WICKED DEMOCRATIC POEM.

Here's the latest, greatest cure-all
that you ever saw or smelt;
1t is sold and manufactured by old
Dr. Roosevelt.
1t will turn the nation inside out
and also outside in
And cleanse it of original and other
kinds of sin;
1t will utterly destroy each funda-
mental institution
And relieve the irritation of a USE
less Constitution;
1t will nullify the Bill of Rights,
eliminate the courts
And remove the worst excrescenses
from congress down to warts.
1t contains the well-known rene
dies in DR.. Bryan's name,
On the discovery of which still rests
Karl Marks fame;
The same that DR.. Debs prescribed
when sometimes candidate,
And one time peddled far and wide
by Bloody Brides" Waite
Those socialistic syrups that are
warranted to keep
In any kind of climate and to make
the patient Steep,
And recommended by the Pops" in
their once sacred cause"
To anesthetize the judges and to
paralyze the laws.
Then into these decoctions there is
poured with iron hand
Some strong imperial essence of the
Kaiser Wilhelm brand,
And next bromidian platitudes are
dropped into the mass,
Which is highly carbonated with
conservation gas;
Meanwhile is added Righteousness
until it's very thick,
Then it's brought up to the boiling
point and stirred with the Big
Stick;
And when it's done he bottles it and
furiously shakes it,
Then throws the patient on the
floor and chokes him till he
takes it,

ROOSEVELT ENDORSES TAFT.

THE far-reaching results of thi:
work done for the whole people
measure the credit which is rightly
due to the congress and to our able
upright and distinguished president
William Howard Taft"
This was the climax of Mr.. Roose-
velt's speech as temporary chairman
1t marks the elimination of a series
of Endorsements of the president
which was begun timidly and with
great circumspection at Sioux City
which grew more confident at ST
Paul, which amounted to a clean bill
of health at Syracuse, and which
now comes to us with an added spirit
of cordially
There can be no doubt about the
effect of this change on Mr.. Roose-
velt's part on the fortunes of the
administration. 1t means, without
any question. that Mr.. Roosevelt has
given over the notion of either be-
ing candidate himself in 1912 or
of helping any of the other progress
sive leaders. He would not have
said and done what he has if he
had any thought that the president
would not be renominated.
1t Will be source of some salts
faction to those who have been cri-
ticising the president that this
change has come about without any
humiliating condescension on his
part. AS Mr.. Roosevelt was speak
ing Secretary Ballinger was the hon
ored guest at the White House. AL
though the secretary has been the
real bone of contention between the
two. and harmony could have been
restored at any time by his dismissal
from the cabinet, the president has
stood out against every persuasion
and is still standing out. Predic-
lions that Mr.. Ballinger will be re-
quested to resign are now wholly
discredited.
1t is possible to gather some salts
lection from the thought, also, that
the compromises the president might
have made to conciliate Mr.. Roose-
welt have not been made, while sew
eral important concessions have been
made to conciliate the insurgent
leaders in congress. The presidents
present purpose with regard to both
the tariff commission and public
patronage is distinctly in recogni-
ton of the new leadership of the
west.
The president cannot but take the
deepest tisfaction in the turn
events have taken. Without making
advances himself he has brought the
strongest champion he could have to
his side. He has sacrificed nothing
of the dignity of his office to accom-
plish what many more sagacious
politicians would have failed at. 1t
will give the president not only more
confidence in his own position but a
new standing with the country. that
Mr.. Roosevelt, after conspicuously
ignoring him, should by the inevita-
BILE pressure of events be forced to
admit his mistake.-Des Moines

Hamilton's Flight.

