Roosevelt The Great.

Centerville, S. d. Journal: Great is
Col. Theodore Roosevelt. what? Did
he not make William Howard Taft
president OF the United States and
then by his subsequent action defea;
him for reelection? Did he not there,
by make Woodrow Wilson president?
What right has he TO kick nov? And
yet he is not satsIied-he want to
unmake Woodrow and take his place.
The Journal was for a number OF
years an admircr OF Theodore
Roosevelt, but his action at the
Chicago convention and after has
changed its opinion OF him. Perhaps
Teddy doesn't care about that, but
the country is full of people and pa.
pers that would never change Wood
row for Teddy.

HorseIess Era in Prospect.

New York Commercials: Western
Europe will face a hOrsclesS era at
the close OF the great war if the re-
ports of mortality among horses used
both as draught animals and for cav,
airy purposes are true. Cattle are
used for farm draught purposes in
Europe much more frequently than
in the United States, but these even
are becoming scarce as the animals
crawl on their stomachs to and fra
over the devastated regions On the
other hand there is every evidence
that the motor vehicle will be used
for transportation and much of the
uses to which cattle and horses are
now put.

THE PASSING OF A RECORD.

The people of the United States
gaze across the Atlantic and then a
each other and in comfortable con
temptation of their mutual superiorit!
exchange remarks upon the incon
ceivable horror of the situation il
Europe, with something like 1000,
900 OF their benighted fellow beings
engaged in the game OF wholesale
assassination that is technical!
known as war.
Enthusiastically inclined as they are a,
the present time to give thanks that
they arc not as other men, it may
have a somewhat wholesome effect
on the American people to recall ioi
their benefit that not so long ago the
United States itself held the record
for immensely of operations in war
and that Europe once looked upon the
barbarities and the waste Of oui
own civil war III much the same way
as we now look upon those of the wal
in Europe. Apropos OF which is the
following stattment, which James q
Blaine. in Twenty Years OF Con
gress,' credits to "a leading military
man of England"
1.-The total number Of men called
under arms by the government OF the
United States between April, 1861
and April. 1865, amounted to 2.15?
O49. OF whom 2,G5G,053 were actual!
embodied in the armies. If to these
be added the 1,10oOOO men embodied
by the southern states during tho
same time the total armed forces
reach tie enormous amount OF nearly
y 10000 drawn from Il population OF
only 32,00O,00O OF all ages. Before
this vast aggregate. Nthe celebrated
uprising OF the nation in 1893, or the
recent efforts of France and Germany
in the war of 1S70-lS7l, sink into in.
Significance
Perhaps England and Germany
stood just as much aghast at the news
that $4,000 men were lost in tire"
days of fighting at Gettysburg or l2.5O0
in one day at Antietam as do we to-
day at the reports OF great losses
from Flanders or the Marne. Indeed
an added touch of horror may have
lain in the fact that the men who were
killing each other Off in such fright
lul HuIlDGIS lIiltu otutVo WI '
men of the same blood and OF the
same land and not subjects OF rival
powers.
Europe and America have simply
changed places in fifty years. Then
our European cousins occupied the
grand stand while the Americans did
combat in the arena. Today the
Americans hold down the spectators
seats while the Europeans try con-
illusions.
The record which Europe has
snatched away from the United States
is one OF which the United States is
delighted to, get rid, but the recOllcc-
ton that once upon time we held
it--and for a considerable period, at
that-at least should have the effect
of curbing any tendency to set our
selves up on any very altltudlnouS
pedestal in our own estimation

threats.
