With more than eighteen months L.
spare, foolish persons are talking
with increasing volubility of thiii
term for President Roosevelt. New
papers and magazines that are not
yellow have taken up this subject.
year from now IL may become the
burning issue among the unthinkina
division that thinks but lightly. The
Republican politician in need of a job
will be clamorous. To him it would
be an easy route to the trough.
Regarding what Theodore Roosc-
welt will do there need be no second
question. He loves too well the re-
public to do otherwise than what he
announced two years ago.
Is there any ground for even con-
sidcring n thord term for the presi-
dent? To our way of thinking tn"
bare mention of the matter is more
or less Of an insult to the whole pco-
rIc.. This is not and never should bc
one-man nation. A Cromwell
should be the last resort.
President Roosevelt has dom
much. We believe in him and are
proud of him; and, for the very ret
son that we honor him we would b,
the very last to hint at n third term.
Among his many achievements the
first and greatest are his acts and
prcachments against patcrnalism.
Day In and day ont he
has spoken for the individual. In
every speech made by him in the last
half dozen years he has acclaimed
individualism.. And here cometh his
would be admirers or worshipers and
insist that he shall deny everything
and turn these United States into 4
sort of protectoratc with himself a.
Lord High Protector! How ridicu-
Ions: how inconsistent!
II this republic cannot get along
without Mr.. Roosevelt at the White
House IL had better begin all over
again, for IL has been travelling in
the wrong direction all these years.
The Republican party has in its
ranks n dozen citizens of distinction
/ ana nlhnN more WHO hft Whiting lIftiI
opportunities, 10 take the place of
President Roosevelt when he retires
10 private life. They will have him
10 look to. They will have his ad-
ministration as guides. He has taught
the nation much; his lessons will not
die with his term of office. The good
work instituted by him must be
carried through; and the people
themselves will see that the Roosc-
Welt policies shall prevail. Woe be-
! tide the man who falls back into the
rut!
In the yeaio TO come, should real
danger threaten the republic, which
heaven forbid, Mr.. Roosevelt will be
nigh. As private citizen his in
fiuence must be reckoned with. He
will be Mt hand to warn against pa
terialism in government and the short
road to the millennium. But "third
term talk should cease.-Denver

ELKS SOCIAL
Over Two Hundred People Present
Last Night-An Evening of
True Pleasure-Elegant
Luncheon Served.

The social last night by the Elks
at their hall, in the Currie Block, was
a success. as all entertainments have
been, since the lodge was first lnsti-
tuted.
1t seems to be second nature with
the Elks of this or any other city to
be splendid entertainers. 1t is expect
ed of them and they rarely funk in
the performance of that attribute of
good fellowship
The social last night was designed
to be entirely an informal affair.
There was no fixed program. that
hedged around the enjoyments of the
evening. but all were expected invol-
unfairly to have a good time and in
itiate ther own manner of entertain
ing.
The club rooms were thrown open
and here the ladies were first receiv-
ed, the banqueting tables being
spread in the main hall of the lodge.
Informal conversation. music etc.
occupied the time of the guests. un-
til the call to gather about the festive
board. a departure in serving the
luncheon was inaugurated last night.
Instead of waiting until the midnight
hour to serve refreshments the guests
were invited to partake of the splen-
did menu provided for the occasion
promptly at nine o'clock.
Iage fhon tv,.n hppdra1 1a,lf,o
and gentlemen were seated at the
tables. These included the wives,
sweethearts, daughters and invited
guests of the organization. A num-
Der of well known Elks assisted in
serving the guests at the tables.
Following the luncheon an Inn

joyed Miss Ethel Adams, Miss Mary

style instrumental solos and Miss

hall for the luncheon. The drawing
took place immeditely following the
musical program and Mrs. James A
Munson was the holder of the lucky
number. 1t was a very beautiful and
modern chocolate set.
A trio of colored instrumentalists
had been secured by the committee
in charge and they discoursed very
lively and delightful music during
the serving of and after the banquet

The chairman of the committee for
the social session was Mr.. Fred New

acted respectively as masters of cere-

had the misfortune to be in San Fran.
cisco at the time OF the earthquake and
fire.
Mr.. Selig at last succeeded in leaving
the city and arrived in Astoria last
Saturday night exhausted and worn
from his terrible experience.
He tells a graphic story of what he
went through, the sights he saw, and
the awful sufferings which almost eve
ryone in the stricken city, endured.
Il was asleep in the house of my
brother. Rabbi W. S. Levy at 1880 Ell
lis street he said when the earthquake
came. "The first thing | knew | was
thrown out onto the floor by the viol.
ent tossing of the bed, and thoroughly
awakened by the crash OF the chimny,
which fell clear through the house, and
the overturning of the piano in the room
below me- / realized what had happen.
ed in a moment, and with the rest of
those in the house ran into the street
without waiting to dress.
"The sight that met us was both
weird and terrifying. Thousands Of men
women and children, filled the thoro-
ughfare. clothed only in their white
night clothes.
"Some were kneeling and praying,
others were crying in terror, while ming
led with the prayers and wailing Of
the women, could be heard the curses
of the men. For an hour or more re.
mained in the street. and then as the
temblor- had subsidized somewhat,
went back into the house and dressed.
"The fire had broke out along Market
street near the Emporium soon after the
quake, and before noon the fire depart
ments of Oakland and Sacramento, had
reached the city and We're helping to sub
due the flames. For time the efforts
of the fremen looked to be successful,
but about noon the water supply was to
tally cut off, and then the authorities
resOrted to dynamite. Soldiers were at
once stationed all over the city, and no
one was allowed to move about without
a pass. The soldiers impressed me in.

lieved from this dnty and given work
in the Red Cross hospital, where I
stayed until I left the city. Water and
food were very hard to obtain, and l
suffered a gread deal from the lack Of
them.

generosity of the American people who
have responded 50 nobly to the call
of the distressed in San Francisco.
