will not be won by any formal plat

is better. The truth is Mr.. Roosevelt

He is the main point OF attsck by the

would be elected without any platform
except the record Of the party and hi
own.

IN SUPPORT OF JUDGE PARKER,

With one exception, and that yell
low journal, all the New York news
papers opppoed the Democratic ticket
in 1896 and 1900. To-day all are sup
porting Parker except the Sun, which
has recently reversed itself, and the
Tribune and Press, Republican organs.
Judge Parker's letter of acceptance
the World says; ga complete anti
thesis to the Roosevelt whom the coun-
try has known for the past dozen
wears is the man disclosed by this
strong and convincing speech" The
Evening Post says "the speech makes
it PLAIN to all that Judge Parker was
the right candidate with whom to op-
pose President Roosevelt" The Times
says: "Be talks as one who if raised
to the Presidency would lead the
country IN the way of wisdom, in tho
paths of peace The Herald says:
''It appeals not to popular sentiment
or prejudice, but to the sober thought
of the people. 1t condemns the ten@
dency toward government by an ins
diyidual, but urges return to gov
eminent of laws based on the Consti-
tuition" The Staats-Zeitung, the
leading German paper, in the course
of an approving editorial, says: zone
cannot help but be Of the opinion that
this man thinks exactly as he speaks,
and that he will act exactly in the same
manner. One is inspired by a feeling
of caImness and safety, all apprehen-
sion disappears and we are possessed
of full confidence in the man who has
spoken. Nobody can sheer now that
the Democratic candidate has nothing
to say. He has spoken, and in impos
ing, convincing and plain language
he has announced his right to the
leadership. The warfare against tariff
and trusts and against corruption is
not the main issue. More important
is the fight against such spirit which
leads to adventures, and which wants
to disregard law and right. Such il
the sense of his speech, and therefore
it inspires absolute confidence, and
for that reason, his speech Will bring
] to him the support of thousands who
were waiting for the moment when he
proved himself to be the selected lead
er of Democracy,

skirr,:ish all the time. and there are
twenty players on a side. An Indian
catches the ball in his stick il he is
skillful. lie starts OF q run for his
his opponents. and the scene closely
resembles a down" He runs as far
as he can. and then tries to throw the
ball. The opposing players balk him
at every move. They strike his stick IL
they can. and # not they strike what
ever Is in reach, often the head of the
player. The games are sometimes ve-
bloody. especially when played between
rival towns. II many n player has
been killed in the game. When women
play they are allowed TO use thci,
hands In addition TO their ticks. They
can throw the ball any way they like.
They are as fleet ns the men. md
