THE BOLDEST YET.

Probably the boldest political deal
that was ever perpetrated was that
which was made between President
Roosevelt and ID. j. Keefe. the labor
leader. Keefe started out to line up
with the democrats in the support
of Bryan in the recent election. but
he had not travelled far in that direc-
tion when he suddenly changed his
course, yea, reversed 1t. and support
ed Mr.. Taft. 1t was openly charged
at the time that he had been promis-
ed an appointment and the charge
has now been verified by Mr. Roose-
welt himself in appointing Mr.. Keefe
commissioner of immigration. The
old maxim the king can do no
wrong" seems to apply to presidents
as well as kings, To buy man S
vote and support with an office that
pays lucrative salary is no different
from buying il with a price in dollars
equal to the amount of the salary
except that where 1t is bought with
money outright the purchaser pays
the price himself and where it is
bought with an office the people pay
the price. II is a greater wrong for
president of the United States TO do
such thing than il would be for an
ordinary individual, Fort Collins
