An editorial writer in The Chicago

An editorial writer in The Chicago
Evening Post, of June 10, says:
'Now, the automobile being deadly
weapon, is still such when inert, the
same as loaded revolver or shotgun
with shells in the chambers. To leave
this deadly weapon so that it may easily
come to the hands of the irresponsible
or the vicious is, therefore, more or less
of menace to mankind in general, and
to women and children in particular.
Any one of a dozen simple locking con-
trivances enables the owner to unload
his gun, to render his deadly weapon
harmless, to remove the menace to the
life and limb of the community.
"How familiar is the story Of the
reckless joy rider in an automobile
picked up at haphazard in the street by
reckless youth inspired by half a dozen
highballs.
"Now, gentlemen, for the sake of others
if not for yourselves, just remember
to unload that deadly weapon when you
leave it on the street, the country road
or even in your garage for the night.
Safety first for yourself is good rule,
but safety first for others is better still.
''No gentleman ever puts gun in the
gun rack or leaves it anywhere without
first drawing the shells. Do the same
with your car; make it the etiquette of
the game

An editorial in The NeaU York Globe
also says:
when Colonel Roosevelt returned
from Africa he said that he come back
with but one desire, and that was to
assist, as far as he was able, in solving
the problems Of the country which had
SO greatly honored him. His aspiration
has been gratifed. His clear voice
awakened the country out of the coma
of sordidness into which it was sinking.
He induced the administration to right
about face, and his was the dominating
influence in the proceedings of both of
last weeks conventions. Presidents
may come and go, the creatures of an
hour, but Colonel Roosevelt abides. de-
stined, as far as anyone can foresee, to
