THE THIRD TERM INTRIGUE.

special dispatch from Atlanta,
Georgia, TO the st, Louis Globe Demo
crat, quotes President Roosevelt as saw.
ing: ''1f [ could be positively assured
of the electoral vote Of single South
ern State / would gladly be a caudi-
date for the Presidency next year,
The dispatch explains that this state
ment was made by President Roosevelt
on Georgia day at the jamestown cx-
position, to leading Georgia Democrats
then and there present, The dispatch
goes on to say that the declaration, as
quoted, was made. TO John Temple
Graves, following the wave of good
feeling attendant upon the dedication
Of. the Georgia building, ga replica
of the home Of the President IS mother,
at Rossvllle, Georgia, 1t is repre-
sented that the President was carried
sion, and that the Georgia party pres
cnt shared his enthusiasm, the nara.
tion proceeding:
IL was a love feast. Political issues
and party lines were forgotten Each
man was toasting the other and all were
toasting the President Soon after this
outbreak OF enthusiasm John Temple
Graves went to President Roosevelt and
urged him TO run Tor third term. Mr..
Roosevelt, it Is said. was moved by the
plea. but recalled the promise made to
the public following his election in 1904
The President is reported to have said
that but one thing would cause him TO
change his determination in this respect
He then said that II he could be posi-
lively assured of the electoral vote of "a
single Southern State--if he could break
the solid South-he would be candidate
for third term.
President Roosevelt spoke at length on
the solid South, declared il should be
broken. and said that he would run again
II he could be assured that his candidacy
would split the South from its one way
G. SraySs ySsing SAID According to reports NJ
Roosevelt that he could carry Georgia
and probably two or three other South
ern States and it is said that promise
was given the President to attempt to
stampede Georgia for him at the proper
time.
Signs are by no means wanting that
President Roosevelt is seeking an ex-
cuse for nullifying his positive and re-
peated declarations that ne would not
under any circumstances be a candidate
for President in 1908, and would not
accept any nomination, no matter how
freely. unanimously, and enthusias-
tically 1t might be offered
The above is one Of the indications
that the President is seeking such an
avenue of escape from his promise II
Is true that there has been sort of
DENIAL that he made. the declaration as
quoted. However, the statement seems
To be well substantiated, and to be in
such detail and told with such circum-
stance that there, can be little doubt
! OF his making the declaration substan.

The people OF Sheridan View Secretary
Garflelds action as rather peculiar, from
the fact that his department Is really the
prosecuting witness aga Inst the coal com
pany and the indicted ofncials.
1t is not surprising that the people
of Sheridan consider the action of Sec
retary Garfield rs rather peculiar. 5"
1t certainly is SO, and this occurrence
Mt Sheridan is an additional evidence
that the Western trip of Secretary Gar
field is not in the least in the interest
of the public service, or the amend
ment of the land laws, either in their
text or in their administration, or in
the orderly and proper administration
of his department; il is a mere junket,
with political side-lights of more or
less intriguing and odious bias.

THE THING THAT PREVENTED.

Apostle Smoot S evasion of the point
at issue with respect to the failure
of the Legislature TO violate the CON
! stitution in not passing the fire and
| police bill, takes the form of claiming
I some sort of admission from The
| Tribune. That fire and police bill un-
dertook TO confiscate the property of
the city, TO turn portion Of the muni-
cipal administration over TO an ap.
pointive State commission, and TO give
that commission unlimited power TO force
the increase of taxation in this city and
to largely absorb its taxable revenues.
The Tribune pointed out the unconsti-
tutionality of this, and also brought
forward the fact that the passage of
the bill would amount 10 nothing; be-
cause it would be resisted in the courts,
and the courts would inevitably declare
such legislation null and void.
Apostle Smoot evades the latter por.
tion of the proposition, and undertakes
TO claim that The Tribune admits that
the Legislature was controlled by the
constitution and was not dominated by
the church, which sought the passage
Of the bill-an important admission by
him. AT the same time the apostle
would have TO admit that his "nlouth -
was loudly clamoring for the passage
of that bill, in spite of the constitu-
tional inhibition. There is no doubt,
either, that the clamor of the mouth -
was melted by the church propaganda;
and that If the constitution alone had
been in the way and the oath of the
legislators TO support it, the bill would
have been passed, What killed the bill
was not the constitution, not any re-
gard for the oath of the legislators, but
the fact that its passage would be fu-
tile. The city would not have given up,
but would have resisted in the courts
any attempt of the commission to take
possession of municipal property and
to usurp the municipal functions that
appertain TO tins city. The courts
sustained the defense. That is what
prevented the enactment of that un-
constitutional statute. There can he
no doubt whatever about this II was
no regard for the constitution that
stood in the way, but merely the fact,
well known in advance, that the law
would be imperative even if it
passed. So that the defiance Of the
constitution would have been in vain
and the church leaders habitual dis
regard of legal restraint would have eff
tected no purpose.
The restraint of law is never in the
way Of the hierarchic rulers. IT is only
when they see that their defiance of
law will not be effective in any respect
that they refrain. The aw-deliance
that puts money into their pockets or
grstltes their lust is their best hold;
but the lawde6ance that is in every
way fruitless, that effects nothing, is
not to their mind. In the case in ques
ton, nothing was TO be gained; there
fore, the plea is made Of obedience to
the constitutional inhibition But if
there had been any real prospect of
gain or grab in the passage of the
statute. 1T would have gone through
like shot The only thing that pre-
vented was the shadow of the court
club that kills.

