Not Specific ENOUGH,


The st. Louis Globe Democrat, a
stanch Republican organ grinder con-
tanned recently this hazy editorial par
agraph:
Our commerce with Japan amounts to
500 900, 900 year, with exports and i'm
ports we'll divided. One item like this Is
worth more than all the vague war talk,
Who talked the war talk? And was
1t so vague as the GID. would have us
believe? Not very much, provided the
public press can be depended on to tell
the plain, unyarnished truth. Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt president of the
United States, and his coterie Of syco-
plants are the persons who talked war
more than anybody else They do say
that when he was shaking the big stick
over the Californians at the White
House the picture OF the Japs Smelling
San Francisco which he drew for the
benefit Of Mayor Schmitz and the Cali
fornia congressman and senators caus-
ed each particular hair to stand on end
as quilts upon the fretful porcupine
He bullied them into accepting the
very thing which they solemnly swore
from the Golden Gate to the Potomac
that they would die before accepting. If
the CD. will take the trouble to refer
to its own files, it will discover that the
war talk was anything but vague.
That is not the adjective which the
CD. should have employed. "Decep-
tive" war talk Is the proper expression.
There was no danger of war with
Japan for the simple reason that Japan
could not borrow the money to carry
Oh war, and everybody but the Cali
fornians knew It, Some day we will
have a war with Japan. 1t will come
just as soon as she can borrow enough
money. That Is to say, we will have a
war with her unless somebody else
thrashes the big head out of her before
she gets ready to fight us.

Two Opinions.

Baltimore, Md.-Henry G. Davis. former
senator from West Virginia and three
vice president of the United States. spent
the day in Baltimore. He paid several
business visits and chatted for a few
minutes with former Governor Frank
Brown at the headquarters of the Demo
cratic Taxpayers association.
WHO is your choice for the Democrat
ic nomination for the presidency next
year," Mr.. Davis was asked.
Il think Judge Gray is a good man.
replied the senator. He has long been
before the public. His record is well
known. He has demonstrated that he Is
broad minded and liberal. AS an arbi-
traitor in the labor troubles in the mining
region he proved by his decisions that
he was fair to the laboring MANN fact
werkingmen all over the country have
shown great partially for him. While

Is small state, he is more than a Della

longs to the whole nation. believe that
he Is the favorite in West Virginia for

will be in position to win next Year,"
Most assuredly, If the Democrats will
conduct campaign on conservative IS
Sues
what has been the effect of the anti
railroad agitation?"
mo doubt it has hurt railroad securi-
ties. L believe, however, in the good
sense of the American people, and I be-
lteve they will demand fair play for the
railroads. There was a great deal of agi-
tation in West Virginia against corpora
lions, but the people are beginning to re-
alize that they invited the corporations
into the state and asked them to invest
their capital there. and they believe that
investments should be literally treated
The West Virginia corporations have
borne their full share of public burdens.
Speaking for my own railroad interests
I might say that we have never protested
against the tax laws of the state"
Mr. Davis has passed the winter and
spring In Washington, where he has been
in close touch with the most prominent
Democratic leaders of the country - in
fact, 1t may be said that there Is q move
ment already on foot to bring about
Judge Gray's nomination next year, and
it now looks as though he will have the
support of the conservative wing OF the
Democratic party.
Columbus. Off Bryan is nominated
for president he will contest every state
in the Union, Ohio included" said
Chairman Harvey C. CARRIER on returning
from Cincinnati, where he met the Ne
braskan.
'Mr. Bryan needs no manager In Ohio, ("
continued Mr.. CARRIER. "He told me that
he knew his friends in Ohio and wanted
all Of them to stay in politics preparatory
to next years great struggle. In dis
cussing men he spoke OF Colonel James

Affected hx Hot weathar.

