OPPOSITION TO ROOSEVELT

"There is already enough eyi-

that the Republican managers in
Philadelphia are not in harmony
with President RooseVelt's poll

up in defiance of the law, and he

his party who continue to dis

it comes that Senator Foraker
has thrown down the gauntlet in
the face of the President.
"With no idea Of being q can

Theodore Roosevelt is merely
seeking to aid, SO far ashe can,
in the naming Of a candidate
who will be a man with high
ideals, an honest man, and one
who believes that the Republican
party has yet great work to do.
That is why the opposition to
Roosevelt and his policies is now
being generated. At the same
time outbursts like those in
Philadelphia and Ohio are not to
serve the purpose intended. The
rank and file of the Republican
party, while admitting that the
President occasionally makes
mistakes OF judgment, is yet in
harmony with his national peli-
cies and they intend to work un.

of a fitting candidate to stand as
the Presidents successor.

spring, the Philadelphia party

But when the Republican candi-

IL Didn't Work.

Three couple, husbands and wives,
of the highest repute, dined at New
York city hotel few evenings since,
and the host and his wife directed
that the coffee be sent to their rooms.
This was DONE and the waiter, calling
later for the cups, saucers and spoons,
found that three of the spoons were
missing. He reported the matter to
the manager, who quickly made a de.
mand for the return of the three
spoons. The host and hostess were
greatly embarrassed, and you may i'm.
agine the feelings Of their guests, but
the manager was obdurate. A little
search disclosed the missing spoons
beneath the table. The host and host
esq on the following day protested in
vigorous terms to the owners of the
hotel, and got this reply:
Sorry, indeed, very sorry you were
embarrassed, but we stand by our
manager. We don't dispute your word,

the hotel than crticise him. He knows

morning, says the Kansas City Times.
1t was raining In torrents. They
were beyond the city limits when the
sleepy horses drew the wagon to the
side OF the street into a rut and it
toppled over. The hampers, baskets,
kegs, and merry party were piled into
a heap without injury to anything ex-
cept few pies and sandwiches. The
horses stopped and the merry party
held a council to determine how to
right the overturned vehicle.
Just then the good samaritan ap-
peared. He lived across the street
