Democracy the Antidute.

Frequently since General Grant
was a candidate Tor third term
we have heard of the "man-on-
horseback as d fear OF what Will
som .tlme happen In this Re-
public. That dread has now selz.
ed the minds OF many people
through the evident intention OF
Theodore Roosevelt to make him.
sell master Of the Republican
party. rncy fear that ne is a
candidate for third term, and if
elected-tneh for fourth term,
and thus gravitate 20 the IN ,n.on-
horseback. This dread OF u-urpa-
ton by any man should not dis
turb any sensible person. The
patriotism OF the great majority
OF the American people would re-
bel against auy such attempt, and
any coterie or party who would
endorse such movement would
be smothered under an avalanche
of opposing votes.
There is but one danger to
guard against, and that could
only o. Imminent III consequence
of long war with some foreign
nation LII which d great and sue
cessfui general would be develop
ed, without whose Efforts defeat
would be probable; or ii defeat
occurred ne would seize the relns
of government III consequence OF
the exhaustion vi the civil power
following al overwhelming dis
astcr.
But there are no grounds for
fearing eucn a catastrophe. La
the near future it is probable that,
as the people gain more power,
both the army and the navy will
be reduced Instead of being iu-
creased as the Republican leaders
have long desired.
Those timid souls who dread
the future, and those who imagine
such a vain thing as usurper,
can rest assured that the great
mass of the people OF the United
States will STAND firm for the Con-
stitution and the laws based upon
it and Democracy wnicn is lound-
ed thereon.
