AS SEEN BY AN ENGLISHMAN.
By Sydney Brooks.
Sydney Brooks, a famous British Writer, gives in McClure's for July, a brilliant estimate of Theodore Roosevelt. "What Europe Thinks of Roosevelt." is the subject of the remarkable article, which, in part, is as follows: "Any nation would be glad to reckon Roosevelt among its assets if it could. At the bottom of the extraordinary enthusiasm of the welcome that has everywhere greeted him on the continent, is the consciousness that every country in Europe needs a Roosevelt of its own. if only we had someone like hi nil' is the bought behind the attentions that have been showered upon him. And the thought is echoed no"where more responsively than in England. People here feel that they would know what to do with Mr. Roosevelt. and I dare say .Ah'. Roosevelt feels that he would knew what to do with them, "We have to roll half a dozen Englishmen together to get Mr. Roose•velt's. full measure. Take Mr. F. C. Selous. the big srame hunter, add Dr. Pitchett. the semi-historian, add again the breeziness of Lord Charles Charles Beresford. who might be at least half a Roosevelt himself if he were not an Irishman, add again Lord Curzon's instinct for domination and bis superb
self-confidence, mingle with something more than a dash of Lord Kitchener's remorseless efficiency, throw in at least as much decisiveness, practicality, and belligerency as Mr. Chamberlain has ever commanded, and. finally. leaven the resultant with an ardor Gladstonian in its intensity—and you have a combination not, by any menas unlike the ex-President."
Mr. Brooks declares that Mr. Roosevelt is a man of ordinary endowments extraordinarilv developed. "So far from being a genius, asserts this carefill foreigner. "Mr. Roosevelt is a proof of how little genius has to do with an Infinite capacity for taking pains." Mr. Brooks once said in speaking of the former president, "a pork butcher can understand him." Mr. Roosevelt •. has affirmed ihe same thing. It is as
Brooks says ir. his magazine article. "Being fundamentally a healthily unoriginal and elementary man. direct in ii.ll his actions, in his character and inftincts, and particularly in his mental processes, the simplest and most.oh•yious explanation of him is all but invariably the right one. The ex-presi-dent himself holds firmly and sincerely to the notion that he is essentially a commonplace person."
Commonplace nr not, he has a way cf reaching the common heart, and in all-things he grips hand with the cornloon citizen in the name of the c-orc-jmon good.
EDITORIAL COMMENT
The Union, a labor paper published in Indianapolis, speaking of the "western idea'' so-called, declares that the "western idea means the re!egarion of bossism and business politics to the far rear, and the infusion of progressive principles into public life. Referring to the Democratic .bossism which has barred W. J. Bryan from tspeaking in the Indiana campaign, the Union declares, editorially: "If the Indiana Democracy has determined to serve any pan of the predatory interests and oppose legislation for the people. they might as well hang up the fiddle and the bow. "for the game is «ff, and no rain checks will be given out." The Union goes on to say that a party to gain support must deserve It. "To get provender from the public crib the donkey must do something else than bray and switch his worthless tail, and the elephant something more serious than throwing straw at tihe eager multitude.'
Speaking of A. J. Beveridge and John W. Kern, the labor paper says both are "excellent men," but. asserts tihat their election will depend on their political program and the work they Will perform for the people. "The people are tired." says the Union.^'of electing "good men' who will support unspeakably bad policies. They now demand that their chosen ones' public virtues shall equal their private pretensions."
There is serious and certain warning 1n all this for the Democrats of Indiana. who so basely betrayed the cause of labor in 1909, after pledging the Democratic party completely to labor's interests, in 1908.
The Ft. Wayne Journal-Gazette, Steve Fleming's organ, says, that "with Governor Marshall's candidacy for president as a ihnulus." Allen county ought lo to .".000 Democratic in 1910. It is evident Mr. Fleming expects the Marshall boom to do better in November than it did in the spring, when it failed to get even a favorable mention in the Democratic state convention resolutions.
The New Castle Courier declares that Governor Marshall's attack or, Theodore Roosevelt "stamps Marsha)] as a small-fry politician and demagogue." Why not just let it go at •'email-fry politician?"

Governor Marshall tells us that the church arrays a "certain class against itself" every time the church demands legislation.
P.y sitting tight and sucking its thumb, the church may win the smiling indulgence of Steve Fleming and the rest. But if tne church gets busy for reform or for law enforcement. then, according to Governor
Knowing as we do that men who are most active in the state's political life today, on the Democratic side, are scheming to destroy the existing temperance laws, we can readily see why Steve Fleming and his kind desire that church people shall stay out of politics. Church people united, will prevent the destroyers from getting in their work.

To the Editor: I see that Governor Marshall, Steve Fleming, Crawford Fairbanks, Tom Taggart. and a lot of other fellows, including the great army of law-break-ers. are agreed on the proposition that chnrchfolks ought 1o give all their time to prayer and inward-looking, and hymn-singing, and never take any sort of hand in public affairs.

Tom Taggart is not so discreef ir the role of political prophet as Job'' Kern appears to be these days. True to his habit, of long standing, Mr. Taggart is bestowing predictions of Pemoera tic victory with the same old lavis generosity.
Mr. Taggart does not like the growing confidence and enthusiasm in Republican ranks in Indiana. Apparently he is not pleased by the report that Col. Roosevelt and President Taft are coming to Indiana to speak this campaign. Evidently the French Lick boss of Democrats regards it as necessary to cheer up his faltering followers.
In order to meet a political emergency of a serious nature, he bobbed up a day or two ago and at Indianapolis gave out a tjpical Taggart statement in wtjiCh he said: "It's a cinch for Democracy. Senator Beveridge will soon be numbered with the 'has beens.' Jt is a cinch the Democrats will carry Indiana both for the state and legislative tickets. I figure that the com int. of Col. Roosevelt*to Indiana will do the Democrats more good than thirty Democratic speakers. I will be on hand to do what I can for Kern when the time comes."
Mr. Taggart did not go into details to show why Col. Roosevelt would boost the Taggart cause.
Steve Fleming, head of the state organization of brewers, who "happened in" coincidentally with Mr. Taggart. sought to show that Col. Roosevelt would not be able to influence the views of Indiana voters in a political way. Mr. Fleming refused to talk on the matter of the Democratic revolt against brewery domination. He did not try to account for the fact that many Democratic county conventions in repudiating the liquor plank he wraUtor Indiana Democrats.

TESTED AND PROVEN
There Is a Heap of Solace in Being Able to Depend Upon a WeilEarned Reputation.
For months Greenfield readers have seen the constant expression of praise for Dean's Kidney Pills, and read about the good work they have done in this locality. Not another remedy ever produced such convincing proof of merit.
John Kiger, 304 Swope Street, Greenfield, Ind., says: "My experience with Doan's Kidney Pills has been related in a testimonial I gave for publication three years ago, but it is always a pleasure for me to tell of the merits of this remedy for the benefit of other kindey sufferers. For years my back ached a great deal and it was difficult for me to attend to my work. Whenever I exerted myself or brought a strain on the muscles of my back, I suffered from sharp twinges and the trouble was generally worse if I caught cold. The pasages of the kidnnv secretions were irregnlar and caused no end of annoyance. Hearing about Doan's Kidney Pills, I got a box at Quigley's Drug Store and I soon found them to be just what I needed. They cured the backache and lameness and also corrected the kidney weakness. It required the contents of only six boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills to cure me, though my case was of long standing. A number of persons who have read my statement have questioned me about my experience .and al such times I have never failed to urge a trial of Doan's Kidney Pills."
