Los ANGELES, CAL, May 10, 1907.
Ed. STANDARD:
Your comments on my letter, pub
lished in the April 18th number of
your valuable paper, may lead some
to think have gone over to Roose-
veltism, body, soul and breeches, and
it is to obviate the possibility of
any such conjecture / write this ar
ticle. always like to be fair. As
Teddy says, II like a square DEAL"
and fact sounds as we'll to me from
the lips of o Roosevelt as from the
lips of o Bryan or Jefferson. But
Teddy is not infallible and, to my
mind, has made more mistakes in
what we call craftsmanship than any
other person who has occupied the
Presidential chair. On the other
hand he has done some good work.
We should commend him for his good
deeds and criticise him for his bad
ones, though they be unintentional.
When said, 1t took q Teddy to
lead 'em to right thinking" (referring
to Our legislation / referred to his
condemnation of the trusts and his
continual admonitions against COM
binations in restraint of trade and
for which the capitalists are now ar
rayed against him. do not wish to
be understood as endorsing any of
the cardinal principles of the d. o. p.
that he represents and which he in
duty bound to carry out.
1 believe Teddy is more of Demo-
crat than q Republican, but being
caught in the Republican trap, he has
become so enmeshed in its Shiny
folds that it is impossible for him to
extricate himself while in office. If
Teddy had been elected on q Demo-
cratic platform he would have been
free to carry out Democratic ideas
without criticism, but when he at
tempts it as o Republican, the plum
derers of the people. the legislative
pirates of the past four decades, hold
up their hands in holy horror in de-
nunciation of an attempt of the Pres
ident to infringe on vested interests,
most Of which have been acquired by
q duplicity, fraud and corruption
never before known in the history of
the past. Teddy is more to be pitied
than blamed. Like Old Dog Tray he
is in bad company and must make
the best Of it till he is relieved from
duty March 4, 1909. Yes, l like him
better as a man, for he has the cour-
age to say what he thinks and he
thinks along the right lines, as q
rule, but like all us frail mortals he
makes many mistakes. He made a
mistake when he allowed himself to
run ON a d. o. p. platform; when he
sanctioned the Philippine policy;
when he promoted the self-convicted
Paul Morton; when he forced the
secession of Panama from Columbia;
when he abused General Miles for
expressing an opinion on the Schley-
Sampson racket; when he formed his
Ananias club; when he gave it as his
opinion that the japanese ought to
be endowed with citizenship, having
all the rights and privileges of Amer
lean citizens-which is q mOnstrOuS
idea; when he represented Meyer,
Haywood and PettybOne, together
with Hartman, as undesirable citi-
zens, thereby virtually convicting the
three former before their trial, and l
think he made q mistake in failing to
demand an investigation of the man

