Mr.. RoosEvELT's VISIT,

Mr.. Roosevelt's visit to Minnesota
has created no great stir even in po-
litical circles. He was greeted by
large audiences and listened to at

a Roosevelt sentiment being aroused,
there is no indication of it.
Mr.. Roosevelt's address here was
not fighting speech. 1t was rather
a tame dissertation on certain prin-

Colonel is handicapped He has no
one to fight. He says he is concerned
in the welfare of no individual, least

we are to accept his own words. And
so far as the policies for which he
stands are concerned there is another
candidate in the field who is still in
the field and fighting for the same re.
forms. This leaves the Colonel with
out any incentive for fiery oratory.
In his speech here he dwelt at con-
siderable length on generalities. He is

Mr.. Leslie's mission is non-political.

Let the women vote When they are
ready to enter the army and navy AMI
defend their country from the intru-
sion of the foreign invader; when they
are ready to sacrifice their lives on
the field of battle that the govern
ment which they help to administer
may be sustained; when they are ready
to go to the front at the governments
call to defend their homes and FAM
lies at the point of the bayonet.
Let them vote when they are ready
to enter the police force and do sthe
disagreeable and dangerous work
which police and detectives are called
upon to do; when they are willing to
arrest the drunken sot and trail the
outlaw to his lair; when they are pre-
pared to enter gambling dens and dens
of iniquity that the majesty of the law
which they help 10 make may be up
held. sas
Let them vote when they feel nerv-
ed to meet the dangers which the
members of our fire departments have
to meet every day; when they arc
ready to climb into the transfers seat
or a fire truck and amid the Changing
OF gongs and the clatter of horses
hoofs, drive to the scene of a burning
building that the fire ordinances which
they put on the statute books might
be made effective. 49, ..
Let them vote when they are ready
to sweep the streets and gather up tn.
garbage and fight the smoke nuisance
that the laws tending to promote the
healthfulness of the city may be put
into operation.
Let them vote when it will be a
hardship for them to live under the
laws which men live under. Let them
have equal rights" with men when
they are ready to forfeit the superior
privileges which they now enjoy as
members of weaker sex. Let them
vote when they are ready to protect
rather than be protected. Let them
vote when they are ready to become
involved in petty political squabbles
which arouse enmities and do no good.
In word let them vote when they
are ready to put into the effect tho

terests. He wants to put the govern
ment in the hands of the people and
make it more responsive to them.
These and many other platitudes of
the platform were made use of by
MIR. Roosevelt. But there are few pub

alities as successfully as the Colonel
He knows the psychology Of audi
ences. He is a master Of the art of
making his hearers oblivious to ev-
erything except that he is interested
in their welfare. He will liken the
present struggle to the Civil war, then
bring in the name OF Lincoln and re-
fer to the valor of the Union soldiers
and make the whole concrete and

ing his remarks to few old soldiers
VINO happen to be present and occupy
ing front seats. He will talk about
the recall Of judges, disposing of the
argument against the principle by
asking his audience, GLOW would you
like to be called a mob?" Lest any
skeptics might remain he will praise
the integrity of the judges in the par
ticular locality where he is speaking
and add that the recall would not
need to be applied there. To show
that the recall should be adopted he
will point out few concrete personal
injury cases where the courts have
upheld the constitution at the expense
of the individual. Such is Mr.. Roose-
velt's style of oratory. He aims to
make his audiences feel that their
interests are his interests, that he
has no personal ambition, but is
prompted to act by his strong sense
of duty.
However, the people nowadays read
as we'll as listen. The spoken dis
course which charmed the ear has a
much different effect when examined
on the printed page. There the psy.
Geological articles lose their effect
and unless the basic principles of rea-
son are evident, the speech is a fail
ure. Mr.. Roosevelt finds it difficult
to make out anything like strong
case for his re-entry into politics
Why he should be nominated is a
proposition that is hard to demon
strate. AS a result the people are
not being convinced.

The election in Butte, Montana, or
Monday is interesting as a signal de-
feat Of the Socialist party in that city.
A. year ago the Socialists elected al
dermen in five of the eight wards. This
year they were successful in only one
OF the eight wards, and in that ward
the successful Socialist candidate had
plurality Of only forty-six votes ovac
his nearest opponent out of a total
of 1889 cast for three candidates.
Another peculiar fact in connection
with the Butte election is the presence
OF such names as the following on this
Socialist ticket: Frank German, Pat
Deloughrey. James Walsh, Mike
Houghton. Not one Of them, however
was successful Butte has rid itself OF

ministered is as good as any that haa

EASTER SUNDAY.

