None Of Presidential Aspirants Has

BY N. O. MESSENGER.

NEW YORK. July 12.-Somethins
like sigh of relief went UP from New
York republicans today after Col
Roosevelts departure last night for th<
Pacific coast. especially as he is going
over the Canadian route and cannot
talk American politics by the way
They would a heap rather he would
do his speechmaking on the coast than
anywhere else. OF course. is is going Il
the exposition, just as Gov. Whitman
Senator Weeks and Mr.. Mann did-with
a few political remarks on the side, OF
course.
The view taken here Of tho coloners
visit to the coast is that there is the
place for him to do his talking and make
his campaign. He is welcome to Cali
fornia-if he can get 1t, after Califor-
MAS experience since she flew to his
bosom in 1912. And anything he picks
up in intermountain regions he Is well
come to- because it's probable that Reed
Smoot would not want it.

The next candidate for the presidency
On the republican ticket is likely to be
chosen by New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio
Indiana and Illinois, the politicians think,
and the same states will be depended
upon to furnish the strength to elect.
So. with the New Workers.. it's EAU
revoir. colonel, we hope you have a
pleasant jaunt to the fair"
Many inquiries have been made recently
among the politicians as to the efforts
that are or may be made by the different
candidates to secure the vote Of the south
ern delegates to the national convention.
Results Of the inquiries have indicated
that no prospective candidate is yet doing
moro than what might be termed pre-
liminary work. in the south, which means
that feeler8 are being put out without
efforts to tie up delegations.
Seek High-arade Type.
Probably the best exposition of
this can be given in the case Of North
Carolina. Republican National Com
mittseman Duncan Of that state is in
town this morning, and says that re-
publicans down his way are more con-
cerned about the type Of the republican
candidate for REORGANIZATION than the
choice among the several individuals
that are being mentioned from time to
time.
A delegation Of high-srade. conserva-
tive republicans will be sent from this
particular state of the south, who will
confer with other delegations Of Nke
makeup in the hnal selection.

To the Unknown Dead.

One of the most touching ceremonies
of Memorial day. perhaps the one
which is felt most keenly by the sur
yiving veterans, is the tributes collect
ed in memory Of the unknown dead.
There were men who went into battle
with their comrades, who fought the
good fight and in the thick of the con-
fict disappeared forever Some who
were captured worked their way back
to liberty. Others are lying in unmark-
ed graves. And in barring his mead to
the unknown dead scarcely a soldier is
forgetful of some such incident.
Men who have tasted battle. who
have offered their lives to their coun-
try, are better able to reckon the worth
of patriotism than those who have en-
dured no greater sacrifice than paying
taxes. 1t is these men who feel most
pain when they scent a growing spirit
of indifference In the traditions Of the
nation. Such an occasion as Memorial
day deserves reverential attention, and
by their examples they try to instill
reverence and patriotic principles in
their children.
