The test rules to form a young
man are, to talk little, to hear
much, to reflect alone upon what
has passed In company, to dis
trust one's own opinion and
value others that deserve it.
Sir William Temple.
ROOSEVELT'S PERIL.
President Roosevelt, so far, has
proved the wisdom of his adventur
ous moves. His mistakes are few.
in comparison with his many hold
acts. His Impetuous rushes into un
trodden diplomatic fields have thus
far ended happily.
He asked Jlooker T Washington to
dine in the White House, and yet re
tained the firm support of Southern
republicans.
He dared to njmove Southern fed
eral office-holders, in the face of the
Tins and machines, and won their
respect by his honesty.
He has ordered a Mississippi post
office closed because the proud
whites, democrats and republicans.
disliked to ask a negro woman fo
their mail, and worried her with fool
isb threats until she resigned.
Can Mr. Roosevelt force the South
to bend to the negro? Can he ride
Tough shod over all the social sent!
roent that has rooted iniperishably
Into Southern life, or will he fall
in this venture?
He may gain the negro vote, but
he will certainly not hold the white
vote by this policy. The people o
that section -may be reasoned with
but they cannot be forced.
as long as taere are white men

they remain in authority. They may
be taught by the gradual process of
fraternity to love all human beings.
but they will never learn to serve a
negro master.

Governor-elect Chamberlain is
quoted as saying when, the matter of
nn inaugural ball was mentioned to
iim:
"While I appreciate the good will
of those persons who would honor me
In this manner. I do not care for a
ball. I. prefer, after my Inauguration,
to go at once into the executive, of
fice and enter upon my duties. It Is
my wish that all ceremonies be as
simple as possible. No red tape or
fringe on them, if you please. No, I
don't wish to go to a ball. I wish to
go to work."
That's the kind of governor that the
people of Oregon want. An executive
that comprehends the responsibilities
of his office and Is not too lazy to get
down to work. Pyrotechnics are alt
right In their place, but Oregon's governor-elect
wants no ostentatious dis
play in his. He is a plain man of the
people. Baker Democrat.
