Roosevelt and the League.

Some Of the dove-cotes in Corioli
are greatly; auttered by the words Of
Senator Johnson concerning Theodore
Roosevelt and the league of nations.
That plain-spoken statesman from the
land of plain-speaking bluntly declares
that if any man says that Theodore
Roosevelt would have favored the
league of nations "that man les To
that "short and ugly word" he adds
confidently that if Theodore Roosevelt
were now living, instead Of favoring
or even acquiescing in the league she
would be the one man who would de-
feat it." How does the senator know?
pipe the denationalists. Has he di-
rect communication with the spirit
world?
It is not necessary. The denational-
lists themselves have admitted the
truth of Senator Johnson's words.
Only little while ago, as we quoted
him in these pages, one of the fore
most advocates of the league described
Theodore Roosevelt as the one man
who would have defeated it, and glee-
fully chuckled over the fact that "the
power called God" had taken the gal
liant spirit out of the way That mon
strous indecency served at least one
good purpose. It fixed forever. on the
denationalists' own testimony, the at
titude of Theodore Roosevelt toward
the league.
But even that was not necessary.
Long before that revolving utterance
Theodore Roosevelt himself had made
indisputably plain his attitude of i'm
placable and aggressive hostility to
any such league as that provided for
in the covenant Of the denationalists.
Here are his exact words, the words
Of him who, being dead, yet speaketh:
"There is no limit to the greatness
of the future before America, before
our beloved land. But we can realize
it only if we are Americans, if we are
nationalists, with all the fervor of our
hearts and all the wisdom of our
brains. We can serve the world at all
only if we serve America first and
best. We must work along our own
national lines in every field of achieve
ment. We must feel in the very mar
row of our being that our loyalty is
due only to America, and that it is
not diluted by loyalty for any other
nation or all other nations on the
face Of the earth. Only thus shall we
fit ourselves really to serve other ma
tions, to refuse ourselves to wrong
them, and to refuse to let them do
wrong or suffer wrong"
Senator Johnson is right. The au-
thor Of the words which we have
quoted could not possibly have favored
or tolerated any proposition for be-
coming denationalists instead of ma
tionalists, for serving America only
after we have served every other tribe
and nation, for declaring national
law played out" for abrogating the
independence of the United States,
and for making this country not an
integral nation but vulgar fraction
of an international league. To say
that he would have done so is to lie;
or to play the insufferable fool.-Har-
vey's Weekly. :

His Warm Suspenders.

1t was dawn and very chilly in camp,
and one man was unable to find
any of his outer garments. He wan
dered about, asking all his mates if
they knew where they were.
"Has any one seen my BIB blanket ?"
he demanded and was told that no one
had.
HAS any one seen my t-t-trousers ?"
No answer.
"Well, I'm jolly g-glad I have on my
nice w-w-warm pair of sus-suspen-
ders.''
