EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Why They Prefer Roosev.lt.


Chicago Inter-Ocean:
a western Democrat, who is a United
states senator, said in Washington.
II VIII be very difficult for the Dem
ocIdts 70 nominate man who can poll
the Iul Democratic vote in the west
against President Roosevelt"
This Democratic senator believes
that many of the Democrats who voted
for Mckinley in 1896 and in 1900 will
vote for Roosevelt in 1904 and in addi-
ton, many of the Democrats who voted
for Bryan in 1900 viii vote for Roose-
welt IN preference to Cleveland in 1904
In the view Of this Democratic senator
the Bryan Democrats will support Mr.
Roosevelt. not because he represents
their views or their politics. but be-
cause Of his courage in attacking trust
evils. Many Populists, it is declared
who left the Republican party wears
ago VIII return because President
Roosevelt has restored confidence in The.
Republican party as a party Of the plain
people as we'll as Of the rich and DOW
erful He is the most popular president
we have ever had. so far as popularity
is based on confidence in the courage
as well as the integrity of a great ex-
ecutive-' On the same day that this
declaration was made in Washington,
former State Senator Edwin Taylor,
one Of the POpulist leaders in Kansas
said, in an interview. Between Wall
street and Roosevelt, / stand for Roose-
Welt. He is our man for next years
race He is not exactly our kind of
people, but he has courage. Kansas
viii give Roosevelt 100 600 majority, but
lots of the kansans who will vote for
him will continue to hate his ideals. -
These interviews were given to the
public after the president had visited
many of the western states and had
met the people face to face. after he
had made several notable speeches de-
fining his policy on the more important
questions.

extensive a decline as that witnessed
IN the last six months should be en-

steadily passing from weak into strong
hands; many good securities have
shrunk 20 to 40 points and over. and
when liquidation has run its course
there win be only these obstacles to a
good recovery, viz. the crop, money and
labor situations. At present there is
more or less perplexity regarding all
three. The agricultural outlook has
been materially affected by the unusual
backwardness of the season increasing
the danger to corn and cotton from
frost; and the Industrial outlook is still
unsettled by labor agitation"
