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.

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 tle was safe with that newspaper man Put a thief to watching a thief and the properly Is safe. Col. Jlnt Ham had his bottle with its pre Clous cor tents returned to hint safe ly, having adopted the only coursi perhaps to attain this desirable end. 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.

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.

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.

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.
