Thing.
 Chicago, H., Sept. 20.-According to Chicago's Democratic Mayor. Carter il. Harrison, the outlok for the triumph of the Parker and Davis tick ct is excellent, so far as the country at large is concerned. While Mayor Harrison has not had things his way. His views are of distinct importance from the fact that he always has Losn able to hold his ear close to the ground and read the signs of the times with uncommon clearness and accuracy.
 Speaking of the situation today Mayor Harrison said:
 Tt is not too much to say, even at this early date, that the signs pointing to Democratic success in November are decidedly encouraging There is this year no excuse for any man who calls himself Democrat to fail to sup port the ticket, no matter if he felt Ogliged in some previous campaig-., temporarily. to sidestep in his ale glance to the party of Jefferson.
 Again it should be remembered that the party is especially fortunate in the personality of it's presidential candidate. Not only is Judge Parker able to command the confidence and admiration of all Democrats without regard to factional views or prejuGices but he is just the kind of man to lp- peal to the sound and sober judgment of the independent voter. Temper amentally President Roosevelt is the opposite of Judge Parker. His ten dency, as indicated by his official acts, is toward the large exercise of person al power, in the director of a large military ambition, and toward a cisre- gard of traditional restraints. where these seem to stand in the way Of realization of his immediate purposes and politics.
 Roosevelt's Secretary of State. who is undoubtedly faithfully carrying out the policy of the Chief Executive, is un- doubtedly disapproved by the conser- vative element of our citizenship. It is said that President Roosevelt is on record, in one of his books, with the statement when he came to Little Mountain he was at once made famil- jar with the motto Never draw unless you mean to shoot, and that he ad- ded the comment that this is sound policy for a nation.
 The American people are also in- clined to feel that the strenuous Presi. dent may sometime be led into ,h , mistake of drawing once too ofce2. Evidently the Republican leaders feel that, especially in the State from which Lincoln and Grant came to the nation, at the time of the great peril, the attitude of President Roose ge,t toward the expansion of our military power will be fully sustained and ap proved. Evidently they have com pletely overlooked the significant fact that we have hundreds of thou. sands of citizens who were born un- der one or another of the military governments of Europe, who came to this country to enjoy immunity from precisely that kind of thing, and to whom anything approaching military government is hateful and abhorrent in the extreme. These citizens of foreign birth, are, perhaps, even more jealous of our free institutions and our constitutional government, than are the the direct tiss-eeGda1tsef de of the PaEi. tan Fathers. Any inclination on the part of the President of the United States to disregard constitutional limi- tations, to exercise a degree of per sonal power and authority not up- held by the traditions o<this country, is certain to awaken the distrust and disapprovai of these liberty-loving cit Zens who have left their native coun- try because they have suffered hard. ships, and have endured limitations imposed by form of government per. sonal and military in it's character.
 There are enough German citizens alone. to reflect this sentiment in Q practical way at the polls, to give Illinois to the Democratic party il once, and with one mind, they become convinced that President Roosevelt in. tends to make this country a grea' world power in the military sense and that he would if necessary, over step the plain limitations of constitu fional rights. violate the best tradi tions of our Government, and fail tr uphold our free institutions in the most strict and loyal manner"
 Concerning the Vermont election Chairman Boeschenstein said:
 ''The Vermont election has no sig nificance. Vermont has a popui.i ton of 341,641, of which but 44.00t are foreign born. Of this numbe' g 900 are Canadians There are but 1000 Irish. Germans and BohemiaH' in fhe state Illinois has population of 5.O3o, 900, and fully 100000 of thi' number are foreign boa. or this mil lion only 50,600 are Cln7 IiaHs Tn; others are Germans. i-is1.