Our people are to be congratulated
upon the emphatic protest they made
against parading the disgusting
scenes in the Thaw trial before ar
Olympia audience. 1t required gal
to even attempt it. If the drama is
to pose as an educator and refiner OF
morals, some other plot than IL
centiousness must be the motif OF
action.
The members of St. Johns parish
held reunion and reception, Tues.
day evening. at which delightful
literary and musical programme was
rendered and repast of dainty re-
freshments was served. The Rector
was assisted in receiving by Mrs. A.
\. Phillips and Miss Alice Nichols.
The church was beautifully decorated
with Nature choicest floral offer
ings.
o. c. Calderhead, Secretary of the
State Railroad Commission, and Har-
ry Fairchilds. its Chairman, left this
week for st. Paul, to spend several
weeks. in examination of the books
of the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern companies, to estimate the
freight traffic over these roads in
this State. These records are for
use at the hearing to be given these
companies in June, for establishing
a new joint rate for wheat and other
products.
1t seems that the mysterious Mrs.
Jones, who has been cared for by the
Ladies Relief Society several years
past, is reported to have been known
to other parties before they took
charge of her, instead of being a new
conner and stranger at that time.
DIR. Bridgford has been unable to
learn anything definite, of her life,
in a second interview. He expresses
the belief, however, that she is crazy,
and that while ordinarily quiet and
harmless, violent outbreak may
happen at any time.
Mrs. VIM. Schofield gave yester-
day what may properly be denOm-
mated AN Old Ladies Party" at
which those who participated had
all passed the Scriptural limit of nat
ural life three score years and
ten" 1t was quite a joyous party
and the afternoon was spent in de-
lightful review of past memories and
experiences and the scarcely less
agreeable discussion of splendid
repast spread by the genial hostess.
Those who attended were: Mrs. Lin
back, aged 20; Mrs. McClelland, 81;
Mrs. Sparks, 81; Mrs. Frazer, IS;
Mrs. Smith, IS; Mrs. Avery, 81, and
Mrs. Maris, u, or an average of a
little over 80 years each.
Mr.. F. L. Sullivan, of Baker City,
Oregon, after an eleven years alb
sence, paid Visit to his former
home here, this week. Mrs. Sullivan,
it will be remembered, kept a mil
linery store in this city, and who,
with her charming young daughters,
were well known to our people.
While they own much larger estab-
lishment in Baker City, Mr.. Sullivan
says they all have a warm place in
their hearts for Olympia, and it is
not without the range of possibility
they may some day return and renew
their life with us. Mr.. S. came to
Portland ahead of time, as delegate
to the Grand Lodge X. of p, that
meet in Portland next week, to
pay his old friends here visit. He
is also an Elk, and under the hospit-
able care of Gordon Mackay and 9TH
ers of the antlered crowd, it is not
at all probable he will stray further
from the herd.

Saturday night Mrs. Boomer, of
Aberdeen, aged 30, wife of an en-
ploye of single mill, attempted
suicide by taking carbolic acid. An
antidote counteracted the poison
while the woman was at the hospital.
From the institution she escaped and
going to the Chehalis river, Sunday
morning, jumped in. She was res
cued and will recover, although bad
ly burned by the acid.

Come. Let Us Reason Together.

A mass meeting of the berry grow
ers of Thurston county, is called for
Saturday afternoon, at 2 o'clock in
the Superior Courtroom. 1t is OF
the utmost necessity that general
rally should be held. This is an Oc-
casion in which all should respond.
There should be no tagging. There
is nothing to lose and much to gain
by united action. Much may be lost
for want of it. Do not depend too
much upon the enterprise and pub
lie spirit of your neighbOr, but ex-
hibit some of it yourself. A word
to the wise is sufficient.

A Spokane dispatch of the 18th
inst. states that H. w. Mitchell, of
South Bend, Ind, is to be sent to

LLOYD Not a Blind Placer

Robert Lloyd, who was arrest
ed July 18th, on the charge of
selling liquor to an Indian, and
who was subsequently found
guilty Of the charge and given a
Jail sentence of ninety days,
stoutly denies that he was a
blind pigger," as stated by a
city paper. Lloyd says that he
had bought the bottle of liquor
for his own use, but later sold it
to the Indian, therefore making
him guilty of illegally selling IL
'quor. He is a model prisoner at
Sheriff Belford's boarding house,
and is treated as sort of q
"trusty." He maintains that as
he is we'll known around the
country the allegation has tend
ed to injure his reputation.

ANOTHER OFFICER
Is Added to the City Police Force
Is Considered a Good One

Another patrolman has been
added to the present city police
force. He is William Barnes,
and from present indications, he
will make good" This gives
the city three policemen, as Mr..
Barnes is half day and half
night. Another man is daily ex-
expected from Seattle, WASH,
and when he comes the city will
be as we'll protected during the
day as it is at night. Chief Hurst
is at present the all day man and
James McBeth, the night watch.
At present there is rather a
a scarcity of loafers about town,
and consequently the petty dep
, relations committed lately have
been reduced to minimum.
This is accounted for by the fact
i, that the busy harvest season is
now on, and anyone wishing to
procure work has ample oppor-
tunity to do so.
