THE, PRESIDENT AND THE CAM

Ii is undoubtedly truethat with th,
exception OF the furry OF excite
ment caused by the Hearst expos
ures OF Foraker and Haskell thi.
has been an exceedingly dull cam
paign. Hearst's exposures, il they
may be so termed. gave the redoubt
able Roosevelt the opportunity n,
no doubswas seeking to get into tn,
fight and put some ginger in it IL
took advantage OF the opportunity
and for a time it looked as IL there
would be lively excitement. at least
on collateral matters, up 70 the fin.
ish, and so there would have been II
Roosevelt had not retired as sudden
ly as he appeared.
General apathy took charge OF tn
campaign Immediately upon Roose-
velt's retreat. But why did Presi-
dent Roosevelt retire? Surely not
TO preserve the dignity which i,
the proper attribute OF she President
OF the United States. for like the lit-
tie boy he had played hockey hall
the day and his condemnation and
punishment would not be materially
Increased If he kept up the fun and
played It all day.
Surely not because ostensible Re
publican managers convinced him
shat his undignifed activity was do
ing Mr.. Taft harm. We imagine it
would be a most difficult task TO in
duce Mr.. Roosevelt he had made a
mistake, for verify he believes the
king can do no wrong. Is was sug-
gested that he was advised 10y those
who saw the harm ne was doing Mr..
Taft's prospects thashispersonality
coupled with his activity, was over
shadowing Mr.. Tait's prospects, and
that to one OF the Presidents self
esteem this was a very potent argu
ment in eliminating the President
openly for the remainder OF she cam
paign.
