be based on his private capacity but on his public antecedents. In politics Mir Roosevelt Is too masterful a figure to make the role of free lance either safe or profitable.
 The final objection is that America in relegating her ex-Presidents to the ranks Is losing a great asset. The President Is the chief executive officer of the republic, he Is the true American foreign office; he is the head of the army and the navy. His experience, even during one term of office, is so wide and varied that he becomes most valuable adviser on all public questions. Tn the case of one who has served two terms this experience is unique, Such man has had a polit- cal training far more useful than any to be met with in congress or In the senate. He has acquired the habit of treating great affairs in a large spirit, and he Is not to be befogged by any complexity of detail. He Is true ex- pert in statesmanship, and as such should be kept always on call. It is surelN the nelgnt or lolly to uflVe such men out of politics altogether, or, If thye retain their political interests, to
 force them into Journalism for an out let Let the state retain their services by as we have said, placing them on

But every eN-President may not be SO happily situated We can imagine a great First Citizen, man with n real genius for politics, who would be hard put to for example would have done badly at the bar, we are convinced, if he had had to rest on his merits as a pleader; and If Mir Gladstone had had to make his way, say at the age of 50 in pro- fesSion. we do not feel that his pro- gress would have been very fast The whole idea seems to us barbarous and uncivic, man who Is a true states man by profession. who has dedicated his best years to the service of his country should not be cast off when ] his term of service is accomplished.

An article from the Nashville, Tenn,

er's visit to that city, throws some
light on the remarkable success OF the
voung mans theories and medicines
in various cities visited by him during
the past year. The article is as fol-
lows:
"In view of the enormous sale OF
Cooper's preparations now going on in
this city and the intense interest
which Mr.. Cooper has stirred up since
his arrival. a representative Of the
Banner spent Thursday afternoon at
the young mans headquarters, watch
ing the swarm of humanity come and
go.
During the afternoon the reporter
interviewed many of the callers and
obtained statements from all who
cared to give them as to their expe'
rience with Cooper and his prepare
tions.
1.-The following are selected from
those statements as being typical Of
the general expression of the people
seen:
"Mr. B. B. Lasater, living at 1922

said: 4 have been a sufferer from