THE GRAFT OF TREASON.

Editor Tribune When the Mormon
preachers profess their loyalty TO the
their motive for so doing that the form
of government has been favorable to the
growth OF the Mormon church; and the
fact that their church could not have
risen and nourished under other forms
OF government. Is the primary cause of
the Mormon appreciation Of the Consti-
tuition. 1t is notable that they do not
profess loyalty to the Constitution be-
cause OF its intrinsic worth. and because
OF their devotion TO the principles OF JUS
tice and liberty II represents: but pri-
marily because 1t serves the purposes of
The Mormon church. Is this patriotism
or have you better name for II?

Answering the interrogative SEN

suspicion Of patriotism in the Mormon
church assumption And, adyisedly
we do have better word with which
to describe it--treason.
While our correspondent S letter pre-
sents a conclusion, rather than bare
premise, it might be well for The
Tribune to contribute to his enlightcn-
ment in this Wise: The church holds
that the Government and the institu-

adjuncts to the kingdom Of God on

sMELLED HIS WAY HOME.
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Even foxhound, whose business is
to earn a living by his nose, must have
remarkable powers Of smell to find his
way five miles through the woods
when his head Is stuck in q tin can.
At least, that is the wa Bert Whit
man Of Los Angeles looks at It, and he
is proud of his dog, SPARK.
Spark went hunting recently with
his master, and when it became dark
he was still running a crafty old fox
up on the side Of the Pico mountain.
There was 20 catching the hound and
no calling him off, so Whitman left
him to return home when he got ready.
Frequently he had packed his gun
down the mountain while the hound
was still believing on hot scent, and
he had no fear as to his showing up in
the night.
At ten o'clock, when there were no
signs of Spark, Whitman left the kit.
chen door aJar, placed a big pad Of
mush and soup bones on the floor, and
went to bed. Three hours later he was
awakened by gathering in the kitchen,
and a moment later the hound, with
his head stuck into two-gallon milk
can, waddled erratically into the bed
room.
To say that the animals master was
surprised is putting it mildly. At first
he was not sure that it was his dog,
but after he spoke, Spark thUmped his
tail and tried to climb into bed.
1t was necessary for him to use a
can opener to free the dog, and this
took some fifteen minutes. All this
time Spark stood perfectly still, but
the moment he was released he made
for his supper, and ate as Ii famished.
The animal probably found the can
near some camp, for it was covered
with rust. Doglike, he investigated
the interior with hopes Of finding food,
and could not remove his head. He
must have found his way home through
scent, as it was impossible for him to
see through the bottom of the can.

RARE COLONIAL COLLECTIONS.

