Iiecnuse of Colonel Itooso velt'n connection with the magazine. polltlciaiiH here think the editorial reflects his views. The editorial says In part: "Those thinking It unsafe to elect a president for a third term should recall the fuct that objections to a third term were formulated against a third consecutive term. A man who leavos the prosldoncy and who Is re-elected, nfter four or eight yoars have elapsed and has not a body of office holders behind him, does not possess the power of pa tronage but stands on the same foot ing as any other private citizen. "In Colonel Roosevelt's specific cose It is Hometlines said .that, his Btatcmonu In 1904 and again In 1907 that he would not accept an other nomination would make his ac ceptance of the nomination this year Inconsistent. Whatever Colonel Iloosovolt said In 1904 and 1907 re ferred to a third consecutive term. "Mr. Roosevelt believes that the settled policy of the country makes a third competitive presidential term Impolitic if not Improper but the Outlook has u better appreciation of his intelligence to suppose he hnd In 1904, or has now, the slightest Idea of defining a third term excepting In the way It has just beon defined. "Tlio situation perhaps can be made clearer by the following home ly Illustratien: "When a man says at breakfast, 'No thank you, I won't tnko any inoro coffee' It does not mean that he won't take any more coffee tomor row, next week or next year."

LAFEAN MEASURE IS AGA!NJNHOUSE Congressman Sulzer, Pressed hy South and East, Reintroduces Ob noxious Apple Box Bill Killed Two Years Ago. Western horticulturists must pre pare to defend themselves from injury to their tipple industry us a result of the reiiitroduction of the Lafean ap ple box bill by Congressman Snlzer of New York. Until recently it was believed no attempt would be made to secure this legislation, but pres sure from eastern growers was brought to bear on tlio New York rep- resenlntive to introduce the bill. The measure has been referred to the interstate and foreign commerce committee this session instead of to the agricultural committee, in hopes it will be more favorably received by the first named body. The agricul tural committee would again refuse to report the bill, it is understood, but the majority of the interstate com mittee is believed to bo favorable to the Sulzer measure. Hearing will be had on the bill early in March, and unless western apple growers take concerted action it is believed strong influence of eastern nml southern people will be exerted to pass the measure.
