THE BECKHAM THREAT.

The greensboro Enquirer and the
Kentucky State Journal, Beckham
organs, declare editorially, that il
Beckham can not be elected United
States senator, they favor the election
of w. o. Bradley in preference to
anyone. the boilers can produce. as
Bradley is a straight-out party man,
while the nominee of the boilers
would be no more regular than the
source from which he would spring
Meanwhile, We observe that Col
Henry Watterson finds the winter
climate of Naples-On-The-Gulf much
more salubrious than that of Wash
ington. Howbeit, he has no word Of
disparagement to say against southern
Spain, where he formerly. spent the
winters, although he seems to prefer
the United states just at this particu-
lar season to Europe.
Whether there is any relation be-
tween 1t and Colonel Watterson's re-
Gently published communications
ABOUT personal matters, here is what
the State Journal says:
"If Beckham is to be defeated let
Bradley be the man to do II. Nobody
wants anybody elected to the United
States senate from Kentucky who is

Amen Give US straight goods and

represent their parties fully and both

and out it infinitely prefers Governor
Bradley to a so-called Democrat who
would he the beneficiary Of the in
famous bolt"

CANDIDATES AND ISSUES.

Coupled with the confederation oil
The Suns deduction that all the re-
dictionary strength will be pooled
against Taft, especially in the south,
1t is gratifying to observe that the
Lexington Leader joins the Taft
forces and is fighting side by side
with The Sun for the administration.
Fairbanks has friends in Kentucky
and personally is a charming man,
and if 1t was fight between Taft and
FAIRBANKS for the presidency, there
night be a chance for a contest; but
Since the issues have so shaped them
selves, that re contest now on for
the presidential nomination, involves
the integrity of the Republican party
Itself, there can be no hesitancy on
the part of loyal Republicans in
choosing between them.
There can be only one possible
Issue in the approaching compaign,
and that is the record OF the Republi-
can party. 1t will be on trial before
the people and not even the ramblings
OF William Jennings Bryan can
change that fact. The record of the
Republican party for the last eight
years has been the record of the
Roosevelt administration. II woull
be absurd, II it would not be fatal. for
the Republican party to indorse the
administration Of President Roosevelt
and then nominate for his successor.
man known to represent interests
that have fought and denounced the
president for the conduct OF his adj
ministration and the policies he has
espoused. No man, who does not
measure up to the Roosevelt standard
or who is suspected of reactionary
tendencies can be elected president.
There isn't free newspaper in the
United States or an oBservant citizen
who does not know this; but the in
terests that are fighting Roosevelt ar,
not Republican-are not Democratic.
They are out to defeat anybody, who
dares to interfere with or resist their
methods.
As evidence of this, the Mountain
Advocate of Barbourville and other
papers that are supporting Fairbanks
are openly attacking the administra-
N more viciously than is the Demo-
D1Ac press. That kind of tactics
can not win. Kentucky Democrats
just had such an experience, when
the speeches used in their state pri-
mary were turned against the nomi-
nees by the Republicans. 1t won,
do. If one can't support the admins
tration, he had better join the Demo-
Gratis, for the administrations record
will be the issue. and those. who can
not indorse it, can't support ii.

signal scarcely an hour before the
action was planned to take place"
The same old story. The Latin
idea. of a revolution is a carefully
elaborated plot. beginning with the
murder of somebody they don't like
Personal hate and blood revenge,
rather than martyrdom for a prin-
'ciple. characterizes these abortive rev.
|olutions. When a whole people feel
deeply, and, there stirs within them
an impulse to seek freedom and jus
tice, they move with the resistless
patient, memorable motion of the tide.
Premonitory swells may be harmless
and futile, the white spray may be
dashed aside, but the great volume
rises and rises until its purpose Is
performed. So, revolution is ac-
complished, not by murder ana
rapine, but by an irresistible. divine
ly directed movement. Instead of
those, who stand in the way OF 1t
being slain, more likely the leading
spirits Of the revolution, the topping
spray of the swells that ride the tide,
will be destroyed. Great causes do
not always require martyrs, but they
require the martyrs spirit.
II is unlikely that the illiterate,
ignorant masses of Portugal know
what freedom under the law Is. Tho
revolution was revolution of Repub-
lican leaders, men who would be
leaders of monarchial party, if they
did not lack certain elements of con-
servatism and strength, the lack of
which untitled them for rule. They
were discarded by the law OF natural
selection, and being possessed or
qualities of leadership, they form the
opposition to government. That is
all.
