Delaware Is that for Roosevelt campaign
purposes Addicks gas will flow without

Oavis.-Los Angeles Herald.
The Republican organs have much to
say about Senator Henry G.. Davis
dough The West Virginian may be
wealthy, but he has a public record to
be proud of.-Atlanta Constitution.
The silly attempt to belittle Judge
Parker and to impugn the integrity O
his motives do not confirm the al
nouncement that the Republicans cam .
paign wa to De conducted on a singh
moral plane.'-N. Y. World.
Several Republicans in Indiana hav.
announced themselves as candidates fol

The failure Of Democrats to make
similar announcement may indicate 6
belief that Mr.. Fairbanke will serve OH,
his term.-N. Y.World.
On the pension question the Dem
ocratic party and the Republican party
agree that the veterans who deserye
pensions should have them. They dis
agree. however, in this wise-tho D,m,
ocrsts would grant pension from patri
otto motives, while the Republican,
insist on granting them for p~olitica
reasons.-The Conmoner.
Mr.. Roosevelt has the support OF hi
intimate friends and his political pro
teReE, but conservative people eye him
with distrust. They acknowledge tina,
he is irreproachable ne an individual
that he is a stanch patriot, a goot
husband, "a loyal friend, But they die
trust his capacity for soli.control anc
distrust his iudgement.-N. Y. Herald.

Ms Senator Lodge ar.ogantly puts it,

Republican leader. The Republican

would be disastrous to talk Of such mat

The same programme is attempted on
the tariff. The Republican leaders cay
stand pat, and il the time ever comes
when it becomes necessary for party
success to amend the tariff in our own
