Misquoting Roosevelt.

When Colonel Roosevelt started on
his tour abroad he took the precaution
to forestall fake interviews by an
noancing that anything ascribed to
him but not bearing his signature
should be discredited as spurious and
since returning home he has made a
similar announcement. Much as we may
regret the conditions that seem to COM
pei such a course by an ex-president.
the necessity is there just the same.
and Colonel Roosevelt has acted with
wise foresight.
1t is strange that anyone should
presume to speak for Theodore Roose-
welt, for he has been in the habit of
defining himself quite clearly and the
people have never had to wonder long
where he stood on any public issue or
question of moment. Those who have
recently been misquoting him In their
zeal to enlist his influence for a par
ticular cause must appreciate by now
that they do themselves no good. In
each case, beginning with the fake
cable from over the ocean that he had
become embittered against President
Taft, Mr.. Roosevelt has In his own
way effectually exposed the counter
feiters. Scarcely had the enemies of
the New York primary election bill
got their canard aired until the former
president came out with his letter en-
dorsing the primary bill and even
more impressive is his denial of the
report that he had championed the
candidacy of favored candidates for
the United States senate. Colonel
Roosevelt insists he Is taking abso.
lutely no part in factionaI or local con.
tests.
1t is but natural that old political
friends and party leaders should want
to meet and talk with the former pres
ident, but 1t will be safe to let Colonel
Roosevelt make every announcement
as to his attitude toward political lead
ers and issues and nothing is to b.
gained by trying to misstate his posi-
ton beforehand

Settling the Northwest.

The government will throw open to
homestead 100000 acres of land in
Montana July 10 and each person who
files may secure $40 acres, thus pro-
viding new homes for 1875 settlers
and their families.
This is a very small opening as COM
pared with others made and to be
made by the government, but it is an
important one, nevertheless, for it not
only affords entry to some choice
agricultural land in great and grow
ing state and country, but indicates
the wise policy of our government to
provide new homes for people with the
means and will to obtain them just
as rapidly as conditions permit. This
land lies Immediately north of the new

is said to be ample and soil fertile.
Uncle Sam is in the business of help
ing the people to build up this empire

Proof of the Pudding.

In the last few years We have heard
a great deal from certain quarters
about what is called hostile legisla-
tion"--legislation in other words, sup
posed to be inimical to big business
interests The cutlery was raised
throughout the Roosevelt administra-
ton and has been continued under the
Taft regime. In the meantime, with
this adverse comment going on, the
country has continued to multiply its
sources of wealth and to enjoy the
greatest degree of prosperity it has
ever known. IL prosperity is the
product Of legislation, then we must
conclude that we have been having a
rather good brand of legislation and
that the term hostile legislation is a
misnomer.
An anti-Taft newspaper recently
said that nearly all the legislation
enacted by congress since the Taft ad-
ministration began has been of this
so-called hostile character" and in the
same editorial that paper commented
on the fact that not only individuals
and private business, but the govern
ment, as a whole, has made most rapid
and remarkable gains financially, the
governments being so great that in
one year its official deficit falls from
$11S,0OO,000 to $25, 900, 900, a show.
ing unequalled in the history of the
country.
The import of all this is the proof
positive it affords that the general run
of laws lately enacted are not, in fact
hostile or inimical to interests, large
or small. To preach or teach or pub
lish such misinformation is most mis-
chieyous in its ultimate influence, sub
J versive of the highest respect for Law
: and those charged with its administra
ton and conducive to a form of dis
J, content which we can i'll afford to fos
\ ter. The logic of events has refutet
the assertion that congress is engaged
in enacting "hostile legislation" bu
patent as this is to the thinking mind
} it carries its sinister power to tn,
i thoughtless. The economic situation
, may be far from perfect, but it ha
been steadily and vastly improved an,
) the drift of legislation is all for fur
Their betterment.

Changes in His Time.
PHILADELPHIA Record.

