What the People Like In Kooaerelt. Privilege has had some fairlv hard raps of late, and the American people have a pretty clear Idea that Mr. Roosevelt mil give it a few more before he lava down his office. Both those who buy what they should not have and those who bulldoze are being taught their place in a democracy where each is as good as his fellow man, bnt no better The gentry in the Government Printing Office who had expected to turn the public service into a “closed shop,’’ and admit and reject whom fAcy chose, were brought up with a round turn in the Miller case. The people liked that tremendously. The greatest magnates in the land, aided by the shrewdest lawyers, organized s huge corporation in violation of lair. The Supreme Court, (he instance of the Administration, ordert'd it to dissolve. The people likod that tremendously too There is a conviction throughout the country that the interests of the plain people, who ask nothing of the Government but ample protection in their Tight to earn an honest living in thrir own way, are looked after by Mr. Roosevelt, and that he does not forget them when under pressure from the political and personal representatives of privilege-hunters of all kinds Diflerent as Mr. Roosevelt is in ho many ways from Lincoln and from McKinley, he is like those two grest men in bis intuitive insight into the mind of the plain people. Mr. Roosevelt’s scholarship has not blunted liis human sympathy, and be has no subtlety of mind behind which to bide his natural simplicity atad directness.From "Theodore Roosevelt as a Pres dential Candidate,” by a Delegate to the National Republican Convention, in the Amtrumn Monthly Btvittr qj Review* for July.
That Special Wire to
Mr. Cleveland is having a private wire 16 miles long ran into his summer home at Sandwich. A reasonable ex planation for the special wire to Sandwicbmay be found in the conjecture that the purpose of it is to arm Mr. Cleveland against the meditated assault of the harmoniooe and confident Democracy, beaded by William Bryan. Mr. AevcUnd thinks be has some reasons to fear snch an attack in foece upon him, to compel him to make a fourth sacrifice for bis party, his country and the members of the old bond syndicate, that preparation for bis defense is warranted. In all probability the special wire will be need by him to direct his trusted lieutenants atSt.Loui* how to prevent his nomina'ios, and In

July 5.-Yale bos won tbe annual varsity eight oared bq*t race from Harvard on the Thames and crowned a year that has been replete with brilliant athletic achievement*. 8be proved, as she has done many times before, her superiority In everything that goes to moke a perfect crew—skill with tbe sweeps. mans hip and physical endurance.

No regatta ever 1-eld on the Thame* coarse was more worth seeing despite tbe sweeping triumphs of Yale, and none proved snch a cruel disappointment to spectators through tbe bungling manner in which tbe event* were managed. In tLe varsity eights both Yale and Harvard had phenomenally fast and powerful crews, and. while no record was broken or even threatened, tbe straggle was. as anticipated, that of young giants. In tbe four oared race tbe defeat of Yale was due to tbe breaking of a lock on tbe outrlggre of Fish’s oar. Harvard’s hollow victory accordingly was brought Into greater contrast through tbe superb work of her rival.
