THE PRESIDENT'S SON IN A CAR
PET FACTORY.
On the Hr*'. day of this month
! Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., went to
! work In the big plant of the Hart
j ford Carpet Company at Thompson
villa, Conn. This was an Incident
that ereaied considerable surprise
and provok<d a lot of comment.
This young man Is the eldest, son
of President Roosevelt. He hss Just
attained hts majority, and also has
j Just completed hts education, which
Is kh Rood an Hie beet Institutions of
I learning In our country ran Impart.
Not only Is hls father the foremost
citizen and present ruler of this the
greatest country In the world, but
he Ik a wealthy man. President
Roosevelt, while not belonging to
the class of multi-millionaires, has
yet a competency so ample that hls,
children can freely choose their pre
ferred course In life, and bis family
Is so amply provided for as to be
as completely lifted strove the ordl
nary cares of the world as ihe family
of a Rockefeller or Carnegie.
That a young man so fortunately
situated should go to work In a fac
tory Is something rare Indeed. The
sons of moat rich men, at young
Roosevelts age, have no higher am j
hltlon than to sow wild oats, and mis
they do In the pursuit of worldly I
pleasures so Industriously that the'
harvests they reap are blasted lives. <
Harry Thaw Is a ralr "sample <>l
this class. Olhera, with an aim In J
life higher thim this, turn to the pro-j
fetsloos. Very rarely does It hap- ’
|i*n that one undertakes to learn H
trade, snd a trade at that whlrh re
quires the severest toll. This young j
Roosevelt has don*.
In the t*ll which he entered, work
begins at 7 o'clock In the morning, j
and with an Intermission of forty- j
five minutes for noon continues until j
F. 15 In the evening. Not only are i
the hours long, but the work Is wear-:
Ing as the young man probably dls
covered the ilrst .day, after having
sat In a stooped position all day I
picking wool. One day's experience
ol such work would have satisfied
most young men not compelled to I
stick to It, hilt voting Roosevelt
stick: l In It still He deliberately ,
chose to learn this business, to b"
come sit expert in all Its branches,
and with the same gilt whlrh dls
tlngulshes hls father he sticks to It
A splendid example this young
man Is setting the young men of the
country Too many look with disdain
upon honest labor, and In consequence
too many of them seek the proses
along This does tint apply to th" !
pampered sons of rich fathers, who
hsve a capacity for maklug money
Imt are totally tin fit to raise hoys,
hut lo young men generally. The'
pampered sons of rich hut foolish 1
fathers usually go to the devil A ■
the shortest possible route, but youth',
men generally, with more worthy
ambition, turn their harks upon In ]
dustrlal pursuits and enter a proses
slon This applies also lo the am i
bilious poor, and many a voting man
who could have become a most skill- j
fur mechanic luma tq a profession i
anil feeds hts pride hv passing
through life as a Jack leg lawyer doc 1
lor or preacher. It Is this tendency
which Is responsible for, or closely!
related to. the saute spirit that leads
to corruption In politics, to public |
and private grafting, and the get .
rich quirk spirt! w hich exercises such
a Ivaneful Influence in lowering Hu
meral slaius of the people.

That Col. Lewis then should have

j th* enforcement of the low and for

tain that mitigating circumstances
would welch i ven With so stern a

Right there Is where our esteemed
i onteinporary slips up In its esti

men. Newspaper men may be pro
verbially thirsty and the Spartanburg
members of the tribe, by reason of
their enforced state of dryn as, may
have :-n extra thirst But that bot

man Put a thief to watching a

Jlnt Ham had his bottle with its pre
Clous cor tents returned to hint safe

The Incident shows that he is a
born leader of men, because he is
able to Judge their qualities so
quickly ; and this accounts no doubt
In large measure for his phenomlnal
ftticroHU.

THE VISIONARY IN POLITICS.
Mr Hears!, through hls papers, Is
making every effort to gain votes lor
hls candidate for the presidency. A
| strong i (Tort was put forth In a heavy
! face leading editorial In a late Issue
of the New York Journal H essays
to "Compare Hlsgen to Ills Squab
tiling Opimnonts." and from this com
I,orison draws the deduction that ills
gen Is the man lor whom to vote.
Hays The Journal:
"The verbal bickerings and rock
| throwings of Mr. Roosevelt. Mr. Hrv
|an and Mr Taft arc as deplorable
as they are unseemly. * * * ’* hß

ihe worse than undignified bickerings
which now vex tjte campaign air.

ones. Mr. Hlsgen. for the tndepend

• • • In every regard he has ex
hibited. when compared wllh our gen
tlenien of careless manners, the dig
aided difference which subsists be
tween the man of reputable business
and a parcel of street criers.”
It Is unfortunately true that the
pending presidential campaign In the
very strenuous character it Ims as
sumed Is not pitched on a very high
plane Personalities are bandied
around, and many things are said by
1 the leaders of the two great parties
which tar on ucople of fastidious
tastes and which are not at all he

Hlsgen has not been guilty of any of
tlvese things and principally for the

THE AUGUSTA HERALD
That the socialist propaganda has
attained unusual proportions during
the present campaign has been
amply demonstrated by the spectacu
lar success of the Red Special,’
which has ended a run of nearly half
way across the continent with an
Invasion of New York. Here Eu
gene V. Debs, the presidential can
didate. gained an unusual popular
reception, speaking to audiences
numbering In all some 10,000 people,
llis tour has been distinguished by
a very lively interest in his person
ality and hls doctrines, and he may
well think, following excellent pre
cedent, that if the attendance at his
nestings brings forth fruitage In
votes, he will poll a much larger
/lumber than he did in hls former
campaign. We should not be at all
surprised If hls expectations were
fully realized. This is a year when
great many voters are casting
about for a party more nearly rep
resentative than any now extant of |
their moral, materia), and social as- i
plratioiiß, and these, particularly II j
out of work, are apt to turn to the
socialist propaganda as more promis
ing than any other. It will be well
to count on a considerable leakage
of votes to the Debs party.
Yet there Is no reason why any
body should take fright. The growth
of socialist sentiment In this coun
try has a certain significance, but
its Importance, we think, Is likely to
be distorted and exaggerated. We
are referring, of course, to the
grow th of that form of socialism (
which looks to a complete destruc-l
tion of the present Industrial sys- ■

he was envied by thousands, especi

ductlve and distributive methods,
and everybody certainly hopes for an
amelioration of many unhappy as
pects of the social order. So much
we may look for if history repeats
itself, if w-hat we call the process
of civilization keeps up. The so
cialist strength, therefore, is in its
appeal to this almost universal be
lief In the steady progress of man
kind toward better things. But
where the socialist propaganda seta
itaelf squarely against the fundamen
tals of human nature, where it seeks
to uproot apparently imperishable
foundations of social order, we are
confident it will not advance far in
the affections of the American peo
ple.
What we may reasonably prognos
tlcate with respect to the influence
of the socialist party In American
politic* is that the practicable por
tions of Its program will be absorb
ed gradually by one or th* other of
the old parties. No political or
ganization was more cordially detest
ed in its time by old party leaders
than the populists, but we find some
of its tenets in the political plat
forms of the present, and more in
the programs of radical republican
and democratic leaders. Yet the
parly itself has all but disappeared.
Similarly, It would not be at all as
tonishing if, a few years hence, some
political ideas now condemned by
the mere classification of them as
socialistic, should appear in presi
dential messages and start an acri
monious debate as to their author
ship. Who would have predicted a
dozen years ago that the republican
party would become the champion of
a postal savings bank system? And
who would be willing to assert that
a dozen years from now st no- repub
ll-nn statesman may pot undertake
