not worth a county In Mnlne That useless

become a pHrt of one of the great states
of the American union.
At Illackfoot Governor Roosevelt made a
speech In tho court house square In which
he said:
Some seventeen or eighteen venrs ago I

where It was middling rough and where u
man would occasionally escape a licking if
he accepted a kicking, lie imild get peace

"If 1 am in error about the figures you
an look them up easily enough. Hut sub-
statrtlally what I have told you Is the fact
We havo seen In four years what has been
the Increase In wage earnings heie. All
I nsk Is that In your effort to cut down tho
trusts you do not also cui down the wage-
worker. You should not vote so as to brlns
ruin upon the wage-workers wife and ch'l-
Iron, for when hard times come, when dis
aster and panic are abroad In the lnnd and
times are hard. It may be hnrd for the
men, but It is harder still for the women
and children; It Is harder for those do
pendent upon him. The man of tho trust
will be hurt n great deal less than you by
any great commercial disaster. The spec
ulator can do more to protect himself than
you can. though It may hurt him. He mav
be badly off. but he will not be ns bndly
off as the others. We will Hnd otlt how to
get at the trusts. It Is not easy to point
nut how It can bo done, but It Is very easy
to point out some way In which It cannot
be done. The worst of these wnys Is to go
Into hysterics and it Is bad for the person
indulging In them. Sometimes we have leg
islation that verges on the hystericnl. Just
think of the amendments lo the anti-trust
laws that have been parsed during the lart
six or eight years nnd think how little
most of them amount to. Compare the ac
complishment with the promises on the
part of the people who promised the most.
Mr. Hrynn said four years ago again and
again that unless you elected hltn you would
have hnrder times than ever. Now I ask
what has been your experience? I ask you
if wool did not sell nt about & cents tlve or
six years ago Hnd whether It does not sell
for about double that now? You may re
mombnr the atory of the farmer who voted
fcr free wool eight yenrs ago. who said he
had come within cents of getting It. Com
pare tho prlccn you got four years ngo with
those you get now, compare the earnings of
the wage-workers now with what wo got
then and see what It is for your Interest
to do now.
Speeches nt Other I'nliils,
During the day stops were made at Rex-
burg. St. Anthony. Idaho Falls and Illack

ernor Roosevelt nnd others.
At Rexburg Ooveruor Roosevelt was In

missionary work of tho Mormon church In
eleven states of tho south. Most of the
people of this phico belong to tho Mormon

said:
Imperialism vou hear talked of What

I have yet met. Expansion, yes; playing
the part of a great ti'itlon. Why am 1
speaking to yo I ? Ileenuso you and your
foiefathers expanded Into this country;
because you moved here In your whlte-
topned wagons nnd came across tlm mains

I : x. pa h In n U Amcrlen' Den tiny.
Expansion has been tlm law of our na
tional growth. It Is a great thing to hnve
material prosperity. It Is a great th.ng
to be nblo to establish rnllroad, factory and
farm. A greuter thine Is to bo able to
point to men of the nation who did the
deeds of the nation. Whit is that we look
hack to with the greatest pride? It Is the
mighty deeds done by men of Atnerlcnn
name. It Is the fact that tho wilderness
hero has been conquered by you men of
tlm west. It Is the way our people have
moved forward and suffered death, en
during risks und hardships because they
wcro the mighty men of the people who
tmve Inherited the enrth. To each irenera-
tloti Is allotted Its tak. No generation Is
without Its duly to perrorm and ir tney
Mined nnd turn their hacks on thulr tnsks
wlint nlin.il wo sav of them?
Now, Is the giant of the west fnllen If
those who have conquered the frontier
sit down Idlv with folded hands now nnd
say "Our fathers worked, we rest; our
fathers tolled, endured and dared und we
stny at home to avoid trouble: our fathers
conquered the west, tint we nro a feeble
folk nnd we cannot hold the Philippines "
Aro wo to sit down and do that? Hase 1
tho counsel nil base will be our people If
thev tnke that coinsel. We must an on

At St. Anthony tho governor was driven
to tho opera house, where he said In part:
A creat nation must do Its creat work
When It stops doing Its work It Is because
It has stopped doing things that make It n
great nation. We have got to stand In tlm
forefront of the nntlons of the enrth at all
times. You have come no far across the
continent that you look toward the west;
that you look toward Paget Sound and the
mouth of the Columbia and where the
Golden Onto looks through the long heav
ing waters ncross tlm greatest of all
oceans. There across the great ocean lies
tho chance for us to double, treble and
quadruple our wealth and our power nnd
our nnturnl renown. We have taken Ha
waii, we have taken the Philippines. It Is

Thern is a 14-year-old boy living In
Omaha who bids fair to become n second
Thomas A. Edison. His name Is Reuben
Orosjean and his homo Is at .1811 Drown
street. For several years he has been
devoting himself to the study of electricity,
lnsteid of reading Robinson Unison and the
story papers which hold so much charm
for most hoys of his age; he has spetH
his tlmo In perusing tho Scientific Amer
ican and books of incchunlcnl and electri
cal cnglneerlug.
rondnrous books on mechanics which are
seldom UK'd by tho patrons of the Omaha
Public Library have been borrowed hy this
young boy. Miss Tobltt and her assistants
ha,v often wondered what the little fellow
could bo doing with treatises that few
men can comprehend. Tho hoy Insisted
that he withdrew tho books for his own
use nnd a fc.w dnyu ago he brought the
librarian material evidence of the knowl
edge he has gained from his scientific read
ing. Ho marched proudly Into Miss Tobitt's
office and placed two small motora upon
her desk, explaining that he hud con
structed them according to directions he
had found In books drawn from the library
Ono of tho motors is ot rather crude design
nnd was mndo nearly a year ago. The
other Is a model motor and Is made with
skill equal to that of electricians many
years tho senior of Reuben Grosjenn.
Tho boy showed his latest piece of work
to tho managers of a local electrical supply
houso and was told that It Is worth SI" and
Is the equal of similar machines which are
produced by experienced workmen. A
position was offered young Grosjenn by an
Omaha factory which produces electrical
machinery, but ho has decided lo continue
his school work and obtain a broador ed
ucation before devoting his time exclu
sively to tho study of electricity.

The audience which assembled at the pa-

the lumberman, ami then (he captain again represented
ifi in (his (ale is as dislinctive a character as David riarum.
His philosophy of life, his directness of method in his
yfi work, his courtship of a lake-town belle, his plain man- f
) net and his blunt speech are as crisp and delightful as ffV
(j) the breeze which blows over the water he sails. "HUNCH f
(Jjf JIADHAU" is a story that restores eonlidence in plain $
human nature of the under world. He is a hero who is t
j worth while. How hi' brought his little sehoomer (f
j through the storm in order that his friend could marry (f
ft the girl thai Hunch himself loved is as heroic as any- (fl
il'i thing one may rend. How he courted and loved and H
