WANT ANOTHER PANIC
Want another Roosevelt panic?
Of course you remember it if you
are old enough to vote. It was only
about four years ago, before Taft got
in, and started his policy or safe,
sane, deliberate enforcement of the
law, instead of government by jerks
which gave the nation the nerves.
It would go without saying that
Theodore Roosevelt has no chance of
success, although he is so eaten with
self-pride, with the conviction that he
is the only in ninety millions that
has wheels enough in his head to run
the national machinery, that ts pos.
sible he thinks the American people
are tired of Taft and good times, and
want Roosevelt panic, waiting around
chilly October nights to get their
money out of the banks.
Theodore Roosevelt seems t olike
panics. They're in his line, and if he
hasn't one handy he will take care
to scare it up. He was certainly suc
cessful in bringing on plenty of panic3
in 1907, from the effects of which the
country has just recovered, but he is
very much mistaken in thinking that
the American people want some more
of the same. If he is so affected that
he must have a St. Vitis dance, he
should invite the party known as
"Gabby George" and the other under,
writers of his campaign to Oyster
Bay, where they can have the dance
all to themselves, and not disturb
plain, ordinary folk who have' a living
to earn and savings banks accounts
they don't want to draw on.
The real peril in the Roosevelt
madness is the backing he is giving
to Woodrow Wilson and the Demo.
, cratic party in their campaign of re.
action, sectionalism and free trade.

When rock is used, the same
shall be the best hard, dark color

used, all mortar and dirt shall be
washed off before using again.
All forms shall be securely stak

Concrete :
Upon the foundation prepared as
heretofore specified will be laid a
bed of concrete three and one half
inches thick to be made as follows:
The cement and sand will be thor-1
oughly mixed dry and made into a
mortar with the least possible
amount of water; to this shall be i
added the broken stone or gravel I
thoroughly drenched .with water, j
and the whole shall then be thor
oughly mixed until the aggregate

concrete shall be deposited in the
forms within sixty minutes after
being mixed, and shall be trans
formed to the forms in wafer tight
carriers. The concrete shall be
evenly spread and tamped until
free mortar appears on the surface.
The base shall be laid in six foot
blocks formed either by using strips
across the forms or by placing the
blocks alternately, or by cutting
through to the subgrade with a tool
not over six inches long and one
quarter inch thick. The upper sur
face shall be made exactly parallel
with the surface of the completed
work. The mortar and the concrete
shall not be mixed in greater quan
tities than is required for immedi
ate use, and none remaining unused
