cipate the time when Gabriel blows his
trumpet
On the question Of national banks
how does Mr.. Roosevelt stand? He is
in favor Of them. How hoes Judge
Parker stand? He is in favor OF them.
Where is the difference?
On the question Of trusts-Mr.
Roosevelt says he will break up the
Illegal trusts; Parker q he will

does not enumerate the illegal trusts.
and Parker does not specify them.

for the Cold STANDARD and a telegram
was received here in 81. Louis in
dicating that somebody else was in
favor Of the Gold Standard. too.
on the Negro question-what Is the
difference between Nr. Roosevelt and
Parker? Tell us IN plain words so
that we Will know what you mean
You say that Mr.. Roosevelt lunched
with Booker Washington. VIII Judge
