ROOSEVELT AND FAIRBANKS.
They Represent the Highest Type Of
Citizenship and Character.

They Represent the Highest Type Of
Citizenship and Character.
The Republican party is peculiarly for
tunate in its standard bearers this year.
In their selection political shFewdAess
and human wisdom are combined, aHe
surely no better ticket could have been
named than Roosevelt and Fairbanks,
one representing the Empire State Of the
Union and the other leading State of
the Central West.
The two men represent the highest
type of American character, yet they
are very unlike in their compartments
and individual traits One is naturally
impulsive, but education and practice
have taught him to curb his impulses by
reason and to make them obey the Sc
verest logic. The other is naturally con-
sentative, but his sense Of justice and
love Of right make him aggressive in
every good cause. Mr.. Roosevelt pos
sesses that quality of genius which en-
ables it's possessor often to solve din
cult problems by single operation Of
the mind and to reach conclusions alb
most at bound, while Senator FAIR
banks mind, working by fixed rules and
with mathematical precision, leads hfm
to conclusions that are logically perfecA
Mr.. Roosevelt's impulses are all in the
right direction and never lead him ia$0
making mistakes, while Senator FatH~
banks habit Of elaboration makes hfan
little slower to act but never prevents
his acting when action is required. One
represents the principle Of aggressive
ness governed and controlled by intefE~
gent conservatism, and the other The
princiDle OF conservatism inlbued wft4
the spirit OF progress. The two make q
great combination and a winning Ticket

Oscar Strauss.

New York, Aug. 17.-Oscar Strauss,
minister to Turkey under Cleveland, bolts
the Democratic ticket. In explaining this
step he says:
president Roosevelt's action in the
anthracite coal strike and in his rein
stating Miller in the government printing
office shows him to be a man whose
sense of right, under the most trying cir
cumstances, could not be influenced or
clouded by any considerations or ex-
pediency, however powerful they might
be.
''He has shown by these and other ex-
ecutive acts that, while he is the friend
equally of capital and labor, he will not
permit himself to be dictated to or in
fuenced by either to the prejudice of the
rights Of all the people"

The Home Market.

Good wages make good buyers and
general prosperity, full employment,
good wages, and fair prices are the only
conditions which can insure to a coun-
try the prosperity that comes from a
large distribution and consumption of all
kinds of products. Consequently the
country which has the wisdom to pro-
tect and guard the home market will be
most prosperous, and the party that fay
ors that policy represents patriotism,
prosperity and progress. That spells the
Republican party, and it's standard bear
er is Theodore Roosevelt.

MARKED REPUBLICAN GAINS.
Result of "Straw Vote" on Presiden-
tia1 Preferences of Chicagoana.

Chicago, Aug. 22.-The Tribune,
which has just completed straw vote
of presidential preferences Of all classes
of Chicago voters, found remarkable Re-
publican gains among all classes of citi-
zens. 1t says:
''The canvass was concluded yester-
day, after 10,98S persons had explained
their preferences for presidential candi-
dates. Of the number 6,5O4 gave Roose-
welt as their choice $3.50 said their bal
lots would be cast for Parker in No
vember, and 54S expressed themselves
for Debs, the Socialist candidate.
''There is gain shown Of 498 in the
usual Republican vote and a loss of 420
from the usual Democratic vote. This
indicated practically the same percent
age as last week, when there was Re
publican gain Of 17S over the regular
Republican vote and a Democratic loss
of PSI out of 1905 persons polled.

BE GOOD TO THEM.
While Webbing Indefinitely, Demo
crats Are Half HaDDy.

