ent Administration
The constitution Of the United States
requires an election for president and
vice president every four years. The
provision liz mandatory and cannot be
escaped. Under 1t the people are
called upon to vote for president and
vice president every fourth year with
out regard to politics, the record, or
the work of the administration in
power. The election must be held
whether d change is desirable or not.
There is reason to believe that
large majority of the American PEG.
pie do not desire a change In the
national administration at the present
time, and that if it were a matter OF
choice with them no election would be
held this year. A national election
always inserferes with business more
or less, and as the business of the
country grows the feeling increases
that, in the absence Of any reason for
change, a presidential election Is a
disturbing factor that might well be
dispensed with il the constitution per-
mitted That is the situation at pres
ent. The great mass of the people are
SO well satisfied with the present adj
mfnistration that they do not desire
change and if the constitution did
not require an election to be held they
would regard it as unnecessary.
Who wants a change? Not the
farmers, for they never were more
prosperous or better satisfied than they
are at present. Not the business men.
for business is salts org. Not man
ufacturers, for American manufacture
ers are outstripping those of all other
countries Not wage-earners, for there
are more men employed at good wages
today than ever before in the history
of the country. Not railroad men, for
the transportation business has grown
enormously during the last few years
and still gives promise of future
growth. In short, no large class Of
our varied population can be named
but has good reason to desire a con-
tinuance of present conditions. II it
were not for the constitutional require
ment the people would have preferred
| that no election took place this year.
The only exceptions are the Demo
cratic party leaders and those IN
fortunate people who have not the
sense to let well enough alone.

Nonpartisan Testimony That Roosevelt ii

Leader of Peace Movement.
Apropos Of the silly Democratic
charge that Mr.. Roosevelt is "war
lord, it is interesting to note how the
Interparliamentary Union views the
president. The union is composed OF
some OF the leading parliamentarians
OF Europe. who visited this country
II the interest Of international arbitra-
ton and peace. The visitors were en-
tertained at luncheon by the Nation
al Civic Federation OF New York re-
Gently. Here is what Thomas Tough,
an Irish member OF the union, ia pro-
posing toast to the president of the
United States, said, as reported by the
New York World, a newspaper that
has been picturing Mr.. Roosevelt ais
q yeritable god OF war:
We. who are visitors here, after few
days regard him as q ruler Of one Of the
mlghrest powers on the earth, who
has taken a more distinct step III the
interest OF peace than perhaps any
other power has taken. He Is not only
great ruler himself but is a worthy
representative OF a great line of rulers
who have done much for the liberties
Of mankind.
NE. Randall CrGner, noted mem
Der Of the British parliament, also
praised the president. The soyereigns
Of Europe. he declared, were ready to-

The 0eorglanH opinion Of HO0seveN

Thomas Il. Watson, the candidate Of
the Peoples party, Is getting q great
deal OF amusement out OF what he
calls the independent side-show Of his
own, Of which he is lin full militant
aggressive control" He says he re.
spects Roosevelt and the Republicans
because they know what they want,
are candid in stating their position and
fearless In lighting for their principles.
He prefers Roosevelt TO Parker, be-
cause the former SIS not seeking the
support of Bryan Democrats upon
false pretensions. He is not playing
d confidence game on the negro ques-
ton. He Is not attempting to win
Jeffersonians by a sham adherence to
Jeffersonian principles. He Is not in

AS to the Democracy itself Mr.
Watson asks:
who could put faith in the pledges
of the party which has SO little unity

What party ever made and brok,
so many pledges?"
what party ever changed 1T

what other party ever unloaded al

Candor compels the answer None

~ Ia Very Important that It Sho uld BE
Republican.
In the great political contest which
occurs in this country every -four
years, and which is now ON, the cleo
ton of President lis apt to overshadow
all other interests. This ought not to
be SO. The President Is the head Of
the executive branch Of the govern,
ment, but the legislative branch ia
equally as important. Republicans
should remember that it is as import
ant to hold Congress as it is to elect
the President. The election Of Judge
Parker would mean much more than
the induction of his personality into
that high Office. His election would
mean the election of Democratic
House Of Representatives, and this
would be most unfortunate, because:
First, the Democratic party, com.
posed as It is Of all the distracted eler
ments OF the country, is not capable
of successfully administering the az.
fairs Of this government. It has NOT
the capacity to deal with the great
problems that now confront US. Sec.

southern policies. In answer to this il
may be said that Democratic House
could do no harm, sis the Senate would

any unwise Of radical legislation. but
Democratic House could prevent Re-.
publican legislation, and great harm
might result from that. The election Of

In 1860 when the Republican party
first came into power this was almost
exclusively an agricultural country and
the policy of the Democratic party was
to keep It so. That party said the
United States IL destined to be the
granary Of the world, but a manufact-
uring country, never. The Republican
policy was to make it great manu-
featuring as well as agricultural
country, and it has done SO. In the
year 1900 the United States produced
one-third Of ali the manufactured
products Of the world and shipped
them broadcast to fofeign markets.

goods under false p%retense. #

merchandise of the value of 1850. 23,
which plaintiff permitted him to have

property and that he was indebted

Since the debt was contracted MI.
Sylvester has ceased his connection
