game that the Georgetown-Pennsyl-

interesting to the stranger in a hurry.
The game Is this: When you see a

stand out at the junction Of that street
and New York avenue; you think the
car is going to stop there. But the COM
pany has glad surprise in STORE ID-

THE RETURN OF ROOSEVELT.

Two weeks ago an assassin aimed at Theodore
Roosevelt bullet that would have gone to his heart
save for a quick turn of his body moment before
the shot was fired. The missile went through 100
sheets Of hard paper, perforated a steel spectacle
case, and lodged in rib on the right breast.
After having seen to the protection of his assal-
ant from furious vengeance at the hands Of the
crowd, Colonel Roosevelt went on to Milwaukee
auditorium to deliver the message Of Progress which
as the captain Of his cause he was spreading to the
American people.
With fortitude and zeal unexampled in the an
nails of political contest, and with the spirit of
soldier on the literal firing line who fights till he
cannot longer stand the Progressive leader heroic
ally uttered the appeal of his party and then gave
himself over to the wondering surgeons
The emotions inspired in the Nation by this un-
paralleed event were horror at the atrocity upon
its famous citizen, fear that his life was sacrifice
to the public welfare, and admiration for the un-
selfish courage shown by the best-loved and best
hated American statesman since Abraham Lincoln.
Friend and foe alike joined with deep fervor in
tributes to his worth and prayers for his survival
Now it seemed that the country was to behold
the novel spectacle Of a great and thrilling cam.
paign for the Presidency suspended or abandoned
under truce. But the stricken leader instantly pro-
tested that the battle was not for the individual but
for the cause and that the banner Of Progress must
be carried onward even over his grave. The riva
leaders called back to the field and the confic
between human rights and special privilege was no

Although he is still the subject of medical bull

MARYLAND STATE FAIR THIS WEEK.

Marylands State fair opens at Laurel today. Ill
is convenient to Washington, transportation faci-
tiles good by steam and electric lines and by
good automobile roads, that it ought to be assured
large patronage Of Washington people.
Encouragement to such expositions as this means
positive financial returns to the community. No one
thing is needed in the East than an agricultural
revival. The East is the section to which the next
great agricultural migration will be headed in this
country, if the East will but appreciate its oppor-
tunities. The time is past when the young man with
ambition to farm can go West and grow up with
the country" The advice must be reversed: come
East young man, and grow up with the country
not the city. The city is grown up already. The
country has been too much neglected The cities
afford its opportunity. They constitute its market,
right at the farmers front door,
There isn't better corn and hog country in
America than Maryland. Neither is there a better
dairyng country. There is none that has the assur.
ance Of better market for dairy products, if indeed
so good, as the region Immediately around WASH
ington
If The Times might make bold with suggestion,
il would be that this town Of Washington initiate
movement for great interstate fair, to be held in
the pureus Of the National Capital that there
should be represented especially the States Of
Maryland, Virginia, and West Virginia; that it be
made an affair Of national note, regular annual
event. which should reach out with systematic cam
paign to bring farmers here from sections where
land is expensive, where climates are more rigorous
where there is already strong disposition to hunt
for cheaper lands
Why should these people be permitted to 60 to
Canada to tine experimental irrigation districts Of
the far West, to the semi-arid dry farming" terri
tories beyond the hundredth meridian, when every
thing that those sections can possibly offer, and vast
ly more, is to be had here?
There is only one answer The mid-Western
farmers whom the East and South need do not
understand the possibilities Of this section. They
ought to be shown Bring them here, and show
them. They'll 10 the rest.
There is no city in America that so surely as
Washington would make splendid success of such
an exposition as is here suggested 1t would have
all the attractions which inevitably draw thousands
of sightseers to the National Capital each year. 1t
would command more publicity than any like fair in
the nation. 1t would bring the. and the oppor-
tunity-and it is opportunity spelled with big o.
Laurel is the place for it; but let it be made a
great interstate demonstration of both the posi-.
btes and the accomplishments of this entire
middle Eastern country. 1t would bring dividends to
Washington people, in cheaper living costs; it would
mean business in every line. 1t would mark most
desirable dversfcation Of commercial interests ir
this city and throughout this entire region.
