THEODORE ROOSEVELT DIES
End Came Peacefully at Night While
lie Slept and No One Was Near.

It was strange end for q stormy
career! Probably no man who lived
most Of his life in a peaceful country
and during peaceful times ever lived
such a stormy and cventful life, and
yet the end came while he slept peace
fully at homo early Monday morning
and so quietly and quickly that no one
was with him in his last moments.
During the nearly eighteen years
since the death OF William Mckinley
there has been no question at any time
but what be was the most prominent
figure in American life, ard whether
uli agreed with him ur not, a popular
vote at any time would unquestion
ably have pronounced him the fore
most American. Whether right or
wrong. as president. statesman. soldier
and citizen, hc was always a positive
and conscientious figure ia American
lifc-onc Of the few Of our public men
who never saw the scat on the fence,
but was always on one side or the
other. Virilc, able. patriotic, and with
q hold on the people never surpassed
by any man he had a deeper aud more
positive influence and effect ON the ma
ton than any man since Lincoln. He
more than any event or any desire Of
administration forced the entrance or
America into the great war and plac-
ed us where we belong in the front
ranks Of the great nations Of the
world. Though the cause was defeat
ed at the polls in 1916 his influence
and power had so forced the hands Of
Mr.. Wilson that he could not remain
in his old attitude of "too proud 20
fight" And the country took lis place
side by side with It's allies where il
should have been in August, 1914, and
where It would have been had Mr..
Roosevelt been president.
One of Americas greatest citizens
has passed away and the flags today
are at half mast throughout the coun-
'rv. but The good he did and the inn
print he has left on the public life OF
the nation viii live for generations.

One War Revelation.

One great public fact brought out
by the war is that multiplicity Of gov
ernment enterprises has shown a great
trend toward inefficiency.
Industries embraced under war
ecessities and not protected against
political pull, in most cases showed
poor results far below American stand
ards.
Under our political system and party
rule those who advocate taking over
all the important industries in times
of peace, work against public vel
fare.
Government ownership and opera
tion of any industry means increased
cost of production and lessened out
put. with consequent higher cost to
the people.
Who gets the increased outlay for
the product? The army of officials
who constitute the inevitable political
overhead or public administration.
All who work for the government
slow down their efforts for they are
not subject nor indeed can they be
made subject to laws of competition
To place all industries under govern
ment management means to create
privileged class, destructive to liberty
and becoming constantly more ineffi-
cient.
The example Of what it lead to in
Germany, centralized autocraey, and
what It led to in Russia, anarchy in
stead of order, ought to be a sufficient

YAMBAs HAVE GREAT YEAR
Report of Treasurer Gives Some Idea
of the Work Done by These Live
Boosters.

y, At a mectlng OF the \. NJ u. A.
Phoard of directors held last Saturday
r. j, MeGmth, treasurer, made fl
nancial report for the past year which
viii give some idea of the work done
bv this organization in boosting La
mar and entertaining the visitors in
our midst
The report showed that on the first
day Of January last year the funds
were practically nil-just 60 cents in
the treasury. The membership dues
are only 81 per year and the young
men refuse to ask donations-every
cent must be obtained by giving the
public more than value received. Not
withstanding all this they spent over
s2lOO during the year boosting La
mar and entertaining visitors and as
sisting the good roads work, and they
still have over $3.50 in the treasury.
'-s,ey is. that for hustling and good
nent?
Ter i'm addition to all this
ook and with the help of
over the big Red Cross
h netted over four
20 aid the work Of
uuuty Chapter. 1t was
q. and the boys are just
,oir stride. Many Of their
best members have been in France
fighting for their country, and when
they return the work Of the organiza-
tion will go forward stronger than
ever.
When the national organization gets
ready to reenter the game and hold
that delayed national convention the
Lamar bunch will be ready to enter
tain them in a style that will make
them sit up and take notice.
