view the country and the Republican
party are Indebted for the publication
of this Interesting document which car
ries a message from him “ who, being
dead, yet speaketh." In the leading
article o f the current number o f the
North American Review Colonel Har
vey sets forth the vital Import o f this
last penciled notaUon o f Mr. Roose
v e lt He says:
“ Mr. Roosevelt died *he acknowl
edged leader o f the great party Into
which he was born. His last written
words, penciled by his own hand a few
hoars before his death and addressed
In the form o f a memorandum for the
brilliant young man for whose selec
tion aa Chairman o f the National or
ganization he was largely responsible,
were these, as reproduced above In
facsim ile:
“ ‘Hays
see him; he must go to Washington
fo r 10 days; see Senate and House;
prevent split on domestic policies.’
“ Here Is evidenced as clearly as If the
few words filled a volume Mr. Roose
velt’s realization o f both his responsi
bility and bis obligation. The simple
memorandum marked the Inauguration
o f a definite party policy, to be carried
through to a no less definite conclusion.
It was more than a passing thought or
a mere suggestion. It was a Message,
signifying the need o f Immediate and
unremitting vigilance In achieving
complete unity o f action In resolving
domestic problems before attacking
those o f wider range soon to be thrust
upon the country— a true soldier’s call
first to close the ranks.
“ Nothing could be more characteris
tic or more clearly Illustrative o f the
breadth o f vision, the foresight, the
directness In method and the painstak
ing attention o f the man. Nothing,
too, probably could have served bis
purpose better than that these words
should have been bis last. Difficult as
It Is to reconcile oneself to the decree
o f Divine Providence that the re
moval o f that great patriot at this cru
cial moment was not untimely, we can
not but realize, as he would have been
the first to acknowledge, that the last
vestige o f animosities which might
have continued to Impair hts highest
aspirations was burled with him, and
thereby the perfect union which he so
ardently desired against all tilings un-
American wag attained.
“ Thus we find the Republican party
resuming full legislative authority
thoroughly united and Invigorated by
the peculiar confidence which so often
carried It to victory In former years."
ROOSEVELT’S DEPARTING
WORDS TO HIS COUNTRYMEN
Col. Rooeevelt died about 4 o’clock
on the morning o f January 6. The
previous evening a t,a great patriotic
rally In the New Tork Hippodrome a
message was read from him, written
especially for the occasion. In It waa
this striking sentence:
“ W e have room for hut one flag, the
American flag, and this excludes the
red flag, which symbolizes all wars
against liberty and civilization Just as
much as It exclude« any foreign flag
o f a nation to which we are hostile,
• • • and we have room for but one
aoul loyalty, and that la loyalty to the
A m e ric an people.”

RULES FOR WRITERS.
When the situation clamors for a par
donable lie,
Please begin your observation with “ As
no one will deny.’ ’
With a modest little, bashful little e f
fort to deceive,
Kindly use the introduction, “ We have
reasons to believe.”
When the information’s doubtful, be no
whit dismayed thereat,
Finding refuge in the sentence, “ 'T il
an open secret that— ”
You may search th« very marrow o f
o f your controversial foes
With that phrase of cold disparagement,
“ As every schoolboy knows.”
And a fraud will seem as pious as a
missionary tract
With the prefatory label, “ It ia an es
tablished fa ct.”
So, by paying close attention to a few
such rules as these
You will speedily be able to prevari
cate with ease.
