PRESIDENT RoosEvELT's letter to
Representative Watson, of Indiana,
which was given ouD Monday by the
Republican Congressional Committee,
a synopsis of which appears in another
column, is sure to prove the most pow
erful campaign document that the Re-
publican party will have at its service
in the coming elections, In it the
President outlines the issues of the
campaign with such force and evident
sincerity, and so conclusiyely shows
the necessity Of continuing the Repub-
lican party in power in order to COM
plete the great work of reform OF cor
porate and other abuses to which the
Administration has set it's hand, that
it cannot but have a far-reaching and
decisive effect upon the public mind at
the present peculiar crisis in politics
and the broader issues of government
al policy That President Roosevelt
is as staunch Republican as he ever
was, and believes that whatever de
fects or shortcomings may be charged
against that party it yet remains the
hope Of good government and prosper
ity for our nation. is thoroughly dem
onstrated by this letter, which pract-
ically places the powerful personality
and unrivaled influence of the Execu-
tive at the head of his party in the
coming campaign. While not offend
ing any rational sense Of propriety,
the Presidents argument will be quite
as effective as If he should personally
take the stump for his party this fall.
There is evidently leadership of a re-
markably high character at work in
the preparation and management of
the Republican campaign of 1906.

THE people Of Morristown gave tn,

The people of Morristown gave their
assent to the trolley proposition by a
most decisive vote on Wednesday, and
probably large percentage of the
votes cast in the negative represented
the feeling that a long time franchise
should not be granted rather than an
opposition to the much-needed public
utility. Now that the people have
consented it is up to the trolley pro-
moters to set to work IN good earnest
and commence the construction of the
road as planned, and also to make APP
plication for another franchise to carry
the road to the railroad station and on
Through to the lower part of the
town. There is animpression prevail
Ing that the trustees Of the Park are
opposed to running the road alongside
of the Green, but as their consent had
not been asked when the other fran
chiSe was asked for there was no APP
Parent reason for the impression, and
as the trustees are public spirited men
who hold the Green in trust for the
people it is not to be supposed for an
instant that they will stand in the
way of a public improvement demand
I'd by large number OF citizens.
