The Republican. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1903-1909, 1908-04-11

The assertion that "the soverigl
people and not Theodore Roosevelt
the individual and public servant
will decide who shall be his sue
cessor," is so manifest that it vii
not admit of argument to the con
trary. The views OF the Presidsn
are entitled TO most respectful con
sideration, but they are not neces
sarily conclusive, even where the
question is whether he shall sue
ceed himself.
The position of the President re.
garding his own candidacy is we'll
known. Immediately following
the election in 1904 he issued a
statement to the people, which
statement he reiterated on the 11th
OF December last, upon the occa-
sion of the call of the Republican
National Committee for the con-
vention at Chicago. That state
ment is as follows:
II am deeply sensible of the
honor done me by the Ameri.
can people in thus expressing
their confidence in what | have
done and what | have tried to
do. appreciate to the full
the solemn responsibility this
confidence imposes upon me,
and | shall do all that in my
power lies not to forfeit it. On
the 4:h OF March next | shall
have served three and a half
years, and these three and
half years constitute my first
term. The wise custom which
limits the President to two
terms regards the substance
and not the form, and under
no circumstances will l be
candidate for or accept anoth.
er nomination"
There is no reason why the
foregoing announcement should be
accepted by the American people
as conclusive, simply because it
comes from Mr.. Roosevelt. If
there is room for a difference OF
opinion as to fact or reason, or
both, the good judgment of the
whole people must be, and is, de.
cisive.
The only custom that prevails in
this country regarding the term Of
Office of our Presidents applies to
elective terms. The President, un.
questionably, does not come within
the letter OF the custom. If the
custom is to undergo modification,
Mr. Roosevelt certainly has not
the right TO all the say regarding
that modification. Doubtless,
when Mr.. Roosevelt issued the fore.
going statement, he was prompted
more or less by modesty. For him
to insist, however, that the views
therein expressed are conclusive
would be the height of arrogance
1t is probably the fact that the
people do not care for any innova. ,
tions upon the custom in question.
The great mass OF the American |
people are we'll pleased with the
administration of President Roose. {
velt. They want him for two elec. c
tive terms, and they have the right G
TO say whether his re election will
be violation of custom of de.
batable wisdom. Mr.. Roosevelt /
has never been an advocate Of r

neither reason nor consistency in {

The Office of President OF the Unite,

unpaid Six hundred dollars Of the
cash sum on hand was loaned out in

they have raised thousand dollars
and think that this is good showing
for one years work. They wish to
see monument worth not less than
$2,500.00 erected in Laurens not later
than the summer Of 1910. They have
met with a great deal Of encourage
ment and substantial aid from the
business men Of the city and county
and appreciate it fully. However it
is hoped that all members Of town
ship committees and all leaders asked
to assist in the work, who have not as
yet reported to Mrs. II. b. Bell, will
do so at once. It is further requested
and urged that all who are down for
subscriptions will make payment at
once in order that the ladies OF the
Chapter may know definitely just what
they have. This statement is pub
lished in order that the public may
know what has been done for the mon
ument. The Chapter has set itself
the task of earning at least thousand
dollars more by the first of October,

Why Colds are Dangerous.

Because YOU have contracted ordi-
nary colds and recovered from th"m
without treatment of any kind. do not
for moment imagine that colds are
not dangerous. Everyone knows
that pneumonia and chronic catatrh
have their origin in common cold.
Consumption is not caused by Il cold
but the cold prepares the system for
the reception and development Of the
germs that would not otherwise have
found Judgement. 1t is the same
with all infectious diseases. Diptn-
cria scarlet fever, measles and
whooping cough are much more like
ly to be contracted when a child has
a cold. You will see from this that
more real danger turks in a cold than
