"Wo weie not strangeis." writes Mr.

Theodore lloosevelt leads, as wo all
of us found out. The law bleaker found
it out who piedtctud scornfully that ho
would 'knuckle down tn politics the
way they all did' and lived to lespoct
him, thouRh ho swotc at him, as the
niio of them all who was sli linger than

hastened to Police Ilendqimitois with
anxious entreaties to 'use discretion'
In the enforcement of unpopular laws
found it nut and wont away with a
new and In pathless notion welling up In
him of an official's svvniit duty.
lloosevelt had tho true philosopher's
stone that tuins dioss to gold, in his
nwn sturdy faith In his l'cllnwmau.
Men became good because ho thought
them so. I5y which I nm not to bo un
derstood ns moaning that ho just voted
them Rood tho imllto fnr Instance
and sat by waiting tn see the wings

I had nt last found one who was will
ing to got up when other people slept,
Including too often the police, and
soo what tho town looked like then.
"I never saw Theodore lloosevelt to
better ndvantnge than when ho enn
fiontec! the labor men at their moet
InR place, (iaiondon Hall Tho police
were all tho time h.uiiig trouble with
the strikers and their pickets. lloose
velt saw that It was because neither
party uudei stood fully the pnMtlnn nt
the other, nnd with his usual dlicct
ness sent word tn the labor niganlza
tlon that ho would like to talk It over
with them. It developed almost Imme
diately that tho labor men hml taken
n VMong measure of the man They
met him as a politician plamg for
points and hinted nt tumble unless
their demands were mot. Mr. lloose
velt broke theni off short:
"TientlPmen!' ho sold, wllh that
snap of tho jaws that alwa.vs made

that tho woist Injury any one nf you

himself, riiilerstiind distinctly that

keep It. Now wo can piocced.'
"1 was never so proud ami pleased
as when they applauded him to thn
echo. He lecldeiied with plensuio, for
he saw that the best In them had como
out on top as ho expected It would.
"lloosevelt struck no blow below
tho holt. In the governors chair after
waicl he gave the politicians whom he
fought and who fought him, tho same
tonus. They tried their best to upset
him, for they had nothing tn expect
tiom him Hut they knew and nwned
that he fniiRht fair. Their backs weie
