Roosevelt Stronger Than Ever.


President Roosevelt's popularity is
not waning as some would have the
public believe. These designing
critics, and there are several, would
have the American people believe
him not the man of favor with the
people he was formerly, but they
ought to know better. Indeed, they
do know better and venture not,
when their own election is at stake,
to discount him and his administra-
ton, They fear such an undertake
ing. as the peoples confidence in the
great American President demands
of those asking the SURFACES OF the
people their support OF the Presi-
dents policies. Along the line of
his strength as President and leader
of the people the Washington Post,
an Independent newspaper. perth
nently sizes up how he is strong, by
editorially speaking on this subject
as follows:
Those ready critics of the Presi-
dent who think they perceive de-
cline in his popularity, and who are
even ready to accuse him of lean
ing toward tyranny in his efforts to
correct great corporate abuses, over
look the feet that he has personified
the popular demand for these re-
forms and has done more than any
other man or agency to bring them
about. He has stirred the people to
an active realization of their rights
and powers and has shown them
that struggle to bring corporations
to account need not be made in vain.
The great corporate, organized
wealth of the country has been
taught lesson by President Roose-
welt that it will never forget. 1t is
not the arrogant tyrant that 1t once
presumed to be. 1t has been brought
to terms. 1t is willing to treat for
cessation of hostilities.
The great fact stands to the credit
of President Roosevelt and nothing
can deprive him of 1t. His critics
have mistaken impulsive speech for
reckless action. They confound SUI
perb courage and fidelity to public
trust with a disposition to tyrannize
and usurp authority. It might be
better. of course. that nothing un-
studied should ever be uttered by
the President. But 1t is better that
he should give evidence of honest In
dignation than that he should be
lacking in the Indispensable qualities
which serve the people so well in
their fight against corporate en-
croachment. The people have learn
ed long ago that the President is
sound to the core on this. most vital
of questions and that his acts speak
louder than his words. They trust
him implicitly. because they have
tested him. Others have failed, for
one reason or another. but Theo-
dore Roosevelt, whatever his i'm
projections. has not failed. For
this reason he holds a place in the
confidence of the people which can
not be shaken.
The talk of waning popular"
and tyranny" as applied to Presi-
dent Roosevelt, is pure rubbish.
He stands supreme among Ameri-
cans as a champion of popular
rights. The only tyranny manifest
in this country was that of the cor
porate influences, which are making
the discovery that they have found
their master.

Postal Bill Unfair.

The report of the postal commit
tee consisting of Senators Penrose,
Carter and Clay and Representatives
Qyerstreet, Gardner and Moon and
the accompanying bill regulating
second-class mail matter which they
recommended for passage are of SO
extraordinary a character as to de-
mand the immediate and urgent at
tention of all engaged in the publish
ing business.
The proposed changes are uni
formly burdensome and harrassing
and are avowedly hostile to the de-
yelopment and extention Of newspa-
pers and other periodicals. For this
reason they would and should arouse
the proper antagonism of publishers,
but the grave menace 1t could
be no graver-is found in the funda-
mental argument of which the bill
Is based.
The entire theory of the report is
that the department, the expansion,
the improvement of newspapers and
other periodicals is reprehensive and
should and must be curbed by law
Throughout the report are argu-
ments that the press of the country
is furnishing its readers more than
is necessary or proper. and the bill
frankly and drastically proceeds to
restrain this tendency of publishers
to be fair and liberal with subscrib-
ers.
The bill sets up in the postoffice
department an odious censorship,
and an uncomfortable right of inquisi-
tion.
1t is seriously proposed to put
into law the ideas Of individual SEN
ators and representatives. their ideas
OF how newspapers should be edited
and to outlaw those which do not
meet their views, what might other
wise be regarded as pure impo-
tence becomes an attack on the es-
sential liberty of the press. II fic-
ton and magazine matter in news
papers can be put under ban why not
editorial criticism or cartoons?
Hitherto the theory Of our govern
nent has been that free, untram-
meled and most widely circulated
newspaper and periodical press con-
stitnted and best guarantee Of that
Intelligence which is indispensable to
self-governing people. To this end
special advantages in cheap postage
have been designedIy accorded, the
benefits being instantly absorbed by
the subscribers.
1t is now proposed to make rad
zeal change in this policy. Avowedly
basing its action upon the course of
procedure In foreign countries
where a policy of repression and re-
striction as to the newspapers has
always obtained, the commission con-
cludes that the modern American
newspaper has become too greatly
expanded and 1t offers bill which
not alone stops further expansion
but cuts of many of the existing and
well-recognized features of the news
paper and periodical press.
system of inquisition is insti-
tinted under which all that ordinary
and proper privacy which is enjoy
ed by every other line Of business is
forbidden to the newspaper publish
ers. Instead. the publisher is re-
quired to make a sworn statement
OF any information respecting his
publication which the postmaster
general may prescribe. It seems
clear that the American newspaper
and magazine of today have justified
in a most striking manner the wis
dom of the paper OF the encourage
ment and that American publishers
have no cause for shame in any COM

MOSSMAN'S MISTAKE.

