ROOSEVELT-REPUBLICAN.
(POst-IntelliPencer)


 Theodore Roosevelt, sterling American yirile patriot and aggressive citizen earnestly all his followers to support the candidacy Charles Hughes for presi dent of the United States.
 He advocates this not partisan grounds not on the score of political expedency as press ing imperative duty to the country Appraising the Wilson administration as the weakest since Buchanans and characterizing as utterly un out the Union to unite wholehearedly with Repub in this campaign and thus put an end to the in competent, vacillating regime at Washington
 He comments the nomination of Hughes unreseryedly as attuned to awakened national sentiment and truly representing the demands of the hour.
 All hail Theodore Roosevelt!
 His vision is clear This ringing statement of his emphasizes his greatness. It is in keeping with the magnificent work he has done these past abnormal months in stirring and stimulating Americanism and focusing attention upon pers confronting nation It is in keeping with the character of the man.
 He more than any other statesman has made the big burning issues that enter into the impending presidential contest It is worth much the country that the party to which he gives ungraudging allegiance more to have his counsel and his leadership.
 The country needs him. his party needs him.
 That Progressves generally will heed advice and emulate his example becomes now an assured fact With candidate acceptable and platform embodying the principles for which they cannot be otherwise Hence reunited rehabitated Republican party streng thened in the emergency inyncibe front for the conflict to come.
 It means victory in November the early transfer of the government from incompetent competent hands and the restoration of the nations prestige and honor On with the campaign.

ALL ARE WELCOME.

For weeks the people of Ketchikan have been preparing for this Fourth of July celebration. They have spent great deal of time, money and energy preparing amusements with which to en- certain their guests in beftting manner. They have spared nothing. AS matter of fact they have gone the extreme to find ways and means to amuse the visitors.
 These elaborate preparations were not made for the residents, but for the visitors who might visit our city during the holidays. In doing so they have opened the gate of the city and invited all to come and participate in all and every amusement
 The Progressive-Miner feels justified in assum- ing that whole-hearted welcome is extended by every resident to all and every visitor. This as- sumption is based upon the knowledge that the Ketchikaners are friendly "critters" and want to share their pleasure with whomsoever kindly dis posed. Let the strangers forget they are strang- CTS and join in the celebration of the Glorious Fourth The welcome is from the heart.

 Today on the Mexican border there is concentrated wothirds of the mobile army of the United States-a nation of 1OO000000 souls Yet before troops able to advance into Mexico a punitive expedition against bandit chief it found necessary to send for endorsements from California, Georgia Kansas and Virginia and before expedtonary force could ture upon foreign soil it found 1t necessary tse for ftyfour motor trucks for the transport supplies.

LET US BE CAREFUL.

In many cities throughout the States, the cele- bration of the Fourth of July is minus fire-crack- CTS. The elimination of fireworks was no doubt due to sad experience; possibly to the maiming of children destruction of property or something that happened that saddened the life of some one. Our city is so constructed that in these dry days should fire be started none can tell what the result might be; and the whole city may suf- fer. It behooves us to be careful of fire Like wise, never loose sight of the little ones that no harm may come to them. Let the fire-crackers alone" would seem an appropriate advice to give

FIND GOODNESS IN PLEASURE
People Are Beginning to Understand
That 1t Is a Mistake to Work
Too Hard.

For a good many years we had q
creed that the only way to keep men
| or women good was to work them to
death. We didn't consider ourselves
virtuous unless we ended each day so
toil-wearied that we had no ambition
| for anything but bed. When we had
holiday we didn't know how to use
it, and either slept it away or did
something that landed us in Jail.
The doctors are telling us now that
there is fatigue poison; that we owe
it to ourselves not to overwork. The
great labor unions are demanding
shorter hours and graded work, so that
men and women workers shall not be
overtaxed. and so that the few may
not be overworked and underpaid at
the expense of the many.
We are learning very, very gradu.
ally, that man was not created to labor
IS hours out of the "a in order that
he may have the privilege of eating
and sleeping. Very, very gradually
we are being taught that we are part
ners in Gods pasture, and that, rich
or poor, we have the right to take our
share of sunshine and fresh air and an
idle time to enjoy them.
A fair measure of leisure in each
day is necessary to cultivate sweet
ness and saneness of soul. and the
man or woman, boy or girl, so over
worked that there is no opportunity
for recreation, never reaches the high
er planes of being. Indeed, too much
work has often been as much breed
er of crime as too much idleness.
Sometimes it is i desperate effort
to escape from the grind. More often
it is an intelligent craving for excite
something different"
l believe it is in one Of Aesop's
fables where we are told of the man
who was so busy grubbing in the muck
heap that he never had time to look
up and see the crown above his head.

Importance of Thrift.

The present year marks the hum
dredth anniversary Of savings banks
in the United States The Philadel-
phia Savings Fund society came into
being in 1916. New York was three
years late in catching step with the
Quaker city. While the last decade
shows a remarkable increase in saw
ings deposits, America is far behind
some European countries in the prac-
tice Of thrift. Only II per cent of our
population is counted among the saw
ers, whereas France numbers 346 per
cent, or more than one-third OF its
people, in the class who lay by. The
importance Of that fact is seen in the
financial stability of France under the
heavy strain of war.
