President of the United States celebrates his forty-seventh birth day and from all corners of the country congratulations art being showered on him, for no matter what his political vfews are or what steps ha has taken in the affiairs of state all are ready to ad mit that Roosevelt is a man of the people a popular man. a model head of a family, and a type of chivalrous gentleman that the comingienerationjwould do well copy While not attempting to enter into a bb- grapny or me "man of the moment a short account of his career at this junc ture would not be amiss. Mr. Roose velt was born in an ui.pretentous house which at present is numbered 23 East Twentieth St. and in the very room in which he first saw light the Roosevelt Home Club, which was organized a few years ago. holds its meetings. Tno club intends to preserve the house and main tain it as a national landmark, tho at present it is given over to business and a hideous bow window has painfully a'terea its appearance. Theodore Roosevelt the presidents's father, who is still remem bered in New York as a man of affairs. a philanthrophest and a gar.ial companion lilted most of his time at Oyster 'Bay. but he kept a house in the city and his- face was a familiar one about town. The President's line rema ned puia'y Dutch till the sixth generation marrying Dutch families dnly. James Roosevelt the President's great grandfather, gave his services without reward as Commis sary to the Continental Army during the entire war of Independence. Isaac Roos evelt a colls tor al ancestor, took a promi nent part on the Provincial Congress hiiiwi uiuniMU um ot tiaw lora. The family allied itself strongly with the patriot cause. Probably the m?st famous of the eighteenth Century Roosevelt was Nicholas J.; the inventor who was one of the first to make steam navigation by means of the vertical paddle wheel a success. A TOOT S AO AT HIE MM Editor Observer: In my various jaunts among the hills of every one of there northwestern territor ies and states since 1882, it remained for me to see the capping of the climax so far as the "legalized" saloon is con cerned. It was in Union county, Monday Oct. 22, 1906. The place is Minam where the stage line and the O. R. & N. exten sion both cross the confluence of the Minam and Wallowa rivers. Having walked down the Wallowa short cut I had some minutes to wait for the stage, as every traveler knows. Passing along the road in the front of one of the new saloons I heard the voice of a woman (perhaps I should say a female's vrice) inside the dive. There being no screensto the door, and it stand ing wide open, I listened while the voice, lowdly cursing, and continually calling for liquor and ordering treats for men, continued un abated. 1 looked in at the open door and there sat the femele at a gamb ling table, at a game of cards with a man; she was calling her plays sandwiching them with profanity and orders for more liquors for herself and companions. This is the thing the officers of that county have licensed (I supposed) and it is therefore under the "police protection" of the county. It is known that a prominent official used his influence to have the commission ers vote the dive into txistence. Any one who wants to know more may ask the undersigned. J. D. GlLLILAN DRY Wf.ll Rev.
