I he Estate, 19th, instant. Each War Muk*s a Piesident. The accession of Theodoi e Roosevelt to the presidency further verities the American ada<re that each wai makes a president. The Revolutionary war made Wash in?ton president: the war of IS 12 made .lackson: the Indian war made Harrison; the Mexican wut made Taylor: the war between the states made Grant, and the war with Spain made Roosevelt. The new president is, however, the only one who has received hi * reward indirectly, by promotion from the vice-presidency. For a republic founded on peaceful lines this country shows a surprisingly high estimate of military prowess. ?The State. A Man and His Wife Arrested for Counterfeiting.
