ROOSEVELT MAY
ENTER CAMPAIGN
President. Frets at Enforced In
activity in Nation's Battle
for Presidency.
Robt. Simpson, tho Staff Correspon
dent of Pittsburg Gazette-Times, wires
his paper an interesting letter from
Cincinnatti, dated Sept. 20th, from
which we make a few extracts:
Theodore Roosevelt has been chafing
under the restraint placed upon him
by his presidential office, and that his
fighting spirit has been aroused by re
cent events is information that must
come from him, if from any source.
He has been reluctant for obvious rea
sons to appear prominent ly in the cam
paign. But it is difficult for the Presi
dent to restrain the man and at any
moment the man may assert himself
It will he well to keep one ear toward
the east.
Because Cincinnati is the home of
both Taft and Foraker, the incident of
the Archbold letters continues the one
large topic of conversation. It had
more than anything else to do with
keeping Senators Crane and Dick here
today. Senator Crane had been billed
for an appearance for nearly a week
before he arrived enroute to Chicago,
lie could have completed his business
yesterday and departed last night.
DON'T KICK A MAN WHEN DOWN.
To-day with Senator Dick, he visited
Senator Foraker. It was described as
only a social call. Late in the after
noon he visited Judge Taft and also
met Charles P. Taft, who had just re
turned from a long vacation on Long
Island. This was termed a social in
cident only.
With their departure the Foraker
discussion is likely to lag, for Judge
Taft's" oposition is that it would be
unmanly to kick a man when he is
down.
His friends who could not induce him
to speak on Friday, and cannot per
suade him to make an expression now,
point out that the allegations mado
against Senator Foraker and the sena
tor's replies to them are justification of
the whole attitude of Taft and Theo
dore Roosevelt, who have been endeav
oring "to put a stop to the corrupt al
liance between business and politics."
FORAKER CASE JUSTIFIES ROOSEVELT.
Foraker's opposition, they say, was
originally to Roosevelt because of his
policies and was transferred to Taft be
cause Taft stood for the things that
Roosevelt stood for, and his nomina
tion was"tlie most emphatic rebuke pos
sible to such practice as have been ex
posed." This, they say, should rivet
the attention of the country to the fact
that "Taf'c stands as the extreme antis
type and opposite of these practices
and that Foraker's bitter opposition to
Tail's nomination is really a warranty
of Taft's sincerity."
Unwise Combination.
To the mind <>f Mrs. Abigail Jon
tings there was a sort of disloyalty in
admitting to any outsider that a native
of Wlllowby could be really eccentric.
As for anything beyond eccentricity,
Mrs. Jennings would never have ad
mitted it, even in tho case of Miss
Rachel Gregg, who was frankly called
crazy by the summer visitors.
"Now, Mrs. Jennings," said one of
the hoarders, "do you really mean that
you've never known Miss Gregg to do
anything that you'd call crazy?"
i\'o, I haven't," said Mrs. Jennings,
with a firm and unyielding expression
about her prominent chin.
"Why, what do you think of her
Bending that bag of eggs over to tho
Corners to Mrs. Cole right in the box
with her laundry work and never toll
tig the stage driver and letting him
throw the box right off?" inquired the
summer hoarder. "Mrs. Cole says
there's one shirt waist she'll never be
able to wear again."
"Well," said Mrs. Jennings calmly,
"I should say about that as I have
ft bout a number of little things Rachel
does and has done. She may lack in
wisdom and forethought now and
again. But, then, who doesn't, I'd like
to know?"— Youth's Companion.
Showing Our Monkey Blood.
The batsman, congratulated 011 his
■tome run, slapped himself proudly 011
the chest and began to boast of still

the past.
"Did you see that gesture, the strick

vard. "Whenever we make that ges
ture in our vanity we prove the Dar

"You know the gorilla. Kipling and

vado boats his breast with a sound like
the rolling of the muffled drums of
Memorial day.
"As big as a bull, as swift as a cat,
as powerful as an elephant, the gorilla
believes himself unconquerable, and in
the vain glory of that belief he inflates
his lungs and beats his swollen breast

WASHINGTON LETTER. 1
I From our Regular Correspondent.!
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21, 1908.
It is expected that the President will j
be at the White House by the time this
letter is printed. The majority of the
summer absentees has already return
ed. Postmaster General George Von
L. Meyer returned to his home in
Washington yesterday. He has spent
part of the summer outing, hunting '
and fishing in the North, at the family's !
summer home in Hamilt >n, Mass. It j
was there that Mrs. Meyer lout by j
burglarly fifteen thousand dollars'
worth of jewelry. Mrs. Meyer and I
her daughters, who spent the early
summer abroad, are not expected
home until next month. The Secre
tary of the Treasury and Mrs. Cortel
you who have been spending the sum
mer at Huntingdon, Long Island, are
expected home next week. They have
been living 011 a farm with all modern
improvements, it is said, and their
young family, of whom there are four,
have had a very enjoyable time. Mrs.
Robert McKee, the daughter of a form
er President, Benjamin Harrison, and
the mother of the once famous Baby
McKee, is expected to spend a portion
of the coming season in Washington.
She is now with old friends, the family
of Senator Elkins, at Elkins, West
Virginia.
There is universal sympathy in the
city for the sad accident which befell
Orville Wright and Lieutenant Sel
fridge, when they fell from the 75 foot
elevation in Wright's aeroplane. Dur
ing the past week, thousands of people
from the city and from other parts of
the country have flocked in auto
mobiles and in carriages to Fort Myer
where the wonderful experiments that
have filled the world with expectation
have been made. Great as has been j
the advance in recent months, result
ing in flying feats at which the world
wondered, it is now clear that the ex
perimental stage has not yet been pass
ed. A test at the hands of so compet
ent a flyer as Orville Wright who has
broken all records, was no doubt as
promising as human ingenuity could
make it, but human ingenuity cannot
prevent accident with wagon, automo
bile, or any machine, and when that
accident happened in midair, it is
necessarily more tragic and disastrous
than on terma lirma. Skeptics with
reference to the success of flying ma
chines are strengthened—and with rea
son—in their disbelief and the accident
at Port Myer has proven almost con
clusively that it will never be possible
to use airships for long voyages or for
the transportation of passengers. The
slightest accident will force the ma
chine to the ground and even it the
passengers escape accident, the ma
chine may be miles from a point where
it can be repaired. Mr. Thomas A.
Edison in a recent interview given in
Salt Lake City predicted that in five
years or less airships will be carrying
passengers across the ocean making
the trip in a day at the rate of two
hundred miles an hour. Mr. Edison
also predicts that the North Pole can
and will be reached in a forty hour trip
by an airship. But imagine an airship
or an aeroplane crossing the ocean
when some mishap occurs such as is
daily occuring with the motor car for
example. Either it would he thrown
into the deep, or, if it were able to
maintain itself in the air, it would not
be possible to move or to repair the
damage. The experiments will goon.
They have received too gretft an im
petus to be arrested, hut it is probable
that the youngest child to-day will not
live to see the airship, whether aero
plane or balloon, commercially suc
cessful.
