general than lies in the ability Of one man or any
group Of men to arouse or keep alive
The great rush after wealth which has character
lied the last fifty years is subsding and new cry
is becoming more and more distinctly heard, the cry
for social and industrial justice and for higher stan
dards Of morality In public life.
Roosevelts chief strength lies in his identification
with this movement, not as a mera preacher Of re-
forms, but effective accomplished Of the prac-
teal reforms he advocates. Roosevelts popularity
lies in his ability to inject workable morality into
everyday life, to hitch up morality and decency with
success
The new morality" as Ferrero writes must not
only develop itself in full prosperity but be neces-
sary element Of prosperity"

Some Pigeon Shooting.

Mr.. J. Ealkin Gadsby, while promi-
nently knows as real estate dealer
is even still better known as the
most expert shot with a rife that
Washington boasts. Some time ago
1t was found that half a dozen
pigeons had taken up their abode in
the top of the dome OF the Congress.
sional Library. Nov. to erect scat
folding on either in-or-outside OF
that dome is most expensive thing
hence the management was at Loss
until there came an inspiration: Lee
]. Eakin Gadsby do IT," When hi
was asked II he could plunk those
pigeons from the floor OF the reading
room, and PUNK them without in
Turing any Of the delicate tracery
that makes the dome the most beau
tiful in the world-his reply was t.
reach for his little .2s-caliber riff,
and betake himself to the Library.
He got every one Of those pigeon,
without missing shot or marring 4,
moulding or a fresco.

People ouMay Not KnowFacs You May Not Have Heard

The concrete mind of Iowa runs
to agriculture and per capita cir
culation.
The Iowa boy who does not finish
in some branch Of agricultural train
ing in one Of the farm colleges Of
that State is looked upon as a sort
Of traitor to the interests Of the Com
monwealth..
Then he either goes back home to
make a wealthy planter or he goes
elsewhere to show others how to
farm. Iowa has produced a surprising
number Of expert, educated farmers.
It has produced SO many really good
practical farmers that the country
has learned to have confidence In
its book specialists.
George NJ. Rommel, animal hus-
bandman. United States Bureau OF
Animal Industry, is an Iowa product.
He was born at Mt. Pleasant thirty
six years ago. ut does beat all
how these boys are coming to run
things in this country
For the Consumer.
Rommel wants more and cheaper
meat. Not SO much to the farmer
but to the consumer. He wants the
producer to get more of the profit
that is gobbled up between the pro-
ducer and the consumer. He thinks
the raising of more and better stock
will help to adjust the matter and
bring greater prosperity to the coun-
try.
George is also interested in the
breeding of more and better horses
The automobile has not eliminated
the horse by any means. There Is q
greater demand than ever for good
horses. In fact Mr.. Rommel ia
puzzled 70 know what the United
States Army would do for mounts in
case OF a war. The farmers Of Maine
are paying as high as $1,000 pair
for farm horses. The farmers OF
the country generally are paying
from $3.50 to $750 a pair and cannot
get all they want. The increased
demand for horses on the farms
more than overcomes the decreasing
demand In the cities.

sippi river promises to become the
great meat producing section Of this
country. He said, recent expert
ments in different sections Of the
Southeastern States show that beef
can be produced there much more
cheaply than in any other section Of
the country. For instance expert
ments conducted by Government ex-
pertinent stations in feeding cattle
show that beef can and Is being pro-
duced at q cost of from 80 to "a per
hundredweight. It is impossible to
grow cattle SO cheap in the North
west.
Where Land Is Cheap.
THE South has cheap lands that
are every bit as productive as those
Of the West. They are remarkably
cheap. The seasons are long. re-
QuirIng but little winter feeding and
care. Hay and other feeds are cheap
er than in the West and the prices
are more stationary. With the elimi-
nation Of the Texas fever tick
which the department hopes to &C.
complish in a few more years, the
South will become the greatest
cattle raising section Of the coun-
try"

A BIT OF INSTRUCTED ECONOMY.

While the worlds congress Of hygiene and DEM
ography is fresh in mind it is worth while to note
that the United States Government did nothing, by
way Of direct appropriation, to aid in getting the
hibts together, otherwise encouraging the gather
ing and its work.
Application made to Congress for a paitry
$4,000 to aid in the work and to demonstrate the
tons appreciation of the fact that the gathering had
come here for the first time in half century.
The men who presented the request were treated
with little courtesy and in the interest Of economy
the appropriation was denied.
Then Congress proceeded to roll out and FIJI the
river and harbor pork barrel for the benefit Of states
men seeking denominations and reflections.
Other nations, even cities, have commonly ex-
tended most substantial aid to this voluntary asso-
citation of earnest men and women, working without
fee or reward for the benefit Of humanity. Econ
omy," of the kind have been getting lately, pre-
vented the United States from doing the same.

Where Sickles Shot Kew.

Eyes, gentlemen, 1t was right be-
hind that tree that Sickles stood--the
last one along the sidewalk, a. you
come down from the Belasco Theater
toward the Avenue"
The speaker. an old resident, from
discussing General Sickles' recent
unhappy domestic affairs with a
party at the New Ebbitt last evening,
had fallen into recounting that most
famous Of Washington's private
tragedies, when, on February ~,
1859, the general, then Congressman
Sickles, shot and killed James Bar
ton Key, at the corner of Pennsylva-
MIA avenue and Madison place. He
graphically detailed the event, even
to specifying the tree behind which
Sickles stood.
All OF which shows the truth Of
Victor Hugo's aphorism that sixteen
assertions equal one fact. The tree
behind which Sickles stood was cut
down thirty years ago; but q young
sapling, growing near by, received
the mantel Of the tradition, although.
to the veriest tyro in woodcraft, 1t
is patent that the tree cannot, to-
day, be more than fifty years old.
But constant re-reiteration Of tho
story has so firmly imbedded It in
the minds OF the many that none
ever thinks OF questioning It today.
And so, you may. with easy con-
science, point out that tree as the
one that screened the principal actor
in that tragedy.

