London, June 9.--col. Roosevelts last
day in England has been something OF
mystery. The reporters acceded TO his
request that they should not pursue him.
and beyond the fact that he spent many
hours In the New Forest. which. by the
way, has been preserved as a forest for
more than 500 years. little is known Of his
doings.
According TO one version, Col Roose-
welt. In talk with Foreign Minister Grey
concerning hfs approaching departure.
expressed a wish 10 tramp the English
countryside, which Is now in its fullest
beauty. and to hear English song birds
in fun chorus. Sir Edward Grey, who
is a keen ornithologist, and who is other
wise equipped for companionship with a
sportsman, offered himself as Col. Roose-
velt's companion and guide in the New
Forest. where wild life can be observed
TO the fullest. The pair took a train
from London this morning and alighted
at the northern boundary of the forest
They walked for many hours in its Wild
est recesses, The weather was ideal, They
stayed tonight at a country mn.
VIII Not Return to London
Another version is that they are spend
ing the night in the woods, identifying
the voices Of nocturnal birds and await
ing the outburst OF song which accom-
panies the dawn. Col. Roosevelt win not
return to London. He viii join his
family at Southampton.
During three weeks, Col Roosevelt has
ceiyed something like 1900 letters. a ma
jority Of them since his Guildhail
speech Some Of these were frankly
but politely dlssentant and some were
roundly abusive. Most, however. were
apprecietive. and as many OF them came
from prominent persons Col. Roosevelt
was much gratified. In addition 20 these
letters there were the usual requests for
autographs and photographs, protests
and pleadings against Staying wild ami
mails and numerous other topics.

For sunday shows.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
l see by the STAR that the sheriff
intends stopping all Sunday shows, etc,
next Sunday. / am surprised, His
cry is always for the laboring man :?
This spirit shows the opposite. The
working a after a weeks toll, finds
his only recreation in a Sunday amuse-
ment, such as a picture show or a de-
cent theatre performance. If these are
in violation of the law as doing bust
ness on Sunday, why moi make a blue
law and close up churches, 100? They
are doing business; they pay their min
listers to preach on Sundays, run en-
t~ertainments and take up a collection
from the people.
All respect for the churches, but a
working man or woman should be
given some liberty as long as he
enjoys that liberty in a quiet and or
derby manner People coming from
theatres on Sunday come and go in
just as orderly a name as when go
ing to church. Is this the liberty the
American people craved and the ON
~stitution gave them, which is now de-
MED them? Let all the people observe
the Sabbath in a religious and enjoy
able way, too. Il. Il.

ment that were drawn up by the orig
inal settlers.
Among the demands by the Indians
was four barrels and two mixers of
liquor for all of the lane from the
Newark bay to the Orange mountains.
1t appears from the records that the
Indians liked the taste of the rum so
much that when they sold the Orange
mountains to white men, in 1877, they
stipulated thirteen cans of rum among
the items for the sale. 1t is also a
matter of record that the first industry
started in Newark was the manufae-
ture of rum.
Thus it may be seen that if the pro-
hibitionists have any fault to fiji
about the existence of SO much beer
and whiskey in Newark and the other
cities of Essex county they must
blame the early settlers, who not only
brought the stuff here from Connect
cut, but also made it. And the d
part of the whole thing is that Newark
was controlled, according to the old
records, by church people. INDIAN.

STRANGLING VOTING MACHINE REPEALERS.

5Ta HE two bills. containing a few words, for the repeal of the
voting machine act were among the first TO be introduced in
the Legislature. The Senate bill is numbered SO and the
House bill A.. Senator Alderman, chairman of the Senate judiciary
committee. which also includes Wakelee. holds the Senate bill. and
AssembIyman Poole. of Monmouth, chairman of the elections com.
mittee of the House. has the House bill. The bills were introduced
January II. and since then the Legislature has met and adjourned
for seven weeks. II is evident these bills are undergoing the process
Of strangulation. 1t is evident. also, that the clearly expressed
wishes of the voters of the State. recorded in overwhelming ma
iorities and conveyed to the present Legislature in the Governors
annual message, are being held in contempt by the ruling power in
the Legislature, which is thus serving the selfish interests of the
voting machine trust.

To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
Dear Sir-Now hat President TAFT
has come and gone, just a week ago
today, don't you think that 1t is about
time that the columns erected in his
honor at the Four Corners were re-
moved? They have served their pur-
pose and served it well, but they are
certainly beginning to look pretty
dingy. Once they were white. but look
at them now! Besides this there are
sundry vagrant bits of rope around
them that are quite unsightly. Their
bases, too, are beginning to show the
effects OF the small boys work. and

THE SITUATION IN PHLADELPH IA.

AVHA the Philadelphia City Councils will do today, under the
WV whip and spur of their political masters, to end the perilous
strike situation in the city, it is hard to say at this writing.
In view of what is likely to happen if one hundred thousand work
men, infamed against the traction company, walk out of their places
of employment on Saturday morning, a heavy responsibility rests
upon the Councils. Mayor Reyburn, whose signature is needed to
give effect to any action by the Councils, is obstinately opposed to
any action except by the police and military. He may be called off
by the political leaders to whom he owes his office and authority.
and the matter, therefore, really rests with them.
