PULITZER Is GOlNG TO
RESIDE IN BERLIN
Editor New York World Is
Going There

New York, Oct. 2.-Joseph Pulitzer
proprietor of the New York World
takes UP his permanent residence in
Berlin. The Germans welcome him
with gusto in contrast to the focking
of rich Americans to Paris or London.
He goes to the German capital with 16
servants and will live in a most fash
ionable part of the town, having made
for himself the most remarkable ca
reer of any immigrant from Prussia
into the United States. The proper
tons Of it are best seen in the un-
doubted fact that as an unofficial am
bassador from the United States Mr..
Pulitzer may easily do much to keep
serene, substantial relations of har-
mony between the United States and
the great military power of Europe.
1t is not only possible. 1t is extremely
well worth keeping in mind.

CANT BE A PREACHER
AND STILL BE HONEST"
Declares a Dominic Who
Quits The Job

Lawrence, Kan, Oct 2.--"I don't be-
lieve minister of the gospel can lead
an honest life now" was the startling
statement by Rev. d. +. Carrick, after
he had resigned the pastorate of the
North Lawrence Christian church. Mr..
Carrick has given up his ambition to
teach the religion of Christ and has
accepted a job with the Lawrence
Street Railway Company as con-
ductor
THE public never sees behind the
screen of the pastors home" said Mr..
Carrick, cor it might realize the trials,
the griefs and pains the pastor and
his wife are forced to bear
"a preachers wife can not even
make a pretense of dressing or dining
well or the people will think they
are paying their pastor too much, or
that he ought to save part of his sal
airy and give it to the missions. He
can not put on pair of patent leather
shoes without every single person whe
has contributed the smallest mite to-
ward his salary looking at them as if
to say, i helped to pay for those
shoes; there's where our money goes.
mo, sir; | don't believe a preacher
can live a really honest life. If he
breaches the truth he will be con-
demning the lives of most of his con-
gregation and condemning them"

thousands of women who have been

he was longer on the road. Starting
out in 1917 from Washington on May
81, Monroe visited Baltimore. Philadel-
phia, Trenton, New York, Hartford and
Boston. The railways had not yet APP
peared, but the steamboat had made
its advent on some Of the country's
waterways. New York a few weeks
hence will celebrate the one hundredth
anniversary of the appearance Of Full
toms Clermont on the Hudson Ste
vens placed a steamboat on the Della
ware soon afterward. In 1911 Nicho-
las J. Roosevelt, the recent presidents
granduncle, launched the New Orleans
at Pittsburg, and it went down the
Ohio and the Mississippi to engage in
the trade between New Orleans and
Natchez In the summer Of 1917 the
General Pike, the first steamboat which
appeared on the Mississippi north of
the mouth of the Ohio, tied up at the
levee in st. Louis. A steamboat was
launched on Lake Ontario in 1916.
Monroe Penetrated Wilderness.
The new method Of transit, there
fore. had become somewhat familiar
to few people on few water courses
by the time that Monroe started on his
tour in 1917 He Travelled by it on the
Delaware, the Hudson, Long Island
sound and wherever else he could util-
lie it. But for only short distances,
and only in a few spots, was it avail
able. Monroe went as far north as
Portland, Me-, that locality at that
time being still part Of Massachusetts,.
Then, by way of New Hampshire, Yer
mont and New York, he pushed west
as far as Detroit, which was on the
extreme verge Of frontier settlement
at that time Kentucky, Tennessee,
Ohio, Louisiana and Indiana were the
only states on the sunset side of the
Alleghenies then. Detroit had only
few hundred inhabitants, and Michi-
gan did not become a state until twenty
years later Monroe penetrated far In
the wilderness on his trip. Returning
by way of GAINESVILLE, Pittsburg and
Fredericktown, reaching Washington
on Sept. II, he was three and a half
months absent. No other president
until Johnson covered as much terri
tory on any trip which he made.

tribute to the services of the war
Democrats, failure was certain.
During his eight years in the White
House Grant travelled much and far.
and this called out resolution from
the Democratic house of representa-
tives in 1876 asking Grant what execu.
tive duties had been transacted by
presidents while away from the seat
of government. This gave him a
chance to counter on his enemies,
which he did effectually. In a special
message he gave a long list of alb
sences from the national capital by
most of his predecessors, along to and
including Buchanan, and told some of
the executive acts which they perform
ed while away. The revelations sur
prised the country and silenced Grants
critics. Garfield was beginning his
contemplated tour of New England
when he was shot By Guiteau on July
2, 1881. Arthur made one or two trips
which took him long distances from
the capital. In 1887 Cleveland, then in
his first term, made a trip which took
him into the Mississippi valley. AS he
had been married only about a year
( at the time his wife received much
attention on the tour In 1891, in the
latter half Of his service, Harrison
! made long trip to the west and
south. The trip on which Mckinley
started in 1901 and which was ended
by his assassination in Buffalo was in
number Of miles covered the longest
which had been made by any president.
AS in many other things, Roosevelt
broke the record in length of presiden-
tial tours, and he also called out more
tumultuous greetings than any of his
predecessors had received. During his
service in the White House he visited
nearly every state and was in all the
territories. Moreover, he went out
side the country's boundaries, going
to Panama and spending several days
there. He contemplated a visit to
Alaska, too, but pressing duties pre-
vented that trip. AS member of an
/ administration whose representatives
covered a larger portion Of the globe
