PREsrpENTIAL AssuMAcY.

It does seem that the real friends and well wishers of the President--for We suppose he still has some--must become heartily tired of the continual humiliation of having to defend him from himself. His many blunders and reckless statements, to call them by no harsher term, cannot fail to be a source of worry and dread to his friends. The attack he made on Chairman Wadsworth was largely without foun- dation and part of 1t was not true. to speak plainly. Then his explanation and retraction was little more credi- table to him than the original offence, for while he admits that he was in er- TOT in some particulars he explains in a way that doesn't better matters to any great extent The reply of MT. Wadswortk to the original charges made by Roosevelt was timely and in good temper, but was plain and to the point. That reply must have been gall to the Presidents friends. knowing as they did that it was deserved. If Roosevelt would wait to learn the truth before rushing into print he would do himself much more credit than he does by blurting out his senti- ments without regard to either fair ness or propriety. and he would save his friends much humiliation.
 Another thing that is justly worry ing Republicans is the Presidents un- paralleled assumacy. No President be- fore him has so endeavored to consti- ute himself the entire government as he-has done. In a special from Wash ington printed Sunday we are told that "Republicans are euraged and Demo- crats are amazed" at his frequent ef- forts to dictate to Congress, though why the Democrats should be amazed we are unable to understand. for there's nothing new about 1t. The only reason for wonder is that he learns nothing. He ought to know by this time that he cannot bulldoze ,he Senate, at all events. or dictate to if. In fact. If his perceptive organs were not bIunted by his own eonceit, he would see that the surest way to defeat A measure in the Senate is by endeavor- ins +o brow-beat the Senators. lt may ba that his repeated rebufrs and fall ures has only aroused his natural ob- stinacy, and that the more he is check mated the more determined he is to dle- tate.
 One bad feature of this condition of affairs ia that Roosevelt's good sug- gestions are not needed as they should be. When he has something of real im-

As might have been expected the speech of Senator Money stirred them up no little. Especially do the Eas- tern people object to his assertion that "one Western man is worth five Eastern men in all the elements of selfrespect. courage and manhood" If he had used Southern man" instead of Western there would have been some boiling over beyond doubt, but as the West is largely peopled from the East it disarms the Fasteners to some extent. Still the remark hurts. Like Tillman. Senator Money is not always very tender of the feelings of others in his speeches. But his speech on the Statehood bill, in which he used the comparison we have quoted. was generally on the right lines, even If some of it was more forcible than polite.

HOW IT HAS CHANGED.

Last Sunday was the golden anniver- sary of the birth of the Republican party. Fifty years ago the abolition-. ists. or Black Republicans as we used to call them, met in Philadelphia, orga- mixed themselves into party. resoiut- ed about I-ansas, Nebraska, the Mis- souri Compromise, slavery and various other matters. and nominated John c. Fremont for President. It is really amusing to see how the Republican party in it's early days differed from it's present way of thinking. For ex- ample, their convention of 1860. which precision;
 That the maintenance inviolate of the rights of the States, and especially the right of each State to order and control it's own domestic institutions a. cord Ing to its owr judgment exclusively. is essential to that balance of powers on which the perfection and endurance of Seneupvcs & p, the lawiess Invasion by % arm % ed force of the soil of any State or Territory. no matter under what pre- text. as among the gravest of crimes.
 That is pretty good states rights
  The underlying reason for that deliv- eranee lay in the fact that the South ern people had invaded Kansas and were trying to establish slavery there, by force as well as by settlement This it was that called forth the language we have quoted. but the doctrine was good. And yet not one year had clap sed before the States of the South were invaded by armed forces sent out by the President elected on the plat form from which we have quoted Southern men invading Kansas to es- tablish slavery was quite different in their view from Northern men invad- ing Virginia to abolish slavery It was a different OK that was gored. and the states Rights Republicans of 1860 were imperialists of the fighting kind a year later.
 But that isn't all or even the worst. for that same convention expressed it. self in favor of "a revenue tarin with incidental protection"-just what Dem- oerats now demand. Republican con- vsntion of today which would put out such a declaration as that would send the C. o. P. to a mad-house. It was good doctrine but lacked very much of being what the Republicans now clam or for. The party of trusts, graft and special privileges has gotten a long way from its infantile doctrines, and It's prosenitors would hardly know the child in its present clothes.

The Change in His old County as Clayton Record.
 The indications are that we will have & close race this year for Governor. Some time ago 1t looked like q very did, but there is no doubt public opin- ion is changing and by the 2Tth day of August we may expect close fin- ish. During the two weeks that CIT cult Court was In session here the writ the subject and was surprised to find that such a change had taken place since pr. Cunningham began an actlye conversed with those who were attend ing the sheriff contest this week. Many gentlemen who were thought to be site. fhey are strong for Cunningham. This is MT Corners old home county, and 1t has been conceded to him all along, but there is no telling this far
 1t Seems that time and careful stu dy of the question have effected the change. Our people are becoming nets are doing soms thinking for them: selves, Nlnd It Is proper that they should do so. In fact IL is a bad sign to see some self constituted leader. Such ac- tion on the part of the voters indicate a lack of that sober thought and care fui study that should be given to the
  lions confronting us. The people are more thoughtful and conservatiye than not easily deceived by promises which. in most cases are made for the purpose of procuring votes only. We havs had fine recent past by one of the candi- dates for Governor have never been fulfilled Were they made in good faith. That Is the question. All over inc State the average voter Is thinking, and the result will surprise the man who a few months ago, thought MT. Conner had a walk-over. The people can be duped for a while and led along by the nose, as 1t were for Q time, but this method will not last long.
 They are beginning to demand of a candidate that his promises and pledg- es be fulfilled. This MT. Conner has not done.
 Yes. the people are thiEking and forming conclusions too. And as a re- suit pr. Cunningham is gaining ground every day.

portance to communicate to Congress he does 1t in such way as to arouse antagonism and defeat his good inten- tions. Besides. there is so much dicta- torial advice handed out by him that Congress doesn't give proper heed to his really commendable suggestions. He loses friends by his overbearing ways, and loses Influence as well. In our judgment if 1t were not for his power to reward ana punish his real friends In Congress = would be few. Some stand by him from the best of motives but many others are his friends because of the patronage he can give or withhold. There has been no other President like Roosevelt. for which We are thankful
