Senator Scott elames Colonel for Los:
Ing Votes. {sesS II

70 /
The Democratic victory Is attributed
by Senator Nathan B. Scott, while in,
Atlanta recently attending the funeral
OF Senator Clay, to the blighting in.
fuence 'of Theodore Roosevelt. III
With Roosevelt hushed, Senator
Scott believed the Republicans would
have held West Virginia. lsl-
II will retire after March 4, 1911,
and be succeeded in the Senate by a
Democrat" said Senator Scott. THE
is Overwhelmingly Demo-
cratic. OF course, II am sorry the
Democrats won, but we could do moth
ing with Theodore Roosevelt on the
stump. Every time he spoke he cost
the Republican party thousands OF
votes. The people are tired of Roose-
velt and he should be convinced Of
1t by the result Of the elections.
1.-THE illness of Senator Elkins also
hurt us. Mr.. Elkins is seriously Ii;
his condition is alarming. We missed
his counsel in the recent election, but
even Senator Elkins could hardly
have saved us with Roosevelt on the
stump. II, :, Z Z. ri { + ~ s@t}
The people generally, Republicans
and Democrats alike, are disguised
with Col. Roosevelt. His undignified
activity cost us many votes in West
Virginia and beat our party all over
the country. ann glad he has been
rebuked, but sorry we had to lose, Z
Senator Scott openly expressed
pleasure over the defeat of, Senator
Beveridge, OF Indiana, and intimated
that the country would fare better
with the Democrats in power than
with Roosevelt Republicans.
