A PROSPECTIVE POLITICAL ISSUE

The renomination of Theodore Roose welt for another presidential term would shift the political issues, concentrate the thought of the country on the sin gle issue of a third term, and again sharply divide the parties. To evade this issue the third termers have in vented the phrase "second elective tern" which they put forward to har- monize the third term tradition. The distinction between third term and a "seeond elective term, under the con ditions of the present case, is not inn pressive, and it is doubtful if it would appeal to any considerable number of voters already committed to the tra. ditional limitation of the presidential term. From any point of view the re- nomination and reelection of Mir. Roosevelt would smash precedent. No president has yet served eleven years and five months consecutively, or in any other way; nor has any presiden- tial candidate been nominated for a "seeond elective term," after serving three years in the presidency, or for a third term. So that in the event of MT Roosevelt's s candidacy the voters of tho country would be called upon to decide whether the traditional limitation of the presidential third term should bt ignored or respected.
 Such an issue would give the Demo cratic party the opportunity for whicl it's leaders are now so eagerly looking Certain shrewd observations of MT Bryan indicate that he is fully alive t this aspect of the third-term movement

It would be an issue upon which the Democratic factions could unite as upon no other. Our old friend Colonel Wat terson, would no longer be headlned as political pessimist. The pen that i'm mortalized the star-eyed goddess of re- form would come to the defense of the country against Mexicanization apd i'm perialism. Voices that were silent when l6 to 1 was abroad in the land, or that do not attune themselves cheerfully to government ownership or federal regu- lation would awake and resound in the presence of new and thrilling para mount. We should even hope to heal the mellifuous, though reluctant, notes of John Temple Graves chanting the lay of Democracy, the sway of the de mons, inspired by "third-termish Cae sarism, <" as Thomas Mast dubbed it ir Grants time.
 Would it be a winning issue' Third term sentiment astUnishes us by ap bearing in the most unexpected quar- ters. We hear of it north, south, eas and west, in all parties and among al sorts and conditions of mon. Perhap the people are prepared to smash pre- cedent, and it is conceivable that tn third term issue might be as effective il rallying support to MT. Roosevelt as would be in consolidating the forces O the opposition. At all events, it woul' add zest and novelty to our somewha outworn political controversies, sharpen ing party differences, and offering new alignment to the pe-plexed voter of all shades of opinion. But it is ye too early to forecast its value as part asset. Washington Herald.

RANGER HOLMES IS INDICATED
Investigation of Alleged Cruelty to Me- gro Murderer Shows that Roosevelt Ranger Did Not Treat Baldwin with Extreme or Any Brutality.

Regarding a story which appeared first in Stafford paper concerning Ran ger Holmes alleged brutality to Will liam Baldwin, the Roosevelt murderer, the Phoenix Republican says:
 A story was placed iD circulation some time ago and found its way into print in certain quarters, very dispar' aging to the reputation of Ranger Holmes, the officer who arrested Will. liam Baldwin near Roosevelt, when sus- picion lodged against him as being gull ty of the murder of Mrs. Harvey Nor ris and daughter, and for one of which crimes he has since been convicted and sentenced to be hanged. It was charged that he maltreated his prisoner, dragged him by the neck with rope and other wise abused him in most inhuman way. The charges soon found their way to the governor, who proceeded to investigate them. He referred the mat ter to Captain Wheeler for report and at the same time requested the recla- nation officers, who are very largely in charge of affairs at Roosevelt, to inquire into the charges and report as matter of mutual interest in good government and good order. The re- quest was forwarded through the office of Supervising Engineer Hill, to Con structing Engineer Smith at Roosevelt. That official reported to his superior and copy of his findings was transmitted to the governor. It is now made pub lie and is as follows:

 Dear Sir:
 In reply to yours of April II, enclos ing copy of letter from Captain Wheeler, I would say that Ranger Holmes was not guilty of any extreme or any brutality to the negro Baldwin Any report that he was guilty of sucl is a gross and willful exaggeration.
 Immediately after finding the bodies Holmes went for Baldwin, who was il the yard adjacent to the house occupied by c. P. Hill. Baldwin was rather ob stinate and did not seem inclined tc submit to arrest; moreover, he had { shotgun standing close at hand Holmes hit him once or twice with light til dipper over the head, and I think h, knocked him down with his fist during the process of handcufiing him. Afte the arrest was effected Holmes did no hit him. Holmes put rope around hi neck and started in to Roosevelt at pace only equal to what man woult

 On the way to Roosevelt Dr. Pennell joined them and made an examination of Baldwin. Baldwin, in his struggle with the Morris woman, and received cut in the neck, and considering that this wound might become infected from contact with the rope, Dr. Pen nell suggested to Holmes that the rope be put around Baldwin $ waist, instead, which Holmes did.
 I saw Baldwin as he was entering Roosevelt, and he showed not the slightest evidence of having been dragged. or even hurried, on the way | Any report to the diseredit of Holmes undoubtedly originated with some en' emy, such as any efficient man in tho position of holmes would be sure tC have.
 I would add further that Holmes is . most efficient man.. and one whom th' law-abiding part of the community would like to sec held up in every way It strikes me that the affair is scurri lous attack upon one of the best men oi the force. Yours very truly,
