roDAY,s BABY IS roMoRRow,s PHILOSOPHER

The world is progressing.
1t has marched down through Pioneers Day, Early Settlers
Day, Mothers Day, Fathers Day, Chilren's Day, to "Baby Week, y
through which we have just passed.
We are beginning to appreciate that the baby of today is the
philosopher Of tomorrow.
We are coming to realize that the baby is but the man in embryo
and that as the baby is so the man will be.
or the girl is up to the age of sixteen, so will the man or the woman
be: that, as the baby lives on through It's boyhood to the age of six
teen, so it will continue to be as a man.
Out Of many hundreds of cases which he had investigated, said
this man of much travel and thousands Of public addresses, the in
stances wherein this rule failed were 20 rare as to justify the state
.ment that ii could be accepted without question.
Some students OF sociology go ever farther and say that If you
will give them the first seven years of a child life you may have
all the rest, implying that the character may be so formed and
moulded during these seven years as to be carried through the bal
|ance of the chHds life to old age.
Certain it is that the first few years, yea, even the first year,
or the first week, has a bearing upon the life that follows.
1t is found to be so in the rearing of domestic animals with
respect to their physical being. Why should it not be so with the
|chid2 Why not 50, also. with regard to his mental and spiritual
life?
Some wise man once observed that if a child be trained to walk
Alright he will not depart from the path Of rectitude in his old age.
Whether Baby Week has come to stay or whether 1T has not,
the baby is here to stay, and as he is as a baby and as a child he is
likely to be as a man.
The baby, after all, is the most important human thing in the
world.

THE PRESIDENTIAL TREND.

1t is conceded that nobody will contest the democratic nomina.
ssa with Woodrow Wilson, but the situation within the republican
party is in marked contrast.
It is evident that the big republican guns of the east would like
to rally around the Root banner but for the fact that Roots nominal
ton is a matter OF propriety from the standpoint of getting the
Votes at the polls.
But it is also obvious that while a few of the ultra standpatters,
like Barnes, are doing their utmost to stem the Roosevelt tide, it is
equally apparent that much of the bitterness entertained towards
the man from yesterday among the leading Taft republicans has
been swept away. From their standpoint, the chief aim is to capture
the presidency, and many of them are willing to do it with Theodore
Roosevelt rather than not accomplish it at all.
Roosevelt himself is not a candidate-at least, not an active
candidate-andi if he receives the nomination at Chicago it will be
because the consensus of the working republicans, the republicans
who stand in the thickest of the fight, unite in the opinion that
Roosevelt would be the strong candidate to pit against Wilson.
The republican trend, however, is Enthusiastically towards the
former republican president. The Saturday News doubts, neverthe-
less, whether the great American sportsman will again lead the re-
publican party in a national campaign, but it admits the possibility.
The police of st. Paul discovered ten store doors unlocked the
ether night, the proprietors or ianitors or caretakers having gone
home for the night without locking ri the outside doors. Maybe
they were in cahoots with the thieves!

OR NOT SUPPORTING TEDDY.

The Argus-Leader says it WON support Theodore Roosevelt If
he is nominated by the republicans.
1t also AYERS that there are thousands OF republicans III this
state who will not support him even II he should become the party
nominee.
1t is always commendable to be thus frank. 1t is the constitu-
tional right of any republican, or any democrat, or any member OF
any party, to refuse to support the party nominee. That's one OF
the rights which no court, no clique, no bosses, can take from a man
unless, perchance, they manipulate affairs as they did i'll South
Dakota in 1912 in denying the republicans an opportunity to vote
for their party nominee.
While there are some republicans that The Saturday News would
not support, if nominated, Theodore Roosevelt is not one OF them.
Unlc it changes it's mind in the meantime, which is hardly likely to
happen, it will support Mr.. Roosevelt if he is nominated, although it
Is not supporting him for the nomination.
And we believe that Theodore Roosevelt would carry South
Dakota in a competition with Woodrow Wilson.