The unreasonable hot weather lately
appears to have excited the cerebrum
cerebellum and medulla oblongata of
Uncle Shelby NJ Cullom of Illinois
who looks like Abraham Lincoln on
the outside-to a remarkable degree.
Usually Uncle Shelby Is mild as q
sucking dove, but recently he has de-
clared that Mr. Hartman deserves to
be hanged! That's most remarkable
statement to be made by such a ven
cradle statesman as the senior and per-
petual senator from Illinois. If his col
league, Senator Fl. J. Hopkins, who
wears titianesque hair and has a red
hot temper, should say thing like
that, nobody would wonder. Or should
Billie Mason express such a lurid
opinion 1t would be taken as a matter
Of course. But for Uncle Shelby to do
so is startling proposition. It will be
remembered that when Robespierre
was quite young man he resigned a
judgeship rather than pass the death
sentence on a.convicted murderer, yet
he lived to be so callous as to order
scores Of the finest heads In France to
be chopped off before breakfast every
morning. Uncle Shelby must certainly
be listening once more to the fascinat-
Ing buzZing Of the presidential bee
There Is no telling what man suffer
ing from the presidential fever will do.
He has just begun his full fifth term
IN the senate and If he lives has at
least six years more In which to ex-
plot his opinions, and 1t may be that
he made this fling at Hartman in or
der to bring the multitude focking to
his presidential banner 1t must make

spinal columns of Hartman eft id genus

the Nestor Of Illinois Republicans In
the meantime If Uncle Shelby is
presidential candidate he would do well
to watch Governor Deneen.

[special washington Letter.l


THE two most conspicuous figures
in America today are Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt and Colo
= mel William Jennings Bryan.
They have both been running for pres
ident ever since they learned that there
is such an office known among men.
Roosevelt has reached the goal, and
the chances are that Bryan will keep
on running till he reaches it, The 9th
er day he was forty-seven. He an
nounces that he will remain active in
politics till he is sixty-nine, including
five more presidential campaigns. He
Is too modest. There Is Uncle Joe
Cannon, for instance, who is seventy
one and who is running for president
just as fast as he can. Should Uncle
Joe be nominated and elected he would
be seventy-seyen when his first term
expired. SO Bryan has set his final
exit from political activity at least
eight years too early judged by the
Cannon standard and some twenty
years too soon, judged by the standard
Of Senator Pettus of Alabama.
Colonel Roosevelt has as yet fixed
no limit to his political activities.
Were / to express my own opinion it
would be that death is the only limit
to the political activities Of either Colo
mel Bryan or Colonel Roosevelt. They
both love the game, and they will new
err swear off-never.
While Colonel Roosevelt has not fix
ed the time to retire from politics,
Judge Theodore E. Burton of Ohio,
who now appears to be cheek by jowl
with him and who Is putting in all his
spare time boosting Mr.. Secretary
Taft has stated in a public speech
lately that mfr. Roosevelt might be
looked to as q national leader In 1912,
1916 or 1920'-that is, according to
Brother Burton, after Taft has had his
day in the White House. President
Roosevelt may be nominated and elect
ed again-all of which is long range
shooting surely. As the French say
"Nous yerronSr'
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1907-04-06
Seems Certain.

Surface signs indicate that Mr.. Sec
rotary Taft is so certain that he will
be nominated for president that he
thinks it safe to be absent from "the
United States proper'-God save the
mark!-a great deal, or he is so certain
that he will not be nominated that he
feels that there Is no use fooling away
his time or squandering his energies
In an attempt to round up delegates.
The New York Sun thus discourses on
his remarkable itinerary:
The intended peregrinations and official
gyrations of the secretary Of war pos
sess much interest for philosophers Mr.
Taft expects to start next Saturday fof
Gatun dam and elsewhere. Common re-
port has in store for this diligent public
servant and intrepid traveller an amazing
series or succession Of journeyings be-
tween now and the beginning of the pres
fdeatial year which will take him to
Panama, Colon, Cuba, Porto Rico, Can
ada, Alaska and the Philippines, Guam
and Tutuila, with brief intervals of do
nestle employment.
Other candidates, active or passive,
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1907-04-06

have swung around their chosen circles.
No circle was ever drawn with radius
anything like this.
We note one thing, however about the
Taft itinerary distinguishing 1t from all
precedent and previous experience even
more signally than the matter of mere
distance. We refer to the paucity Of DEL
egates. In all these tens of thousands Of
miles of campaigning we can discern not
more than eighteen possible votes In the
convention, and the recording angel Well
knows that six of these are already
sworn for Cannon
No delegates worth speaking of any
where between Gatun and Guaml That
is why we say this particular itinerary
has a fascinating interest for the philo-
sophical mind.
Nobody at all acquainted with either
can be made to believe for one moment
that Mr.. Speaker Cannon, Mr. Vice
President Fairbanks or ex-Secretary
Shaw could be induced to thus cut
himself off from the American voters
until the next national Republican con-
vention has passed into history. True,
Uncle Joe is cruising in southern wa
tiers, but he is not out of communica-
ton with the boys for any consider
