The colonel has always been man or

Ideals when addressing the public, but
a practical man like Mr.. Hartman when
that wizard of finance was desired 20
loosen up the money vaults of the Street;
an intrepid leader on the heights of San
Juan for the picture books, bur down in
the valley far away when the battle was
in progress; a erusher of trusts for cam
paign purposes, but the welder of the
chain that linked Tennessee Coal and
Iron with the United States Steel aor-
poration; an adept at intrigue when 1t
was desired TO exert a furtiye influence
az the Vatican. but preposterons weleh-
er when his scheme was exposed. II is
useless TO multiply instances. In nearly
every spectacular outburst OF patriotism
which has marked his career we find a
shifty, insincere deed 10 contradict and

From the Detroit News.
This talk of a Roosevelt dictatorship,

organs. is the silliest sort Of rubbish. II
is not even possible for a man 10 secure
election 10 the Presidency until he has
the consent OF about S.o00.oo0 citizens of

by which he could maintain himself in
that Office would be by giving the ma
jority Of the people so satisfactory a
government that they would esteem him
above all other aspirants for the honor.
The citizens Of the United States are
more and more determined that this shall
be a government OF the people, in spirit
and in fact. as well as in theory. and all
