ROOSEVELT'S FUTURE.
From the Atlanta Journal

from the Atlanta journal
Predictions are plentiful that Theodore
Roosevelt will be a candidate for the
Presidential nomination before the ap-
preaching Republican convention. The
doughty colonePs recent editorial in the
Outlook, written in the first person by
himself, upon chaotic conditions Is
freely taken as an implied declaration OF
his candidacy. The assumption and the
prediction have injected some real inter-
est into national politics, which have been
rather dull recently with everything con-
ceded to the Democrats.
From the Roanoke Evening News
During his incumbency of the Presi-
dency, Mr.. Roosevelt declared that he
would not be candidate for reelection,
and despite tremendous pressure from his
friends and admirers he remained firm in
his determination. We do not believe he
has the slightest notion of running again,
and We have no doubt that at the proper
time he will make a statement to that
effect.
From the Columbia Is c. Evening Sun.
There Is some reason to believe that
ex-President Roosevelt will be a eandI-
date for the Republican nomination for
the Presidency next year. Some time Ago
there was a hint at such a course on
his part, and subsequent events tend to
confirm the opinion then expressed.

and one handsome parlor car, all TO be
shipped direct from the factory to his
