R t of the best things we hare seen nriative to the present strength of evelt is a communication from Watson of Coos Bay to tbe Oregonlan. it is worth reprinting tame we give it below: Mr. Roosevelt has done more for tha uplift of good ' citizenship, com- bonesty aud common decency any thousand men alive. That Dm baa made mistakes we do not deny, tt is human to err. There is only one fihas of men who don't make mistakes they are found In the cemetery. Siva people, people who do things, ail smke mistakes. Mr. Roosevelt does kings, therefore be Is sometimes lu seror, but he gets there, Eli. That la aai we like. We have the best gov aaament on earth by all odds, but Mere are some things that seem badly a need of fixing. We need some- m to look Into the matter. We want amebody to do something. When the noose lu afire we can't wait to philo sophize. We are obliged to get busy at once. It la better to make a stab mt it and do the wrong thing than do nothing. We want less of the "Judl- Arcade Theatre FATK'fi INTERCEPTIOH high class Olograph drama, bate their usual standard of nnoeUence, an eiaelleot story.

We don't claim ouf candidate tp be a star at pink' teas, nor that- be Is a "bully good fellow,'' (n the general acceptation of the term; but T. K. Is the boy that knocks down the per simmons. Things-are always doing lu the vicinity of that lad, from the jrise of the curtain to the last encore. He is always goin some, as long as we are busy on the job we are safe. As long as. we are earnestly try lag ' to get there, never mind about the ' roundabout way, the mishaps and the I folks, the let-well-enough-alone folks, The danger lies with the satisfied filka.tbe let-well-enough-alone folks, the folks with the "judicial tempera ment," who believe In never doing to day that which may be put off until tomorrow. They are the people to fear, and not those who are earnestly and sincerely , striving for better things. Insurgency Is not dead in fact it is very much alive. The doc tors were mistaken in their diagnosis. Tbe anti-vaccine didn't take; they bad tbe wrongs dope. It would seem tbe scientists didn't figure that the ballot of a hodcarrler occupies as much space in the ballot box as one of the Lord's annointed. Let us not worry about these poli tical rows. They are the finest things that have happened lately. In our anger we are telling things. We are opening wide tbe stinkpots. We now know who stole the jam and who struck Billy Patterson. We see our selves as others see us. In the end we won't be quite so handsome but we will know more. Wrongdoing Is a fungus that speedily withers when brought to light. By all means turn on the, calcium and let the band play on " If It is true that an American has been arrested in London for throw ing away money on the streets, will they please deport him? if T. K. has really only just got started, .the English language is ' go ing to fall him before he gets through. Chicago packers say that the Sher man anti-trust law is vague, but so are many of the varieties of canned goods foisted upon us under mrious Latin and manufactured names.