Since 1888, when Chief Justice Fuller
assembled the bench, the commercial system
of the country has been recast by the ag-
gregation of capital in the vast Transport
tation and manufacturing enterprises, and
by the efforts OF congress TO meet new
conditions by new regulations for the pro-
lection of the public interests The Cullom
law was passed the year before Mr., Fuller
Joined the court, and the Sherman law
two years after he Joined It. These laws
and others incidental TO them indicated
a radical change in the attitude Of the
government toward business. and this
change, as expressed in statutes, had to
be construed and applied by the great
court, ovsr which Chief Justice Fuller pre-
sided. The decisions that the income tax
was unconstitutional; that labor unions,
as in the Danbury Hat case, were amenable
to the Sherman law; that the state Of
Pennsylvania could not tax interstate mes
sages, and that a state could not interfere
with original packages shipped into 1t even
though the packages contained liquor and
the state had a prohibitory law, were the
work OF the chief justice, himself.

BY the deaths Of McEnery and DanieI the

reduced to six. There are eight senators
who may be reckoned as union veterans,
without counting Bradley of Kentucky,
whose father took him out of the ranks
before he could get to the front. This in
stance Of parental feeling prevailing over
patriotism is set forth in Senator Bradley's
biography. Senator Dupont, who served in
the regular army throughout the civil war,
is a West Point graduate. So is Senator
Briggs who was born too late to acquire a
war record. Most of the veterans of both
sides arg in the late sixties or early sew
entities, but it may be years before the

JUST WHAT you NEED.
No One IL Ever Too old for n

No One r. Ever Too old for n
Picnic.
Washington Herald.
This is the very heart of picnic time
DO you remember. You old fellows how
you used to go on picnics when you were
boys? Do you remember how you would
bound out of bed and look out Of the
window to see what the weather was like2
Even the sun had to bestir itself to rise
before you did No other morning was
quite like picnic day. You boited your
breakfast, and spent an hour or two be-
tween the front gate and the kitchen,
where mother and the girls were putting
up the lunch.
You had base ball or a fishing pole to
take along. You longed TO take the family
dog. but Of course. II you were going by
boat or by the cars he had to be left be-
hind, wagging his tail disconsolately as
you vanished, loaded down with those mys-
terious picnic supplies. Perhaps the load
was heavy, but your heart was light, and
you could hardly restrain your impotence
TO be at your destination.
How you boys played ball. put up swings
and went swimming in the creek, IL there
was one, while the girls gathered wild
flowers or busted themselves spreading out
the lunch!
All, that lunch--that good, old-fashioned
indigestible delicious picnic lunch Do you
not wonder II the boys and girls OF today
enjoy things TO eat like you used TO?
You are too old for picnics now, you say.
Is that the truth or are you Just lazy2
When your children want to go on a picnic
you order out the automobile--if you have
| one-and perhaps the servants put up the
lunch. Perhaps mother has a bridge en-
gagement, and you--why, of course, you
would like to go, but there's the office.
You can't leave. Let the children go and
enjoy themselves. but you must stay and
work.
You are unfair TO yourselves. you old
fellows, and to the children. Stir up your
recolections! Wasn't half the fun Of the
picnic the fact that father went along and
showed the boys how to build the fire to
boil the coffee; gave them lessons In the
overland stroke, just coming into fashion
played ball with them, and led the way
through the woods on the hunt for the
wonders of nature? And mother, tool What
can a picnic be nowadays without mother
and her pies and her cakes and all the
goodies that went into that basket-and
came out of II, too?
Too old for pIenics? Absurdl Take the
children out all day in the woods. Get
tired; not just slightly tired but dead
tired. 1t may take you a whole day to
Ieadjust yourself. to get rested, but what
Of it? In the long run the picnic will do
you good.
A picnic is just what you need!

Growth of the South

According to advance figures on the

growth in population of the United
States in the last ten years is disclosed
In the south-sixteen states, including
Missouri and Oklahoma. The percent
age of increase there is 81, while in
the northern states 1t Is 1917.

lation when they grow in wealth and
industry and that is the secret of the
south's advance.
