ROOSEVELT'S JUDGMENT OF
HIMSELF.


Today Theodore Roosevelt deliv-
cred an address before the student
body of the University of Paris.
one of the Oldest, IL not the
oldest, of the great universities of
the world. Its students consti-
tute a select body of scholars from
every part OF the civilized world,
who secure there certain scientific
training which they cannot oDtnin
to an equally satisfactory degree
elsewhere, even at the great Ger
man universities; they are men
steeped in the knowledge of modern
advanced learning in all branches.
men who expect to devote their
lives to the attainment of knowl
edge and the advancement of
science. II there ever was gathered
together a body of men before
whom a speaker would be stripped
naked as to the soundness of his
logic and the truth of his culture, il
was faced today by Theodore Roose-
welt. What he said before them is
published in The Evening Sun to-
day, and for the first time, perhaps,
in the earth's history. a generation
has the opportunity to measure the
life and words and deeds of one OF
its own statesmen by his own stand
ard of ethics. We know that what
he SAYS before those scholars at the
University OF Paris must ring true
to sound logic and true culture
and we have the record of his ad'
ministration and his policies and
preachments upon the hustings be
fore us. The citizen OF America
who fails to read what Roosevelt
spoke to those sayants upon "Citi
zenship in a Republic" is MISSING
an opportunity to Judge for himself

the man who is actually in the
arena, whose face is marred by dust
and sweat and blood; who strives
valiantly; who errs, and comes short
again and again, because there IS no

do the deeds; who knows the great

on the man of cultivated taste who
permits refinement to develop into a
fastidiousness that units him for

who govern themselves there is but
small field of usefulness open for
the men of cloistered life who shrink

SUPREME COURT RULES ON
LIQUOR SALES TO INDIANS

Liquor may not be sold to Indians
who have severed tribal relations and
become citizens, declares the state su-
preme court in decision reversing the
Pierce county superior court and up
holding the constitutionality Of the
1900 law prohibiting sale Of liquors To
any one Of Indian blood. whether citi-
zens or members Of tribe.
It was contended that non-reserva-
ton Indians were citizens and could
not be Disseminated against.
The supreme court says the courts
have frequently upheld the constitu-
tionality OF laws which prohibit the
sale Of liquors to minors or to other
persons peculiarly liable to be injured
morally Or physically by such indulg.
ence, and that the enactment is not IN
violation OF the federal constitution,
but is valid.

RAILROAD defending
TITLE TO AN EMPIRE

Portland, Or, June 4.-Upholdine
the right of the federal government to
have cancelled the land grant made tc
the Oregon & California Railroad Com
pany by congress in 1866 and 1869 OF
about 100000 acres OF land in West
ern Oregon, B. D. Townsend, special
assistant to the attorney general OF
the United States, has filed in the Uni
ted States district court the govern
ment's brief answering demurrer in
terposed by the Southern Pacific com
pany, successor to the Oregon & Cali
fornia Railroad Company, which at
tackled the governments complaint in
many particulars.
Among the chief points urged were
alleged lack of jurisdiction and loss OF
right by lapse OF time.
The brief is a ponderous tome of 500
printed pages, and goes exhaustively
into the history of the grant and the
charges on which the government
claims the right to attack.
The relief prayed for is the return
to the public domain of about 5000, 900
acres of land still held by the company.
These lands are estimated to be worth
between $45,OO0.O00 and $4,000, 900. {
In short, it sets out that the congress
sional grant of 1869, in extending the
time allowed for constructing the road,
added provision requiring the grantee
to sell the lands embraced in the grant
to bona fide settlers in tracts of not
more than 160 acres and at consider
alton OF not more than $3.50 per acre.
The government claims that the rail
road company and its successors have
fagrantly violated the terms OF the
grant.

TEN MILLION FRUIT
BOXES FOR YEARS CROP

Mills in Spokane and throughout the
Inland Empire are working day and
night on apple, peach, cherry, plum and
berry boxes, more than 100000 of
which, each holding so pounds, will be
required to pack the fruit crop in East
ern Washington and Oregon, North and
Central Idaho, Western Montana and
Southeastern British Columbia the
coming summer and next fall, says a
Spokane dispatch. The value of the
crop is estimated at from $4,000, 900
to $20,0O0,00O, and may reach a higher
figure.
Fully 100000 boxes will be deliv-
cred to orchardists in the Wenatchee
valley in Central Washington, and it is
predicted that not less than 100000
boxes will be used in the Yakima val
ley. Walla Walla and Okanogan val
leys will take up to 100000 boxes,
while the berry and tree fruit growers
in the upper Columbia country say
their orchards will run at least $780,
600 boxes. A million boxes will be de
livered in the Palouse district in South
eastern Washington and Western Ida
no, the Blue Mountain country and the
Spokane and st. Marie valleys and 9th
er nearby points. Other belts in Wash
ington and Oregon have orders in for
100000 boxes.
Reports from the fruit belts in the
Clearwater country, in Northern Ida
no, and the Bitter Root country. in
Western Montana, are that the outlook
is bright for record yields of apples
and other fruits. Growers in the south
eastern part of the province of British
Columbia report that every indication
is that the apple crop will be larger
this year than ever before in the his
tory of the industry.

UGLY CLOTHES DULL
CHILD sENsl5iLiTlEs

New York, June 4.-Ugly clothes will
do more to dull the sensibilities OF
children than almost anything else, &C.
cording to Mrs. Anna A. Covill, agent
of the New York Children's Aid So

the Education of Backward, Truant
and Delinquent Children"
'It costs parents no more to dress
their children in pleasing colors than
in ugly clothes that dull their sensibili-
ties" Mrs. Covill declared. II have re-
claimed many children from dull and
stupid lives by dressing them in bright
pretty colors.
"Not long ago little girl was sent
to me. She would tear her clothes to
pieces. She was dull, stupid and took
no interest in anything.

people make a great mistake by not
getting their children the pretties,
clothes they can afford.
"The child is as dependent upon the
love of the parent or teacher as the
flower is upon light and air. A loving
smile and gentle word will often
awaken sympathetic little heart to q
new life"
