(Special to the Nugget)
Third term discussion occupies
much of the attention of Wash
ington. The first President of
the United States was outspoken
against so long a tenure. Gener
al Grant was willing but failed
at the convention. Mr. Roose
velt has not stated his views.
He may have those of General
Washington, in which event the
matter will be disposed of by a
letter from the White House or
a sentence in a speech. Mr.
• Roosevelt may be miinded like
Grant, but unlike Grant, he may
be nominated. He may fail of
the nomination, the troubled fac
tional waters being oiled through
a compromise, as was done re
specting the Grant situation by
giving the second place on the
ticket to Mr. Arthur, who was a
pronounced third term advocate.

doing loud talking. The other
side is being heard plainly, and
does not look for any compro
mise such as that represented by
the Garfield and Arthur ticket
of a:most sixty years ago. Mr.
Iek'.s says that there is no doubt
as to what the answer of the
people will be if Mr. Roosevelt
decides to run, and that if the
reactionaries in the party desire
to test their strength with the
New Deal, they may have op
portunity to do so. To the same
effect are the remarks of Mr.
Ilopkins, who adds that ninety
percent of the country’s workers
arc with the Administration.
There was a time when lotter
ies were considered a legitimate
means for raising government
funds, but the practice has gone
into the discard. It survived,
though sometimes in a softened
form, as an instrument for gett
ing money for charitable and ev
en religious purposes. The legal
ity of out and out lotteries for
the benefit of civic and similar
organizations will be passed up
on in season, in view of an argu
ment presented recently to the
Supreme Court of the United
States. Most persons have the
gambling instinct to some de
gree. Corn is planted, with no
certainty that it will sprout and
reproduce itself a thousand fold.
The auto driver whose tank is
almost empty will take the haz
ard of proceeding to the next
filling station, if gas is cheaper
there. Whether or not the wide
spread tendency to take a chance
is an argument for or against
lotteries, is something that care
fully trained moralists will have
to decide.
The government is getting af
ter wrong doers. Under that
head comes the man who states
that a rayon article is made of
“eelonese jersey”, whatever that
may be. Rayon stuff, called
satin, got another manufacturer
into trouble. Likewise subject
to the jacking-up process is a
publisher who put out what he
specified as a “modern” refer
ence book, when it was merely
a slightly revised tet of 1893. It
is not hard to get into a jam
nowadays by the thoughtless use
or deliberate misuse of terms
which cannot be said to have
been well chosen; but on the
other hand the public should be
protected. and very likely the
custom of oalling a spade a spade
ought to be commended to those
who have something to sell.
Considered day by day. the
President visited Socoriow Is
land for a little fishing and to
view the natural wonders of the
place, followed by an extended
long distance conference with
Washington. Then came a call at
a French possession about 700
miles off the coast of Mexico.
Next was a day of rest and a
chance to see some of the amuse
ments practiced by sailors ab
oard ship. Then more, sea, more
fishing and more work, rountine
and otherwise, and finally a sil
ence which may indicate that the
President tired of even so much
as being talked about. When a
Presidetn of any period or poli
tics takes a while off, he knows,
and the world should know,
that the day wild end and the
grind be resumed. Now is the
time for all good men to come,
not to the relief of their party,
but to the encouragement of the
wholesome business of getting
as much out of a vacation while
it lasts.
