The action Of the United States Senate.
yesterday, in tabling Senator T,lman's S
resolution calling for a committee to in
vestigate the recent incident of the violent
expulsion Of a woman from the White
House, coupled with the attack made upon
the President by Senator Tllman in his
speech urging the adoption Of the resolu-
ton, is highly significant.
Under the circumstances. the assump-
tion is entirely reasonable that by this
action the Presidents friends in the
Senate believe the President has placed
himself in an absolutely inexcusable posi-
ton. Nobody wants to excuse him or
to attempt to excuse him. and so they
dismiss the unsavory subject upon the
plea that IL is one Of those cases so thor
oughly bad that "the least said the soonest
mended"
The contention that il is cowardly and
unmanly to criticize President Roosevelt
as man is not to be accepted as a dis
missal Of the subject with a lofty indifier-
ence that may be assumed TO attest its
insignihcance. II only emphasizes the
fact that Roosevelt, as a man. has placed
himself in a position that justifes both
ridicule and severe criticism, but that. in
the opinion Of his defenders. he must not
be so criticised because he is President Of
the United States. Is not such defence
pitiahle
Truly the Presidents friends in the
Senate have written "lchabod" after his
name. They "walk backward, with
averted face. to hide his shame"

A GOOD OFFICER.

There have been some sugges
tions in the papers lately connect
ing the name of the Assistant
Adjutant General, Colonel Harvey
Alexander, with the appointment
of Adjutant General to succeed
the present incumbent, General
Hannah. If Colonel Alexander
should be a candidate it would
please this paper greatly to see
him secure the appointment, but
we fear the Governor-elec is hay.
ing some very pressing demands
made upon him from other sources.
However, it seems to us that the
work accomplished by this gentle.
man as Assistant Adjutant would
weigh with considerable force in
determining upon a man for the
place. Colonel Alexander, of
course, was a friend of the Gov.
ernor, but when the nomination
was made he acted like true
Democrat and gave the nominee
his undivided support.
Through the help of the Assist
ant Adjutant, General Hannah
was able to accomplish a vast
amount of work which has been
demonstrated in the organization
and efficiency OF the State militia.
The details of the Office have been
largely in Mr.. Alexander's hands,
as those who are familier with the
facts know. These duties, of course,
naturally fall to the lot of an
officer in his position. How well
be has per form ed them is
we'll known to those who have
been in close relations with the
militia and present at the en-
campments. Efficient and atten-
tive officers have claims that are
hard to overcome and which
should always be rewarded with
full value.

WE NEED A MAN.

Speaking Of the enterprise and
achievements of a valued citizen
of this county, it is worthy Of re.
mark that it requires such men to
build and develop the country's re-
sources. This gentleman made a
success as a merchant, farmer,
stock raiser and newspaper man.
He was instrumental in the intro
duction of fine stock. He lead in
merchandising. He disseminated
improved methods of farming, and
last but not least he maintained q
news and agricultural paper, an
adjunct of the press which is the
greatest educator of the age.
Such men as this are those upon
whom our future depends. 1t is

clan, the money broker, nor
the gambler. The one builds up;
the other often destroys.
Grover Cleveland, after life
time in politics, at last reaching
the greatest position in the world,
when asked what vocation he pre-
ferred his son to follow, replied
that he would rather his boy grew
to be great architect, whose ge-

as the Brooklyn bridge, rather
than be President of the United
States. So it is, but the men who
reyolutionize the world of bust
