DR.. AbbOH'S Views

DR.. Lyman Abbott, the distinguished
editor of the Outlook, has been an in
innate friend of Theodore Roosevelt
ing articles of the campaign is Doctor
Abbott's intimate view of the Progress
sive leader in the curre.4t issue of the
Outlook. At the outset he refers to
the grotesque caricatures of Roosevelt
that have appeared in the New York
newspapers, and the many lies that
have been printed about him. He con-
tinues:
Falsehood, however baseless, if re-
ly produces an impression on the pub
lie mind. and even high minded and
thoughtful men get conceptions which,
because the men are thoughtful and
high minded, they ought not to be I'M
willing to correct. Thus. in his recent
letter. elsewhere reported in this issue
of the Outlook, Mr.. Eliot, president
emeritus of Harvard University writes
of Mr.. Roosevelt: 1.-The candidate of
self capable while III power of taking
grave public action-which, of course,
seemed to him wise and right-in dis
regard of constitutional and legal limi-
tations." This charge has been often
made, and the friends of Mr.. Roose-
welt have often called for specifica-
tons of it.: but the specifications have
never been given. We have never
been told what specific clause of the
constitution or what specific provision
of law any act of his has ever disre-
garded.
For the last thirty years | have been
a somewhat careful student of current
American history. and l hope con-
scientious in an endeavor to report
and interpret 1t to my readers. During
the nearly nine years of his executive
life as Governor of New York State
and President of the United States, no
executive act of Mr.. Roosevelt's, and
no legislation which he has recon-
mended, has ever been declared I'm.
constitutional by the courts; and
think 1t is equally true, though on this
subject do not speak with equal GER
tainty, that no administrative act OF
his in the preceding years, as civil ser.
vice commissioner, and assistant sec
rotary of the navy, was ever set aside
by his superior officers because by ii

authority.

theories that might explain the facts
also seem to have serious drawbacks.
With reference to the discoveries OF
the expedition in Arctic regions. Ex-
plorer Stefansson said. in reply to
some of his critics: Il am not making
any lecture tours for profit and can
not see what my object would be to
make statements that cannot be prov
ed. The field up north is an open one
and any one can go there and see the
Eskimo tribes for themselves"
Two bands Of missionaries from
abroad have entered the field recently.
according 10 letters received by the
explorer yesterday. Two missionaries
represent the Church of England and
others the Roman Catholic church.
Mr. Stefansson reaffirmed that he
visited three tribes of blond Eskimo
living on Coronation Gulf. Dolphin and
Union Straits, so far as known had
never met white men.
About 500 specimens OF Arctic GU
rios gathered by the expedition were
placed on exhibition in the Natural
Museum yesterday. They include
elaborate ornate costumes worn by
the Eskimos of Coronation Gulf. for
some OF which fabulous prices were
paid; seal harpoons, the wood utilized
from driftwood and the points made
from caribou antlers; bows and ar
rows Of spruce with the cords of car
ibou sinews.

CONFINEMENT.
By EDWIN A. NYE.
This Ia true tale with a moral.

This is u true tale with a moral.
Will and Jean lived in a small town.
Though neither rich nor poor. they
were comfortable and content. They
owned a neat cottage and had fair
business. Jean sung at her work.
Will employed one clerk. When
trade was slack there were picnics and
neighborly good times. A new gov Il
a year sufficed Jean. Will never bought
more than two suits yearly. They had
little savings account that grew.
One day city friends came. They
told Will he was burying his talents;
the same ability and effort would
bring ten times the return.
The women filed Jeans ears with
tales of the city's pleasures Why not
live to the full?
The leaven worked.
After much hesitancy Will sold his
business and the cottage They went
to the city. where he engaged in his
line Of business. They rented a fat
which cost five times the sum VIII
paid for the little village store. The
neighbors employed a maidstone two.
One must live like his neighbors.
They saw much Of life-Jean did.
Also VIII prospered. But the ex-
pense-Jean must buy lot of clothes.
And there was the cost of entertain.
ing. They were making more money.
but where did it go!
Will consulted Jean. but she did not
know. And VIII began lying awake
of nights figuring how to make both
ends meet. And Jean worried.
She knew VIII was troubled and he
was working to the limit. She was
getting most out Of the new life. But
what did she get? A hurried. harried
existence. dates with dressmakers. late
hours. wrinkles!
She worried about Will and the ways
of the maid and the expense and their
future. DESPITE prosperity they were
running behind.
You can see their finish?
One day Will said he could sell the
business. pay the debts and have
enough to buy back his old store. The
little cottage and the little bank &C.
count had been devoured.
Jean cried.
She did not want to leave the city
though she knew they had not been
as happy as in the old town. But she
knew it was best So they returned
to the village. where they were warm.

tight shoe for an old, easy one. And
the moral?

contentment is than a stalled OK and

ARE TO CONSIDER
IMPORTANT CASES
United States Supreme Court
Resumes Its Sittings at
Washington Today.
National News Association

! WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. IA
Twenty-one cases of major Importance
have been set for argument before
fall term today. Among the important
suits to be argued are the Information
al Rate Case, the cotton corner case,
the suit against the alleged bathtub
trust, the l.. & n. rate case, which in
volved the power Of the Commerce
Court to weigh evidence presented and
previously passed upon by the Inter-
state Commerce Commission and the
embezzlement case of William R.
vile, N. c.
1t is also probable that the Kansas
Ballot case. involving the right Of the
Roosevelt electors to remain on the
Republican ticket in that state will
come up. The ballots must be printed
for the November election several
days before that event If the Supreme
Court is to say anything of practical
effect on the case, it's decision must
be rendered during the latter part of
October.
wolves the question of long and short
haul rates, to what extent rates from
the Atlantic sea board to Spokane and
other inland towns may exceed the
! rates to the Pacific coast is the propo-
sition.
The bathtub trust case involves the
monopolistfc power of patent rights.
The suit bringing before the court the
question of whether a company may
control the price of the finished pro-
duct through controlling the use under
ing the article.
Several railroad matters of extreme
importance also come before the
court. The Jurisdiction of the Inter
state Commerce Commission over
transportation property in stock yards,
the right to enforce switching privi-
leges for electric lights and the right
of railroads to limit their liability will
come before the court.
The latter case is of particular in
terest, because some states declare
null and void bills of lading seeking to
limit the liability of the common car
| Tier, willie III OtHSE states there are
express constitutional provisions
against limitation of this kind.
Another case that will come before
the Supreme Court and which will be
followed with keen interest, not only
because of the diplomatic questions
involved but for many dramatic ele-
ments, is that of Porter Charlton. the
young New York clerk. who murdered
his wife in Italy in 1910, and threw her
body, which he had placed in trunk,
into Lake Como.
Young Charlton has been lying in
Jail in New Jersey for two years,
awaiting the verdict of the Supreme
Court as to whether or not he will
have to go back to Italy and stand
trial. If the court decides that he
should not be extradited, il seems
there will be no other alternative than
/ to set him free
