Thursday, March 14 1912 Upon occasion, Theodore Roose velt empatically said (and he is notorious for saying things with emphasis), "On the 4th of March, next, I shall have served three and a half years, and these three and a half years constitute my first term. The wise custom which limits the President to two terms regards the substance and not the form, and under no cir cumstances will I be a candidate or accept another nomination. " There is no quibble about this statement. He says that he will not accept another nomination. Theodore Roosevelt on many occa sions promised his fellow citizens that he would not again be a can didate. The question on every one's lips is, what made him change his mind, why did he do it? Can not the answer be found in his character? Of a strong and impetuous nature, with un bounded confidence in himself and Viis dpstinv nf an fmnp.rious disposition, is his not just he character that our forefathers 'had in mind when thev wished t.n nrnr.er.t the country against the possibility of a third term? If the love for office and the passion for power made Roosevelt break his solemn pledge, what guaran tee have the people of this coun try that he would not do the same thing over again? If he wp.rfl to announce tomorrow that he would not be a candidate for a fourth term, would anyone be lieve him? Then, too how about his break ing faith with the man of whom he said, in speaking of President Taft, "I do not believe there can be found in the whole country a man so well fitted to be presi dent." Roosevelt has many very ad mirable qualties, but the easy way he has of going back on his friends on the plea of standing by the people, should relegate him to the rank and file of the "hasbeens." v V St A petition to President Taft to set aside the sentence imposed upon Attorney H. H. Hendrick, of Fossil, by the U. S. Circuit Court, for subornation of perjury, has been received by Heppner parties. Mr. Hendricks will have to serve a term of 13 months on McNeil's Island unless the Presi dent interfers. When it is un derstood that his conviction was secured upon the false testimony of Bill Hawk, our citizens should ' not hesitate to sign a petition for pardon. Mr. Hendricks has re- j ceived sufficient punishment for a crime that it is very evident he did not commit. His petition was sicrnpd hv pvprv citizen of his 'home town. William J. Bryan has just com pleted a visit to the Northwest, and now there is much talk that he may possibly be the nominee of the democrats again for presi dent. This is not an impossible thing, for there is much strife and dissention in that party over prospective candidates and there is no denying the fact that Bryan is the most popular man in the party to-day. Of course Mr. Bryan is not an avowed candidate at this time but like our own Teddy, he may be induced to heed the demands of "the peepul" at the opportune time. Obituary. Di. J. E. Adkiua was born near Kirksviile, Mn. , October 24th, 1845. and died at his home in Hillsboro. Oregon, Feb. 22, 1912, at the age of 66 years, 3 months and 28 days. With his parents he ornssed the plains to Oregon in 1865, settling in Lane oouuty near Eugene, and in Oc tober, I868,came to Eastern Orrgon, settlina on Rhea creek to the south west of Heponer.

To this anion were born six children, two of whom died in infancy, and four are now living; one daughter, Mrs. Mabel Wadsworth, of Portland, and three sous, William, Edward and Arthur, of Hillsboro. His wife died 18 years ago, and a few years later he was married to Mrs. Letitia Stewart, of Hillsboro, who died some three years later.
