The President at Canton.

President Roosevelt in his speech
Monday at the unwilling of the Nc
.Kinley Memorial at Canton rightly
described the ruling trait in his pre-
decessor's character 1t was that
of unaffected human sympathy.
With William Mckinley kindly con-
sideration of the rights and feelings
of others was not a studied attitude
or spasmodically cultivated talent.
1t was a native impulse which grew
by natural exercise to be a gracious
and ennobling habit. Mr. Mckinley
never sought to win popularity by
artifice. He needed no articles, for
it was never in his nature to be has
ty, unjust, Incorporate or inconsid-
crate in his dealings with the world
about him and he attracted the re-
psect and love of those with whom he
dealt because they realized that,
whatever line of action he might
follow, he was incapable of personal
malice, prejudice or meanness. AS
Mr.. Roosevelt happily put it, mo
other President has ever more de-
served to have his lifework charac
terized in Lincoln's words as being
carried on with malice toward none,
with charity toward all. ," In his
official as well as in his personal re-
lations Mr.. Mckinley was a high
minded and simple gentleman.
The lesson to be drawn from such
life and character as obvious, and
President Roosevelt did not hesitate
to draw it. Why should we as cit
liens in our public and private life
not labor to show to our fellows the
same consideration, the same fair
ness, and the same sense of courtesy
and justice? Why should business
and politics be conducted on the low
plain of trickery, fraud and con-
scienceless competition and leaders
in the fields of activity be content to
stoop to actions which are not to be
harmonized with fair dealing or the
self-respect, dignity and honor of a
true gentleman? The thousands of
dubious transactions which are COM
ing to light in the larger world of fl
nance and business make one wonder
we are losing the old indi-
vidual perspective and the old sense
Of highminded personal obligation |
President Roosevelt properly COM
mends the example, of a serene and |
sober character like McKinley's to |
nasty and prejudicial agitators |
against wealth as well as to politi-
;ians and business men who forget |
heir personal standards of honor
md honesty when they become i'm
nersed in political ventures or great
business enterprises. What the
country most needs is a revival of
he spirit of personal honor, re-
traint, disinterestedness and neigh
'orly charity so beautifully exempli-
led by William McKinley.-New
tribune.

Detroit, Mich, Oct. 3.-Congress-
igan district, in refusing the request
Of delegation of the local striking
telegraphers that he write President
Roosevelt urging him to use his Of
flee to settle the telegraph strike,
took strong grounds in favor of the
open shop. The striking operators
informed DENLY that a number of
congressman in other parts of the
country had made the request of the
president, but, while offering to send
a petition to the chief executive for
them without comment, the congress
man declined to ask the president S
interference. Speaking of the inter-
view, Congressman DENLY said:
81 do not care if every other con-
gresham has sent the request,
will face the issue squarely myself.
1t has got to come sooner or later,
and might as we'll come now as later.
And | will cheerfully go down to
defeat if my attitude for fair play for
all men is made cause for defeat.
/ believe in unions; they have come
to stay; they are good; but they
must base their hopes of success up
on something besides forcing men to
join their ranks. If my work is
good, have a right to employment
if l can get it. If an employer pays
good wages and treats his men right,
he has right to employ whom he
chooses"

State Politics.

The Sault Ste. Marie Times having
suggested the nomination of Chase
s. Osborn as candidate for congress
in the Twelfth district in place of H.
o. Young, the present congressman
Mr.. Osborn has declined to to be con-
sidered. He says:
There are many reasons why I
being that I do not wish to be and
that there is no real need for me to
be a candidate. The district Is we'll
represented now, and changes should
be slowly made where good repre-
sentatives are already well equipped
In every way and have won acquaint-
ance, influence, experience and pre-
cedence.
with the recovery of my health I
hope to be permitted to be a good
citizen, neither Sinking my duty as
such, nor giving food to a mere vain,
personal ambition. I hope to see the
500 unit for its own good political
ly, materially and morally.
That you consider me as worthy
of the place pleases me and will in
spire me to strive harder to merit
the regard and respect of my friends
and fellow citizens. So far as party
affiliation is concerned, am a liberal
Republican and hope always to be.
This shall not prevent me from hav-
ing admiration, affection and respect
for many Democrats in Chippewa
county and over the entire country.
The times have come to be generous
and fair enough to make place |
for all parties and all creeds We are |
all brothers and the world is for all |
Of those who strive in any way to
make 1t better Some may follow the
will o. the wisp of faulty. These
we will have sympathy and consider
ion for and should endeavor to lead

for Senator o. N. Fuller, of Ford Riv-
er for the Republican nomination for
auditor general next year. "He is a
man upon whom the entire upper
peninsula could and should unite,
we'll equipped by natural ability for
public service and with an enviable
record in public Office behind him"
says the News. more than almost
any other public official of the coun-
try north of the straits he could rally
strength from the lower peninsula.
AS a member of the legislature his
has earned and holds the respect and
confidence of his fellow members of
the legislature. He is a strong, con-
sentative man who would add
strength to the state ticket and honor
any Office to which the people may
elevate him. 1t would be the part of
political wisdom for the upper PENN
sula to concentrate it's entire strength
on Senator Fuller's boom for auditor
general. If this is done success
should follow. 1t may be argued that
in Luther l.. Wright the upper coun-
try will have one place on the ticket,
but this cannot be argued in fairness.
Mr.. Wright's residence since early in
the year has been in lower Michigan
and his denomination should not be
charged to the upper peninsula.
Even if it were the twelfth congress
sional district is entitled to more con-
sideration than so obscure an office
as that held by the former Ironwood
man."

