California Democratic Newspapers
Reasons for Supporting Roosevelt.
The Sacramento Daily Bee, hereto
fore the leading California Democratic
daily, has thrown up. 1.-The Democratic
sponge and will support the Republican
ticket, giving the following reasons:
'sThe Bee can say for Theodore Roose-
welt that the trusts do not want him,
while they do want Parker.
And it can say of the Republican
platform that whenever there was any
thing to be said on any public issue, it
said it. 1t did not hesitate and STAN
mer and stutter and finally put out
long farrago of words, saying much and
meaning netting; nor did it smother the
question altogether, on the ground that
there were no votes to be got by injuring
anybody's feelings on either side.
The Republican platform stands out
in the open and says: Here | am. You
can, either take me or leave me-.
''The Democratic platform darts out
ssneakingly like a Chatham street sec
ond-hand clothing dealer, appealing to
each voter: My opinions are just the
same as yours. Vot are yours? Come
in and I'll show you a coat that will
perfectly fit you. l can fit any man Of
any size
In this world men cannot get all they
want, nor half they desire. They must
make a choice between what is set be-
fore them.
"And the Bee chooses Theodore Roose-
welt in preference to Alton Brooks
Parker.
1T chooses Roosevelt because, with
all his faults, he stands self-reliant in
his American manhood, independent,
courageous. plucky, conscientious, I'M
trammeled and unpurchasable, shackled
to no syndicate of corporations; the
thrall of no criminal coterie waxing fat
upon illegal profits; the automatic
mouthpiece Of no predatory monetary
combination evading just laws now on
the statute books and numbering honest
measures in the womb of legislation.
1T opposes Alton Brooks Parker be-
cause he is not free agent; because
he is but as clay in the hands of the
potter, and that potter August Belmont;
because ne is merely the graphophonc
of Wall street, and what little The Peo-
pie have heard through the machine has
enthusiastically revealed the Voice of His
Master; because he is to-day but the
instrument which the Trusts hope to use
