 ROOSEVELT ARRIVED HOME TODAY

Roosevelt thought he was dying when he was suffering from an attack of fever in the Brazilian jungle. He urged the other members of the party to leave him to die and said he could best be spared.
 On the third day he lay panting on the ground. Kermit urged him to wait until the fever was over.

A LITTLE RUB AT CONGRESS

Watch Congress for the next few weeks and you will be convinced that it's principal business appears to be considering legislation psoposed by the President of the United States. One by one the august representatives Of the people have for fourteen months been rising in their places, as they will continue to do in the coming months, to state why they favor, or are opposed to the Presi- dents views upon the legislation be- fore them. A good many people are beginning to believe that legislation no longer originates in Congress, but that the function of that bunch is simply to voice approval or objec- tion to the policy Of the White House.

The label of goods stamped guar anteed under food and drugs act' is to be withdrawn from purchasers of food and medicines after May 1, 1915 because the officials in the Agricui tural Department have been hammer ing for a long time in protest of this sort of bunco comfort to the Ameri can people. The label means only that in case of prosecution the manu- lecturers will stand behind the retail CT in any suit for damages. On the other hand, the general public has a popular notion that the government has inspected and approved all the food containing a guarantee" label, whereas nothing is farther from the truth.

WILSON'S GROUNDS
 FOR TOLLS REPEAL

The Presidents demand for the re- peal of the free tolls act is based upon three grounds. He asserts:
 First-That the act is violation of our treaty agreement with Great Britain.
 Second-That it is a violation of the Democratic platform declaration against subsidies.
 Third-That it violates the nice sense of honor which has always char acterized the international policies of the United States.
 It must be admitted that these are weighty reasons if they are fact. Let us see whether they are.
 When the treaty with Great Britain was negotiated the Isthmus of Pana- ma was part of the territory of the Republic of Colombia. The treaty was negotiated upon the existent fact that the United States proposed to build an interoceanic canal across the ter ritory of another sovereign power. The international character of the canal and the acknowledged inability of the weak Colombian republic to protect that or any other portion of it's soil from strong attack were the funda- mental facts upon which the treaty stood.
 Since the negotiation of that treaty the basic facts have disappeared The canal traverses United States territory. Colombia has been eliminated The waterway is American-as much so as is the Erie canal And, with the of Colombian sovereign ty over the soil there disappears also the bases upon which the treaty was erected. AS matter of international | law the United States is bound by l

THE LITERARY TEST

While there has been a good dea of talk to the effect that immigrants coming to the United States ought to be required to submit to literary test it must be apparent that there are two sides to this question, and Mary Antin, Hebrew immigrant from Rus sia, voices the opposition.
 "Is no Hebrew refugee to be re- ceived into the United States unless he can read thirty words of the Con- stitution?" she asks, and then adds: They would not realize how such restrictions could be imposed in great and gloriously free America, which has always stood for absolute freedom in their eyes,"

no obligation of the -Paunceforte
 treaty based upon conditions which have ceased to exist.
 We are not bound at all to arbitrate the meaning of the clause of that treaty in dispute. For, no matter what it did mean once, it means nothing now, since the whole clause is dead under the indisputable rule of interna tional law. Nor can Great Britain dispute this interpretation, since by it she formally, and very properly, jus tified her fertilization of the Suez canal when Egypt ceased to exist as an independent power and became a British dependency in fact
 As to the second contention:
 The Democratic platform declared that party to be opposed to the crea- tion of ship subsidies. The plank spoke in the future tense There was no mention of the repeal of an existent law, though every delegate knew the free tolls law was in effect, just as every delegate and the candidate and the platform itself emphatically ap- proved of that law
 The declaration of the Democratic platform and the Democratic candi- date against future ship subsidies and the accompanying declaration in favor of retaining the free tolls law then in force were not in any sense opposed. They were, on the other hand, in com plete harmony, and were so understood to be by every delegate, by every can didate and by every one of the seven million members of the party.
 We affirm, with all possible empha- sis, that the second reason given by President Wilson is not fact. It is not candid reaon. It is not even an ex- istent reason. It is poor quibble of MT. Bryans manufacture, and it is1 sufficient characterization to say that it is wholly in harmony with the intel ligence and the integrity of it's author.
 The third of the Presidents reasons stands or falls with the other two. It s mere declaration. It smacks of the Chautauqua platform. Unctuous ora tors peddle similar platitudes at the usual lyceum rate of $250 a night We shall waste no space in arguing over I copybook maxim, which has nothing to do with the merits of the grave and serious question upon which the Presi- lent has determned to wreck his party and to do irreparable harm to the trade and industries of the American people.
 MT. Wilson is wrong in business way, wrong in a party way, wrong in T legal way and wholly and indefensi ply wrong as to the way in which American honor, policy and power should go bravely hand in hand-Los Angeles Examiner.

