AT Forsyth, Montana, a swarm Of ma

were men who wore large red placards
stuck under their hatbands. The Bull

Colonel Roosevelt's swing around
the circle Is made on the private car
Mayflower which is, singularly enough,
the name of the yacht which he used
when President Of the United states.
The car Is admirably adapted for
campaign purposes There are state
rooms for the colonel; his physician,
DR.. Scurry L. Terrell, of DALAI; Col.
Cecil Lyon, the picturesque Bull Moose
supporter: the coloneis cousin,
George e. Roosevelt and assistant
secretaries Johnny McGrath and FL
bert Martin. Secretary Frank Harper
remained at oyster Bay to look after
the Bull Moose correspondence there.
The car Mayfiower also has a wide
observation end, from which the Bull
Moose candidate makes impromptu
speeches along the route.
Sometimes he leans so far over the
brass railing to shake hands with a
small boy or girl that Cousin George
Is apprehensive that the colonel will
topple off and "Doc" Terrell Is al
ways ready, with first aid for the
near-injured.
Just ahead Of the coloners car. and
accompanying 1t everywhere whether

men who have nothing to do except

Where is That
Sense of Honor?

While standing at Armageddon and
battling for the Lord, Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt and his third term
supporters are processing to be run
ming q campaign on such high moral
grounds that In fact they declare 1t
to be kind of religious crusade.
They would do nothing dishonorable
or unfair; not them. Yet the 'repub-
Iican committee found It necessary to
expel four of it's members and at this
late day in the campaign to accept the
resignation Of three others because
they were working for the success Of
another party. 1t is incomprehensible
that men who are working to defeat
that party should retain seats in its
governing board until this time. That
they should be engaged in professed
effort to battle for the Lord and to
elevate the standards of political and
social life, makes their conduct the
more reprehensible and grotesque
What would be thought of men who
are trying to elect Governor Wilson
or Debs or Chaffin IL they should
hang on to their seats in republican
committee?
Colonel Roosevelt and his followers
declare they are no longer republi
cans and that they have organized q
new and cleaner party. If that Is true
why do so many Of them try to rear
advantage by remaining in the repub-
iican party and by trying to place
their candidate for electors on repub.
lican ballots?
So far, Colonel Roosevelt has mo-

Officers Too Handy
With Their Guns.

In the netghboring city OF Atlanta,
during the past week two men were
killed by police officers. IN one OF
these instances one policeman killed
another policeman over q trivial per-
sonal matter. The fact that they were
policemen may have been only coin
cidence. Yet the men were not on
duty at the tins and had they been
unarmed. the homicide would not have
occurred. The other case was one
where policeman shot young white
man in the back while the fugitive
was running away from a negro's
stable. The policeman claims he sus-
pected the young man OF trying to
steal the Negroes COW. The friends
Of the dead man claim that the negro
kept blind tiger" and the young
man was trying to purchase whiskey
illegally. The Pensacola Journal
knows pothing about the merits OF
the dement's of this particular case
but these instances are cited to en-
phasize the fact that police Officers
and other officers are too prone tc
shoot In popular parlance. they are
too handy with their guns. In many
counties in Florida numbers of youns
men are sworn in as deputies to the
sheriff for the sole avowed purpose OF
being permitted to carry a pistol
From one years end to another they
never perform any Of the function,
of the office of deputy sheriff.

We Regularly Poison
Ourselves With Food.

A prominent physician declares that
thousands of people regularly and al
most Systematically poison themselves
with food.
Even the layman can see this. The
la5man may not know where the
trouble lies. but he painfully knows
that 1t exists.
Scarcely any disorder is more COM
mon than indigestion. It need not be
acute in order to work great injury.
1t may weaken the system and de-
tract from ones energies and powers
without giving any warning pain at
all.
Eating is one of the most import
ant things in life. and yet 1t is given
the least concern.
The average man exercises more
concern in selecting a necktie than
In selecting a meal
The palate is the only guide in
most cases. and few ever stop to
realize how grossly the palate may be
corrupted and how far it may lead us
astray.
II a man were to conduct his bust
ness as he conducts his eating, de-
voting himself only to the things he
likes and ignoring the things he does
not like, he would end In bankruptcy
Just as surely as thousands now end
in indigestion.
Some starve themselves, imagining
they are dieting. but the great ma
jority go to the other extreme and
constantly overeat- The stomach is
the sturdiest organ in the body. but
it cannot carry the loads most people
put upon it.
Men who have fine horses and even
dogs find it worth while to observe
the principles of proper feeding. Ami
mails represent money, and SO COM
mand concern.
The man who would overfeed, OF
underfeed, or improper feed In any
way, a valuable horse, would be look
ed upon as fool or brute. He
would not only be destroying his own
property, but would run foul of the
Society for the Prevention Of Cruelty
to Animals.
But a man may misfeed himself
and nobody cares.
He may thus destroy the most val
liable of all his possessions-his
health-and never think Of his loss
| until too late.
Proper eating-provided there IL
enough to eat-would be the simplest
problem with which men have to deal
| II they would but apply as much sense
to themselves as they do to horses and
dogs.

Red Tape
Of the Law.

Out IN Missouri a murderer has
been condemned to death. who had
been previously sentenced to serve SO
years in the state penttentiary. In
all seriousness the learned courts of
that state insist that the first sen
tence must be carried out and that the
state must wait SO years before it can
lawfully execute the murderer. In
by the courts to thir rules of pro-
cedure and technical points and their
relative disregard for real, substantial
justice. It is quite probable that the
execution Of this death penalty may
be suspended for three quarters Of a
century after the convicted criminal
shall have died Of old age.
It is also true that hundreds of men
pine in prison in order that judges may
have long summer vacations and
shorter working hours. New York
newspapers say that with over 500
people in their city prison awaiting
trial, most of their judges are still on
their summer vacations and that the
few judges who are in town hold court
on an average of two hours a day.
There is not e. natural propensity
on the part Of the people to disre-
gard and ignore the law. but the grow
ing preponderance of So called red tape
and the many useless delays of the
law is bringing about general dis
respect for court procedure as 1t
exists and something that is akin to
contempt for technicalities.
