Orange Blossoms.

Much uncertainty exists as to
why the orange blossom has been SO
much worn by brides, but the gen
eral opinion seems to be that it was
adopted as an emblem of fruitful
ness. According to some authori-
ties, the practice has been derived
from the Saracens, among whom
the orange blossom was regarded as
symbol of prosperous marriage,
q circumstance which is partly to be
accounted for by the fact that in
the east the orange tree bears ripe
fruit and blossoms at the same
time.

Roosevelt Peeved
Over the Statement
Made by Wilson

SUPERIOR, Wis, Oct. t0-"T probably
shouldn't make the reference to Mr..
Wilson that I am going to make" said
Colonel Roosevelt here today, 'if he had
mt attacked me. But when anybody at
tacks me. he might as well understand
that I won't take 1t lying lown. I'm
a man Of peaceful disposition, but /
think am able to defend myself"
Colonel Roosevelt stopped for an hour
in Superior this morning on his way to
Minnesota. His managers had planned
a comparatively easy day for him, after
two days Of rapidfire speech making in
Michigan. He was to spend most of the
day In Duluth and no speeches else
where were scheduled. save the one at
Superior.
Wilson" said he. has attacked the
proposed federal legislation to prohibit
child labor in very strong language,
which Is to be found in the North
American Review, volume lS. He here
denounces as mischievous the effort for
the regulation Of labor in mills and fac
tories by the federal government.
"The democratic platfrom in one plank
takes this same position, saying: We
denounce as usurpation the efforts to
enlarge and magnify by indirection the
powers of federal government" referring
to the regulation of interstate commerce
But in dealing with the trusts the demo-
cratic platform states that it favors de-
nying the trusts permission to engage
in interstate trade at all.
''It seems preposterous TO discuss two
such conflicting positions and the mere
fact that they can be put in the same
platform shows the utter worthlessness
of expecting serious social reform work
from a party capable Of taking such
action in its declaration of principles,
But Wilson's own statement as to
the interstate commerce law and child
labor, as quoted above, Is absolutely In
compatible with his position in standing
upon the democratic platform with its
plank. as given above, about interstate
commerce. Either Wilson and the demo-
cratic platform do not mean what they
say or else it is Wilson's duty to re-
pudiate either the plank above quoted
in the democratic platform or his own
statement about interstate commerce and
child labor"
