who would only De too glad 10 have a
chance TO vote for Roosevelt for Presi-
dent in 1912, and ! honestly believe that
he would carry the State" said ]. ].

and Is visiting Washington for pleasure

his nephew. Otto J. schairer. OF Pitts
burg. Pa.
Roosevelt is the most popular man
In Texas to-day, and not only the Re
publicans. but the Democrats. Confed-
crates and everybody else. just idolze
that man. He is strong and honest
man and has only the best interests Of
| the people at heart No honest man
need fear him or his policies. Those
| who preach against him have reasons 10
/ Tear MIN, because their interests in all
probability cannot stand the light OF
investigation. To claim that Roosevelt
/ is danger 20 the American people
ana the country would be 10 say that
me EFFORTS Of patriot for honest gov
eminent constitute a danger. Taft is
a good man. but Roosevelt is decidedly
! more popular. and as I said, I honestly
/ believe that Il he were 10 run for Presi-
/ dent In 1872 he would carry Texas"
/ Discussing state politics, Mr.. Schairer
said that the prospects seem TO favor the
election Of a Republican governor. and
possibly two Republican Congressman
There Is no doubt thar the Republican
party IS growing more in popularity IN
Texas every year. The prohibition aues-
/ ton win be an important factor In the
+ fall election. and I would not be sur
prised TO see Texas 20 dry" said Mr..
schairer. although COlquitt. the Demo-
cratic candidate for governor, has re-
fused to stand On q platform containing
a prohibition plank" Mr. Schairer said
that In his opinion Senator Bailey as a
political power in Texas has passed the
zenith. and that his disappearance will
be a question Of a short time only.
Business in Texas IS not so good"
! concluded Mr. Schairer. 1T has never
/ completely recovered since the panic.
/ Business il Fl Paso depends TO a great
extent on The mining industry, and II is
my belief that Heinze Was as much re-
sponsible for the panic as anybody.
Alfalfa Is a great thing IN Texas.
When the Elephant Butte Dam is finish
ed and the arid lands put under
/ irrigation. we viii be able TO harvest
/ five crops OF alfalfa annually"
The Republican ticket VIII be elected
in New York State. Notwithstanding the
predictions now made that DIX all be
/ elected governor, according 10 John n.
Gallagher, OF New York, who IS at the
Arlington. Mr. Gallagher is a practical
politician, and he owns TO being a Demo
/ crat.
Yes. I am a Democrat. but am not
( a Bryan Democrat" said Mr.. Gallagher
( Il believe in results, and Bryan never
/ resulted. The American people are too
sArewd never 20 catch on If they co
not catch on. il IS not worth catching on
! 10. and Bryan never was. But Bryan is
not in the lighting in New York just
/ now We have Dix. who is a Tammany
man, or. TO he correct, a Murphy man
/ II cannot be denied that Tammany doml-
mated the convention and dictated the
/ ticket If elected. everybody knows that
he must do the bidding Of Tammany.
+ This, more than anything else, IS dreaded
by the upstate farmers, who hate Tam
many worse than anything on earth.
/ Just 20 clear themselves Of the olium of
having supported Tammany man. these
upstate Democratic farmers will cast
their votes for stimson. the Republican
( candidate, preferring Roosevelt as
State boss 20 Tammany every time. An
other factor which VIII be instrumental
in electing the Republican ticket is the
cry now going up In the press that The
business interests are against Roosevelt
That IS the very thing which viii bring
! the labor vote 10 his side. for labor never
afflliates with capital In a political con-
test; at least. very seldom"
Otto S. Schairer, who is interested In
the electrical business in Piusburg. Pa.
in speaking Of Pennsylvania politics, said
that the Republicans viii not have q
walkoyer by any means in the Keystone
State this year.
Il am a Republican. but that does not
mean that / shall vote the Republican
ticket. / know many Republican bus.-
ness men who viii vote the Democrats
ticket this year. The Pennsylvania peo-
pie in general. and Republicans in par
ticular, are tired OF political bosses and
Senator PenrOse's dictauon. There IS d
widespread movement 10 smash the ma
chine and emancipate the voters from
political domination. We may not DE
bic TO do il this year, but strong efforts
] be made at every opportunity 10
iken the hold Of the bosses and finally
Throw them over completely"
Schairer said that Senator Oliver
great disappointment 10 his State,
Il IS the general opinion IN PennsyI-
that he has no influence at all in
ate.

his farm in some State larther North
and goes where the land is cheaper and
the soil more productive. The insetting
