A Whole Hoqqer.

Wnoie ro9ger.
United States Senator Bourne OF Ore
gon, who may be aptly described as
IA whole hog Roosevelt man because he
whoops it up for the president in and
out of season, has at last stumbled
on to an argument which he thinks
will catch the Republicans a-coming
ana a-going. and it Is the statement
that Roosevelt is the only Republican
who can beat Bryan In other words,
the Oregonian is using w. j. B. as a
bogy man with which to brighten the
Republican bread and butter brigade
into the way he wants them to go.
When the count is made of the actual
Pap suckers and of those who hope to
be pap suckers, 1t is a mighty host.
Sach talk as Bournes may tickle the
fancy of some folks, but it is likely to
give certain more or less intelligent
personages that w0t of bad case OF
mulligrubs. Among these are Mr.. Sec
rotary Taft, Senator Joseph Benton
Foraker, ex-Secretary Leslie M. Shaw,
Vice President Fairbanks and Uncle
Joe Cannon, to say nothing of Govern
or Hughes and several other statesmen
who have their lightning rods up. But
how can Senator Bourne be SO ever
lastingly certain that Colonel Roose-
welt can defeat Colonel Bryan? If no
other Republican can turn the trick,
as he asserts, how does he figure it out
that the president CAM The Repub-
lican bigwigs generally are opposed to
the presidents OF course IL he were
nominated they would vote for him to
keep their records straight. No doubt
they voted for General Ben Harrison
in 1892, but they managed to let him
be defeated all the same, and history
has a strange way of repeating itself

Recently my esteemed contemporary

elaborate editorial under the title
What Is Roosevelt After?' Just at
present he Is after Senator Joseph
Benson Foraker, but what he is after
ultimately must for the present be
classed with the time honored query.

Everybody loves Marse Henry Wat

able of mortals. Many good Demo
Gratis will regret that he seems TO have
thrown his eccentric once more, Last
year he made speech of welcome to
Colonel William Jennings Bryan when
he visited Louisville just subsequent
to his return to his native land from
his tour of the world which for pep
feryid elequence threw all other wei
come speeches to the great Nebraskan
completely in the shade. That Wat
tersonian speech rang through the land
like a bugle call to duty, and it rang
clear and true. Every body that is any
body among Democrats rejoiced with
exceeding great joy that Marse Henry
was not only safely in the band wag

Marse Henry's dream. His dalliance
with the dons seems to have given the
great and genial Kentuckian really
bad case of mulligrubs. AS he sees it,
things Democratic are sadly out of
joint. like sweet BELLS tangled, out of
tune. and we are all going to what
Mr.. Mantalini termed 1.-The demnition
bowwows' in a hand basket. These
are signs that Marse Henry is for
ninst w. J. B. and all his works. For
instance, he has suggested some name
less person as an ideal presidential can
didate in such manner as to set every
body to guessing as to his identity.
It's a more brain racking puzzle than
the query, How old is Anng Indeed,
the Washington Herald has a cartoon
which assumes that> Marse Henry Is
his own mysterious candidate.
Not long since Hon. Isidor Rayner,
the brilliant senior senator from Mary
land, wrote a learned and scintillating
article for Baltimore paper, In which
he hammers Bryan to beat the band
for his advocacy of government owner
ship of railroads and of the initiative
and referendum He also takes a fall
out of Bryan for indorsing Beveridge's
child labor bill and declares that Bry-
ans ideas constitute the rankest sort Of
federalism All in all it was a bril-
liant article 1t pleased Marse Henry
SO well that he not only republished the
entire article, handsomely displayed, on
the editorial page of the Courier-Jour-
nal but in the same issue published
glowing editorial eulogy more than
column long, in which he pronounced
Senator Rayner to be "a matchless con-
stitutional lawyer" and urged his read
ers, one and all, to peruse the Isayner
article most carefully and prayerfully.
Now, Rayner Is not noted half SO much
for his bashfulness as for his brains,
but If that editorial eulogy does not
make him blush l miss my guess. If
not, he is very glutton for praise. All
this shows that Marse Henry is wab
bling like man suffering from bad
case of locomotor ataxia. Now, the
strangest part Of it is that last year,
when he gave Bryan such welcome
to old Kentucky as must have warmed
the cookies of his heart Bryan had al
ready declared in his New York speech
in favor of government ownership of
railroads Therefore we must con-
clude that it is his Endorsement of the
initiative and referendum which has
alienated Marse Henry's affections, but

Road Experts.

