Speaking of Oklahoma, it's newly
drafted constitution, it's men who were
chosen to perform this hard task, the
mistakes that were made, etc. An
Indiana paper concludes its article as
follows.
Oklahoma will come into the Union
with the most drastic prohibition law
ever embodied in constitution for the
government of men. 1t prohibits not
only the manufacture and sale of in
toxicating liquors, but does not allow
them to be brought into the state.
Oklahoma s interests are almost entire
ly agricultural, its citizens are mostly
farmers, and it is greatly to their
credit that they have decided to begin
their career under an organic law that
refuses to recognize the "divine right"
of the hitherto potential despot known
as King Alcohol.

was certainly mad. 1t was decep-

I've got room, now, by myself,
A room my very own;
1t has a door that l can shut
And there be all alone;
It has a shelf a closet too
A window just for me;
And hooks where l can keep my clothe
As neat as neat can be.
A lovely papers on the wall;
A rug is on the floor
If l had known how fine it was
I'd had room before.
l like to go there after school
Way off from everyone;
l felt-Well sort of scared at first
But now l think it's fun.
The voice of the folks downstairs
Seem faint and far away.
l hear the rain upon the roof
watch the birds at play
Oh yes it's often very still
At night there's not sound
But l let mother in of course
When bedtime comes around.

By general cor sent the present &C.
cupant of the White House is the most
interesting figure among the public
men of the world. In administrative
talent, executive ability, energy of
character, combined with rare judg-
ment and capacity for work, his equal
has not been seen in this age. In any
particular one of his traits it may be
possible to find a rival. There are
greater orators, better writer's, rulers
of equal force, men of similar suavity,
men as brave, men as honest. But in
the combination of qualities, the unit
ing together of many admirable traits
in one harmonious whole, what the
French call the "tout ensemble, " the
American President stands supreme.
History affords no parallel for his in
finite variety. Call the roll of the
Richelieus, the Cavours, the Talley-
rands. the Gladstones, the Bismarks,
and though they matched or rose above
him at many points, they still lacked
some of the ingredients which, in COM
bination, have given us this great
twentieth century reformer. Neither
Washington, nor Jefferson, nor Madf-
son, nor Lincoln, though his superiors
in power of thought, possessed his
ready resources and all around equip
ment. To find ruler of equal equi-
poise, it is necessary to cross the
modern world, pass through the middle
ages, back through the Roman rule,
over twenJy-four centuries to the peer
less Pericles.
The talent for leading men, whether
in the forum or the field, is the highest
of human attributes. 1t is vouchsafed
to but few of the children of men.
But this gift Roosevelt possesses in a
preeminent decree. He is born
leader, natural organizer. Intensely
democratic in his instincts, simple in
his tastes, pure in his private charac-
ter and wholesome in his domestic re-
lations this best product of the great
Republic is at once the most powerful
and popular of publicists. His ad-
ministration will go down to history
as the most brilliant in that long and
illustrious line known as the Amer
lean Presidents. Deed after deed,
achievement, strokes of worldwide
Importance, great things done in a
great way, scores Of long-neglected
abuses attacked with the dash of
Marat, powerful enemies of the public
veal assaulted in their pride of might
- such is the brief catalogue of
achievements that have delighted his
friends pleased the plain people and
forced from hatred itself a tribute of
admiration. Opposition pales before
him. Those whose professional bus
mess it is to criticise to find fault
admit that the charm of his personal
ity and the merit of his policies neutral
ize partisanism and disarm the chronic
reviler. For once, calumny itself
seems to have been silenced. -Ex-
change.
