MEASURING FISH BY THE EYE
II is Guesswork and Most Men Go
Far Astray as to tho
Length.

Not every man can measure fish &C.
curately by eye Many people are apt
to make their guess too big, and then
there are many who, misled by the
tapering head and the diminishing tail
end of the fish, are apt to make 1t too
small.
Here was a little bunch of men out
fishing for blues, and presently one
pulled in a handsome and fair-sized
fish. Then somebody started guessing
at the length of 1t and one guessed
two feet and another four and stin
another three feet. Then a man in
the boat who was familiar with fishes
glanced at this blue and said that he
guessed 1t would measure two feet
and half; whereupon man in the
party who had tape measure In his
pocket got that out and put the tape
on the fish; and 1t actually measured
81 inches.
There was Just one man In the boat
who could measure a fish accurately
by the eye.

INDEPENDENT
POSITION.

Mr. Roosevelt has no power to
nominate himself for third term
or elect himself to third term. He
is simply a private citizen. He is
in control of none of the agencies
of government, either civil or
military. He can reward nobody
He can coeroe nobody. He can
punish nobody Not a single bay
onet is back of his candidacy; not
even the night stick of solitary
policeman. No voter has been
or can be conscripted into tn
Roosevelt service; nor can a dollar
be drafted for his campaign fund
except with the free and full con
sent of it's owner. All of the frenzy
and folly of his supporters is

his retirement the constructive, pro,
gressiye movement in national af
fair waned, and accomplishment has
since been confined chiefly to the
execution of some of the policies
to which Rooseyelts initiative and
energy gave so much momentum.
The measures that Mr.. Roose-
welt actually big sticked into the
statutes while outraged conserva.-
tism cried loudly against tyranny"
and dictatorship" are now accept
ed as wise by the very people who
protested. Proposals that were
denounced as ruinous to business
are now lauded as it's conseryators.
The explanation is that the couu-
try has been catching up with
Roosevelt" Most OF it was pretty

AS to the safety, desirability and
usefulness of the Roosevelt poll
ciesi
Roosevelt and Rooseveltism have
been indicated by experience. The
newest of the Roosevelt laws have
been in force about three years;
the oldest, about ten. They have
been tried and found not wanting. |
They have stood the test of enforce
ment The fears of lawyers that
they would be held unconstitutional
nave been brushed aside by the
courts The predictions that ruin
and business calamity would fol-
low in their trail have proved
groundless. The policy of govern
nent control and regulation of
industry, transportation and fin
ance has been adopted as the pro-
gram OF the future.
Going back over the record of
accomplishment under Roosevelt,
comparing the forecasts of failure
with the facts of success, only one
conclusion can be drawn: Roosa-
welt was right. The constitutional
sharps, the laissez-faire economists
the timid statesmen. the terrified
captains of enterprise, were wrong.
