Theodore Roosevelt. This signed editorial Immediately followed the above, and is goner- 1 ally regarded as being a more ex- ended cxnosition of Mr. Roosevelt's Tvitws than is made in the signed ' statement. The editorial loads In part.: "The Democratic wave of success which began with the election of a Democratic Governor in Maine had 1 an even more striking illustration in the greatly reduced Republican ma.i rltles in such States as Rhode Island. Pennsylvania and Iowa man .u < the Democratic victories in New i' York. Ohio and Now Jersey.

Discovered at last by two men who had long sought for life, Dominick Mo rone, a shoemaker who went to Mlddletown, N. Y., from New York eevtral months ago to escape assas gination, was oiurdered Just as he left his homo one night last week. Leaving their victim dead on the pavement the men dashed to the railroad tracks and jumped on a freight train that was passing through on its way to Now York. Morone, 4 0 years old, came from Italy to the United States, 15 years ago and opened a cobbler's shop 4n Now York. A year or so ago he was called upon to make a contribution to the "Black hand" Society or accept death as the alternative. Morone was in no position to meet the demand. Ho lied from the city and sought obscurity In Chester, N. Y. There he remained a few months. KearJng, evidently, that he wasn't safo, he then went to Middletown and opened a shop, making his home in the rear of tho place. lie lived quietly, for the fear of death was on h i m. Morone mot what he feared early this week. Two men arrived in town, went to the Italian quarter and made inquiries for Moreno's address. When they learned it they walked to the house and stood nearby in the shadows, wait in?. After dinner the shoemaker left hi3 shop and walked down th ) street. Me had gone a block when, out of a group of pedestrians, one of the murders stepped out and called the shoemaker's name. Morone whirled around, a look of terror on his face. Immediately his two enemies drew revolvers and began shooting. Passers-by fled and Morone was lep. a clear target for the assassins. They emptied their revolvers into his body and he dropped dead. people believed that a substantial iu v\ n warn revision was promised uy tie Republican party; the Payne-Al Irich Mill was not, in fact, accepted is such a measure; the attempts ol he Administration to hold the hill up to admiration not only did 1101 onvince hut did irritate its critics. "The unhappy Ballinger-Pinchot ontroversy, the diplomatic sound R >ver the appointment of a Chinese Minister, the political revolt against Canonisin?these and other matters eft in the popular mind a feeling hat the Republican party was dealng weakly with grave public interests, and in a measure overshadowed he praise deserved for the actual onstructlve measures passed. "Moreover, In some ways the Democrats benefited by the stirring of lopular feeling for progressive legislation; i:i many cases progressive Democrats pushed aside conservatives of both parties; Wood row Wilson in New Jersey is as truly a progressive ns is Robert Bass in New Hampshire. "It must be remembered that the moral revolt against boss rule and egislative corruption in New York, or instance, was a Cbtal different hing from the insurgent and anti'ariff feeling in the West. National ly the chief result is that we shall have a Democratic House of Representatives with a majority of nearly >r <1 uite 6ft, as against a Republican majority of 4 3 in the present Congress; while th* Republican majority in the senate is reduced from 25 to 12. Thus for the first time 'n many vears we shall have a Republican president and senate ranged against * Democratic lower house, and either party may block legislation if it j wishes. That the Democrats will I next year introduce a general tariff j is likely, but if they are wise they will recomize the fact that the only I reasonable way of dealing with the ' luhject is that recommended by the !

Miss Habersham was the daughter of fl. G. Habersham, a wealthy broker of Baltimore, and police and detectives all over the country have been searching for her ever since she disappeared. The long search ruined the father's health, and the shock of the girl's abduction was too great for her mother, who died several months after \va rd. Tho dead woman was 25 years old. She said that she had been enticed away from home by an old gypsy woman, who belonged to a tribe that was staying near the Jlaber. liam home. She was then sold by this woman to her nephew for $1)00, and compelled by him to work hard and to endure more than the hardships of the ordinary gypsies. Aci ordiug to the story tohi by the young woman shortly before her death, some strange influence held her with the gypsies, and although she made several attempts io escape, all wero fruitless. It was two years before she even had a chance lo write to her father, and then the tribe heard of her doing so and quietly moved away before the police authorities could reach her. About five weeks ago the young woman was carried to a rooming house in Cincinnati by a gypsy who asked that the woman be allowed to stay there until the child was born. She remained there until she became so low that she was taken to a hospital. While dying, with Imr baby in her arms, the mother told the pitiable tale of her abduction and hardships. MAN Y IjJTTLM OAKS SAVK1). Antitoxin Cures Thousands of Children of Dipthci'in. Better treatment and control of diphtheria have prevented 2G,G7e> deaths in Chicago in 14 years. Antitoxin is given the credit, according o a bulletin issued by the Chicago Board of Health. I to to re antitoxin came into use the diptherla death rate averaged 13d for each 100,000 inhabitants. 'inches dropped to 8 6. Antitoxin \v:;i cure practica'ly all races of diptherla if it be given in time, in proper doses and it will also prevent the develop nient of the disease in those who havo been exposed. Deaths from diptherla are due chiefly to Ignorance, carelessness or neglect, the parents of the victims usually being the guilty parties. Failure to pay heed to the of. -repeated warning regarding the danger of neglecting "simple sore throats," failure to call the doctor in the earliest stu?es of the disease and neglect to secure immediate treatment of cases has cost many lives.
