WASHINGTON LETTER.

"T1O1AIlNOl OlN LII LIN
President Roosevelt, by his un-
equivocal reiteration of his cleo
tion night statement, has cleared
the political atmosphere and has
sharply defined the political is
sue which confronts the voters
of his party in the campaign
which is to end with the nation
al convention next June. Not
only has he repeated, with ad-
ditional emphasis, his assertion
that he will not be a candidate
and will not accept denomination,
but he has also, in his conversa-
ton with friends, made it per-
fectly clear that his chief pur-
pose in so doing has been topro-
mote the candidacy of William H.
Taft. He has further made it
clear that there must be a clear
cut division in the party, that
those who are in favor of the
continuation of the Roosevelt pol
icies will ally themselves with
the movement to nominate Taft,
while those who are opposed to
his policies will have to select one
of the other wouldbe candidates,
Hughes or Cortelyou or Cannon
or any other whom they may
choose. The President does not
attempt to dictate to his party.
He leaves it to the party to Sc
lect which candidate it may
choose, but he does say, in effect,
"You who are sincere in your
advocacy of my policies will line
up behind Secretary Taft. Those
of you who are, opposed to my
policies will line up behind some
other candidate. If YOU who are
for my policies would succeed
you must stand solidly behind a
single candidate and yourlogical
candidate is Mr.. Taft, who has
ldone SO much to help me in my
administration and who is a sin
cere and sympathetic advocate
Of those policies. For if you split
up and follow several candidates

The Sunday school superintend-

Three Sundays collections of the

next year puts an END TO the talk
of forcing him to accept. u
have not changed my mind, and
shall not" quoth he, and that
"shall not" settles it.
It is what the country had a
right to expect of him, and what
we have predicted more than
once in this column. We based
our prediction on two things
mainly, to-wit, the say-so of the
President three years ago, and
the allowing his bosom friend,
Secretary Taft, to go before the
country as an active candidate
for the chief magistracy. 1t is
not probable that President Roo
sevelt would encourage or urge
the great Secretary to announce
himself as a candidate if he him
self (Roosevelt) had any idea of
accepting the nomination. Men
do not treat their friends in that
way.
Moreover, he allowed some
weight to the anti-third term
sentiment. It is an unwritten
law of the country that two
terms in office suffice for any
man, no matter how great he
may be or how popular. Even a
George Washington refused to
accept a third term; and not one
of his able successors was given
a third term. Some of them had
to be satisfied with one term.
Some who served two terms
would have done better had they
quit at the end of four years.
Thomas Jefferson himself would
have passed down to history with
more lustre to his name had he
not served his unfortunate Sec
ond term. Mr.. Bryan is wise in
saying that one term in the great
Office would be all he could wish.
Many of us think that one term
for the great orator would prove
entirely too much. If we are to
have Bryan for a term in the
presidency next year would be a
good time to elect. him, for the
Senate surely, the House proba-
bly,, will be strongly Republican
for the four years of his incum-
bency. If in Office, none Of his
peculiar notions could be enacted
into laws. And yet, we would
rather see Bryan follow his pre-
sent occupation of orator and ag-
itator. For these functions ne is
we'll equipped.
How now? The Republicans
will rally around the great Sec
retary of War, Judge Taft. The
convention will nominate him.
On the first ballot the ''favorlte
sons,' will have a complimentary
vote; on the second balloting the
rush will be for Taft. Can ne
be elected? Sure. No other Re-
publican leader has equal pres
tige. Senator Foraker wants
the place, as he tells us; but f1is
.contrymen's wants are not CO.
incident with his own. Hewould
prove himself a good chief, but
although the country admires his
great ability it fails to admire
his sincerity. Better would it be
for the Senator to withdraw and
give more room for the more ac-
ceptable Secretary Taft. We find
Republicans asking the cutting
question, "What has Senator
Foraker done for his country
during his second term in the
Senator" Nobody asks such a
question anent Judge Taft.

 In addition to the coupons clipped from the Daily and Weekly Graphic, votes may be secured by sending or bringing to the Graphic paid-in-ad- vance subscriptions. During the peril cd of this voting contest, which will close at midnight Saturday, Septem- Der the seventh, every person bring ing or sending to the Daily or Weekly Graphic a paid-in-advance subscrip- tion will have the privilege of casting vote for the candidate of their se- lection for each five cents of the amount paid. $

The State Fair Association proposes to give the premiums offered by the press of Arkansas for increased cir culation and advertising and for the payment of delinquent accounts.
 The State Fair Association agrees to pay all expenses of the one most popular lady from each of the seven congressional districts in Arkansas, to and from the State Fair and dur ing the Fair This means railway transportation both ways from any point in Arkansas where the elected lady lives, her hotel bill at a first class hostelry during the entire ten days of the Fair, to furnish her car riage to and from grounds, and to generally entertain her with recep- tions, fetes, etc., during the Fair.
 Each of these seven ladies will in turn reign one day during the Fair as the Hostess and Queen of the State Fair, during the other days she will prominently participate in all the functions, as one of the honored court ladies in the retinue of the reigning queen.
 The Women's Federated Clubs of Arkansas are with the Fair Associa- tion in this great popularity contest. The Federation has . standing State Fair Committee who are even now sending out letters to every club in the State, urging them to see that suitable ladies are brought into the voting contests in each district, SC that We are sure to have State Fair Queens of whom We may all be truly proud.

UNIFORM IS NO SESAME
NAVAL OFFICER LOSES AGAINST
AMUSEMENT COMPANY.
Rhode Island Judge Holds Dance Hall
Proprietor Is Not Obliged to Ad-
NIT Everybody.

PROVIDENCE, r. l., April 20.-Chief
Yeoman Fred j. Buenzle, who was barred
from dance hall in Newport because, as
he claims, he was wearing the uniform
of the United States navy, can recover at
law only the price of his admission ticket,
according to a decision handed down by
William H. Sweetland chief presiding Of
ficer of the Rhode Island superior court.
The decision, which is long and which
overrules the demurrers raised by the de-
PENDANTS, says the legal rights of man
wearing the United States uniform are
not different from those Of any well-be-
haved person who possesses a ticket or
admission to any place of amusement.
The judge said the proprietors of
place of amusement are not under any
obligations to admit any person whom
they may choose to exclude.
Later suit was brought against the
Newport Amusement association, propri-
etors of a dancing pavilion at Newport,
from which Buenzie claimed he was eX-
cluded last September because he was
wearing a naval uniform. The manage
ment rendered to him the - cents he had
paid for his ticket, but Buenzle brought
suit for damages. He was given hnan-
cial support by naval officers stationed
at Newport and President Roosevelt
sent check to help defray the expenses
of prosecuting the case.
