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. He was married
in Heppner to Miss Martha Sperry,
daughter of the lata Rev. Carpus
Sperry, on Jul v tl, 1880. 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.
Dr. Adkins was a pioneer dentist
of Hillsboro, having moved there 27
years ago and practiced his profession
in that oity np to the time of his
death. He was a member of the
Baptist chuioh and a Mason in good
standing for many years. He was
well known, not only in the section
of the state where he resided so long,
but in Eastern Oregon as well, espe
cially in Morrow county, where he
resided for so many years before go
ii:g to the Willamette Valley, and he
frequently made professional visits to
Heppner and lone, enjoying a good
practice here.
His funeral was hell at the First
Baptist chuich in Hillsboro on Sun
day, Feb. 25, the Masons taking
charge of the services at the grave.
To The Hibernians.
E. H. Deery, state president of the
Ancient Order of Hibernians, and
John Keeny will arrive in the city
Saturday night from Portland. The
gentlemen are comma to initiate new
membres into the Heppner council of
the A. O. H. Ceremonies will take
place at 3 oclock Sunday afternoon in
the Hibernian hall. As there will be
an unusually large number of men in
town from the surrounding country it
is to be hoped that they will turn out
in goodlv numbers to join the A. O.
H. and greet State President Deery
and delegate Keeny. Both Mr. Deery
and Mr Keenv will take part in the
St Patrick's eve entertainment. Mr.
Deery is a noted speaker and Mr.
Keeny will certainly please his au
dience by some of his famous numbrs.
