BOSTON. Nov. 10.-Athough Presi- dent Roosevelt does not appear to nave reached the height of his ambition of a larger plurality, both popular and electoral. for the republican candidate to succeed himself, the election vic tory is so sweeping in New York, the cast and other points that, consider ing all the candidates and factors in the field, Mir. Rosevelt's victory this time is even greater than four years age.
 MT. Roosevelt started this campaign with the handicap of a financial panic and business depression, with Wall street and a large section of the ffnan ciaI, railroad and business interests ol the country arrayed against him, ye' with suca a popular following when Il comes to votecounting that there were only three dangers in the cam paign:
 First, the danger of inertia and no money for the republican campaign; {; second. that Roosevelt might lose Tn popular estimation and be regarded aa an octopus or power trust pepet- uating himself through Taft; and, third, the danger of some vocal slip Ia Bu-chard.
 What looked like the first slip In the campaign was the report that President Roosevelt's son-tn-law hau declared in favor of Roosevelt as the successor of Taft, four years hence. But before the democrats could catch the opportunity this was denied and the democrats never seemed to have the ability to see that that was the only issue-the perpetuation of a Roosevelt-Taft dynasty-upon whicn the American people could be reused.
 The democrats never seemed to be able to discuss the activities of Roose- welt or catch the lesson every public man should learn from 70,000,000 Americans shouting themselves hoarse lin welcome to Dewey; the hero of Manila Bay, and then as quickly turn ing from him when be vacillated over the courtesy appertaining to a gift intended for himself, but which he took to be a family affair.
 President Roosevelt, however. never forgot and doesn't hesitate to tell his friends that he has always looked forward, whenever he has had the maximum of popular approval. to the time when he would get the maximum of popular disfavor
 There was only one way in which

the democratic party could have thrown Roosevelt or his policies into disfavor with the people and that was to raise the old Roman cry, "Upo.i what meat does this our Ceasar feed that he has grown so great" But the democratic party evidently feared and lodged the issue of Roosevelt s greatness.
 In its early stages the campaign lacked, snap; 1t lacked personality There was nothing personal that could be added concerning Bryan, Taft or Roosevelt. But the new state of OK lahoma and it's governor supplied the personalities and the snap. White House dignity was of no moment when Mir. Taft's campaign needed pepper as well as salt.
 When the campaign needed money MT. Roosevelt had only to throw ono card On the table and say, Certainly gentlemen, button up your pocket books, help Mir. Bryan all you like, but I shall be shooting in Africa when MT. Bryan and his political associates are making for you in the next four years just twenty-three new United States judges, of whom five will De United States Supreme Court justices. You can look ahead in the calendar and see how long it will take to unco that record if you think you can put Bryan in for four years as a rebuke to Roosevelt and undo your work next election day"
 The money came down on the table to the extent that Mir. Sheldon, the treasurer of the republican national committee, quickly smiled and said he had all the money he wanted
 Then came the danger of the real Burchard, John D. Rockefeller Mir. Rockefeller is as simple as a child in his manners and conversation He has been the butt of the laughter Of his friends for a long time because he really cannot see why he would not himself make a good President of the United States He says, in ef- feet: T am as good an organizer. business man ard judge of the fitness of men as can be found; what the United States needs in it's diplomatic service, It's consular service, and, in fact, in all it's executive branches is a good business man who Is a good or ganizer and good judge of men.

LEFT VIII nONORS OF WAR
Parting Shot of Little Sostonese
Withered Up Young Phila-
deIphian.

It was at the seaside that the lit.
tie fellows met, the one from Boston,
the other Philadelphia. Being just
six and eight respectively, they did
not as yet realize the great social dis
tinction between them. They became
fast friends.
1t was after a long, trying day on
the beach that the quarrel began.
Hot words tumbled over one another
with furious speed.
ooh, you're bughouse" said the
little Philadelphia.
For a moment there was silence.
Then a panied expression fitted over
the Bostonian Youngsters face. That
was the last straw.
With head held proudly and with
stately mien he made as if to leave,
and in dignifed silence. But, human
nature prevailing, he could not leave
without one parting thrust.
owe don't say bughouse in Bos-
ton; it isn't elegant. We say beetle

that in future he would keep away
from sordid types of this character

is NOT DONE FOR ECONOMY
Real Reason for Popularity Noticeable
in Cigarettes Smoked by
Russians.

"a good many men, said to-
bacconist the other day, task me
about the peculiar shape of the
mouthpiece of Russian cigarettes.
The Russians, you know, put hol-
low cylinder of fine pasteboard on
the end of the cigarette which is put
into the mouth. The tobacco ends
where this pasteboard cylinder be-
gins. Most people suppose the idea
is to enable you to smoke all the
tobacco to your cigarette, believing
the ears subjects to be an economi-
cal lot, see? But that's not the real
inwardnesses. of the scheme. It's the
only explanation Americans are like
ly to think of, because they haven't
the reason here which forces the
Russians to make their cigarettes as
they do. The fact is, the st. Peters
burg crowd are a bearded lot, and
their whiskers don't do thing to the
average Egyptian of Turkish cigar
cite. Your Russian is shy on risking
a confagration in his chin adorn-
ments, so he stops the tobacco part
of the cigarette an inch outside his
mouth boundaries. And that's the
reason Of the little cylindrical mouth
piece"

COLLEGE HONORS.

1t is safe to say that with young
women from all the nations on earth
competing for, and carrying off, col
lege honors, they will be acknowl-
edged to be rivals that have to be
reckoned with. The Agnes B. Rob-
inson Mesner prize in anatomy, given
in competitive examination to stu
dent of the second year at the Phila-
delphia Woman's Medical college,
has just been awarded to Olivia Sala-
manca of Cavite, Philippine Islands.
Another member Of the same class
is Miss Ethel Das, from Ferezepore,
small town in the foothills of the
Himalayas, near Lahore. Both of
these young women will practice
medicine in their native countries.

OPENING MESoPoTAMIA.

While the Bagdad railway still lin
gers on its way eastward the fertile
delta of the Euphrates is being slow
ly but surely developed by the Daira
Sanieh Of the sultan. Large new
areas are being brought under cult
walton, the riverine trade is increas-
ing rapidly and the railway, when it
reaches its goal, will traverse for the
last 200 miles of its route district
where much has been done to repair
the neglect of centuries. With the
opening up of the country to trade
and the increase of cultivation the
demand for mechanical appliances
of every description is bound to in
crease, and the Egyptian Gazette
learns from a well informed source
that there is already a considerable
demand for oil pumps at Basra and
Bagdad.

LATEST NATURE FAKE.

miles south of Poplar Bluff, Mo-, E..
Emory, timberman, fired every bull
let he had in a squirrel rifle without
bringing the animal down. The cata-
mount closed in on him and would
probably have killed him had not
Emory thought of his watch chain,
composed of bullets he had saved
while private in the First Tenncs-
see regiment at Manila. Jerking off
the chain, Emory loaded his rifle,
using powder from his horn flask,
and succeeded in killing the animal
just as it was lunging toward him..
