LOVE VS. BIG STICK


win be quoted for years to come.
1t is this ability OF his to say just
the right thing at the right time,
which has made him the greatest
favorite on the lecture platform to-
day and which has aided largely in
making him the idol OF the people,
especially of the common people in
whose cause he is enlisted
No more beautiful or apt saying
ever fell from the lips of the Com
moner than the one he uttered Thurs
day when he was presented with a
large gourd, which mad grown in the
shape of the big stick, that formid
able weapon which the cartoonists
have placed in the hands of Presi-
dent Roosevelt and which he has new
er resented, but on the contrary has
seemed to take a great delight in
having the people think that he has
been holding a club over the de-
partments at Washington, over con-
gress and over the heads OF the great
corporations, with a view to fright
ening them into doing his bidding.
He has also given out the impression
that this big stick is to be handed
down to Mr.. Taft If he is successful
in the coming election and Mr.. Taft
has really put in bid for the weap-
on, hoping thereby 10 win the sup
port of the friends OF Roosevelt. At
any rate Taft has never spurned the
idea of his falling heir to the big
stick.
How different it all is with Mr..
Bryan. This presentation of the man.
moth gourd was really the first inti-
nation that he might pursue the tao
tics of Roosevelt By clubbing people
into submission TO h:s wishes and he
takes the opportunity 10 nip the in
sinuation right in the bud. In ac-
cepting the offer from the donors, he
stated that should he be elected tc
the presidency, his would not be a
big stick administration. He referred
10 the fact that the real service upon
the part of any one or any people
was prompted by love and not by
| fear. He who serves through love
does so with the whole heart, but hi
who serves through fear does sC
grudgingly. Henry Drummond, thu
great preacher and lecturer, declares
that Glove is the greatest thing II
the world" and Mr.. Bryan has dem
Ionstrated this in his private life
Never has there been a man in pub
lie life who has been so UNIVERSAL!
condemned and SO severely criticised
as had been Mr.. Bryan, yet through
II all he has hcaped love upon hi
accusers and his critics have fount
him gentleman upon all occasions
The result is that he is today tn
most universally beloved man in tn
United States whose honors do no
stop with the boundary lines of tn
United States, but whose fame 1
world -gfde.
Tbs expression that, II elected, h
WI rule through love and no
Lfhrough fear is characteristic of tn
A man. What a contrast between Bry
an and Taft. Taft only asks that h
be the heir to the big stick wit
which he can club congress and tn
departments at Washington into sub
mission to his wishes and Bryan re
! pudiates the idea that he will b
} guilty of holding a club over tn
head OF any one to make him d
fright. Herein lies one of the grea
differences between the two men VIII
aspire TO the presidency.

It's pretty tough on the Republican
managers to have their powder wet
by the United States court sprinkling
the Standard Oil fine so that the an
ti-trust issue will not even fzz. No
wonder President Roosevelt denounc-
ed the court looking at the matter
from his partisan standpoint. There
is no doubt the Standard Oil Is
guilty of accepting rebates, but the
Republican attorneys and Judge Land
Is were so anxious for a spectacular
fine that they overplayed their hands
and did not allow the jury to know
the whole truth.

Editor Appeal:

All Nevada has cause to felicitate
with Judge Norcross over the fact
that he won the prize offered for the
best reason why President Roosevelt
should he renominated. The prize
was won by a Nevadan. Some Of the
reasons advanced are unanswerable,
but some are subject to criticism,
principally from a Democratic stand
point Roosevelt has never been ell
ected president but once. and he was
elected vice president once as forci-
bly, illustrated by Judge NorcrOss. The
Roosevelt policies. so nuch applauded
by all honest men, are in process of
execution, and it would be like swap
ping horses while crossing the stream
to now change Roosevelt for any
other person. Roosevelt has no right
to 20 contrary to the wishes of the
great majority Of the people. The
foregoing are all most forcibly SET
forth and argued by Judge Norcross
But believe there is still bette
reason than any advanced by Judg'

Roosevelt; the Best Democrat

Norcross why Roosevelt should be re-
nominated: He is the best Demo-
crat the country has ever had in the
White House since Jackson. | believe
many democrats and not a few re-
publicans will keep on voting for
Roosevelt long after he is dead.
| believe the Democratic party
should also nominate Mr.. Roosevelt
for President. Why? Because it will
teach Republican senate that they
must not thwart policies approved of
by the country.
A little criticism may not be out
Of place: Judge NorcrOss repeats
what many other republicans have
claimed that Roosevelt is carrying out
the policies of Mckinley claim
that he is carrying out the policies
of William Jennings Bryan as enun
ciated in the Chicago platform-true
not all of them. but the best of them
