that ex-President Roosevelt was
the cause of the defeat. They
say that wherever he went dur
ing the campaign defeat follow
ed his efforts. His own state of
New York rebuked him sharply,
they allege.
Roosevelt was not the cause of
defeat anywhere. All the re-
verses would have happened if
Col. Roosevelt had remained in
Africa until the campaign was
over. Roosevelt, very fooIishly,
tried to brush back the tide, but
could not. No man could. And
the ex-president found out at
last that even he is not omnipi-
tent. Roosevelt may have alien
ated many Republican voters,
but may be he gained more than
he lost. The ex-president is a |
strong man, but not very wise.
He undertook a task beyond his |
ken and failed, and now people |
are trying to make of him a
Scape goat-pack their sins on

ness to die.
This will not kill Roosevelt.

ship, seemingly, has the trouble
of having more school teachers
than it wants. 1t would like to
get rid of one and the Board of
Education had it's second meet
ing today, to find a way out of
the dilemma, but with what re-
suit is tu US so far unknown.
Whatever it may be l presume it
will be as the result of the late
elections satisfactory to some.
Today Emanuel Hershey and
his wife, aged respectively 80
and IS years, celebrated their
sixtysixth marriage anniversary
at their home, couple of miles
west from here. Aged as are
these good people, the measure
of health enjoyed by both seems
to insure them years of life yet
to come. They have today eight
children, twentynine grandchil-
dren, and twentynine great
grandchildren living to bless
their memory and worth.
Our Presbyterian people have
re-roofed their church building,
and tonight install THEN new
pastor. This will be an event of
more than ordinary interest.
A son from Chicago and a son
from Indianapolis arrived here
yesterday to visit their father,
A. J. Hunt, landlord of Hotel
Palmer, who has been confined
to his room with sickness for a
week or more. Mr.. Hunt is get
ting better and it is hoped he
will be able to get out in a few
days to attend to his usual busi-
ness.
1t is useless to make any note
of the result of the election. Ev-
erybody knows the result. What,
may follow this landslide against
Republican rule is, of course, un-
known. There appears to be one
pertinent question, and that is,
did the party when electing its
ticket elect a Moses to lead the
party to continued success and
favor with the voters of the coun-
try? 1t seems people are hard to
satisfy. It sometimes seems that
adversely is a necessary factor to
satisfy some people. 1t is prob
able we have had too much pros
perity, and the time is ripe to
inaugurate a change. 1t is USE
less to make any extended COM
ment, and for the present we
forbear. We will wait and see
whether a party of negatives
will be able to govern progress
sive people.

The Late Landslide.
It's Causes.
BY LEO.

ber we met the enemy, and W,
are his-his in an overwhelming
defeat. 1t was as unexpected al
it was great. Many Republicans
feared common defeat, but few
looked for an avalanche. Itcame,
and now we must inquire for the
causes of such a big change.
First. There was apathy. The
Republicans had no great desire
for success at this time. In our
own state about two hundred
thousand voters abstained from
voting, and doubtless the biggest
part of this stay-at-home people
were Republicans. We think so
because the Democrats had been
for many months in a state of
expectation. They were looking
for a victory, and therefore it is
not likely that many of them
would stay at home. The Re-
publicans were apprehensive of
disaster to the party, and many
of them were Indifferent to the
success of the party. Apathy
was one great cause.
Second. The party had been
divided for months. The lead
ers appeared to come together
for the purpose of winning the
election, but the silent voter re-
mained somewhat disgusted. The
Republican host went to battle
in a divided army -stand-pat and
insurgent, and the natural re-
suit followed, a crushing defeat.
When the insurgent Republi-
cans began their opposition to
the Payne tariff law there'seem-
ed but few of them, but they
kept up such a din about it that
thousands in the country were
drawn in and made dissatisfied.
President Taft made an honest
effort to reconcile the hostile in
surgents, but his efforts only add
ed fuel to the fire. His Winona
speech on the tariff was sensible
and patriotic, but the effect was
to increase the dissatisfaction.
The insurgents wanted no rec
onciliation. They were so dis
gusted with the tariff that they
were much pleased with the pros
pect of wrecking the Republican
party, hoping that thereby the
Payne tariff law might berecon-
structed in favor of lower rates.
This variance of the party we
regard as the chief cause of the
defeat on Tuesday, the eighth of
November. United we stand,
divided we fall" is as true of fpo-.
litical parties as of nations.
The Democratic party divided.
in 1860 and had to be in the will
derness for fifty years. The.
Democratic party became united
in the late campaign and became
a victor an easy victor over a
divided foe. Let the Republi-
cans heed the lesson
After dividing once it is quite
a task to come together again.
1t takes time and astute leader
ship. The Democratic party re-
:. mained divided for half a centu-
ry. 1t will take time for the Re-
publican party to come back :