Of the South where the new agricul-
tural awakening Is revolutionizins
farm methods the one-horse farmer
is putting two big horses to work
where only one small horse worked
before.
Uncle Sans cry for horses prom
ises to become as keen and persistent
as was that Of a monarch who Of
fered his kingdom for one animal.
George Rommel is doing all In his
power to prevent such a condition.
He is going at 1t with a swing. There
is force behind his personality. He
is large physically and mentally. lie
leans forward In his energy. His
eyes are keen and set at long
range focus. His large. round whole
some face portrays the turn Of his
mind. You would pick him out from
the crowd as a stockman, and man
who dotes on blood.
He has that healthy breeziness that
is characteristic of the man who
loves fine stock. Yet he is broad
enough and practical enough to de.
sire a healthy and economic dairy

A SORRY DEMONSTRATION.

strated only how far the |. W. w. outbreak may
lead to physical violence
If those who had joined had stopped with leaving
work in the mills in the misguided idea that thus the
court could be swayed in the trial Of labor leaders
the unfortunate results would have been limited to
spread of false ideas. But when force and weapons
employed to bring other employees into line, tine
COLLISION along with the savage clubbing by police,
brought serious injuries to many. There we're doubt

But the l. w. w. leaders cannot expect to get
any support for their own cause when they ask the
mill workers to await the call for new strike in case
the LABOR organizers are mot satisfied with the con-
duct of tine Ettor case'

THE ITALIAN VIEW OF ROOSEVELT,

Gugielmo -errero, the foremost modern writer
on historical subjects in Italy, contributes a leading
article to the Paris Figaro Roosevelt and the Pro-
gressive movement
Signor Ferreros personal acquaintance with The
odore Roosevelt does not affect his attitude toward
the latter as an individual force in the progress OF
events though it does add clearer and more reliable
information to the opinions of foreign critic on
American life and institutions. During an extended
visit to America in the winter and spring Of 1909 the
Italian historian also had many opportunities to study
the working of our political system under the vivid
conditions of change of Administration.
For these reasons Ferrero's opinions not only de.
serve the credit which they widely receive abroad
but he is also entitled to hearing in this country.
Roosevelt he regards as symbolic representative
of the new order which is coming to pass He speaks
of him as merely the most striking and appealing
individual figure Of an epoch-makng change in the
aspirations of the masses the world over.
But here is the valuable contribution from Italy
which rings true to the facts: Ferre-o clearly anc
emphatcally asserts tnat Roosevelt is the produc
of the movement movement far mightier and more

WoRKMENS BENEFITS AT PANAMA.

The refusal of Congress to pass Federal work
mems compensation bill still leaves to President
Taft an opportunity to put the main principles Of
that bill into operation by proclamation where the
consent Of Congress is not prerequisite On the
isthmus the conditions have long called for some
general compensatory legislation to supplement tine
excellent hospital and sanitary arrangements
1t is plausible charge, as often made on the Re-
publican side Of Congress- that the Democratic House
majority refused to pass this bill because it un-
willing to give to a Republican Administration the
credit Of enactng measures designed to benefit work
men, an attitude thoroughly consistent with the record
of the same shortsighted majority in tine matter Of
the army and navy appropriation bills.
Senator Sutherland of Utah has redrafted the
Federal bill to fit the special needs of the Zone and
il has been forwarded to Colonel Cocktails the Car
of the Isthmus for approval or suggested amendment
1t is to be hoped that this valedictory proclama-
ton may be added to the wise body of laws defining
the administration protection, and operation Of the
canal which form of the few creditable achieve
ments of the outgoing Administration.

PORTO RICO AT BREAKFAST.

One Of the fortunate results Of the big squeeze
in coffee promoted for Brazil has been to draw at
tention to the excellent coffee grown in our own
colony Of Porto Rico and to- secure more extensive
Of it. The trade reports Of the island for the
past year show that the Porto Rcan coffee crop was
the largest in the history of the industry in the island
and II was sold at prices averaging third higher
nan those Of 1901 and of several years preceding.
As is NATURAL the cultivation Of coffee is being rap
idly increased Porto Rcan coffee has been sold
hitherto almost exclusively in Europe, where II COM
mands higher price than is usually paid in the
United States for Brazilian coffee.
The island colony's foreign trade has gone up to
$92,63o,0o0, and 81 per cent Of this is with the
United States.

Here's a Book

In all modern history no more thrill

Morgan Shuster's account Of his re-
markabie experiences as Treasurer-Gen-
eral OF Persia, which has been put

strangling of Persia. For eight months
at the daily risk Of his own life' yet
with unfaltering resourcefulness ana

eminent of the United States was De-
hind him. but II was not 30 close BE-
hind him that II afforded him or his
family any actual bodily protection.
The press for months was filled with
accounts of the progress OF the struggle
of European diplomacy and oriental IN
trigue, which resulted in the denatohai-
ization Of 100000 Mohammedans. Dur
ing his eight months battle Mr.. Shuster
struggled to induce Persia to reorsanize
it's finances upon more substantial
basis, but the odds were too heavy. and
