Quite number of people were
in town yesterday from Ferdinand,
Greencreek, Keuterville and the
surrounding country attending
communion services at the
Catholic church.
The road north of town near the
Peter Bies place is still in bad
shape and many complaints are
made by persons having to pass
over it. Someone should see that
it is repaired before damage suit
is instituted.
AS we go to press we learn that
two base ball teams are being or
ganized here to play teams from
the neighboring towns this sum
mer. They will afford much
amusement for our citizens and
be encouraged by everyone.
Joseph Hoene, the Keuterville
saw mill man, was in the city

a pleasant call. He purchased the
sawrnill formerly owned by his
brother, John Hoene, last year and
Informed us he intends cutting
about GOO, 900 feet of lumber thi.
spring. He has logs for over hall
a million feet now in the yard and
can easily make larger run if the
demand justifes it. He still has 3
good supply Of dry lumber from
last years run On hand and wants
to dispose Of part of it before start

BRAIN STORMS"

the above caption about PreSl-
dent Roosevelt that is SO pert
inent, timely. and SO well reflects
the sentiment of a large number
of the more conservative, that
we produce it herewith:
In Mondays Salt Lake Tri-
bune appears a cartoon depicting
Uncle Sam leaning back in his
chair saying to Presidet Roose-
welt: "Teddc! Teddy! You're
an amusin' little cuss." At his
feet is President Roosevelt, yell
ing, Hes a liar. It's a plot to
ruin me. " Liar! Liar, TITS
a conspiracy to keep me from
running the country" 'Harri-
man" The cartoon is so good
natured and yet so applicable to
the President and his views of
himself as to be worthy of COM
ment. This paper does not for
one moment believe that the sal
walton of America depends upon
President Roosevelt. We cannot
think that country has come to
the pass where the whole re-
sponsibility rests on one man.
We believe that the President
has become possessed Of a mis-
sion and is subject to brain
storms. We imagine that the
SIS, 900, 900 conspiracy to defeat
President Roosevelt's policies
was organized largely in the
mind of the President or some
of his ill-advised followers. It
may have originated with the
Third term league. But it
makes little difference. There
are in the United States, and in
the Republican party, probably
a thousand men just as COM
petent, just as sincere, just as
fearless and determined as is
President Roosevelt, and they
are not subject to brain storms
either.
President Roosevelt was
made President of the United
States by a tragedy. Had Presi-
dent Mckinley lived, Roosevelt
} never would have been presi-
dent. John Hay would have
been president. John Hay would
have been the man, and who is
there to say that Hay would not
have made as good a president as
Roosevelt? We are all inclined
to indulge in a great deal OF
slush over Roosevelt. We are
all inclined to think that he was
divinely appointed to lead the
American people out Of the
? wilderness of fraud, corruption
/, and corporation rule. Those
! who think this are sadly mis-.
. taken. Men with the right
a temperament frequently give ex
: preston to the will of the people,
: Men who comprehend The
mind of the people frequently
assume leadership, but it mus
be born in mind that at the foun
dation the public will is supreme