 By means of personal letters to many of last years guests and others of prominence in all parts of Arizona, Secretary Malcoml Fraser of the Pres colt chamber of commerce, is en- deavoring to line up his lists. The letters read as follows:

 ed the courage to propound it on
 this occasion. We hope the young
 graduates will not be utterly cast
 down by the picture of inequality and
 disaster painted by the orator of the
 evening. We hope they will not go
 through life with a scowl and a frown
 in a pessimistic spirit, and words of
 den1hciation on their lips for the best
 government yet devised by man. It is easy to criticise and tear down and so difficult to construct. Our Socia- list friends would disrupt our present system of government but they have nothing to offer in it's place but chaos and turmoil. For hundred years the American people have been perfect ing their government and will con- tlnue to do so in a spirit of patriotism, but the solid rock of foundation, as. embodied in our Constitution and our Declaration of Independence. is the. same today, and will remain the same to the end, if this government is to survive and it's citizens prosper. So cialist theorists may harp and criticise but so long as the American flag floats over the public schools of this coun- try there is no danger of recruits for the ranks of socialism and govern ment paternalism.

STUDY POLITICAL FEATHERS AFFILIATE WITH
 HONEST LEADERS IF AN HONEST PARTY ID MN

cred your connections, not with the
 Glorious Old Party but with the
 dirty, insignificant, corrupt offspring of what was once party as good as
 were it's leaders, which it is today,
 why do you keep looking back over
 your shoulder, wondering whether
 there are more honest people ahead
 of you than there are crooks behind you? If you wish to associate with
 crooks and white-slavers? Why did you leave them and start out on the
 road of self respect which leads to
 political righteousness as taught and enunciated by the Progressive party
 platform and principles? If you were travelling in an unknown country on broad highway, and came to fork in the road at which were sign-boards, one of them reads "This road leads to the headquarters of Red Rolfe, the robber; if you take this road and escape with your life, you are sure to lose all else'; and the sign over the other road reads "This road leads to land of plenty, where all men are equal and no criminals allowed. you would naturally follow the road leading to the land of plenty; would you not? Of course. if you had nothing to lose, not even a good name, you might take your chances with Red Rolfe, hoping that he could use you in his band of robbers.
 The moral of all this is, that if you were sincere when you joined the Progressive party, and are honest now, it is your duty to go straight ahead on the lines laid down by our platform. It is not a question as to whether we are to win this fall, it is the question of keeping the criminal out of yuor house. Every time the corrupt boss
 S defeated, you win; every time you refuse to do wrong you do right; in other words, you win. If you have got to be paid to do right and vote right, by having a public office placed at your disposal, you are not Pro gressive party man; you are socalled Progressive-for-revenue-only. The way to win your political fight is to vote l for the right this year, next year, and just as many years as is necessary | until you see your platform and prin- ciples enacted into law. Then you win. Any man who grows weary in | well-doing, politically or otherwise, is not worth the powder to blow him to hades.
 And, remember this: A politica' party is nothing more or less than 2 | large number of persons who mutually | agree to be led and dictated to by ! small number of leaders, who may be crooks or honest men; the person lel of which is always changing; and ! political party is just as good as its leaders and no better. In other words | ! party may be model Of decency and honesty today and in four years from now. be as rotten as is the Republican today.
 The sum and substance of all this advice is, that every honest voter should vote for the men and party hat he believes to be the better for himself and country.