We don't know whether God, man
or the devil planted race prejudice in
the heart of humanity. We don't
know whether one or all are respon-
siblc for the fact that men seeking to
sway the action of their fellows APP
peal to race feeling.
In the estimation of this paper,
race prejudice is a terrible thing. and
does more injury to humanity than
can ever be COunteracted by what
good may come from the preservation
of u pure species.
There was more or less of playing
on race prejudice on the part of ora
tors who appeared in public on Sat
urday night at Aala. Perhaps the as
sertion attracting the most attention
was that of Mr.. Mossman. lie is quot
cd as saying that the scientists say
the cOntagion of consumption is more
to be feared than that of leprosy.
Victims Of the latter disease are segre-
gated because good number are Ha-
waiians, but those suffering from con-
sumption are not segregated because
they are mostly "haoles."
Mr.. Mossman is absolutely correct
in his quotations from the decision of
the scientists. He is absolutely
wrong in the racial twist given to his
concluding remarks.
We believe the record will show
that cOnsumptiOn-Ur tuberculosis, as
II is given in the statistical reports, -
mas killed on larger proportion of
HawGlians than Of haOles, and If seq
rrgation for consumption were prac-
tised in these Islands today it might
strike very hard in Hawaiian homes.
The especial ignorance regarding
the relative dangers of leprosy con-
tugiOn go farther back in the history
OF man than the coming of Christ and
the persecution of the Jews. 1t Is as
far removed from the line Of "haole'
and Hawaiian cleavage as the reli-
siun that Christ preached Is distant
from an intention of being for but
one race of people. II Is the scien-
'fc study carried on by the "haole"
that has removed many of the fright
full hardships to which those afflicted
with lcprOsy were ut one time sub
iected. The scientific work of the
"haole" has brought about better
understanding of the dangers of con-

of a higher plane of business action,

CONSUL REFUSED
HELpT0 SAILORS
Wrecked Crew of Carrie
and Annie Are
Disguised

II would seem, from the story tod
by the shipwrecked crew Of the whal-
ing schooner Carrie and Annie. who
passed through here on the Asia yes
terday, that the American Consul at
Vladivostok will be strictly up against
something 10 The near future.
The Carrie and Annie sailed from
San FRANCISCO on the 2Gth Of March
last, bound for the whaling grounds
up in the Straits. This little schooner,
which Is only 80 tons register, called
at this port for a few days on her way
across the Pacific and this incident of
itself makes the story or more inter-
est than usual.
First Mate Bertoncini states that the
trip across vas without incident and
one kilipg mad been made and they
eventually dropped anchor in small
bay on Shantarsld island. They were
forced to come to anchor as there was
a dead calm, At midnight series OF
heavy squalls came up. Every effort
vas made to get Off the shore but
, without avail and the next morning
they were piled up on the beach. The
vessel being caught between two rocky
points, soon pounded herself to pieces.
| After a stop on the beach till Septem-
| her II, they were picked up by the
! Russian transport Nitzun and taken
20 Vladivostok, where they most nat
iurally expected to be assisted by the
| American Consul, Nicholas Gray.
! Mate BCrtOnCini says:
1.-THE Consul stated that he had no
place to put us in and that he would
not care for us. Being unacquainted
with the Russian language, | had II
good deal of trouble with the legal
| proceedings which were necessary, and
| In this and other matters which had
| to be looked after, neither | nor Cap
cain Thomas received any help what
ever from the representative of the
| American government"
The mate speaks in the highest
terms of their treatment by the Rus
slams, both on the transport and in
The town Of Vladivostok. "The fact
| that we were from the United States
added immensely to our popularity
lamong the Russians" added the Mate.
According to stories by the crew OF
the Carrie and Annie they were all but
ignored by the American consul at the
Russian city.

The Primitive Violin.

In its primitive form the violin wns 6 direct development of the Tyre and monochord-the strings from the for. mer and the elongated box, with its sound holes, finger board and movable bridge. from the latter. The history of the violin began with the invention of the bow some time before the thir. teenth century. when the yoile, or yielle. used by the troubadours. made its ap- pearance. This instrument underwent many changes until the middle of the sixteenth century. when the true violin model appeared. The primitive violin had little or no contour It was not until the thirteenth century that the yielle was scooped out at the waist
 The corner blocks were added in the fifteenth century and are attributed to Germany. For nearly a century the sound holes were shifted all over the instrument before they were cut in their proper place and the bridge fixed between them.-CircIe Magazine

I think my place is behind the door, in a dark corner, with Sister Jones'" And he wondered why the meeting was convulsed with the laughter of those who came to pray.

Never use a whisk broom to clean q hat, either stiff or soft, particularly a soft hat as 1t gradually removes the fine surface originally on the hat.
