Roosevelt, could not talk one way in
the West and another in the East,
denounce the tariff bill west of the
Alleghanies and praise it on the Hud'

and endorse him IN New York-and be
entitled to the name Of progressive.
The neglect to speak words of endorse
ment for Cummins and LaFollette
when they needed them and to take
their laurels without even thank
you, is condemned. It should be re-
called that during koosvelt's in
cumbency of the presidency he never
IN any way assisted the progressive re-
publicans, and on the contrary,
appointed bitter enemies of Cummlns
and LaFoIlette to Office. So that his
later performances are not strange to
those who have lmpartially studied his
career. There has been SO much criti-
cism OF the Saratoga resolutions, and
the Des Moines News, the paper
referred to, having declared them a
''staggerlng blow to insurgency that
Roosevelt now says that the resolutions
don't express his views. Yet he was
the absolute master OF the convention
and said he had the opposition
"beaten to FRAGILE. - Teddy's gym

is julius Schmahl, candidate for sec.
rotary of state on the Republican
ticket We all remember how julius
broke into print just after the passage
of the Payne-Aldrich bill and informed
the people of the Northwest that Min.
nesota had at least one congressman
who would not be apologizing for his
vote two years hence, and he regretted
that there was only one. Again, when
Mr.. Taft came to Winona and boost
ed" for Tawney, Mr. Schmahl swelled
up and said, II told you So" Then
Mr. Roosevelt came to Minnesota and
took a shot at the man who, according
to julius, had no apology to make on
his tariff vote, and julius said: "Oh,
Roosevelt is hot because Tawney
wouldn't let him squander all the
money in the treasury on battleships."
Then came the New York convention,
at which the "Old Guard" was scat
tered like chaff, julius made up his
mind he was in wrong, and he shout
ed: "Hurran for Teddy; didn't we
put it to Them" and ever since he has
been a vociferous Progressive, as has
"Me-Too-Eberhart." But the people

\ Ihe frlghtful tragedy Of the great
north woods is asdisgrace to- the state
Of Minnesota. We are advertising re-.
sources and the hardy pioneer goes
into the woods, takes bis family with
him, and prepares to transform the
wilderness. He has q hard and
difficult task. Only men vigorous of
soul and body presist in the work,
yet onlv by that persistence can those
broad lands be added to civilization 8
store, The settler has all he can do
to care for himself and family. He
cannot make the big lumber COM
panlns take proper care, he cannot
force the railroads to take precautions,
he cannot pay forest rangers. These
things are the business OF the state OF
Minnesota. This has been an unusual
and dangerous year. The large
period of drouth has made the woods
as dangerous as powder factory.
Given but a spark and wind and
the result is q veritable cyclone OF
fire. When it was seen that There was
no more funds for forest rangers,
could not some means have been
devised to keep them in the field until
danger was past? The Legislature
certainly would not have criticised
measures which would undoubtedly
have saved many valuable lives and
millions of dollars worth of property.
This would have been real coDserva-
ton, a conservation worth while.

Wheelocks Weekly: Says Gov.
Eberhart: II stand squarely upon
the platform adopted by the republi-
can party of this state. This platform
is clear, definite, comprehensive and
distinctly progressive.
SAID the st. Paul Dispatch, republ1-
can, the day after the platform was
adopted: 1T is platform notable
for what it skipped or straddled. It
urges no advanced theories, it ex-
presses serene and Indifferent middle
ground and IS content. In these times
Of freedom of opinion and courage of
conviction 1t is singularly lacking IN
both. To call it a fair statement of re-.
publican sentiment in Minnesota on
the most urgent question of the day
the emancipation OF the party from in
fuences that threaten its ruin-is
simply abused. The people of this
state have convictions on this matter
to which it was the business of the
convention to give expression.

Making Sure.

Some years ago there was a trial
for murder in Ireland in which the
evidence was so palpably insufficient
that the judge stopped the case and
directed the jury to return a verdict
Of not guilty.
A we'll known lawyer, however, who
wished to do something for the fee he
had received for the defense, claimed
the privilege Of addressing the court.
"We'l hear you with pleasure, Mr..
b." said the judge, 'but to prevent
accident We'll first acquit the pris-
oner."

This from the state republican plat
torn is becoming a little the worse
for wear: when the republican
party has been in power the people
nave been prosperous; when its con-
troll has been threatened or destroyed
disaster has come upon u.s." This is
not true either In whole or in any
part. The great panics and depres-
sions of 1875 and 1903 came when
the republican party was in power, and
was not threatened with loss Of power
On the other hand, prosperity pre-
vailed when the republicans were out
of power from 1885 to 1889. This
familiar bit of old party claptrap had
better be retired.