While Aviator Hamilton yesterday full
filled the conditions governing the round
trip Night between New York and Phila-
delphia, by completing the aerial journey
IN twenty-four hours, the performance
was in some respects a disappointment.
The speed maintained was not as great
AZ that of Curtiss on his recent trip
from Albany to New York, Curtiss aver
aging J4S miles an hour, while
Hamilton averaged 501 miles Hamilton s
actual flight. however. was longer than
that of Curtiss' by thirty-ive miles, the
Hamilton flight covering lie miles. HamiI-
ton had intended. in addition to making
his way between the two cities, to make
detour to Yonkers and return to Gov
ernors Island. in order to beat Paulhan' s
record for uninterrupted fight, III miles
between London and Lichfield What
Hamilton actually accomplished yesterday
was an initial flight over a long distance
from one city TO another and return.
Furthermore, with the exception of his
final mishap. which caused him to depart
altogether from program, he followed a
prearranged schedule. almost to the min
ute. Finally, he maintained a course
which carried him without detection over
numerous towns and cities. 1t was this
feature of the flight that chiefly marked
IL as exceptional. This was real practica-
BILE air navigation, not fancy exhibition
flight, over prepared field, but a
straight-away progress from point to point
regardless of intervening conditions. The
lest of Hamilton's daring in yesterday
undertaking lay in the fact that for large
part of the time he was flying over ground

Every day new skilled pilot of the
air comes into the public view. A short
time ago Hamilton was virtually I'M
known Now he is filing the horizon as
not only the participant in the latest
record-breaking performance. but as an
aerial gymnast of exceptional daring and
skill. Probably in another month Hamil-
toms place as the bidder for chief honors
will be taken by another airplane manip-
ulator. Indeed, the meet at Indianapolis
has already brought a new name into
the lists. Walter Brookins, graduate
of the Wright school, yesterday estab-
lished a new height record by soaring to
a point 4,3S41a feet above the surface OF
the earth and overlapping Paulhan's Los
Angeles record by 2191a feet. When the
Wright machine was making its first sue
cessful demonstration of heavier-than-air
work two years ago and doubts were ex-
pressed whether the development OF the
machine was in itself sufficient guar
antee that the problem had been solved,
inasmuch as human skill must necessarily
remain the finally controlling factor, The
Star declared that the development of the
machine virtually guaranteed the develop
ment of the man to manage it. This has

Mr.. Taft and the Stump.

The President, it Is said. will make
several speeches in the middle west IN
October, intended to be of service to his
party in the campaign, which at that
time will be in full swing. 1t is an an
nouncement of much interest to both
Sides. Republicans should welcome 1t.
and democrats should take it into their
calculations. Mr.. Taft has shown the
qualities of good stumper, and on these
occasions should be at his best.
In his speeches last year, after the ad-
journment of the extra session of Con-
gress. the President took the tariff for
his topic, and championed the new law.
He did not laud it as perfect measure,
but pronounced it workable COM
promise obtained through much party
travail, and asked fair trial for it. Re-
publican objection to the measure was
not silenced. and has not since been
and elsewhere.
This year the topic, for the President
ard for all the republican spellbinders,
will be enlarged. The republicans are
going before the country on their record
up to date. They will ask Endorsement
not only on the tariff question, but on
the railroad question, on the postal saw
ings bank question and on legislation
touching conservation. They will not
have done all that was promised in the
platform of 1908. but they will have done
a good deal. and the voters will be asked
to consider it in its entirety as a reason
why another republican House should be
chosen.
Probably nobody accuses Mr.. Taft Of
cheek" Rather is he charged with a
failure to claim enough for himself. His
friends are of opinion that he takes
things too evenly and amiably. But it
is q fact that he has made his influence
felt for the best things at this session.
and that when the record is cast up
for campaign purposes he will share lib
orally in the credit of it all. If he does
not present his own claim on the stump,
it will be presented for him.
The President is his party's leader, and
his party is on trial. He wants his adj
miristration to go forward. II it is halted
IN mid-term, no man may forecast the
end. A democratic House would halt it.
That body would maneuver against the
Senate for advantage in the presidential
race, and the President, in the matter of
legislation, would be helpless.
So 1t Is that the President, having so
much at stake. will be justified If he
heads his party's list Of spellbinders, and
explains the situation in his own way
and asks for a favorable verdict on what
has been done. He belongs In the pic
ture. and of course his place Is the CEN
ter OF the stage

Conservation.

Mr.. Pinchot explains that no new party
is contemplated for promoting the cause
of conservation. OF course not Certainly
Mr. Roosevelt, who is a politician all
around and all through, would not lead
or follow a movement with SO little, II
anything. to support it, The only thing
conservation has to fear is being forced
out of its true meaning and position by
overzealous champions, who. either from
too great haste. or from inexperience in
politics. may make enemies where they
should make friends for the cause.
