Mr.. R0OSEVELTS APPEAL TO THE
PEOPLE OF FRANCE.

At the Sorbonne in Paris Saturday
Mr.. Roosevelt delivered the first of the
three lectures he is to deliver in Europe
He took for his subject Citizenship in
a Republic, a theme upon which, in
the Judgment of the civilized world to-
day, he speaks with as high authority
as any living philosopher, statesman or
priest. With much that the address
contained we in this country are al
ready familiar. Ever since Mr.. Roose-
welt began his great crusade for high
err code of ethics on the part of the in
dividual he has preached upon the same
theme and almost in the same words. lie
has been charged with dealing in plati-
tudes, and this will be treated by many
as tiresome reiteration of views grown
stale. But if Mr.. Roosevelt has any
mission in this life it has been along the
line which was expressed again to the
splendid audience that greeted him Sat
urday in these words:
Today | shall speak to you on the sub
ject of individual citizenship. the one
subject of vital Importance to you, my
hearers, and to me and my countrymen.
because you and we are citizens of
great democratic republics. A demo-
cratic republic such as each of ours-an
effort to realize in its full sense govern
ment by, of and for the people-repre-
sents the most gigantic of all possible
social experiments, the one fraught with
greatest possibilities alike for good and
for evil. The success of republics like
yours and like ours means the glory,
and our failure the despair, of mankind:
and for you and for US the question of
the quality of the individual citizen is
supreme.
This was the central thought of his
lecture, and he handled it in a mastery
way, giving to Europe, we believe, a
new idea of the man, Of his enthusiasm
for the great cause which has engaged
him almost exclusively in the last eight
years and which he has done so much
to make the whole world realize is the
noblest work which can engage the at
tention of man.
The ideas he inculcates are old-old
as the Ten Commandments. The argu-
ments he presses home are old-old as
the Book of Moses. "a. But if a man has
a mission, shall he not preach? And if
a man has aroused the dormant con-
science of his own nation to fuller APP
probation of what aahlgher standard of
life means in the way of individual
sacrifice, shall.she not carry the same
message to other and alien races when
occasion prompts?

the grave, there will not be signs of
vacillating in the matter of approving
the Republican record, even in the So
called doubtful districts. The first reg
ular session of the SiXty-frst Congress
has not yet adjourned; its record is not
yet in form to be discussed. But GER
tain measures have been formulated
which accord with Republican platform
promises and represent the policies of
President Taft's administration. If
these measures do not pass, their failure
will be mainly chargeable to the fill
clustering tactics of the Democrats. The
minorities in both branches have been
obstructing and delaying the progress
of the Interstate Commerce Bill with
the very apparent purpose of staving off
consideration of other administration
measures in the hope of compelling ad-
journment with these bills still on the
schedules. When the Congressional
campaign just ahead warns up to the
point where popular attention becomes
interested in individual records, respon-
sibility for the doings and misdoings
of the SiXty-first Congress will be plac-
ed where it belongs.
Even those features of the new tariff
which are most generally criticised,
when the facts are sifted, will in most
instances be traced to Democratic or in
surgent obstinacy. 1t IS not forgotten
that the Democrats during the extra
session were rank protectionists almost
to man when commodities in their
own districts were concerned. Take
for instance the duty on lumber: the
President was urgent that lumber
should be on the free list and it would
have been admitted without tax, but
for the votes of the Democrats in OPP
position. The insurgents, too, who are
attacking the Payne tariff and thus
lending encouragement to the wild
and disheveled chase" of the Democ-
racy, Will be obliged to shoulder their
due responsibilities. The work of the
extra session, as well as the record of
the regular session, will undoubtedly be
thoroughly sifted during the approach
ing Congressional campaign. And the
administration Republicans will have
nothing to fear from this sitting. AS
for the Emergencies that may have de-
veloped in the Republican party, it is
a safe guess that the questions at issue
in every Congressional district will be
adjusted before nominees are placed in
the field. The appeal to the people will
be made in every instance by united
party and upon record which will win
the control of the Sixty-second Con
gress.

THE APPEAL TO TIE PEOPLE

The Republican party, as represented
in both branches of Congress, except
for few extremists, is lined up soldly
behind the policies of President Taft.
And, when the 1910 Congressional cam
paign warns up, and the appeal to the
people is fairly formulated and present
ed, it will soon appear that the strong
and steadfast attitude of the President
for the carrying out of platform prom
Uses and for the realization of those
policies to which his party stands COM
mitted, viii be bulwark of strength.
This is upon the reasonable assumption
that the promises will be carried out and
the policies be put in way of realization.
If the expectation that the Republi-
can party will be in control of the next
Congress were based on nothing else
than a restful confidence that the Dem
ocratic managers in every doubtful Con-
gressional district will see to it that the
act of hari kari is duly performed, the
probabilities of Republican control
would be preponderantlY large 1t is
only necessary to point to the fact that
Tom Taggart has thus early proposed
himself as candidate for the United
States Senate, from Indiana, to indicate
how the undesirables of the Democracy
will make a tumultuous rush for the
spoils just of soon as they see the least
glimmer of hope that, through Republ-
can dissentions or disaffections they
have the ghost of show of winning.
These innocents," as The New York
Sun terms them, ''red-mouthed and I'M
bridled, but innocents nevertheless, -
have their thoughts so intently fixed
upon getting there that they fail entire
ly to understand that their wild and
disheveled race for the feeding trough
will certainly rivet attention and arouse
disgust.
When the Congressional campaign
really opens, when appeal shall be made
to the people upon the record of accom-
plished results and upon the traditional
policies for which the Republican party
stands and against the policies for which
the Democratic party has stood and
from which it cannot escape this side

Rural Delivery
Service Started

Rural route No. 3, serving the
territory southwest Of this city,
was placed in commission Monday
morning with VIM. Uelman in the
capacity of carrier, temporarily.
This will be a great convenience
for the people living in the ter
ritory covered, and. we hope, will
be duly appreciated. People liv-
ing in rural districts served by a
rural mail carrier, have it On the
residents of the towns a trife, as
the residents of the town are
obliged to 60 to the postoffice
for their mail, while the country
people have theirs brought to their
door. Then, too, there is slight
difference in city and country
taxes. With his mail brought to
him, and his telephone on the wall
the farmer is not so rural as he
might seem.
Route No. 2 was not established
for the good and sufficient reason
that there were no applicants fol
the position Of carrier.
For Route No. an examination
will be held on the Goth Of thi!
month and the route established
probably by the first Of September
There are some applicants in fol
the position of carrier, but there
is room for more, so any person
having a desire to serve Uncle
Sam at pretty good pay would de-
we'll to see the postmaster abou
the matter at once.

as something of cloud upon the
title, it is not any more so than the
reservation now made in all
government patents in relation to
minerals, voter rights, etc.
This wholesale withdrawal Of
public lands is simply in accord
with the overwhelming senti-
ment in favor of the conservation
and preservation. for the benefit
of all people, Of the natural and
useful resources of the country.
The observance of this order
constitutes no cloud on the entry

Season Closed;
Wibaux Licked

Saturday and Sunday brought
the two last baseball games Of the
season of 1910. Wibaux being the
lamb for the slaughter on both
occasions.
The Saturday game was played
here and was one of the best of
the season. Beach winning by a
score of S to 3. Not much money
exchanged owners on the result.

Wibaux had imported at great
expense a battery which was sup
posed to be invincible-but it
wasn't.
In the evening our baseball boys
gave dance at the Brinton opera
house which was we'll attended
and proved to be a delightful
social affair. Many purchased
tickets but did not attend. but
the receipts counted just the
same. The venture netted the
boys the sum of $500, which
was duly appreciated.
The Sunday game at Wibaux
also went to lthe Beach aggrega-
tion by a score of 13 to 6-nearly
the same proportion By which
Wibaux slaughtered our boys on
that memorable windy Sunday.
AS on Saturday, there was lack
of confidence on both sides. and
the money swap was light. 1t is
still a question which place had
the better team, and about the
only way to settle the matter is
for both managers to shake dice
for it.

those having permanent homes

our citizens who are out there for

employment. The Billings coun-

SANITARY DRAIN
is COMMENCED
Contractor Baet Begins Work on
Big Ditch for the Russell. .MilIey
Comqany and City

The city council. having en-
tered into an agreement with the
Russell-Mi!ler Co. to bear half
the expense Of draining the foul
smelling sloughs along the rail
road, the latter company entered
into contract Tuesday with Ed
ward S. Baer Of the Giendiye firm
Of Baer Bros. for the excavation
of $500 feet Of ditch from: the
RIM. elevator east along the north
edge Of the right Of way, said
ditch to be four feet wide on the
bottom and two feet below the
foundation Of the elevator. rha
ditch is to have a iall Of one and
one half feet.
Mr.. Baer and the mil. COM
pany's engineer are both Of the
opinion that the ditch when corn.
pleted viii, have a tendency to
purify the water IN the wells of
the entire district, ana we
sincerely hope that they are cor
rect in their surmise.
The foundation Of the Milling
Cos big elevator has been SER
iously affected by the aikali
water. and it vas absolutely I'M.
perative that something be done
to preserve the plant which has
cost so much money.
If the ditch is satisfactorily
built. and the district drained,
the city will shoulder half the ex.
pense, and it viii! be worth it, too.
We believe, in furtheciug the
health Of the inhabitants.
Mr.. Baer's crew Of workneu
began work en- the ditch Wednes-
day and are making fine progress.
We believe the atmosphere will
be sweetened by more than the
cost Of the ditch. Some day.
perhaps. sewer pipe will be laid
in that ditch. and when that day
does arrive. we hope that the city
will be equipped with good
system Of waterworks.
