Roo.evslt and Bureaucracy.

II Mr.. Roosevelt and baked clans
together could not draw more than
1000 where 10000 people had been ex-
pected at Newport, r. l., the popular
ity OF the senior ex.president is evap-
Grating rapidly. We had strong sus-
picion at the time that Mr. Roosevelt
was mistaking for personal adulation
the popular enthusiasm for the pres
idency. With an uncommonly interest
ing personality. and with the trucu-
lence that always draws crowd,
whether to a dog fight or fight for a
presidential nomipation, Mr. Roose-
welt retained the popular interest. for
the full four years during which he
was the only ex-president. But If
Rhode Island reflects public opinion
throughout the nation, the popular in
terest only extends to the ultimate
and penultimate president; it cannct
go so far back as the antepenulti-
mate.

Progressive Prospects.

We have no desire to depreciate the
strength of the Bull Moose party. or
to belittie the aims and ideals of the
unselfish and patriotic men who,
weary Of the internal conditions of
the two old parties, Joined the Pro
gressive movement in the hope of bet
ter things. But 1t is evident that there
are not yet sufficient number of Re-

The significance of Tammany Halls
Fourth of July protest against the
neglect of the American navy lies in
the fact that the political party to
which Tammany belongs is response
bic for the false economy which has
caused the neglect. If Tammany's
protest, including Senator O'Gorman's
letter as well as the resolution unani-
mously adopted, is to be accepted as
authoritative advice to the Democrat
ic congressman from his state by
which their future action in regard
to naval affairs win be governed. its
influence may be potent. The deter
mination to keep down appropriations
for battleships. however. seems to be
constitutional with some of the mem
bers of the majority in congress.
The need OF keeping up the navy is
not a matter of opinion Politics,
whether Republican. Progressive. or
Democratic, should have nothing to
do with it. The people throughout
the country are anxious that the navy
shall be placed in a condition to pro-
tect the coasts and the Isthmian
canal Mr. O'Gorman recognizes that
it is "the duty of the Democratic
party to restore our navy to its for
mer proud position" We hope that he
and all the other Democratic members
of congress win bear that duty in
mind

Flower Ornaments In Vouue.
In one OF my recent articles l spoke
in detail OF these curious flowers which
are now so fashionable in Paris. They
hardly deserve the name Of flowers at
all, for they are absolutely unreal, in
design as in material. They are simply
exotic ornaments which give a splen-
didly effective finishing touch to an
elaborate costume, and they are wora
at the waist or breast as though they
were In reality flowers.
Sometimes these ornaments take
the form of conventional roses in vivid
colors and with strings of tiny dia-
monds veining the petals and leaves;
sometimes they represent water lilies
in hack velvet. Sometimes they are
like sunhowers in shape. but carried
out in green or vermiIion velvet. They
were invented by one of the most
eclectic couturieres in Paris as an eff
fective final note for clinging robes Of
tulle or embroidered chiffon and for
this purpose they are having an ex
traordinary success.