The sentiment of the newspapers
of the state is decidedly in favor of
keeping politics out of the coming
constitutional convention. The
Houghton Mining Gazette hits the
nail when it says: 1T is not a polit-
ical gathering and we sincerely hope
that no attempt will be made to
play the game there. The great
trouble with our present constitution
is that it is altogether too much of a
legislative frame-up. If the soon-to-
be-made constitution is going to be
acted upon favorably by the people
of the state or document that will
circumscribe the needs of the case,
it will have to industriously avoid
politics"

In accordance with call of Gov.
Warner, the legislature will convene
in special session on Monday next.
1t is to be hoped that the appropria-
ton bill for the Mt. Pleasant normal
may be speedily passed and the needed
changes made in the primary and
military laws and adjournment taken
without unnecessary delay. If mem
bers have in mind the good of the
Republican party in the campaign Of
1908, that is what they will do.

The Saginaw Courier-Herald says:
Boiling down the comment and con-
densing the news items that are sent
out, and which frequently have their
source in a press agents bureau, rel
ative to the next years presidential
nominations, it appears that the
great mass of the Republican party,
the rank and file of the voters, are
in favor of giving Mr.. Roosevelt an
other chance. His VOW, made after
the last election, that he would not
again be candidate they seem will
ing to relieve him of.

| w. l.. Ward, member of the Re.
publican National Committee for the
state of New York, has sized up the
| situation as regards the next Re.
publican presidential candidate just
| about as it is in an interview with
| the New York Tribune
"The Republican party in the
coming national campaign must put
in the field man in whose sinceri-
ty and uprightness the people believe
thoroughly, man who they are con-
vinced will work absolutely for the
interests of the whole people and
carry out the great work of reform
that has been begun by President
Roosevelt. The delegation that will
be elected to the next Republican
Convention from New York state will
not be chosen with any other idea
than to secure the nomination of
such a man."
There is one thing we have to
remember" said Mr.. Ward. at is
that the people of the United States
have awakened to the fact that a
new order of things has come into
existence. We are not going back
ward. The day when the old con-
ditions existed, of the control of
judges and legislatures and Repre-
sentatives and Senators, has gone by,
and we are not going back to the old
order of things"
Mr.. Ward was asked If he thought
President Roosevelt would consent
to run for third time.
81 think that would depend very
lagely on the way the matter was
presented to him." was the reply.
"Just what do you mean by
that?"
well, there might be combina-
ton of circumstances which would !
bring such result about"
What is your idea of such COM
of circumstances"
81 don't think I would care to go |
into that. 1t seems to me as If any |
one might conceive of such a situa-
lion.
81 believe that the President is
absolutely sincere in not desiring to
De a candidate again." added Mr..
Ward.
Mr.. Ward Is a great admirer of the
President and the work he has done.
we just escaped conflagration,"
aid Mr.. Ward, referring to the con-
Iitions existing at the time the Pres
dent started his campaign to con-
rol the corporations. No other
nan could have dnoe what he has
one. No business man who could
ave realized just the disturbance
hat the policy of the administration
yas bound to cause in business cir
les would have been brave enough
D have gone ahead as the President
as done. But what he has done has
cen for the best interests of the
ountry, and will in the end prove to
ave been to the advantage of all
sgitimate business enterprises.

New Garments are Made In Three or
Four Ways.


Skirts are made in one Of three or
four different ways But just for the
moment the favorite is the plated
straight skirt But it all depends upon
the material after all and the fancy
plated skirt with the plaits set in be-
low the hips is model that is much
worn.
Where materials will permit the ruff
fed skirt is popular. and the skirt,
consisting of two deep rufies, each
one-half the depth at the spirit. is
selected as the model in soft silks and
poplins
The seven gored empire skirt is one
Of the best models This is a plain
walking skirt. It is fitted around the
hips, but spreads widely below. It is
made without ornamentation Of any
kind but is finished with two or three
plain bands around the foot. These
bands are of velvet, sewed upon the
upper edge only, SO as to set out well
and make a pretty finish for the skirt
The five gored skirt is also one Of
the popular designs, but it needs to
be trimmed. and the wide, handsome
border Of heavy lace around the bot
tom is favorite way of trimming this
style of skirt Still anQther popular
method is that of applying a rufle
about a foot wide, with a heading Of
lace, or with piping of silk, or some
fiat velvet bands.
The Killed skirt is much in evidence,
and there are skirts that are. made
with the plaits turning back sharply
from the front. They are wide and so
arranged as to leave a very broad
front panel, which is ornamented In
some manner. This wide front panel
may be trimmed with lace or with
a braided design.
The use Of lace upon winter skirts
may seem a questionable stretch Of
appropriateness, yet when one sees
the beautiful winter gowns that are
trimmed with lacy materials one is
forced to change ones mind as to the
use of lace on winter gowns Many Of
the handsomest winter costumes are
trimmed with filmy materials. Lace
dyed, tan lace, brown lace and laces
in black and white are all much worn.
The mixed fabrics are SO pretty
that they need little or no decoration,
and many Of the dressmakers abso-
lutely refuse to trim them in anyway.

Ribbon Trimminas.

For trimming childrens afternoon
dresses ribbons viii be used a great
deal. A last years dress can be made
to look like new if ribbon is skill
fully used. Velvet, satin, gros-grain.
and taffeta ribbons are the ones used.
The trimming can be put on in almost
any way one wishes.
Another trimming is plaid material
A dress OF plain cloth is trimmed with
bias bands Of plaid or check material
Of some contrasting shade.
Braids are particularly fashionable
for trimming both adults and chill
dren's dresses, and they are seen in
many beautiful varieties.
