Appeal to authority may be so
slavish or so trivial as to dishonor the
authority and make the appellant r.
diculous. Did Lincoln approve OF re-
ducing the tariff on wool, and II wood
pulp had been in use in his day, what
would he have thought of the tariff on
that? What was Paul Jones view of
the need of an American naval station
In the Yappi Yappi islands? Would
Thomas Jefferson have sanctioned a
course in Celtic in an American uni
versity? What would Jackson have
thought of the Aldrich currency bill?
These questions are no more absurd
than many which are seriously dis
cussed in journals and assembly halls.
Great men are great precisely be-
cause they act in obedience to princi.
pies which are too deep and broad to
bind the answers to specific questions
which arise in after times.

Years of Activity.

Washington, June President
Roosevelt's announcement Friday that
Immediately after his retirement from
the presidency he would 60 on two
years hunting trip in British East
Africa with his son Kermit is in the
nature of reply to a persistent
aggregation Of third term agitators
who have been bombarding him with
kilograms demanding his acceptance
of the Republican nomination for the
presidency II 1t is rendered. These
dispatches may and may not have
been inspired from the same source,
but every indication points to the fact
that they were forwarded to the
White house as part of concerted
movement.
In the meanwhile, the third term
boomers who persist In believing that
the president doesn't know his own
mind have again become active am
are engaged In desperate attempt to
arouse public sentiment in favor Of
third term on the eve of the Chicago
convention. The president cannot
continue to publicly repeat the state
ment that under no circumstances will
he be a candidate for the presidency,
although he tells callers as much
almost every day.
But his plans for the future are abb
solutely determined upon and he will
not be swerved from his programme.
That the president does not intend
permanently to retire from active par.
ticipation in American politics Is just
as well settled as that he will not
permit himself to be made candidate
for the presidency in 1908. He is too
young, too vigorous and there Is too
much for him to do for him to place
himself on a political shelf.

A Chinese newspaper, edited by a
Chinaman, but printed in English, has
been started in Peking. 1t is called
Chinese Public Opinion, and the mis-
sion Of the publication Is to give ex.
preston to Chinese sentiment with re-
gard to the empires International
position. Possibly this innovation may
also have an important significance as
indicating the trend which, 1t is al
legged, exists In China towards the
adoption Of English as the common

1t is fine sign of the times that in
the churches of America the question
of citizenship has the front place. The
preachers Of all denominations are
emphasizing the point of active, ag-
gressive morality. They are making
livery uncomfortable for the man who
has different codes for business, poll
tics and Sunday. They are showing
the glazing weakness of any religion
that finds excuses for Its members be-
cause they think the preaching Of
Sunday should not be closely applied
to the practices Of Monday. A nations
safety is in its clean, moral, honest
citizenship, remarks the Baltimore
American. And the churches are doing
. noble work in educating and stimu
lating the civic conscience.

DODGE CRY,
The Secret On Happiness


1t Is just as impossible for psT-son
z 10 reach the normal state Of harmony
while he is practicing selfish, grasping
aims, as it is to produce harmony In
m orchestra with instruments that
are all tangled and out of tune. TO be
happy, we must be in tune with the
Infinite within us, in harmony with our
better selves. There Is no way to get
around it. 1t is silly for a man to say
that this is 'goody-goody' philosophy.
1t is scientific truth. The idea that
we can practice wrong in our voca
lions, in our dealings with men, or In
our pleasures, and then periodically
seek forgiveness in our prayers or
through our churches-the idea that
man can do wrong and be forgiven
without remedying the wrong, or with
out forsaking the sin, says Orison
SWEET Marden, in Success Magazine,
has done more harm than almost any
other thing in civilization. A clear
conscience, a clean life, the elimina-
ton Of selishness, jealousy envy and
hatred, are necessary to all high en-
joyment. One trouble with many OF
as is that we try to make happiness
too complicated an affair. But happi-
ness really fees from complication,
ceremony, and pretense. Nature has
fixed her everlasting edict against
complicated living You can never
force pleasure; II must be natural, and
come from sane living.
