Teddy's Day to Shout.

Of course it is Theodore Roosevelt's
day to shout, and we would not If we
could inhict upon him the terrible pun
ishment of silence, says the Philadel-
phia Record. But the election is not
much of victory for him after all. The
country elected Mr.. Taft not because
he was Mr.. Roosevelt's candidate, but
in spite of it. After the turmoil and
agitation and distrust which he has sue
ceeded in inflicting upon the country,
the voters took Mr.. Taft because he as
the most conservative of all the candi-
dates in the field. There was legisla-
ton in restraint of corporoatinS and
there were prosecutions of corporations
before the Roosevelt era, and they
aroused no public distrust and did not
knock the bottom out of the market.
Mckinley and Harrison maintained the
right of the community to protect it
self from mismanaged corporations,
but they did not threaten anybody !;
they dlu not attack wealth., property OF
even corporate management. Under
Mr.. Taft there be further corporation
legislation and there may be pr0secu-
tions of railroads and industrials. But
there will be no such language in mes
sages to Congress, in speeches and let
tiers for publication, as the President
has been distinguished for, and the
ordinary course of legislation and liti-
cation will proceed as it did before
Theodore Roosevelt anointed himself
as the apostle of righteousness, the
general manager of the United States,
and the placator of the social revolu-
ton, which, so far as it exists at all,
is of his own creation.

A Republican Congress.

When, after his Inauguration next
March, President Taft calls the Sixty
first Conrgess together in special ses-
sion he will have Republican majority
in both houses to carry out that policy
of tariff revision to which ne is per-
sonally pledged by his public utter
ances, and to which his party is bound
by its platform promises. While the
majority is not so overwhelmingly as
that elected with Theodore Roosevelt
fur years ago. and while Democratic
gains in such States as Colorado, Ohio,
Pennsylvania, Kentucky and Iowa are
not without significance, the House is
still strongly, the Senate overwhelm-
ingly Republican.
There has been no Democratic Con-
gress since the one elected with
Grover Cleveland in 1892. That Con-
gress. the Fifty-third, contained in the
Senate 44 Democrats, SO Republicans
and 8 Populists, and in the House I'll
dial wave majority of 22O Democrats to
l26 Republicans. Two years later
both branches of Congress became Re-
publican and they have so remained.
The Roosevelt tidal wa 7e of 1904 car
ried $50 Republicans info office as Rep
resentatives and left only SO Demo-
Gratis; the Senate in the new Congress
stood So to 81. The present Senate
has two-thirds Republican majority,
81 to 81; and in the House there are
now 224 Republicans and 167 Demo-

Gratis. These proportions will not be
greatly changed as to relieve the ma
jority party of its full measure of leg
islative responsibility.
The chief "stand-patter" of the
country must preside over a tariff-re-
vision House, unless platform pledges
are made only to be broken. Speaker
Cannon won in the Eighteenth Illinois
District two years ago by 10, 90 votes.
The campaign against him this year
has been one of extraordinary vigor
and virulence and has attracted nation
al attention. He is apparently elected
by greatly reduced plurality to pre-
side over the framing and passage of q
reformed tariff

Trusts are Trusts.

Speaking of trusts, says the Todd
County Progress? We want to ask our
good farmer friends what they think of
the bunch of thieves that compel US
poor devils on country paper to pay
$12 more ton for the white paper we
use than he did several years ago,
while the cost of producing paper has
increased only 60 cents per ton? There
can't be anything meaner than the To-
bacco Trust, but there are others that
come pretty near reaching that stage
of highway robbery.

Speaks Well of Him.

The Chicago Record-Herald, a Re-
publican paper, says:
"Mr. Bryan's ambition was thorough
ly legitimate and honorable. He I'M
doubtedIy wished and hoped to serve
the country with single-minded devo-
ton. But he has the consolation of
knowing that, albeit in different
spirit and after a different manner, the
main policies which he has eloquently
advocated in common with Roosevelt
and Taft will be continued and extend
ed.
Moreover, Mr.. Bryan has nobly and
sincerely preached to his fellOwmen
and peace that is the reward of con-
science void of offense toward God and
man." The humblest citizen, he has
said, can secure that peace, that salts
faction, equally with Inn who Yields
great Power. Mr.. Bryan willsnever DE
'ahumble citizen forshe is too gifted
for such a role. He.has strong hold
on the affection of millions, and as an
orator, writer and moral leader his
place is high among the cOntemporar-
les. High it will remain, and his
third defeat after a brilliant campaign
should bring him no bitterness and
lasting sorrow"

Lime Water Good for Teeth.

Physicians who have experimental
believe that excellent results are OBJ
tanned for the teeth by the use of SIM
pie lime water. 1t is claimed that the
reason of the fine bony structures of
people and horses in the bluegrass
region of Kentucky is due to the lime

mild amount of lime taken into the
system when a child will improve the
structural condition of the teeth.

A few days later he had one of
the orders cashed at the Laurel ex-
press office for fifty and he succeeded
in passing the other two orders on
two Gulfport firms.
At Hattiesburg, he gave his name
as J. G. Brown and at Gulfport he
said he was L. ]. King.

bank checks also. One for $40, he

The gentlemen were seen by bress
representative at their rooms al the
Hotel Hutto and talked freely of fheir
plans which are soon to be pub, in
operation. The plant as it at prSs-
ent stands and is being operated,
represents but one-half of the indus
try which has been planned out; the
rosin will complete the industry. The
plant when completed and put in full
operation will have a capacity of 100
cords of wood daily. The work of
gathering this wood and operating
the plant will give employment to
several hundred workmen.
Mr.. Kerr, the general manager of
the DeSoto interests, has been sue
cessfully manufacturing paper from
yelloy pine for several years, and
states that the investment of the
company at Laurel is in nowise an
experiment. He states that the long
leaf yellow pine contains longer
and stronger fiber than the northern
spruce. which is used almost exclu-
sively for the manufacture of news
paper, and for that reason makes a
better quality. Especially is this true

The gentlemen express themselves
as being highly pleased with the pro.
gress their plant has been able to
make thus far, and state that if the
proper encouragement is extended to
them by the farmers, they expect to
remove every pine stump from the
farms throughout this section.

The charge for which Holloway

His liquidation of his indebtedness

as the county had much rather have
