POLITICAL COMMENT.
A Return TO old Methods.

Prom the New York American.
One of the cheerful prospects OF the
times is the revival In New Jersey OF
the old-fashioned political debate.
Memories are awakened OF the breath
less crowds that hung upon the lips of
Lincoln and Douglas.
There are suggestions also OF the NOV
ing of the republic when the peripatetic
philosophers of politics smote each other
with the hard fine-tempered dogmas OF
Jefferson and Hamilton.
The decadence OF logical debate in leg
islatiye chambers and on the hastings
has seemed TO bear an ominous relation
10 the rise OF machine politics and the
predominance of cash payment as con-
vlncing argument.
The decline OF clear ideas in political
controversy has been accompanied also
by an over-emphasis of the Importance
of noisy individuals.
II we are TO perpetuate government
by laws and not by men. we mus: have
politics Of ideas rather thar or per-
sonalities.
And the old-time wrestle OF free minds
must once more stir the intellectual
passion OF multitudes and settle the tense
Issues of public policy
Thus there is exhilaration in the news
that Woodrow Wilson has challenged his
opponents and gainsayers TO meet him
before the peopie-in open debate

You may put It down as a safe bet
that Roosevelt Is going 10 fight as he
never fought before TO win the election
this fall No one realizes better than
he does that losing il means his elimina-
ton as a political power IN New York

dental candidate IN 1912. No one knows
as a certainty that Roosevelt will be g

corae means either one thing or another.
II Roosevelts ticket wins there can be
only one result, and that is that the
colonel viii be the logical candidate for
the Presidency in 1872 II he wins. Il
should be remarked he has won a notable
and extraordinary fight. with leaders or
his own party almost openly fighting aim
and the majority OF the newspapers OF
the state against him. If he wins. IL
must be conceded. in all justice. that his
hold on the masses is greater than his
most enthusiastic admirers would have

He is five feet nine and a half inches in height and at tine pres ent time is weighing just under ITO. cle, but he says that he will be willing to give that up if he can make good with the Rose City team.
 In '0S, just after he graduated, he was taken on by the Dayville team of the Eastern Connecticut league He was regarded as very much of an ex- pertinent by many fans at that time, but when he got his chance he showed 'em. It was late in the season when they decided to take a chance on bis pitching, yet it was early enough for him to win five straight games and the best hitters in the league were made the victims of his curved diplo- macy. At , the end of the S season son .,in ne Things did not run smoothly in Day vile, however and last year he was by agreement allowed to go to Putnam.
 Roy can swat the ball on the nose played with and. thereby has some thing on most of the slab artists.
 He Is so well appreciated up in Wfndham county that he was engaged as a trial pitcher for the select Pom fret school team last season, and much of their success was due to his efforts Incidentally. a Pomfret school team once figured on the wrong side of a no-hit, no-run game that he pitched against them while he was wearing g the eolors of Killingfy High.
 Tn a word, Reach is a nice little pitcher. He has been getting better every season and should be good enough this year to make things sizzle on the virgin circuit of President Dnnn's organization.
 DayviIle wants him back again this year, but Roy says it is Norwich for him if he can land and the chances are that he will.
