Who would have thought one year ago that Theodore Roosevelt, as President and as man, would see this day free trom Democratic | criticism, free from arraignment by any respectable political agency | and free from the necessity of making a defense of anything that ho haa done or left undone? If anybody ever bluffed the American! people to a standstill he is entitled to that distinction, How has he done it? Not by deeds, but by words. Not by reason and argument, but by assertion and denunciation. Not by sincer- ity, jand’ truth, but by caprice, exaggeration and recklessness. Not} by single-mindedness and patriotism, but by impudence, arrogance and shrieking hypocrisy. He had great and admitted wrongs to contend with. He merely blustered and threatened. He had powerful criminals to punish. He ignored most of them, and by his violent methods made the administration of justice in the case of others almost a nullity. He inveighed mightily against malefactors and undesirable citizens. He nevertheless entertained some of them in the White House. He demanded law and more law for the punishment of wealthy offenders. He then suspended law in the interest of the Steel Trust. He preached peace and good-will. He practised big- stickism and extravagance in war expenditure. Boasting of wight- eousness in himself and commending to others obedience to law, he used his great power to elevate favorites to high rank, to punish and pursue opponents with mean‘revenges, to deny to some men the protection of the law and to advance the idea that the executive and judicial departments might properly override Congress, Con- stitution and people. Scolding his countrymen on matters of morals, deportment and taste, he has given them an exhibition during this campaign of ill-behavior never before witnessed in the Presidential office. This is the record. These are the falae standards that he has established. This is the evil example that he has set for the young. These are the brutal assumptions that he has managed to carry sway unchallenged by any authoritative political or popular protest. It is a remarkable showing of undisciplined fury in one man and of meek submission in millions of men equally free. Personally he is to be congratulated upon his immunity. Ool- lectively the people are to be commiserated because no Democratic champion has appeared in their behalf to enter so much as a com- plaint. bathe blo 2 ‘ —_—_—-+ NO RANK, NO MONEY. In the many difficulties presented by the Abruzzi love match it was inevitablg that the suggestion of a morganatic marriage should come from Europe and it has duly made its appearance. Morganatic marriages are legitimate, but they carry an inference of Mrs. Jarr Explains That if Voters Are Very Careful To-Day inferiority which cannot fail to be hateful to self-respecting Ameri- cans.

ILLIF BURKE, the newest, youngest and one of the U4 B most successful of Charles Frohman’s stars, wae & born !n Washington, D. C., Aug. 7, 188, being the daughter of theatrical parents, the late William EB. and ( Blanche Burke. (Her father was once conspicuous tn the variety theatres as a member of the team known as Burke | and Andrews, a bucking donkey assisting in their act.) Miss Burke was christened Ethelbertha, but !t was not long before she was given the diminutive nickname of hee paternal parent and it has clung to her ever since. She was taken abroad by her parents when a youngster and received her early schogiing in France. Later, at the age of twelve, she settled down in London to study vocal cule ture, to which she devoted nearly) four years. Having at | the same time become a fluent iingulst, Burke made | her stage debut early in 192 as a music hall singer in Vienna, later touring | through Hungary, Russia, Germany and France.