Most Complete I'm the Country Now
owned by the Society at Salem.
students of American ethnOlogy and
those interested in the preservation of
historical relics of ancestral life in
New England will remember the
spreading before the public of the en-
tire collection Of the famous Essex in
stltute, now made possible by the COM
pletion of spacious addition, says the
Salem correspondent of the New York
Times. Begun nearly a century ago by
the Essex Historical Society, the exhi-
bitiOn of the institute is now regarded
as the most complete in the country,
outranking those at Philadelphia and
Doylestown, Pa, and at Ipswich and
Deerfeld in this State.
The collection of $50 canvases which
the institute has acquired is well dis
played on the walls of the art gallery
on the second floor of the new building,
while in cases in the center Of the
room are collections of coins from near
ly every port in which Salem mariners
traded. A case of HindoO miniature
and other cases containing relics of the
witchcraft period make the whole room
an extremely interesting one.
A large doorway, over which is a
wooden balcony taken from an old Sa-
lem assembly hall, leads to a hall
which more particularly typifies the
method of the living OF the early set
tiers of this country. One side Of the
hall is partitioned off into three small
rooms, one representing a kitchen, an
other a bedroom and a third a parlor.
The kitchen, even to the beams in
the ceiling, is furnished after the style
of 1850, while the bedroom and parlor,
which contain rare pieces of mahogany,
are of a period fifty years later.
In the center Of the hall is a one
horse chaise, such as DR.. Holmes poet
ically pictured, and beside is a loom,
built in 1890, and in active use in Es-
sex County until within a few years.
Several rooms are devoted exclusive
ly to literary work. In one room is a
collection in honor of Salem's famous
'0ANAAOA ~ III L Ing 1CoClllOh III CulAd,
General Frederick Z. Ward. This room
is maintained by fund given by his
sister, Miss Elizabeth Ward, and con-
tains the largest number of works on
China written in the English language
that this country possesses.
An adjoining room is given up to
the mercantile marine and navigation
and in it is a library containing the
log books of nearly 1,20O voyages Of
Salem's captains.

BURGLAR MAKES ESCAPE.
Fired on Four Men, Who Ran Away
and Crook Disappeared.

Fired on Four Men, Who Ran Away
and Crook Disappeared.
Five men, who surrounded the post
Office at East Marinette, were not enough
to capture the lone burglar who was at
tempting to rob the safe. Police Officer
Dalton discovered the man at work and
went to summon help. No other police
mem being available, he impressed into
service two citizens and two fremen.
They were on watch at the front of the
building, when Dalton went to the rear
door and called on the burglar to sur
render. Instead of surrendering, how
ever, the burglar crashed through the
front window and into the street. He
fired twice and the four men on guard
ran. The burglar disappeared in an al
ley and was seen no more. Officer Dial
ton, reappearing on the scene, mistook
one of the fleeing guardsmen for the burg
lar and fired at but did not hit him.

The scare about sleeves has settled
into pretty general conviction that the
woman who wants long sleeves can
have them and be secured in the
thought that she is ahead in the fash
ion, and that the women who wants
the short sleeve is welcome to it and
may wear it with the sure comfort
that a host Of persons counted among
the best in the land are with her. Long
sleeves, wrinkled their entire length
and coming over the back of the hand,
are here, as it was predicted away
back last summer that they would be
this fall. They are, as rule, OF
gauze or lace, and match the yoke OF
the gown, while an upper sleeve more
or less brief is of material like the
bodice or its trimming. There are no
end of double-sleeve shapes. The ways
Of such sleeves are so many as to defy
standardization, some of the upper
sleeves being mere caps or bands.

Misdirected Enterprise.

Even In the country Of hustle the
hustler occasionally turns up little
late in the game.
Recently, says the New York Sun,
Prof Edmund Burke, Of the College Of
the City Of New York, received a let
ter from a press-clipping bureau.
The letter informed the professor
that his patronage was desired, and
that as a sample of the bureaus work
he would find enclosed a clipping from
a speech by President Roosevelt in
which he had quoted the professors
Wogds.
Professor Burke read the clipping
nearly through before he realized that
the President was quoting from Ed
mund Burke's speech on Cancellation
with the American Colonies" in 1915.

DEATH Through Accident.

Three Deer Hunters Meet Probable
Death Through Accident.
Edwin Nelson, a boy, while hunting
deer near Merrill, in climbing over a log,
pulled his gun after him. The trigger
caught and it was discharged, wounding
the boy. He is not expected to recover.
Philip Coyle, aged q years, a well-known
citizen, accidentally killed himself in the
woods near Raddison. He was crawling
over a windfall, dragging a rifle after
him, when brush struck the trigger and
discharged the weapon. Coyle was car
ried to his cabin by his companions and
expired shortly afterward. Arthur John
son, aged u years, was shot in an eye by
a stray bullet in the woods near Menom-
onie and it has been impossible to remove
the bullet which is impedded in the sur
face of the brain. 1t is not believed the
boy will live.