The significant words Of the GOSPEL
for Easter Sunday are the words by
which the angel greeted Mary Mag
dalen and her companion when they
entered the sepulchre where the body
OF Jesus had been laid. To their in
curing look the angel said, "He is
risen. He is not here, behold the place
where they laid Him.
This is the brief, unpretentious mos
sage by which the divinity of Christ
was proclaimed to the world. He boz
Jeers and insults, stripes and thorns,
not that He had to bear them. but
because He came to die for the sins
OF men. His one rebuke to the insults
OF the mad haunting crowd was His
resurrection. They had laughed HIN
to scorn and dared Him to conquer
even them. But he needed not their
feeble challenges. He said not a word
IN His own defense Until the mission
for which he had been sent was full
filled. Then in His power and mai
csty He rose, glorious and i,nmortai.
Easter Sunday is day of deepest
JOY for the Christian world. 1t is tn.
day on which the touch of perfectio. 4
is put on Christ's mission. At Christ
mas His advent INTO the world is her
aided with joy; at Easter His read
vent into the world is the cause of
the rejoicing for it is the final proof
OF His divinity.
The happiness which will enter the
hearts of the faithful on Easter Sum
day morning will depend largely Oh
how they spent Lent. For those who
have made all effort to get into the
spirit of the season of fasting a"'l
prayer, Easter will have special sis :
n1ficance. 1t will have more real
meaning and be laden with real ioy,
But for everyone who Is willing to con-
form to Gods grace the message of
Easter Sunday is hope. The Resur-
rection of Christ from the dead sym-
bolizes the spiritual resurrection o!
the soul entombed in sin as we'll as
the bodily resurrection on the last day.
Away, then, with lethargy and Ge
SPAR! Harken to the message If
hope. The Redeemer has come and
fulfilled His mission by conquering sin
and Death. He died that we might
live. Up, then, and on with the fight.
Arise from the sepulchre of Sin.

Churchill is an outspoken advocate OF
Home Rule. Many other men promt-

enthusiastic in :heir support of a
measure for which the Irish party has
been contcnding. The sentiment of
England favors it as the last electio 1
shows. The signs are therefore bright

than an upheaval seems able to tur,

with which to counteract the misrep-
reservations of the press and the plat

James Maggeoghegan, priest and
historian and commonly known as
The MacGeoghegan, was born near
Mullignar, and died ic France in the
year 1850. His great historical work
entitled Historic de PIrelande, An
cienne ct Moderne,' embraced three
volumes. The first two volumes were
published in Paris between the years
1888 and 1852; the third volume was
brought out at Amsterdam in 1868. An
English translation appeared in Dub
lin in 1874. 1t presents the history of
Ireland from the earliest period to
the Treaty of Limerick; and the work
has been continued to our own times
by the famous John Mitchell.
The first volume, or part, comprises
the times which have passed from the
establishment of the Scoto-M ilesians
in Ireland down to the first century,;
the second commences with the begin
ming of Christianity in Ireland in the
fifth century, and continues until the
twelfth century. The third part COM
prises the different invasions of the
English, their establishment in Ire
land, and all that had occurred down
to his own day. AS regards the merits
of the work, one opinion has always
prevailed-that among the many
works already written on the subject
that by MacGoghegan is unrivalled
for discrimination, sound judgment,
and freedom from prejudice. The
libraries of Paris stored with the best
books on Ireland were at his disposal;
and, as to the important affair con-
nected with the reigns of James l and
James IL, there could be no better
means of acquiring information than
those within the immediate reach of
the Able MacGeoghegan.
He dedicated his history of Ireland
to the Irish Brigade, of which body
he was for some time the chaplain.
His studies were made In France. At
an early age ne entered the College
of Rheims, then celebrated for the
ability and learning of it's professors,
and read there distinguished course
of philosophy and theology After his
ordination he still continued in the
college, acquiring further knowledge,
and preaching occasionally in the
churches of the city. About the year
1886 he went to England as chaplain
to an Englishman; and during this
period Of his life he found means to
travel into Ireland and to visit his
native place.
We may we'll imagine what were his
feelings at the sight of the manifold
sufferings and dreadful prosecutions

The present incumbent of the office
of mayor. Emil Seidel, was a candidate
for reelection. Dr. G.. A. Bading

candidate. The contest was fought
vigorously on both sides. Widespread
interest was aroused by the cam.
