ROOSEVELT TRIES
ON HIS NEW SHOES
Famous Hunting Boots
Complete His Equip
ment for Trip.

President Roosevelt today tried on
a pair of stout calfslIin shoes that viii
serve him during his coming African
hunt. After trying them on, the
President expressed satisfaction with
the ut. but directed the maker TO re-
enforce them with hobnails before
adding them TO his hunting outfit
Tie shoes were cut a trifle higher
than tire uppers of ordinary shoes,
this being done to insure additional
protection TO the Presidents ankles
when walking in the tall African
grass. To make them waterproof and
more comfortable TO the feet the shoes
were thoroughly soaked in refined OIL
The fitting of the Presidents feet
today is the last step toward complet-
ing his personal outfit for his African
hunt. His guns and ammunition are
all ready, and as far as equipment is
concerned he could be off on an hour s
notice if need be. Though he regards
the shoes he tried on today as suffi-
cient TO see him through his hunting
trip, il is probable he VIII take a
duplicate pair along just as precau-
tion against accident

JAPAN AND THE CALIFORNIA
LEGISLATURE.

Germany Is a federated empire, just
as the United States is a great fed
Grated republic. Suppose the United
States had a large number of its citi-
zens living in Prussia, one of the Ger
nsn states. Suppose there we're strong
prejudice against the Americans, and
iusistent demand in certain quarters
that they be excluded. Suppose that
the United States had made a treaty
with the German imperial government,
under which this country agreed to put
n end, by all means at its command,
TO the emigration of its people to Ger
many,
That would be parallel to the situa-
tion in Japan year ago.
Then suppose that Prussia, in which
most of the Objectionable Americans
had made homes, would proceed

eHt of the action of the imperial gov
erument, to announce that it didn't be

especially calculated to incense self-re-
specting Americans.
That would be a parallel to what
California is now doing to her japanese
residents.
How would the people Of the United

LOOK AWAYi LOOK AWAY
FOR THE SOUTH.

Dixie" is one of the tunes this news
paper likes. 1t is tune you can pat
time to. From st. Ignace to New Or
leans the whole country cheers it
North as we'll as South, BrahmiD New
England and slab-sided Rawhide alike.
Moreover. it is not at all impossible
that Dixie" Is to be the real national
anthem.
This latest controversy has given the
air new life. Nobody knows Just who
it was that declared the song treason
able. Southern newspapers say 1t was
Chicago. Chicago says it doesn't know
anything about it. But the charge got
into print, somebody resurreeted an
anecdote showing that Lincoln liked to
hear it, every theater orchestra IN the
country is awakening audiences to ap-
plaud with it mo matter whether the
play being acted does or mott, and the
outlook is that it will divide next Fri
days observsnces with the great Liber-
ator himself. After that Dixie" will
have the right Of way and an open
track.
From an attitude of real regard for
the air, this newspaper is not alto
gether pleased with that outlook.
Dixie is q sectional tune. 1t belongs
to the South. As the North sings it.
I wish I was IN Dixie" is only the
seal of a sectionalism that once existed
bitterly enough, goodness knows, but Is
now happily ended Even from this
point of view, however, the song is
significant OF an epoch, not OF the life
OF the nation, and it belongs to a part
of the country and not to the whole
of it. Let's sing Dixie" with all our
hearts, but don't let's forget "The Star.
Spangled Banner"

Under the strictest pledge % secrecy
insursent members OF Luther Place
Memorial Church, it is believed, have

It is admitted, would hinge. to a great

gents. Should their pastor refuse these

fected.

signal for an appeal to the synod, as
this body is the only means or recourse
in dispute of this kind.

that none had as yet been asked. and
until such time as they we're demanded
he would refuse to reveal his inten-
