moose will sober off quickly if left in
the friendly darkness. =.
Our renowned authority is in error
= when he speaks Of
moose 'galloping away when alarmed. /
Will not say that a moose never gal
lcped; only declare firmly that the man
who saw him gallop was not sober. The
bull moose often bolts. as he has a
strong tendency in that direction. but he
cannot gallop. being too clumsily built
for the business. When alarmed, he
turns stiffly and lunges blindIy away at
an awkward trot, running into OBJ
stacles, knocking down dead stubs,
smashing the underbrush. splashing and
fioundering through muddy bogs, getting
more and more excited at the pother he
is making-precisely as an excited can
didate might start a bolt and an inde-
cent rumpus at an orderly convention.
Draws Invidfous Comparison.
The close parallel between your bull
moose and your true politician may be
carried further. Thus, the Anticipated
creature often lets himself be hunted
by cunning destroyers that he might
easily escape. Witness this scene (p.
2c9, where T. Roosevelt describes HIM
self as creeping through a thicket after
a young bull moose that he has seen
to lie down for his midday rest, chewing
his cud in fancied security.
My veins were thrilling and my
heart beating with that eager. fierce ex-
citement-which is one of the keenest
and strongest pleasures which make up
the wild joy of living. Drawing a bead
against his black side pressed the
trigger-the light blood sprang from both
his nostrils'
And more of the same buggy and BUTCH

Never Gets Anywhere.
There are many other reasons why
the bull moose is the true symbol of
political righteousness. Note that he
always makes a crooked trail. wander

Though he travels a great deal he never

his horn, grunting, squealing, stamping
the earth with his hoofs and thrashing
the unoffending bushes with his antlers.
Meeting him now, You would think him
q champion, a Hotspur, very devil
of an antagonist; but he is at heart an
arrant coward and braggart, without a
spark Of real-that is, of moral-courage.
II he ever attacks, 1t is in q fit Of blind
fury, like a cornered~ cat. He will roar
defiance at all rivals and at the universe
itself, but snap a twig sharply or bark
like a small dog. and all the rampant
egotism oozes out of him. He remem-
bers suddenly some very important en-
gagement elsewhere, and when you hear
him again he will be grunting at a safe
distance.
"A curious fact about the bull moose
at such moments of emotional excite
ment is that he readily answers call
and comes headlong TO meet it. Almost
everything will serve for an issue when
the bull moose is in a receptive attitude.
I have called him by initiating the bel
low of his mate. by pounding on a
stretched skin. by grunting or checking
in my throat like a rival bull. or by
simply making a loud roar unlike anya
thing on the earth below, or, trust, in
heaven above. Here again he serves
admirably as an emblem Of the new
type of political leader, who stays In
retirement until the people call him loud
ly to their service. Unfortunately, the
summons to the bull moose is sometimes
arranged by crafty men with guns and
when he rushes out eagerly to meet the
call he goes to his own destruction.
Has Emotional Fits.
I'm many other ways the bull moose
shows symptoms Of emotional fits and
of a disordered intellect As L. Roose-
welt says (p. 229). he frequently shows
a clumsy slowness of apprehension which
amounts to downright stupidity The

emblem. therefore, should be wary of
talking too much. knowing that words
are remembered, or Of writing conf
dental letters that are almost certain
to be purchased by the newspapers-those
vile and slanderous instruments of the
corrupt interests. without conscience or
any appreciation of true greatness.
Another noticeable characteristic of
the bull onoose is his inordinate and un-
cliangeable selfishness. Whether roam

authority says (p. 2lS. he is strange

animals and men he is wholly out Of
place. He never learns wisdom, but
comes to the same false calls and fol-

some moose were turned loose in the
Adirondacks, only to vanish, and one
who watched them found they had
turned away from excellent food and a
good climate to follow the old forgotten
moose paths northward to greater wil-
derness and more primeval savagery.
And when you think of it seriously the
professional politician, who lives all his
life on the public domain, agitating, de-
stroying. but never creating or doing
any constructive work, is also a relic
and a survival of barbarism. He seldom
