NEWSPAPER EOlToRIAlLY, IN

NEW YORK. Nov l0.-The World
In calling editorially for the elecuon
OF President Roosevelt for unitea
States senator from New York To sue
coed Platt, when Roosevelt leaves the
White House. says III part:
The dignity OF the office is shock'
ingly lowered when a president Of the
United States at the end OF his term
is thrust into private life 10 shift for
living for himself and family as
best he can. II is not seemly that
Grant should lend his name 10 firm

land should be compelled TO accept

should have TO appear before the
United States supreme court TO argue

Much as We respect the profession

ment from the White House. Inc
president is the one CONSTITUTIONAL Al
officer In the American government
who is the representative OF all the
people. and after his term has ex
pired his influence and experience
should be retained by the people IN
tho interest OF the general welfare.
Least OF all should he be EXPORTED
Ike a patent liver pill or new SKIN
soap.
For this reason, as a fundamental
question of principle. The World has
long urged that retiring president
should receive a pension OF at ~east
$4,000 a year and that he Should
have a seat in the senate. There Is
no better way Of setting this highly
desirable reform In motion than lor
New York 10 make Mr. RooseVeN .
United States senator.
Moved BY Public Veal.
aIn advocating Mr.. Aoosevelt's cleo
ton 10 the senate The World Is moved
only by public considerations. WITH
out doubt we should be compelled 10
criticize Senator Roosevelt quite as
severely as we have ever crticlzed
President Roosevelt. We should ex-
pect to be abused by him quite as
viciously and vindictively as he abuses
everybody who tells the truth about
him. We should expect that as sena-
tor he would continue to manifest
some OF the worst faults he has shown
as chief executive: but for all that
the senate itself would restrain MS
violence, curb his impetuosity. check
his impulsiveness. chain his superb.
bundant energy and give him the best
possible field for exercising his un-
questioned talents for the public good.
by all means let the New York leg
islature elect Theodore Roosevelt a
senator in the congress Of the United
States to succeed Thomas {. Piatt.

POOLING THE AMERICANS.
Rhine Wine Merchants Boast % their
Deceptions.

There is much interesting sugges-
tion In the frank way in which a con-
vention of 1900 wine growers at Oes-
trich-on-the-Rhine discussed their bust
ness, and especially that part OF it re-
lating to the export trade to the Uni
ted States. 1t was openly stated that
Rhine wines which are favorites with
the American people are often falsely
labeled, and the further explanation
was given that almost no genuine
Niersteiner goes to the United States"
because the exporters trust to "Ameri-
can lack of experience with wines to
escape detection" In other words.
spurious products are unhesitatingly
palmed off on Americans, who pay
good prices for them. This admission
OF the practice of deliberate fraud
should have effect One way to avoid
being thus imposed on, says Troy
Times, is not to drink wine.

SNe -ESA ~
Southern Baptist Convention Urges
Temperance Legislation.

The following communication was
passed by the Southern Baptist con-
vention In favor of temperance
amendment to the present interstate
commerce law:
Whereas, The greatest enemy of
the cause of Christ, which we, as a
convention, in part represent, is the
legalized liquor traffic:
Whereas, All of the states compos-
Ing this convention have more or less
OF prohibition territory within their
borders:
Resolved. That we respectfully.
but earnestly, request the proper OFF,
Gals OF our national government not
to issue privilege taxes for the sale of
liquor where its sale is prohibited by
the laws of the state.
That we urge our senators and rep
resentatives in congress to pass the
Responsibilities bill, or the Little
feld-Carmack bill, or some similar
measure, making liquor shipped from
one state to another subject to the
laws OF the state into which 1t is i'm
ported"

Some one hard up for a subject II
seems, has suggested discussion of the
question. Are literary persons III
mannered?" In this connection a story
Is told Of minor author who went Wis
iting In a Boston home. During the
evening he asked the hostess IL she
would ask the guests to retire into
the little room adjoining the large
room In which they were gathered, as
he wanted the large room in which to
mediate. While It is recorded that
the Boston woman granted his re-
quest and crowded her guests into a
small space. II is not likely that a
hostess In any other part OF the ooun-
try would have taken the request seri-
ously so this exhibition OF bad man
ners must be set down TO the exagEer-
ated idea OF hospitality and not the
literary propenslties Of the man.

No LoophoIes There.

Eugene Walter, the extraordinarily
successful young playwright, said at
a recent dinner in his honor In New
York:
The playwright, to succeed, must
make his point inevitably. Every point.
by fair means or foul, must be cap
tured. Not a loophole, for failure to
creep In. may be left"
Mr.. Walter smiled.
In fact" said he, the playwright
must be as sure of his point as was
the young lady who took advantage
OF the present leap year to propose.
She didn't give me a chance. her
husband explained afterward 10 a

me? Have you any objection?" Thus.

cor course there are, in England
and In France. many animate relics Of
the sherry and port wine drinking age,
Just as the age of bar lcafing is still
represented in certain quarters. But
these are survivals, and it is perfectly
fair to say that the great days of wine
drinking are over. People take little
whisky, perhaps a glass of port or
claret occasionally, sometimes little
champagne. Put, for the rest, this is
not the age of Bergundy, sherry, and
two bottles OF port at dinner. 1t Is an
age OK common-sense in the matter of
eating and drinking. The children's
teeth have been set ON edge-or, rath-
err, their bones having been set aching
with govt and rheumatism-by the
fathers consumption Of adulterated
wines, they have decided to drink lit

ShaW's Life Principle.

Leslie M. Shaw of Iowa, formerly
secretary Of the treasury, has a story
on tap to At almost every situation
that presents itself. He was gov
ernor of Iowa when President Roose-
welt invited him to become a member
OF his cabinet. He went TO Washing
ton In response to a summons from
the White House. While Mr.. Shaw's
appointment had been rumored, it had
not been announced officially, and a
persistent rumor was in circulation to
the effect that he would not accept the
cabinet offer. Several correspondents
waited OIL Mr.. Shaw at his hotel to
learn his intentions regarding the mat
ter.

started off one day on a fishing trip
with another boy. We had a long
tramp to the fishing place, and as the

Intense life, is now deserted.
To Its previous animation has sue

IL Is because every evening after six
o'clock work is over I'm the English

immense labor organization stops.

doors open wide, cast into the street

Saloon Money for Inebriates.

A movement is on in Cleveland to
apply a portion of the money received
by the city for saloon taxes to the
establishing of a home for the treat
ment of inebriates. Several promi-
nent Cleveland women are interested
in the project. A meeting has been
feld and committee appointed to
look into the possibilities of the idea.
In connection with the institution
would be operated home where
drunkards could remain after being
treated and recuperate their energies
and vitality before being once more
thrust out into a world of temptation.

is good dead TO be said in favor OF

A Move Toward Prohibition.

In Sweden the central committee OF
the w. G. t. U. is pushing a PROPOSE
ton to have, on suitable day, a ref
erendum taken throughout the length
and breadth of the land, to determine
whether the majority of the Swedish
people desire the prohibition of the
sale of alcohol or not The recent ac.
ton of the lower house of the national
parliament in declaring for prohibition
gave the first impulse to this move
ment, the carrying through of which
