Roosevelt as a Campaigner.
(NeW York Tines.)

When Governor Roosevelt set out on his Western journey the Republicans piousy hoped that some Iwhere he would stub his toe. There has been no toe stubbng On the contrary, the Democratic nom- inee has borne himself well. He has not promised too much, declaring plainly that recovery must be slow, but that he is determined to see, if given power, that improvement be spread all the country. He has disappointed all who tried to pie ture him radical" and who would give pledges he knew he could not keep. In his contacts with Democratic leaders and other citizens and his amiable exchanges with people in the crowds which have greeted him. the Governor has been singularly happy.
 He has been asking questions and undoubtedly he has been finding out a good deal about the thought and feeling of people west of the Hudson River
 Governor Roosevelt's Western trip taken against the advice of some of his counsellors. But he has a keen instinct in these matters and was certain that his travels would prove political success. So far they appear to have been

Senator Dirnond will open his First Division campaign at Haines and Skagway this week. He will speak at Juneau and Douglas next week. Dur ing the three weeks between now and election day he proposes to make as nearly complete canvass of Southeast Alaska possible. He will speak in all the important towns, and will be accompanied by other candidates on the Territorial and Divisional Democratic tickets.
 This First Division campaign is another instance of the first shall be last" MT. Dimond already has made a thorough campaign in the Third and Fourth Divisions He was prevented from going to Nome by airplane accident that laid him up for time, However his 5,000-mile journey through the Territory with it's contacts with the people has been enough to him victory He has made friends wherever he has been and these friends are now carrying on his campaign while he covers the First Division
 From information received by The Empire and through letters and word of mouth from people of all sections of Alaska to Juneau people it appears that MT. Dimonds election Delegate to Congress is just as certain is Gov. Roosevelts election to the Presidency. MT. Dimond is not only personally popular but he has impressed the people with his sincerity and ability People believe what he tells them and know that he will perform according to his promises, and they have confidence in his ability They believe that he come nearer getting what he asks for than any man who has been Delegate to Congress for many years
 MT. Dimond will here in the other Divisions be campaigning among his friends He always has been strong in Juneau and now people at Ket- chkan are offering to wager money that he will receive a larger majority in that town than here The Empire believes that Dimond is sure of victory Roosevelt.

PLAYING THE GAME.

In the arrangement of non-partlsan Judiciary ticket in New York Tammany assented to the nom- ination of State Senator Henry F Hofstader, Chair of the Committee for which Judge Samuel Seabury attorney. that investigated affairs of the New York City Government and made so much trouble for Mayor James J. Walker that he resigned, for Supreme Court Justice. The World Telegram says part of the bargain was that the Republicans would nominate weak Mayoralty candidate in case MT Walker the Democratic nominee.
 When politics is played game it is difficult to know what is coming next. If the World-Te gram is right it would that Senator Hofstadter plays politics that way and is adverse to play ing against or with Tammany as it might serve his own game And Tammany will give an able enemy fat job in order to win his cooperation
 However, fortunately for New York former Gov Alfred E. Smith and Gov Roosevelt are working together in the interest of honest politics and the public welfare and the Mayoralty part of the deal went boom.

Many Horses.
Seattle Times.)


 On the paved thoroughfares of the cities a horse IS so seldom seen that city dweers may be inclined to think the species virtually extinct Attendants upon such fine shows the Puyalup Fair learn better of course; and in cities where "beer parades" lately have been held the splendid progeny of some of the old brewery wagon breed have been brought to public view.
 But as rule the cities do not see enough of horses to believe that they oG much use or that there many of them in these lavishly mot orized days And it will be something of a surprise to find out that the number of horses as well as the number of mules is steadily increasing throughout the country
 According to the figures assembled by the Horse Association of America there now more than 15,000,000 horses in on American farms and about 100000 in other than farm employment. Census of American racetracks accounts for 10000 running horses and 5000 trotters and pacers Mean while, particularly in the South the demand for mules is increasing Breeders and traders in all parts of the country have little complaint to make of depression" in their lines.
 To some extent all this is ascribed to the less ened income of farmers and the cost of farm ma- chine operation and upkeep. But perhaps to some degree the movement is due to redscovery of the fact that there services which horses and mules can give to better advantage than even the best of machines.

Canadian Annexation.

From British economist the somewhat startling prediction that economic attraction" ut-
 mately may lead to the absorption of Canada by the United States This will be real news north of the international line; that it will be welcome
 information will be generally ndorsed is decidedly open to question The Dominion has made a dis tinct success going it alone thus far and there is mo reason to believe it will wish to make any important change in a situation that is eminently satisfactory to it's people
 The strange thing is that all this comment on the possibility of Canada being absorbed" by the United States from Europeans, who are only sketchily acquainted with political and other conditions this continent Americans as well as Canadians, are very happy in the present arrange ment; each finds in the other good neghbors and good customers.

 Why not ask her?" suggested Ferdinand.
 I'm asking you" said Jervis. You seem to be well behind the scenes. Did she know when she married me-or did she find out afterwards?" "Know? Of course she knew! Why do you suppose she married you?"
 Jervis set his jaw and was si- lent.
