There the hunters are now kept. Pad
docks and schooling rings meet your
eve as you drive up the long, winding
road to the house. The farms lovely

timism of one who Is headed toward the Presi-
dency or any other position of great influence.
In fact we would feel no end worried about
John and offer him the spare room in our house,
were it not for one phrase in his utterance which
suggests there is not SO much bitterness in his
soul as his words suggest.
That phrase-"those who supped at labors table
and were sheltered in labor's house"-that's a
stock phrase of his which he is likely to use on
any occasion. He likes it and keeps it on the
shelf. He is likely to go over and get it any time
just as fellow would go over and pour himself
a drink. He applied it to Don Richberg one time
without any particular rhyme or reason. 1t just
happened to be there handy.
Its use against Mr.. Roosevelt suggests that
John is not in so bad plight as he sounds.
really bitter man doesn't select his phrases. He
just cries out using the words that come readily
to mind. And the rest of his attack has this in
coherency. But that phrase, chose who supped
at labor's table and were sheltered in labor's
house., is different. It stands out to suggest that
John is not in any unusual mood, just the same
cid John.
We do wish, though, that he would go ahead
and have convention of his c. l. o. so we could
get a line on how many members he really has,
duespaying ones. They won't total anything like
100000. But we know he has got some.
And he certainly can't blame it on Mr.. Roose
welt if he hasn't got every wage Garner in the
country. 1t appears to us that Mr.. Roosevelt did
everything he could for him, except stand in the
picket line and throw bricks. That must be what
John wants him to do.

But the United States Navy had come to the
