still elings to the crazy notion that
Theodore Roosevelt should be made
to accept the nomination for the
Vice Presidency. The State Journal
should remember that it can recall
but a single instance in the life OF
Colonel Roosevelt, where he was
made to do anything, and that was
when the Philadelphia convention
that re-nominated Mckinley made
him take the nomination for Vice
President. The Telegram does not
believe that he can be made do the

Says the Dispatch:
:, The public has learned to be bit

stories that are circulated at irregu-

discovered cancer cures. There are
many scientists of great ability at
work trying to discover means Of

ANOTHER FIRE
VISITATION
Machine Shops, Chinese
Laundry and Carpenter
Shop Destroyed

Last Saturday morning a few min
utes before O'Clock the fire alarm
was turned in and when the fire
laddies promptly responded they
found the Play machine shops on
east Main street we'll enveloped in
flames. The first alarm had been
given by one OF the members of the
Chinese laundry firm adjoining the
shop, who chased up and down the
street shrieking like a caliope. He
at last succeeded in arousing a white
man who rang the old fire bell, and
aroused the rescue party.
The fire was confined to the ma
chine shops, the laundry and Louie
Grabskiis carpenter shop, by the eff
forts of the fire brigade, there oc-
curring a break there in the row OF
wooden structures.
The buildings and contents were a
total loss but for $4,000 insurance
on the machine shops, owned by J.
Play and son, c. w. Play. which
property was valued at $4,000.

It Is among young men and women OF
all ages that discourtesy seems to be
most general With young men 1t Is
manifested chiefly toward old women, es-
Iecially those elderly women who show

ever this is manifest II seems to act upon
Young men Of a certain type like the
proverbial red rag before a bull. This Is
doubtless due to the notion prevalent
among masculinity Of a primitive sort
that women dress with an eye to attracting

Crop of Graduates Valuable.

"Of all the crops" said the doctor,
''the crop Of graduates each year Is OF
the most Importance to the country
and by far the most valuable; and. DIFF
ferent from all other crops. 1t never
fuctuates but Is on the increase year
after year. The high schools OF the
country are the best developed OF any
in the school system. and when a boy
or girl is graduated from one he or
know that think 1t is desirable for a
student to go to college unless he is
particularly anxious to study along
certain lines. The upbui1ding Of char
acter Is the greatest education that a
high school can do.
THE world has no sentiment about a
diploma It Is merely visiting card. and
will be recognized only so far as its own
er is worthy. There is nothing wrong in
being beaten; 1t is the staying down
when beaten that Is the condition to be
avoided. For a graduate to assume re-
sponsibility upon entering the business
spirit. Often there Is the feeling on the
part Of graduates that they easily could
take the world on their own shoulders,
but these ideas soon vanish. A feeling OF
too much responsibility Is better than
not enough. The wealth Of youth which
you graduates possess Is more to be de-
sired than the enormous money wealth
of our American millionaires.'
