THE MAN or MODERATE MEANS.


-No,' said the man Of moderate means.
Il don't take a psrlor car when l travel
because the fine cars are more strongly
built and 90 safer. nor do | take II to avoid
the crowd. for I don't think I'm any better
than anybody else. and az a matter OF fact
I might not find any better company In a
parlor car than I would in a situp; and
q strong reason for my not taking a parlor
car would be found in my limited resources,
which would prompt me always to take an
ordinary coach; but really ! take a seat In
. parlor car simply to avoid being crowded.
IL lie like this:
when I rode in the situps. as I used
to do. l always got to the station early, 80
that I could get a seat in the middle OF a
car and q place by the window where l
could lean my elbow on the window sill
and look Out Of the window comfortably.
Then, having thus secured the best seat In
IT,, watched Abe car all up. always with the
hope that It would turn out that I might keep
that seat all TO myself. but always in more
or less t~repidation for fear not so much that
somebody would want 70 sit with me as
that that person would be somebody who
was very very stout; for l am in body, like
my purse. rather lean, and 20 | leave beside
me In the seat q considerable vacant space.
which 10 lik oly to prove attractive TO per-
sons OF generous dimensions.
so whom I caught a gliHpse OF a stout
person coming along the aisle and i saw
that stout person pass me by looking for a
seat alone l was grateful. and | thought to
myself there's a chance for me yet; but
more often this stout person would pause at
my seat and look at me and say:
sis this seat tskenY' and !. as inshonor
bound. would reply:
mo, SIR or No. madam al the case
might be; and then the stout person would
prepare to crowd In. The bulky gentleman.
or the stout lady. would wedge in between
the back Of the seat In front and the arm Of
my seat, weGge in slowly and carefully.
and then, when we'll clear OF the arm. and so
Of necessity well over toward me, settle
back and slowly downward into the seat,
more or less ~crowding; IL might in fact be
completely blank citing me-. thus not only
quite upeetting but more than multiplying
all the precautions hat l had taken to in
sure my comfort, making me uncomfortable
perhaps for my whole journey; far worse
on thai / would ave been II I had come
late and tax en- an aisle seat, without the ad-
vantases Of the seat at the window end,
but with q thin person.
1T 10 for this reason that, n~otwithstand-
ing I am a man OF moderate means, l no
longer ride in the itups when l travel.

A R00SEVELTIAN BLUFF.

Just when the country had start
ed up in surprise at the further
revelations of Rooseyelt's knowl-
edge of the corrupt practices of
his party in New York state ia the
last national election, and begun TO
realize from the Hartman cores
pondence that the president not
only was not averse to, but was
fully aware of, the raising of =
tremendous corruption fund, a
determined effort is made by the
president to direct public attention
in another direction by the cry of
conspiracy" against him and his
policies.
The stories set aflOat from the
White House must be received
with much ipcredulity. They do
not hear the stamp of truthfulness
upon their face. Some one, whose
name is not diYulged, according
to the administration story reveal.
cd TO the president the details of a
plot of representatives of the great
combinations of capital. laid at a
small dinner party, to defeat the
ROoSeTeltian policy in so far as it
relates to the curling of trusts and
the regulation of railroads.
No names are given, and 70
other definite information, but a
vague inference is allowed to
circulate that it was a Hartman.
Rockefeller gathering, with pro-
minent anti Roosevelt politicians
In the back ground.
Altogether the story looks too
nebulous to be worthy of much
consideration. 1t is beng served
up With great headlines, and the
people are being called on to rally
around the president and defeat
the wicked Vaccinations of these
powerful but unknown enemies.
But looking at it calmly, it must
seen to the world like poor piece
of subterfuge intended to divert
attention from the damaging posi-
ton in which Roosevelt was put
by the Hartman correspondence.
1t Lis probably a mere cry of nstop
thief to turn the public eye from
the culprit in the White House.
