GOV. ROOSEVELTS' LETTER.

Gov. Roosevelt's letter of accept
ance of the vice presidential nomina-
tion has been made public, and like
its author is strong, strenuous pre-
paign. Gov. Roosevelt is a man who
does not deal in phrases for sound, nor
work over tiresome platitudes but
always goes straight at the question
in hand in businesslike way. He
starts out by striking the paramount
issue right where it is. He says :
Primarily the present contest is a
contest for the continuance of the con-
ditions which have told in favor of our
material welfare and of our civil and
political integrity. If this nation is
to retain either it's well being or it's
self-respect it cannot afford to plunge
into financial and economic chaos it
cannot afford to endorse governmental
theories which would unsettle the
standard of national honesty and de-
stroy the integrity of our system of
justice. The policy of the free coin
age of silver at a ratio of sixteen to
one is policy fraught with destruc-
ton to every home in the land" This
is striking at the true issue sharp and
decisive and no amount of Democratic
paramounting can change it.

BUSINESS, ''greatly aggravated both by
honest but wrong headed attacks on
our whole industrial system in the
effort to remove some of the evils con-

there are abuses connected with them.
and that the first thing to do is to find
out the facts, and for this purpose

sion at considerable length, and says

THE WEATHER CHANGE.

The cold weather of the past few days
was quite severe for the first attack
and fire was most comfortable
feature. After all, the change was a
most welcome one after the long
heated spell, albeit, it doubtless more
severely felt than it otherwise would
have been. The frost yesterday morn
ing while it did some damage to ten
der plants in some localities was not
as damaging as many expected. While
the prospects were good for frost
last night, the change toward stormy
conditions headed it off. Outside of
some late garden stuff there was little
to be hurt by frost, even if it had been
most severe, as corn has long been out
of danger. This forenoon steady rain
set in and the day has been some
what dreary one.

MR.. GUNDERS DENIES.
The Published Statement That He Will
Run Independent I'M
founded.
Too Good a Republican to Hazard
Party Success at the
Polls.

Editor Free Press: My attention
has been called to an item in last eve
nings Review that propose running
independent, and to that end had had
printed petitions for circulation to Sc
cure signatures to insure my name a
place on the county ticket.
My past Republicanism and loyalty
to Republican principles and candi-
dates should be a guarantee of the
falsity of the statement. I have never
been charged with boiling Republi-
can convention or it's nominees and
whatever other Republicans may have
done in this respect shall not stand
as precedence to guide me in my
political actions.
I have no desire to enter into details
of the elements that. combined..to bring
about my defeat in the Republican
convention. 1t is sufficient for me,
as well as for the party that the dele
gates saw fit to name another gentle
man for the office, and no political act
of mine shall be permitted to thwart
or annul the action of that convention,
however much my political enemies
may strive to mar my standing as a
Republican.
If the Review has loaned itself to the
behest of few suspectful and cring-
ing Republican ward heelers to place
me in false light, it is welcome to
all the glory it can reap from such a
course. hope I am too good Re
publican to be changed with every
shifting wind, and while am frank
to say that some of the methods
adopted to compass my defeat were
beneath the dignity of not few of
the gentlemen implicated therein, I
most certainly bow submissively to
the result, with no pangs of remorse
or feelings of revenge left to egg me
on to destroy party harmony or jeopar-
die party success
We're it not that these ..rumors of
'independency'' had been heralded on
the streets for several days without
the slightest foundation in fact,
would not take up SO much of your
space to reply to the unfounded pub
licity given in the Review, and !
hope have made myself sufficiently
plain in this matter now as to put a
stop to anything of the kind in the
future.
Yours truly,
P. A. GUNDERS.

THE POET OF THE FUTURE.
Yours truly,
P. A. GUNDERS.

Strong poet of the coming age, whose
voice
Shall leave the vale of common
things,
Shall bear the nations on its wings,
And bid the skies rejoice!
Thou may'st not tread where other
bards have trod,
Who, mid the silence of the race,
With child-like voice won noble
place,
And turned our thoughts to God.
A thousand hearts now glow with lyric
fire;
Each zephyr watts a poets song;
The singers lost amid the throng,
The universal choir.
o thou who, winged with nobler
breath than they,
And driven great by this same
throng,
Shall pass thy fellows and be strong,
We wait for thee today.
While earth is choral with the multi
tude,
And in the anthem we rejoice,
We watch for thine, the solo voice,
The bard's estate renewed.
Be mine, my singing heart, to join
the choir
Which hymns, "The poets song be
great
Pause not at earth, try heaven s
gate;
Bring down the sacred fire !"
Nay, more, SO bold my heart is grown,
I crave
To be not wholly of the throng,
Myself to thrill noble song
High up to God who gave,
And fill in part, o Voice, thy vacant
place,
A few of beings truths to learn.
Into the Great Unfelt to yearn,
And cry before thy face

took so much territory from Mexico,
he briefly but logically replied: As
indemnity for the past and security
for the future Who wants to give up
any foot of that acquisition? Let him
show himself There is rebellion, it is
true, against this country by Aguin-
aldo. To suppress it is not imperial
ism, by the present administration
more than in the acquisition of Cali
fornia, New Mexico and other terri
tories
81 believe congress had the power
to legislate for the welfare of every
peaceful territory, that recognizes the
ownership and the authority of the
United States, just as Michigan, ILL
nois, Indiana, Wisconsin and Ohio,
was legislated for by congress. Also
the United States has the legal and
moral right to put down the rebellion
in the Philippines.
81 believe Mr.. Bryan is right on
the silver question, but I also believe
he is in error in raising the question
of imperialism, while President Nc
Kinley is endeavoring to suppress a re-
bellion in the Philippines which is his
duty and right to do.
For these reasons and his present
attitude on the Chinese question, I
feel bound by duty to manifest as far
as my individual loyal support may
go, the brave man who is at the head
of our government who has brought
order out of chaos, and whose bril-
liant deeds along the line of peace by
land and sea in craftsmanship will il
