EDITORIAL PAGE
The shooting of Theodore Roose
velt brings again into prominence
the wonderful nerve of *hls remark
able man What other man do we
know who would have continued his
way to me-'t an audience within
fifteen minutes after a would-be
murderer had sent a 32-caliber bul
let three inches into his body, not
knowing but the next hour would be
his last
This nation loves men of nerve
and that is the reason that Theo
dore Roosevelt has always main
tained such a hold upon the regard
of the Xmerican people, lie Is ab
solutely fearless, mentally and phvsl
rally Mih action in making light
of the wound, shows how forget ful
he is of himself In the hour of dan
ger. yet let an attack of that kind
be made u;>on anyone else and he
* oulo have moved the very heavens
to surround the sufferer with the
londerest care
"The bravest are the tcndercst
The loving are the daring."
Supposing the melancholy days
are hetv, ? hut do wo rare?
Don't you remember, long ago
when >ou were kt>K how you liked
to net out in the rain and let the
big drops |>elter on you? The rains
have not changed, but you. From
your heart >011 have banished th?
innocence of youth atul when in
nocence ?-?ut it took joy with it.
There is no external thing necessary
to happiness. A few years ago many
people thought they were unhappy
unless they had a bicycle, today
those same people think they are
1. 1; nappy unless they have an auto
mobile, tomorrow it will he some
ili'pg else.
"I lie mel inchoiy days are m*!an
m>'\ only to the morbid. A per
fectly healthy mind is not influenc
ed to sorrow over the eccentricities
of the weather, or anything else out
side the realms of mentality
So. let er rain.
The fir* of the "Get Roosevelt"
committee of the Senate has been
centered upon the campaign of
IS?<M Tha? has been necessary
The colonel ran for President th?n
and in no other year before 1912.
But I S???4 happens to have been
the year when the Republican na
tional campaign really needed no
large contributions Much money
was used for legitimate expense*,
but very little was actually requir
ed Roosevelt might have been
elected without money. He could
not have been beaten if no organis
ed campaign had been conducted la
his behalf
The Republican managers did not
know, in 1S>04, how ea?v their
party's triumph was going to be
The candidate himself did not know
The extent of the Roosevelt victory
was not foreseen by political ex
perts It was not expected that the
Republican ticket would have the
largest majority ever given in a
Presidential election
Rut as it turned out, there was
really no need of even the most or
dinary campaign work. The lack
of it conld not have made any ma
terial difference in Ohio, for la
stance. when* the Roosevelt plural
ity was 2S5.421, or in Illinois, where
it rose to 305.039 What need was
there of money in New Jersey, which
gave Roosevelt $9,598 plurality, or
In New York, where the Roosevelt
margin was 175,552?
In states like Michigan, Minneso
ta. Kansas, Iowa, California, Idaho,
Maine, Nebraska, North Dakota,
Oregon, South Dakota, Vermont.
Washington, Wisconsin and Wyom
ing the Republican plurality was
greater than the entire Democratic
vote That was true In Pennsylvan
ia, also, where the Roosevelt margin
rose to the unprecedented total of
505,519.
In that record year the Republi
can ticket did not need the electoral
vote of any state which was car
ried by a narrow margin It would
have been easy to elect Theodore
Roosevelt by the votes of only the
states in which his victory was of
such tremendous proportions that
it could not have been affected ma
terially by campaign funds, large or
small.
It is just as well to keep these
facts in mind while the "Get Roose
velt" committee is at work, and
thereafter until election day They
will offset a lot of specious argu
argument and reckless slander, too

Host on Traveller: The effects of
a warm bath are nearly the exact
reverse of those brought about by
the cold bath. The surface vessel*
are relaxed by the contact of the
warm water and an Immediate flow
of blood to the surface results.
From the point of view of clean
liness, frequent bathing of the
whole body la absolutely necessary
There Is nothing which can take its
place, though change of undercloth
ing is almost equally important. By
washing and scrubbing alone can
the skin be freed from the waste ma
ter which is always exuding from
the glands, and from the scales of
dead skin which are constantly be
ing cast off. If these are allowed
to accumulate and remain on the
skin every kind of disease germ may
be harbored
Washing and friction have also
another use in exciting the glands
to free action and enabling them
to get rid of clogging particles of
dust and dirt. Even a man who has
a cold bath dally should have a
warm one once a week.
