Springfield Republican: That
quotation from Lincoln on criticism of
the supreme court, which Mr.. Roose-
velt used SO effectively at Syracuse,
yesterday, was Mr. Bryan's malnstay
for years when he was under fire for
attacking the court. The part OF the
Syracuse address which deals. with
this subject reads exactly like. a
Bryan speech Of the period between
1896 and 1900. Yet, at that time, what
were Mr.. Roosevelt's sentiments con.
corning attack on the supreme
court2 We must be excused tor beng
amused-decorously and politely amused
by MIR. Roosevelt's present haul
from Mr.. Bryan's OLD ammunition box
in defending his reflections on judges
and the judiciary, for it is impossl bic
to forget, In this connection, that Mr..
Roosevelt, in high state of ind1gna-
ton wrote II years ago:
Furthermore the Chicago convention
attacked the supreme court. Again
this represents species OF atavlsm
that is OF recurrence to the ways of
thought of remote barbarian
ancestors. Savages do not like an
independent and upright judiciary.
They want the judge to decide their
way, and If he does not they want to
behead him. The populists experience
much the same emotions when they
realize that the same judiciary stands
between them and plumber.

CHARGED WITH BIG THEFT
Former Teller Of Chicago Subtreasury
Under Arrest.

Chicago, Sept. 16.-George w. Fitz-
gerald, a former asserting teller in
the chicago subtreasury, is under ar
rest charged with the mysterious theft
of $4,000 from the subtreasury on
Feb. 10, 1907.
Fitzgerald was arrested on a bench
warrant based on an indictment re-
turned secretly by federal grand
jury Feb. II, 1910, and the existence
of which was suppressed by the fed
eral authorities.
Three days after the indictment
was secretly returned and suppressed,
on Feb. 20, it was announced that the!
statute of limitations had operated to-
stop possible criminal action in the
peculiar case.
Cotncfdent with this ruse by the
authorities secret service men were
detailed to watch Fitzgerald constant
~ and make a rigid investigation of
the former teller's financial interests
and affairs.
Discoveries made by these secret
service operatives resulted in the or
der for Fitzgerald's arrest.

Roosevelt wouldn't sit with
Lor1mer, and In less than twenty-four
hours sat with Boss Cox in Gin
cinnatti, a man, who could teach
Lorimer moro about political corrup-
ton than any man since Tweed s
time. Cox's influence is needed to
elect Son-ln.law Longworth to con-
gress, so critics say. But, as has
been often said, Roosevelt can do what
no one else can and still retain popu-
larity, Nevertheless with all his tre-
mendous Inconsistencies, his supreme
egotism, and dislike of all reform ex-
cept his own, he can do It ne wills more
good than any other American, oy
broadening the opinions of those who
believe in him.

After LaFollette carried Wisconsin
by three to one vote; Roosevelt said
that the legislature should obey the
popular verdict. Up to that time he
had never said or done anything to
help LaFollette. AS DR.. johnson said
once, "When I needed your help, my
lord, I did not receive it; now that do
not need it and am established I have
no use tor it," If LaFollette used such
language he scarcely could be
blamed. And If insurgent republicans
can nominate man for president in
1912 LaFollette would deserve that
honor far more than the Nimrod of
Oyster Bay.

Minnesota are progressive. They will

Beverly; = Mass, Sept 1e.-Nos differ;
ence between so called. "progressives''
and regulars will be recognized by
President Taft hereafter, but all party
leaders will be treated alike as Re-
publicans in the matter Of federal
support.
The presidents views to this effect
are given in a letter from Secretary
Norton to Republican leader of Iowa,
whose name is not disclosed.
In the letter Secretary Norton stated
that while important Republican legis-
lation pending in congress was op.
posed by certain Republican leaders
the president felt that his duty re-
quired him to withhold federal patron
age from senators and representatives
who seemed to occupy a position hos
tile to efforts to fulfill the pledges of
the party platform.
That attitude on the part of the
president ended, however, with the
more recent primary elections and
nominating conventions in which the
people have declared themselves and
the president now looks upon "pro-
gressives" and regulars" alike as Re-
pubIcans, and as such entitled to his
support and the support of the party,

TONS letter says, must settle the ques-
ton whether the differences of the last
session of congress shall be perpet-
uated or forgotten.

st Paul Dispatch: The Minneapolis
journal modestly admits it's god Judg-

points as Democratic candidate for
Governor of, Minnesota.
Little Falls herald. [volume] (Little Falls, Morrison County, Minn.) 1889-1950, 1910-09-23
THE REASON FOR IT.

Duluth Herald: Republican
managers in Minnesota have been
puzzling their wits for several years to
find out why they have lost this state
year after year, while the Democratic
party has been filing the governors
Office without any great exertIon.
They have blamed it to the primary.
election law, which clearly is not
guilty because it has nothing to do
with politics. They have blamed it to
this thing and that thing but never
to their own stupidity and folly.
10 put them out of their misery The
Herald, as a deed of kindness. will.
tell them why it Is that the Republic
cans have lost and the Democrats have
won in Minnesota.
It is because the Democrats have
gone out and pressed into service as
their candidates for governor men
whom they knew would and should
appeal to the people, while the Re-
publlcans have let their party organ
ization~ become subject tn the pulling
and hauling of self-seekers.
While the Democrats were seeking
out the class of men who never would
have voluntarily sought office and
practically compelling them to be can
didates, the Republicans have laid
themselves down as stepping stones for
men who have sought personal eleva-
tion and ends even less worthy than
that.
John A. johnson was pressed into
tho services thrice. John Lind was
pl essed into service once and the
Democrats tried to press him into
service again this year, and when he
was compelled to accept his reasons as
final, they went out and pressed
Jim" Gray into service.
While the Democratic party has
pursued the object OF putting up
worthy and deserving candidates. the
Republican party has allowed itself to
be the object of designing self-seekers.
The aggressive, positive party has
won; the negative, indolent party has
lost. That's the reason, and it is
offered to the anxious Republican
managers without price.
