WORE WORK FOR UNCLE SAM

the United States is not to have voice in
settling the affairs of the old world without as
sumin9 share of its burdens and responsible
ties. Il some of our British admirers have their
way. The London Round Table says this nation
would be an ideal custodian of the Dardanel-
les" because of our detachment, and for the
same reason Americas task in preserving the
autonomy of Armenia, Arabia and Persia will
be easier than If it were to rest in our (Bri-
tains hands and 'her vast Jewish population

Observer quotes these words with approval and
s~ys "the United Kingdom has enough to man

share Of the white mans burden on Uncle Sam.

do the main part Of putting Russia on her feet.

only few years since we turned over the Phil

LET Us BE ON OUR GUARD

We have heard great deal about the Seattle
strikers, proiteerers; porch. climbers; bootleg
gers tinhorn-g gamblers; bunco steerers and
hush-whackers, that We should know what to
DO now; and that is, keep away from there. Yet
according to reports hundreds Of Alaskans are
wintering there. Surely it cannot be any of
the above traits that can draw northerners. for
their tendency runs in different channel pea
sc. live and let live" is their motto; and most
try to live up to it. 1t is possible. however that
they SO to Seattle just for a change. Be that as
ii may; while we have no fear that any Alas
kan shall ever become affected with the Seattle
diseases--that of making trouble; it wouldn't
hurt to be little cautious and hold the return
ing visitors in quarantine for month or six
weeks. or until they have let go of the Seattle
spirit that is getting extremely notorious and
widely known. We don't want any of that wild
scramble for money. De we?

THE SMELLING" SCANDALS

|T\HE REPUBLICAN CAMPAIGN of dis
closures" is dying a natural death. Highly
sensational canards have been sent flying about
for the past year. Finding fault has become
a habit with them until they are now finding
fault with themselves They have run the
whole gamut from personal libel to treacher-
Gus scandal. No cause has been too sacred; no
personal relation too tender to escape their
shafts. They have even waved the American
flag in one or two instances above their own eff
forts to drag it down.
And now 'the cat is dying" They are find
ing that the democrats cleaned their house be-
fore, during and after The war
The republicans were invited to discover
something that had not been made known al
ready through the democratic policy of pitiless
publicity No great scandals have been un-
covered. Being "brutally frank" is a hard
matter when one is trying to accomplish a big
job, because it invites criticism, but the repub-
licans are beginning to discover that the demo-
cratic administration has been so open with the
people that their campaign Of discoveries" is
useless. Consequently a campaign Of yituper-
alton, which has already begun was not uneX-
pected

THE PRESIDENT WAS WRONG

CONGRESS WAS RIGHT and the president
~ was wrong. Al least once congress was
right Nearly three months ago the president
asked congress to refrain from its self-granted
vacation and remain on the job to put through
legislation designed to lower the high living
cost
The president even went to the point of
addressing congress, telling that body some Of
the measures that had suggested themselves to
him as possible preventive program.
AT that time leaders Of congress declared
it was useless for congress to remain in session
to combat the living cost. Since then the attor-
ney-general, with what weapons he has been
able to gather, has waged a bitter war against
the profiteer that is now showing some results
But as the partisan leaders Of congress
said, ut was useless for congress to remain in
session" They have proved they were right
and the president was wrong. There really
was no use.
Maybe congress wants the living cost to
stay where it is. Most likely the republican
party in spite of its protests of re-birh is still
catering to the interests

ROOSEVELT DEAD.
Former President Roosevelt
Succumbs TO Sudden illness
at Oyster Bay
Died at = A. N. Monday
Details Arc Lacking, But an Attack
Of infiammatory Rheumatism
Brought on the illness.


New York. Jan.6.-Colonel Theo-
dore Roosevelt died at his home in
Oyster Bay early today.
News OF the death OF the former
president was received at New York
by Miss Josephine Striker, the coll
onel's secretary, in telephone mes
sage from Mrs. Roosevelt.
Miss Striker said that the Colonel
had suffered an attack Of inflamma

tory rheumatics on New Years day,
and had since been more or less con-
fined to his room.
In announcing Col. Roosevelts
death, Miss Striker said:
Mrs. Roosevelt called me ON the
telephone shortly before o'clock
iFsaying that the colonel had died early
today. She did not give me any par
ticulars and am leaving at once for
Oyster Bay.
The attack must have been very
sudden. On New Years Day infiam-
matory rheumatism developed in Col
onel Roosevelt's right hand which
became very much swollen. Mrs.
Roosevelt sent for nurse in the viii
age and the colonel was made as COM.
Portable as possible. It did not occur
to me at that time that he was SER
iously ILL.,
Miss Striker went to Oyster. Bay
last Saturday to pay the colonel a
visit She said:
At that time the colonel was
sleeping in his room and did not
see him and there was nothing In the
circumstances of his illness at that
time to indicate to me that death was
near. When Mrs. Roosevelt called
! me this morning and told me Of the
Colonel's death, could hardly be-
lieye It.
Mrs. Roosevelt gave me no partic-
ulars of his DEATH
1t is understood that only Mrs.
Roosevelt and the nurse were with
him at the time of his death. The
other members OF the family are In
other parts Of the country OF abroad.
/ A telephone message received later
this morning from Oyster Bay said
that Colonel Roosevelt had died at 4
o'clock this morning.
