He knew no state bounds. He rec

senators on President Wilson. What
is demanded is an early ratification
of the peace treaty and an end to the
pickering. Peanut politics, wild
play to the galleries, an attempt to
stir up class prejudice in order to
gain political ends, hardly interests
the American people.

THE ROOSEVELT FUND

Louisiana has been asked to con-
tribute to a fund for a permanent
memorial to Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt.
No quota has been set. 1t is to be
a great free-will offering of all of the
people from Maine to California and
from the Great Lakeks to the Gulf
as q testimonial of their belief in the
sane principles of Americanism
which Colonel Roosevelt constantly
preached.
The memorial may take the form
Of a monument in Washington, it is
true "a monument which many of US
may never see.
It may mean that Sycamore Hill,
the Roosevelt home at Oyster Bay,
will be converted into another Mt.
Vernon; ;anotheA remote memorial
not accessible to the majority of the
people of the Pelican State.
It will also mean, if funds permit,
the collection and dissemination
throughout the nation of the writ
ings and sayings of the late soldier
statesman.
In this all of the people will have
a direct share and in all other forms
of memorial they will have the proud
distinction of having contributed to
q cause which means that America
does not forget the men who have
labored and given freely of them
selves for its eternal prog
ress and its Qualification as
the land of Washington and