The men in charge of the ar
rangements for the State Good
Roads Convention to be held al
the State Fair on Thursday,
Septem Der 18th, have been most
fortunate in securing two of the
pest road experts in the coun-
try to give talks to the delegates
Mr.. A. N. Johnson, who is
now State Engineer of Illinois,
has been connected with state
Work in building good roads
ever since the movement started
He was in the employ of the
Massachusetts Highway Com
mission for number of years,
going from there to Maryland to
take charge of the work in that
state when their State Geologi-
cal Survey first inaugurated
state highway work.
Mr.. Johnson was in the Gov
ernment road Office for a term
of years before accepting his
present position as state engi-
neer of Illinois.
Beside being one of the fore
most road builders in the coun-
try, Mr.. Johnson is very in
teresting speaker, and a treat is
assured all the delegates who
can attend.
Mr.. Sam G.. Lancaster, the
foremost road expert in the en-
plOy OF tine q, S. Government,
has also been secured to address
the delegates. Mr.. Lancaster
has built roads in many parts of
the country and is universally
liked wherever he goes. He
knows about the road building
from bottom up, and knows how
to tell it in a most interes ting
manner. He is at present look
ing after important highway
work in the state of Washington.

half million dollars a year for

more.

receiving calls for expert advice
from all over the stste. There
are only Is counties which have
not sent in applications for this
help. The interest of the peo-
pie in the subject of good roads
is rapidly becoming quite in
tense and only needs proper di-
rectlon in order to secure in a
very short time a great improve
ment in the roads of Wisco nsin.

coast will soon be the chief source

Inc policy of the government In
creating national forests In the west,
taken in connection with the favor
able climatic and Typographical con-
ditions for the growth of trees, in
sures future supply which will be
greatly to the vests advantage.
When the inevitable time of timber
shotage arrives, the cost of trans
portation in the long haul across the
continent will aid the west in sup
plying its own needs first. The ma
tional forests must be first of all for
the supply of western needs. The
east had originally the bulk of the
country's forests. 1t has largely
wasted them. The west has now
considerable provision for the future.
The presence of the national forests
will insure for all time a permanent
supply of material for wood-using
industries in the west, although the
actual holdings of the federal govern
ment in themselves are by no means
sufficient to furnish all the timber
which will be needed. They will also
have an influence in encouraging prl-
vate holdings of tlmberlands to tako
care of them in a way that will keep
them in productive state. The
question what to do for timber that
can not be had in needed quantities
is likely to become acute In the east.

A Mystery OF the Sea.
(By william C. Fitzgerald.)

A derelict steered by a dead mans
hand is worth recording. That was
the Sight that met the eyes OF men on
board the ship Areibls last year In
the Pacific. The man had lashed
himself to the wheel. and had died
or been struck dead In some tremen-
dous storm. And there he stood, ap-
parently nerved and erect, with cold
hands grasping the spokes, and
sightless eyes that seemed TO steer
ahead. The master and officers of
the Arlebls scuttled the derelIct and
sent her lone watcher into the depths
tc a fitting burial.
There are some derelicts which de-
serve the name only because they
are found on the high seas with not
a living person on board. Search
the whole maritime annals through,
aud you will find no more amazing
instance tim that OF the Marie Cs-
leste. Her very name stands for
welrdly fantastic story OF the sea.
One fine morning In 1887 she left
New York for London with crew
OF thirteen, including the masters
wife and young child. A British
bark sighted her in mid-Atlantic
fortnight later; but not a sign Of life
did she give when hailed In the In
ternational Code. The British cap
tain. greatly puzzled. tried every
means known to sea, but in vain. He
could hardly believe II possible that
