AN INSULT TO ROOSEVELT

VATE doubt very much whether
w President Roosevelt feels COM
plimented at the way the Philadelphia
gang is taking liberties with his name
and his picture. The gang organ almost
every day represents the President as
believer in reform within the party.
and with this mention is Joined the
names Of discreditad. dlsreputable
criminal gang.
Possibly in general the President be-
lieves in reform within the PARTY. but
there is no possibility OF reform when
The very men who have made the
organization criminal are trusted to
carry ou, the reform.
The very men who have made the
Philadelphia organization byword
and a reproach are running this cam
paign and are slandering the President
by dragging in his name on every pos
sible occasion.
II would not surprise us greatly 10
hear the President speak his senti-
ments.
Invariably when in local campaigns
there is much waving OF the flag. and
much mention of National heroes, there
Is state OF affairs at home from
which it is necessary to divert atten-
ton.

popular last winter. viii he replaced
by tailor-made coats. The coats are
especially designed to protect the
dogs chest while I'm the carriage or
motor car"
The dogs handkerchief, which used
TO be carried in "A pocket in the coat
is now properly carried In purse at
the end Of the leash.
Perfumes are simpler" this year.
The lady merely perfumes her dog
with the same scent she herself uses.
I'm the matter OF dog jewelry there
lis little to report" In some cases
gold bracelets set with gems are worn
lon the fore paws, and jewelled col
lars. bearing the owners crests-
when there are crests-still remain
stylish.
Automobile costumes for dogs, in
cluding goggles. very stylish, can be
had as low as $50.
A thoughtful lady. Mrs. White
Pearce has opened a seaside estab-
iishment for dogs whose delicate con-
stitutions are not equal TO the con-
tinuous strain OF London season.
OF course many fashionable woman
has children that require some care,
but now that they are at school again,
full attention may be given to doggie
that he may assume that station to
which the designs heavens and his

An Object Lesson.

From the Chicago lnter-Ocean.
One manufacturing company IN the
Unlted States paid out s2.OO0.0OO in
wages In one day last week. The pay
roll in the several mills of the company
was tho largest in the history Of the
steel Industry in America. In this light
alone the incident had great signifc-
ance for the Industrial workers OF this
country. IL had as great significance
for the country itself. The heavy pay
ment OF wages by one large establish
ment Is an indication Of what is being
done IN other establishments. II means
that labor has full employment al good
wages; that peace In the Orient. tariff
made by Russia. large
orders placed by Japan and prospect Of
heavy orders from China assure con-
tinued and Increased activity In one
OF our most important Industries. This
I'm itself is a guarantee Of continued
prosperity.
Viewed in another light this heavy
payment OF wages was an object lesson
to the American people. All amounts
under $50 were paid I'm gold Large
were paid in gold at the option
OF the payee. There was no question
as to the value OF every dollar received
by the thousands OF workingmen.
Would this have been the case If the
Republican party had been defeated i'm
1896 and 1900? Every one knows that
under the free silver policy wages
would not have been paid In gold. And
yet what happened in one establish
ment last week happens every payday
I'm Chicago and other business centres.
Every salaiied man. every wage Garner
receives his earnings in money as good
as gold or In gold coin II he asks for
IT. This is tangible. everyday illus
tration OF Republican policy.
