Roosevelt to Speak for Lodge.

Ex-President Roosevelt has been
very careful to say nothing during his
absence from this country. which
might be of service to any political
faction. AS might be expected, at
tempts to have him do so have not
been wanting. The announcement that
he will speak in behalf of his friend,
Senator Lodge. during the campaign
in Massachusetts is, therefore, not
without significance and naturally
gives rise tc conjecture.
Senator Lodge has never been suS-
pected of leanings toward the insur-
gents; and while the eX-PreSldent
NAV be found to differ with him as re-
CARDS certain political policies. the
statement. if true, that he will speak
in his behalf is pretty good assurance
that Mr. Roosevelt returns to this
country with the conviction he carried
away with him, that in order to
achieve good government in this coun-
try it is not necessary to assume an
insurgent attitude toward the major
ity of the Republican party.

People Taking a Hand.

The Republican state conventions in
the states of iowa and Ohio Indicate
the people are taking hand. They
have had opportunity out there to see
what an insurCent machine is like and
also To compare it with the regular.
Their conclusion is apparent; the Re-
publican voters of those states. belicv-
ing in heir party. do not intend to
have their conception of the needs of
their party and state and country OBJ
scured by the whirring OF machinery
they believe in their party and in Pres
id.nt Taft and do not intend that petty
local ambitions and fanaticism shall
undo them.
The Presidents recent visit evidently
Increased the peoples respect for him,
They became convinced that he was
doing everything which might safely
be done to secure the very things they
desire secured; that he is practical
man rf affairs, not visionary; that
he is reformer but doesn't propose to
break law or do more Of mischief than
he can os goo6 for the purpose of fore
in,; some particular reform to the de-
triment of others.
The spirit manifested at these con-
ventions was one which cannot fail to
make for united effort this fall, a
while ago it was said that Senator
Cummins declared he was entitled to
have Iowa send men to Congress to
help him, whether they were Republi-
cans or Democrats. That would have
been all right if it should appear that
Senator Cum.nins is of more conse-
uience to tho welfare of the country
than is the Republican party. Ii is
very apparent that the Republicans of
his own state are firmly convinced
that he is not. Yet they do not seem
to have been acrimonious in their eX-
preston of conclusions. Indeed. it
looks as though the folks had said:
