Editorial
Opinion
His Manifest Destiny.

New York Evening Sun.
John W. Gates # is now announced,
is to become a bona-nde circus man. He
1t is noted. is tho promoter Of new
circus which will go on tour next sum-
mer and will represent an investment
OF I,500000. Perhaps Il Is idle to re-
mark that Destiny is not to be denied.
II has always been our private opinion
that Mr.. Gates had in him the makeup
Of one OF the best circus men in the
country. His career in Wall street. mark
ed by caginess Of the highest order and
ilamboyancy worthy of Tody Hamilton
himself showed what was I'm the man.
In a tentative sort Of way he tried var
ious circus stunts below the Fulton
street dead-line and got away with them
Personally he also escaped the wall
street district and the unfortunate IaI-
penings of last fall IN time to save his
bacon. lie has had the preliminary
training TO make him an ornament of his
new calling. He has acquired the evasive-
ness necessary on the part of real cir
Gus man who knows enough to jump the
town at the right time.
Certain ill-natured persons i'm Wall
Street We're wont TO decry the methods
OF Mr.. Gates when he was buying and
selling stocks. Recent events have
shown how ill-timed was their criticism
lie was really student when he was in
Wall Street. trying his hand there: now
he has acquired knowledge now he is
ready TO take the field and meet all
comers. His ambition is realized. It may
come TO pass that Mr.. Gates will be an
other Barnum. Barnum knew how to
bait for suckers. Mr. Gates may in time
be as great a master of the sport II is
unfortunate that emulators OF his Wall
Street circus methods have i'm the last
few months come TO .of with long lists
of liabilities. Mr.. Gates knew where to
draw the line. But Destiny was not to
be denied lie now owns a circus.

Margaret Strickland, of Newark
No man ever loved his mother more
than Wilson r. Jones, and while she lived
he was blind to the attractions Of the
pretty girls in his home town Such
tender feeling had the Sheriff for his
mother that he bought a church in which
she had worshpped to prevent it from
being desecrated by use of poolroom.

TAFT AND CANNON.

M ANY stories have been told of the relations
L 4 between Speaker Cannon and President
elect Taft. The latest talk is that the speaker
will be good and do as Taft wishes. This is
doubtful President Roosevelt has waved the
big stick in the House and kept Mr.. Cannon
dodging right and left The President has
been unable TO get what he wanted from the
House. and it is hardly likely that Mr.. Taft will
fare much better.
And if Taft lacks the aggressiveness OF Roose-
Welt he surely cannot do more with the House
than Roosevelt has done. The new President
could block with a veto, any legislation that Can
non and his cohorts might wish, but that would
result in policy of inaction which policy would
please the supporters of the speaker. The speaker
is a fighter as we'll as Roosevelt, TAFT and the
other progressvists. Cannon demonstrated that
fact when he and his friends forced the nomina-
ton of Mr. Sherman for vice-presIent

that everything is lovely between the speaker and

BRYAN NOT DIsMAYED.

II HOSE newspapers that supported Mr.. TAFT
n for President through compulsion-that is,
because they regarded him as the lesser OF two
evils-arc lecturing Colonel Bryan because the
late candidate is not discouraged, but intends to
remain in politics and to continue TO be factor
in the Democratic party. They declare that times
were ripe for Democratic victory, but that the
weight of Bryan sank the party at the election.
They point out that some States elected Demo-
cratic governors and rejected Bryan. Therefore
they argue that Bryan was weaker than bis party.
But they should recall that in some of these
States, like Ohio and Indiana the liquor question
complicated the political situation and aroused
more interest among the voters than the pres-
Dental election In Delaware Bryan was weaker
than his party, il the party's strength may be
Judged by the State ticket
The fact. however remains that Colonel Bryan
is not going to reti re from politics and he will
continue to be an important influence in the De
nocracy He and his friends can point out that
when his opponents had their way, as they had
four years ago with Judge Parker as the candi-
date, the party was defeated just as 1t was last
November
