applied With profit
in the everyday life of those who
heard it. He went straight to
the level of their needs when he
told then: that love for work will
end all labor troubles, and that
sobriety and intelligent zeal are
tending to eliminate the woes of
those who toll
All that the writer here says is ur
doubtedly true. The president has

all of us are common people as wei
as uncommon people. and one of IL
is as good as another. if he behave!
the great mass of the people and eX
presses himself in phraseolocy which
they can understand and con preh"nd
The dominant note Of his utteranc@s
is human sympathy of The keenest
and nobleSt kind He is not an orator
in any accepted sense of the word, and
he seldom says anything remarkable,
or strikinsly original. The truths
which he speaks are trnths which We
save known from childhood. and his
delivery is, on he whole. rather COM
monplace. The writer above quoted
1as told a great deal of truth about
Mr.. Roosevelt, but in the quotation
given he has missed the principal
secret of his popularity.
Unquestionably, the true secret OF
the presidents which is
by no means confined within the ranks
OF his immediate political supporters
is to be found primarily and princi-
pally in his inherent sincerity of pur
pose, his known integrity and his de
pendability"
The people love the president be-
cause they feel that they can trust
him. They have an instructive feeling
that he Is worthy of the trust which
they ropse in him: that he is tn,

Iris was serious enough nov
"How do you know that such dan

He countered readily. Because l

said. II am the last man in the world
to alarm you needlessly. All l mean
to convey is that certain precautions
should be taken against a risk that Is
possible, not probable. No more"
She could not repress a shudder. The
sailor wanted to tell her that he would
defend her against a host of savageS
if he were endowed with many lives,
but he was perforce tongued tied. He
even reviled himself for having spo-
ken, but she saw the anguish In his
face. and her woman's heart acknowl
edged him as her protector, her shield.

Now, the strange feature of this ex>
traordinary and unexpected outburst
of pent up emotion was that the girl
pronounced his name with the slightly
emphasized accentuation of one who
knew 1t to be Il mere disguise. The
man was so taken aback by her dec

dent, though it did not escape him, was
smothered in n tumult of feeling.
He could not trust himself to speak.

PRIVATE COINAGE.

In This Country.

The history of the issue Of coins in
this country 10y private individuals and
companies would make Il very interest

North Carolina n mar named Bechtler
started a mint of his W there, which
was abolished by law In 1910. Hal
eagles, quarter eagles and II dollar
pieces issued by him were largely cir
culated in the south and west. Al
though of honest gold, they were about
~, per cent under value on an average.
About the same time Templeton Reid
coined gold In Georgia. He moved to
California in 1Si9 and minted eagles
| and twenty-five dollar pieces on n o II
siderable scale. Many companies and
| ~refneries In California and elsewhere
made Il business of striking gold coins
| during the same period. Naturally
there was Il great temptation to make
these coins under weight and of in,
ferior %finencss. The Mormons In Utah
issued eagles, half eagles and double
eagles which bore on the diverse IN
eye, with the legend, holiness to the
Lord"
Quantities of twenty-five cent ant
fifty cent gold pieces were likewise
manufactured at San Francisco, thu
former containing only about six cents
worth of the metal and the latte
twelve cents worth. Years ago a 10

OLDEST lNHABITANT OF
STATE DIES AT SAWTELLE
Long and Exemplary Career Ends
With One Hundred and
Seven Years
Special to The Herald.


SOLDIERS HOME, Feb. 3.-The
death of the oldest man in California
occurred yesterday in Sawtelle at the
residence of Andrew ]. Nudge, with
whom he had been living for many
years at Long Beach before removing
to Sawtelle three years ago.
William Wood, the decedent, was
born in Bedford Square, London Feb
ruary 4, 1898. At four years of age
his parents removed to Toronto, Can
ada. During the war of the rebellion
he lived in Kentucky, and tried to en-
list in the United States service but
was rejected on account of physical
debility. He came to California twen-
tytwo years ago, living at Pasadena
awhile, then going to Long Beach. He
was religious man of exemplary
habits, and never used tobacco or in
toxicating liquors. His mother died
at the age of 1O3, and a grandfather
lived to be 127 years of age.
Owing to the death last week of Mrs.
A. ]. Nudge, with whom he had lived
so long, he seemed to realize that his
best friend had gone, and grieved him
self to death on that account.

Business progresses steadily all
speculative excesses having been

negotiations now pending indicate that
the maximum of activity Is yet to
come. Some irregularity is reported
for the first month and was undount-
edly due to the exceptionally cold
weather.
Distribution of merchandise is once
more on liberal scale, traffic block

cases large clearance sales have been

controversies are threatened. Railway
earnings for January were IL per cent
larger than a year ago, and foreign
commerce at this point for last week
showed an increase of $970980 in ex-
ports and gain of s529,0S2 in imports.
Iron furnaces and steel mills operate
close to their full capacity and the
quarterly report of the leading concern