Gratis Are h6I dappys
There is such thing as thoughtful
ness and human kindness, and 1t be-
hooves the Republicans to rejoice with
the Democrats, inasmuch as the Demo
Gratis are, after a manner, rejoicing
among themselves, after many years.
Why should they not? They have at
least adjusted themselves together, after
a fashion and. in their own estimation,
are approaching the banks Of the sweet
waters.
1t is true that throughout all this
blessed assimilation runs a streak Of
venom There is Hill at the East and
there is Bryan in the West, there Is
gold and expert foxiness on the one hand,
and silver and loud-voiced, landscape
sweeping oratory on the other-and
where are we at?
{ Still, as human beings, caring for
other human beings, every broad-minded
Republican should be with the Demo
Gratis in their rejoicing over being half
way right. They have, at least got
together upon the same road. They are
all uncertain as they march; they wab-
BILE indefinitely, they do not know wheth-
er they are going to Oshkosh or Perdi-
ton, but what Of it! They are at least
marching together, and marching again
1t is, perhaps. not going too far to
say that putty is the only word that de-
scribes their candidates though each can
didate be eminently respectable and
good man, and unfortunate only in hav-
ing been brought under the searchlight
All those things do not matter at ALL
It is the halfway happiness of the Dem
ocrats in being halfway right in haying
halfway adjusted platforms together
that thinking men should rejoice over.
After all, we are nothing but fellow
beings with other beings, and we ought
to care for each other and rejoice in each
others happiness, and we should be glad
that, with a vague, indefinite dab at
platform which the Republicans have
been giving them for years, the Demo
Gratis are happy. God bless them! "God
bless us ALL" said little Tiny Tim.

THAT PARKER TELEGRAM.
An Independent Editors View, "a Bad
Attack of Hysteria.

Golfers Weekly is one of the papers
which tries to maintain a conservative,
Independent position. The fame Of it's
editor is worldwide and his serious judg-
ment is as sound as his sarcasm and
humor. The following concerning MI
ParkeraS telegram, which forms the lead
ing editorial in recent issue of Golfers
under the head of 'SHysteria," should be
read by every fair-minded voter:
"There is coming to pass in regard to
the Parker telegram about what was to
he expected. It matters not whether
they are for the Judges election or
against it. ordinary, clear headed Ameri-
cans must suffer reaction after beng
worked into excitement over allegations
that are absurd. They must come to see
the facts in the more or less clear light
of common sense. They observe the part
played by Mr.. August Belmont in the
present campaign. They read that Sen
ator AIcCarren receives salary OF
$40 900 a year from the Standard Oil
Company Whether that be true or not,
it is certain that the Senator is very
smooth man. They know something OF
the history Of the adroit Blue-Eyed
T Billy Sheehan and a good deal more Of
the history Of David Bennett HILL The
principles Of Bourke Cochran are not
shrouded in mystery. These men form
the group nearest to Judge Parker; most
likely to know and influence his councils;
most likely, were he President, to com
pose or suggest his cabinet.
''Now, men of this stamp secured the
nomination of Judge Parker at st. Louis,
acting as his spokesman. Certain prom
ges and compromises were necessary to
obtain that prize. When the nomina-
ton was secure, and could not be taken
away, without putting the Democratic
party in the position of seeming to re-
ject a man because he favored gold, the
Judge sent his telegram. He was i'm
mediately hailed by that part Of the
press which is primarily interested in
markets as a hero who had been willing
to sacrifice the Presidency to his duty.
Such idiocy must have its rebound.
"Bryan's cross of gold metaphor, which
drove another class of people into frenzy,
had its reaction, although even it, fall
lacious as it was, had much soldier
foundation than the childish story that
to offer back a nominate when it could
not possibly be withdrawn without abb
surd disaster was the bravest deed ever
perpetrated in American politics. Inani-
ties of that kind never pay. The people
may become excited for a moment, bat
then they settle down to contemplate
with digust the spectacle they have
made Judge Parker played good poll
tics, or he did not. Those who tried to
turn him into a hero did all they could
to turn him into an ass. The newspaper
which is trying to prove that it forced
him to send the telegram is not doing
him any more harm than the others
which are still hailing him as Casabian-
ca. If the Democrats wish to carry
New York, not to talk of any Western
State. they had better get busy and show
that Judge Parker is less of a pIutocrat
and more of a Democrat than Theodore
Roosevelt"

to send the money abroad and have the
