Founder of " shin gton State To,vn, " edlthy Lumberman, Dies

KANSAS CITY, March 16-R. A. Long, aged 8S, chairman of the Board of the Long-Bell Lumber Company and founder of a large lumber fortune, builder of the town of Longview, Washington, died in hospital here last night. He was operated upon Tuesday for an intestinal obstruction.
 When he was 22 years old, R. A. Long went into the hay business in Columbus, Kansas, with Robert White and Victor Long as partners. It had been pointed out to the young men that the grass on the Kansas prairie could be bought cheaply and converted into hay. Young Long cut and placed in stack some 300 tons of the grass, but much of it was brown before cutting and was not salable. It was in closing out the business that a queer trick of fate turned him into the lumber business.
 After the hay was disposed of, young Long began tearing down the sheds he had used to shelter it, two or three carloads in all. This lumber he sold at a profit. Ceveral Columbus merchants bought, and each one pointed out to him that lumber yard in Columbus would be paying prop osition. Young Long was looking for opportunity so he consulted with an uncle in Kansas City, bor- rowed money from the uncle's bank and with White and Bell again as partners, embarked or the career which was to lead him to one of the foremost places in the lumber industry.
 R. A. Long was born on a farm near Shelbyville, Ky, December IT,

ROOSEVELT HAS PUT CRITICS ON
 REAL HOT SPOT
Administration Seeks Grit icism-Now What Do
 You Suggest?
By BYRON PRICE
(Chief of Bureau, The Associated
 Press, Washington

(Chlet of Bureau, The Associated
 Press, WashingtonD
 Some simple precepts for admin istration strategy in the coming campaign are to be found between the lines of President Roosevelt's $ address to the MIRA meeting in Washington.
 During one short passage of. the address, MT. Roosevelt definitely assumed the defensiye-an attitude almost wholly lacking hitherto in his public utterances. He assured his critics his regime was not un- American; and declared he resent ed criticism only from those who had nothing better to suggest.
 This language struck directly at two of the fundamentals on which current opposition is based, and on which rest many of the hopes of his political opponents. They have accused him of seeking to set up an unconstitutional dictatorship, and of being resentful of all critic ism.
 With Republican protest and Democratic revolt stiffening in Congress, it was not surprising that MT. Roosevelt chose that par ticular moment to make his first campaign-year reply to his critics; to recognize, for the first time, although not by name, the attacks which have emanated from the Republican National Committee.

REGARDING .1sMs"

No one doubts his words will be studied by every administration spelIbinder, and be highly potential in shaping the trend of political discussion in 1884
 Those who complain of a ten dency to fascism, or communism, or some other ism" are to be told that they merely do not recognize good old American Democracy when they see it, having seen so little of it in recent years
 Those who complain that the farm relief policy. or the home loan policy, or the new deal, itself, has failed, will be answered with a question already put by the President into these words: Well, old man, what do you suggest"
 That form of campaigning would seem to simplify matters considerably, and to take out of political discussion a good deal of the color and detail which often entertain and sometimes instruct the voters in campaign years.
