SEES ROOSEVELT TO BEAT.
Texas Democrat-Says He Will be
Nominee in 1912.

According to Judge George Clark, OF
Waco, Texas, Democratic leader for
many years, the man the Democratic
presidential nominee will have to face in
1912 will be Theodore Roosevelt.
Judge Clark is at the Southern on his
way home from a stay of two months in
Wisconsin and Michigan In the old
days he was devoted admirer Of Grover
Cleveland and was nominated in 1892
by the Cleveland Democrats OF his State
to oppose James S. Hogg, who had won
the regular nomination.
Clark made the most memorable can.
vass in the history of Texas, but was
beaten. He long since has been forgiven,
however, and for years has stood high in
the councils of his party, as he stood be-
fore his tilt with the storm-tossed Hogg.
In the recent heated gubernatorial
campaign, Judge Clark set out to follow
the flag Of former Attorney General r.
" Davidson. He had been selected to
introduce General Davidson at the open
ing Of the latter's campaign. There
was objection on the part of the David
son managers and Clark refused to have
anything to do with the formal inaugu-
ration of Dayidson's battle. He prompt
ly declared his allegiance to Oscar b.
Colquitt, and when the returns were all
in had the satisfaction of learning that

If anybody hugs the deIusion to his
breast that Theodore Roosevelt will be
easy to beat, let him rid himself OF the
idea at once, " said Judge Clark. He
is half Southerner and he has treated
the race and labor questions Just as
though he were all Southerner. With
Roosevelt candidate for the presidency
again, believe the Democrats would
lose Kentucky, Tennessee, Maryland
and Virginia and get a severe shaking
in Georgia
There is dynamite in that fellow and
the whole American people may as well
know it. His present tour Of the West
is part of the programme. He will be
ON the stage whenever his presence is
needed till the next presidential cleo
ton. All of us know what happens
when he is before the footlights.
OF course, those of us opposed to
Roosevelt will argue against third
term. The whole truth compels me to
say that the third-term talk will hardly
fit the case. II he was elected again,
he would only then commence on his
second term. His accession to the presi-
dency after the assassination Of Mr..
Mckinley was merely an incident. He
has in law and fact been elected Presi-
dent of the United States only once.
