Tammanyi "Blue-Eyed Billy Sheehan'
is Judge Parker's friend and neighbor
at Rosemount To him Parker addressed
his famous telegram at the st. Louis
convention. Daily Judge Parker is sur
rounded by the Sheehans, O'Briens and
the McDonalds of Tammany. There y
no hiding from an argus-eyed people, and
the best proof OF yadge Parker's lack
of knowledge of the American people is
that he does not know that his assccia-
ton with Tammany will not be excused
or condOned by them. In New York.
he possibly argues. Tammany ia endur-
ell. with restiveness. it is true. but still
endured. Outside of New YORK this IS
not true. but Judge Parker does not
know the true temper of the American
people outside of New York. How
should be.
The Enigma OF Esopus" is no longer
an enigma. Put forth by the cunning
hand of David 3. Hill, supported by
the restrained savagery OF Tammany, the
astute politician and campaign manager
Of Ulster County. posed. for few days.
wrapped about in his judicial robes as
in garment OF veneration and mystery.
A look at his record. glance at his
political associates and friends, and the
tableau dissolves amidst the choking
smoke of the hash-light.

When the gold message of Alton b.

This was the same public be id"
attitude that arrogant corporations used

Mr.. Bryac. all the Democrats in the

know whether or not. or to what extent
his views were their views. But this

manager of the convention deemed it of

want to answer for fear of making a

as to financial views which might not

The Vermont Land.lide

Chairman Bullard of the Vermont
Democratic State committee said, the
night before the election: I'VE feel that
IL the figure (of the Republican plural
ity) is below 25.oO0 this year it is a
sure indication that the national election
will go Democratic"
Well, the Democratic manager himself
made the estimate. Re counted the
chances of the Democratic party in the
present campaign as might be indicated
by the September vote in his own State.
Representing his party. he made the
estimate end the result has been appall-
ing-for the Democrats-the Republican
plurality being 31.500. There has been
Republican landslide Of about one
fourth over the norulal vote in the State
OF Vermont.

Constitutional Club in behalf OF Judge
Parker, gives the following reasons for
his support Of President Roosevelt:
President Roosevelt appeals favor
ably 10 me because his administration
has given to the country a progressive
and liberal management of its affairs.
Through its agency the United States
has received the valuable privileges re-
lating 10 the construction Of the Panama
canal, privileges which would not. and
could not, have been acquired but for
the hrm and determined position quickly
taken by the President. Furthermore,
the present method OF dealing with the
Philippine question seems to me to be
the only practical solution OF that
difficult problem"

Democrats in Northern Wisconsin. has
