He Essays to Dictate to the
People.

Our imperiouss President las gone
the limit in initiating the small bn'
d,ctaturial presidents in their repre-.
hensil,Ie methods of debating to tile
people the choice of a successor.
Not satisfied with forcing upon his
uar,y the nomination of Nr. Taft, be
u now engaged iu an lnseen'y at
tempt to dictate his election 10 The
people. He poses as the great Il Ana
aud prostitutes the exalted office To
which he has heen elevated by the
people, to cajole, influence or coercs
them TO vote for and eject his man as
his successor. No Dictator, vino has
not actually used military force f"r
the purpose, has gone 50 far as the
President is now going in his attempt
to force Mr.. Taft on the people. He
has violated all preeedeuts set by his
PREDECESSORS, ard has descended into
the Whirlpool of partisan politics,
drssgrg down with him the d'gnii,
of The high Office entrusted to his
keeping by the American people.
By his recent acts the President has
proven himself TO be not only siren
nous man, but a dangerous one as
well, for if the precedent set by him.
that the incumbent Of the presidential
char may dictate to h's party tnt
choice of his Successor and then force
upon the people the election OF the
man so chosen, rccgDize1 or tamey
submitted to by the American people.
then the republic is doomed. The CON-
ing of the end will be u question OF
short time. LII mav continue a re-
public name after it has ceased to ne
one in fact.
/ 1t has been truly observed that
eternal vigilance is the price of lib
ery." A grave responsibility rests
upon the American electorate IN the
present emergency. Roosevelt has ID
troduced new element into the pend
ing electoral probiem. II is a danger
Gus element which seriously alters the
problem. The question which con
fronts the electorate is no longer the
mple one. whether Taft or Bryan
should be elected, whether one or the
other of the two great national pait-
aes shall triumph, but the more NOM
entous and portentous one, whether
the Pres;den. OF the United States
shall be permitted to dictate to the
people their choice of his successor.
mbe President has been guilty OF
grave political ofrense. He has presum-
ed to drag the dignity, prestige ana
influence of his great office into the
mire of partisan politics, and attempts
TO force the election Of the man Of his
choice as his own successor. None OF
his prede cessors has ever been guilty
of such inso,ence and it remains TO be
seen whether the American people
will tameIy submit TO it or sharply re-
buke The bald egotism and vicious ID
of their President now at
tempting to play The role OF the "Man
in the Saddle"
Unless '.the Signs of the time faii,
we believe that the ambition OF our
strenuous and impetuous Iheosore
will be unceremoniously brought 70
grief by the defeat of his man, and
his objectionable aitempt at fi'esalissts
