ROOSEVELT AND HUGHES.
Opposition of the Two Growing in
Intensity.

Il Is said that ln few or no respects do

ble each other. Radicallsm finds itself

amuck there. II slashes blindly If not
feraclousIr, at anything and everything
in sight, taking what its embodiment is
pleased 70 describe as a stern happi-
ness" In every shattering blow delivered.
The governor is high-minded and reso-
lutte. He is as unfaltering as ROose-
welt in purpose, but DE is no destruction
ist. There are signs that the people
are turning 10 him for relief from the
rash. from the headlong, from that which
makes no distinction between the inn0-
cent and the guilty. Nor Is there any
thing far-fetChed about the suppOSitl0n
that these signs find no favor In the
sight Of the President.
Il has been limited that Mr.. Roose-
welt would Ike. as soon as possible after
the expiration Of his term Of office. to
transfer his activities 10 the Senate. II
is hardly conceivable that this desire
would persist in the face OF the nOmina-
ton and election Of Charles Z. Hughes
as President These are not haphazard
observations. They are prompted by lit
tie ripples on the political surface, the
significance OF which close observers are
beginning TO appreciate.
To speak palmer, the advocates OF
Hughes are making discoveries. They
are striking a tran. Also, they are find
ing that II leads directly 10 the White
House And they are much mistaken
II the President is not taking a personal
view Of Hughes-maklng a personal mat
ter Of his expanding dimensions II the
word has not gone forth, IL Will be sent
out in due time.

Oklahoma 10 BE Admired

President Roosevelt has taken the
proper course in deciding 10 proclaim the
admission Of the new State of Okla
hema, in spite of his dislike OF certain
features Of its constitution. We take
leave to doubt whether his opinion Of
that document is unfit for publication. 80
as severa! eminenuy respectable contem-
poraries assert, but whatever il is. Mr.
Roosevelt has done well not to permit
mere difference of judgment as to the
wisdom of Oklahoma legislation 10 stand
in the way of the performance of a
clear public duty. The legislation so
distasteful to the PresAent he frankly
recognizes to be 'whollyf@ithin the com
petence Of a sovereign State to enact.
and as it IS satisfactory TO the people
Of that State, he has no responsibility
for it and no authority To exclude the
new Commonwealth from the Union on
account of il.
Moreover, by determining To admit
Oklahoma, Mr.. Roosevelt has cleared his
skirts Of any sympathy with the un-
savOTy political plot hatched by sundry
Republican leaders for the exclusion of
the new State on merely partisan
grounds. As soon as it appeared GER
tain that the new State would be Dem
ocratic in its political complexion. these
leaders began the manufacture Of color
able reasons for refusing admission.
These they affected 10 discover IN vari-
Gus features Of the constitution which
We're thought 10 be "pOpulistic." and 50
antagonistic to the republican form of
government" which IS imposed on every
State by the terms of the Federal Con.
stitution. We are glad to hear that the
specious pleas Of politicians, even Of his
own party, have not in this instance
availed TO lead the President into the
commission Of a fiagrant wrong. The
people OF Oklahoma will get a square
deal. so far as Statehood is concerned

MEN AND THINGS.
sIr. Irving Bachelor.

The fact that Mr.. Irving Bachelor has
spent the greater part of his life Ia New
York City will seem surprising 20 those
readers who have come to know him as
writer with keen relish for out-of-
door life and a striking appreciation Of
rural wit and wisdom. Yet the author Of
"Eben Holden" was actively connected
with the press Of New York for many
years. and until recently was one Of the
editors Of a busy New York newspaper.
His love for the country Is instructive
ana deep-roOted, however. and he never
lost II. even IN the busiest years Of bis
New York work Most Of his time now Is
spent either az a favorite spot on Long

found affection for the country there goes
naturally the insight into country charac-
ter which stamps MS work as a literary

charities must be cared for, and there
are always many individuals who look

estimated that never less than $500 is
