DESERT ROOSEVELT
IN ILLINOIS THIRD TERM sENTI.
MENT Is STEADILY DE-
CREASlNG.
FARMERS AGAINST CHANGE
Reports From All Sections Are to the
Effect That Republicans Have
Determined to Remain. Loyal to
Party.

Chicago. Sept 27.--Polls which are
being received at the headquarters of
the Republican national committee in
dicate that the third term candidate
Will not receive on election day any
thing like the support given him in
the primaries. when he was a Repub-
lican seeking the nomination of his
party for the office of president.
These figures are confirmed by state
ments published in newspapers In va
rious parts or the state. by letters re-
ceived at the headquarters and by ILL
nois people who visit Chicago and
express their opinions on the political
situation.
Rev. Clark 8. Thomas Of Elgin. who
has travelled through the state from
East st. Louis to Vincennes and from
Springfield to Centralia, was emphatic
In his assertion that the Roosevelt
sentiment In illinois Is disappearing.
When former Senator William f..
Mason. nominated at the primaries for
the position of Congressman t-large
from Illinois. recently returned from
a speech-making tour he reported that
the Roosevelt sentiment was waning
In the localities which he had visited.
Roosevelt Losing Supporters.
Il have been all over the state Of
Illinois. addressing Chautauquas.
homecoming rallies and farmers pic
MICS. and everywhere I went met the
admission that Mr.. Roosevelt Is los
Ing supporters" said Mr.. A. G. Ran
kin OF Chicago. Large numbers Of
people believe he Is organizing his
movement merely as an aid to elect
Wilson and defeat Taft. and they re-
fuse to be party to his treachery."
II have just returned from a tour
through some of the counties of ILL.,
nois." writes Henry l. Nowlan. a
prominent attorney Of Peoria. ILL.,, to
the Taft headquarters In this city.
and I find that the third term senti-
ment Is on the wane.'
Change Among Farmers.
Republican conditions have I'M
proved In my section Of Illinois more
than Is per cent. since I was here
two weeks ago." says Mr.. w. w.
Clark of AURORA, ILL.,, formerly labor
editor Of the Chicago Inter Ocean and
now editor of the Aurora Sentinel.
The change is principally observed
among the farmers. They appreciate
the prosperity which they have been
enjoying under Republican admins
tration and they are beginning to real
lie that a change to Democracy means
an end to their good times. The trend
toward President Taft is plainly ap-
parent"
Pledged to Republican Ticket.
81 cannot speak for other parts of the
state" said Mr.. w. e. Wire of Hebron,
ILL.,, while In Chicago recently. "but l
know that In my precinct Roosevelt
will not poll one per cent Of the vote
which he received In the primaries
last spring"
Mr.. Wire was formerly chairman Of
the county committee Of McHenry
county. and is now a member of the
county committee.
While there are some sections in
the state where the Roosevelt senti-
ment continues to manifest itself, the
fact that 1t Is generally disappearing
Is proven beyond a doubt.

BY OSWALD r. scHUETTE.


The Roosevelt sentiment In the
states west of the Mississippi river Is
waning fast. The Taft strength Is
growing, although weakness In the or
ganization In many states has pre-
vented the Republicans from taking
full advantage of the situation. The
Wilson forces are still confident OF
victory, but the fading of the Roose-
velt strength has turned the brunt OF
the fight against the Democrats. and
fear of free trade and Democratic
hard times Is turning the tide to Presi-
dent Taft.
This Is the present situation, as
viewed from a careful personal inves-
tigation of the political conditions that
prevail In the wake Theodore Roose-
velt's tour of the west. 1t can be sum-
med up also In another sentence.
Roosevelt has scarcely won "a vote at
any point on his trip. He has had
large audiences. but none Of them has
been as large as he had on either
Of his last two trips through these
states. Compared to last springs pri-
mary campaign. or his tours Of other
years. the meetings have been dis
heartening In their coldness This ac-
counts for the reports Of angry inter
Iudes that have been frequent accom-
paniments of his speeches. This rep
resents a great change In the sit
uation since the middle Of August.
Gained No Converts.
What cheering and applause has
greeted the colonel on his present
tour has come from men already COM
mitted to his cause. In no city visit
ed on his course has there been a re-
port of new converts gained. In al
most every instance the reports were
unanimous that he had hurt himself
and his cause either by his dictatorial
manner toward his audiences. his
angry treatment of the men around
him and the hosts who tried to show
him hospitality, his theatrical stage
tricks. or his Kaleidoscope changes Of
opinion concerning the issues.
Weakness Of Roosevelt Emphasized.
The weakness of the Roosevelt
cause was emphasized by the meet
lngs which greeted John Maynard Har-
Ian ana j. Adam Bede. who are still
on the coionel's trail. At each stop
they made they we're told by Repub-
leans, Democrats and Roosevelters
alike that the Roosevelt meetings had
been anything but the rousing sue
cesses they had been expected, and
the colonel's visit had not won him
vote.
It was the same story throughout the
trip-in Idaho. Oregon, Utah, Nevada.
California Arizona, New Mexico, Colo
RADIO and Nebraska. Everywhere the
Roosevelt leaders appeared disgrunt-
ed, the Taft leaders we're jubilant and
the Wilson forces fearful of the fact
that the campaign was turning against
their own candidate.

Roosevelt Weak In Utah.

There is no doubt that Mr. Taft

Negro Bound Over to the District
Court.

Minot.-Gust McClaren. the negro
who was arrested some time ago on
the charge of shooting . policeman at
Burlington. Iowa. was bound over to
the district court under $500 bond on
the charge Of drawing revolver upon
frankie Worthington.
The Worthington woman testified
that McLaren came to her house on
West First street, woke her up and
said he would kill her IL she did not
come along with him. She says she
left the house, followed by McLaren
with the revolver, and the two went
to the old 500 depot, where she got
away from him and called Officer Full.

attorney. testified that hs asked the
Worthtngton woman for money which
he advanced her and only threatened

tional situation. He has passed over
the state question with scant mention.
Mr.. Hanna has also been on the stump
this week and has had slight advan-
tage over other candidates in the fact
that his addresses have been made at
county fairs, where the crowds have
been good.
Progressives Confident.
That the progressives have every
confidence in their ability to carry
the state for Roosevelt is indicated by
the statements of State Chairman
Dorr Carroll. He says they have re.
'ceived assurances of support from
many quarters and is particularly op-
timistic over the outlook for the ma
tional ticket. He has announced that
Hiram Johnson, the vice-presidential
nominee, will be in the state the lat
ter part of October.
A feature of the campaign this year
is the silence of county republican
committees on the national situation.
None of them is boosting for the ma.
tional nominees, but all are devoting
their energies to the election of
county tickets and the state candi,
dates. This situation, it has been ex.
planned by county committee officials,
was created by the state committee in
the adoption of its resolution at the
Bismarck meeting, when it was declar.
ed that allegiance to President Taft
was not necessarily test of party
fealty.

oaksd. The local police have a theory
that annually within twenty-four hours
after the first snowfall there will be q
murder or attempt at murder in the
city. The belief has grown up dur,
Ing many years, the looked-for crime
never failing to arrive with the first
snow.
The first snow fell in Fargo at 6
o'clock Tuesday evening. Extra pre-
cautions to guard against crime were
taken by the police force. At mid;
night four shots were fred in house
at First street and First avenue in the
negro district and when the police ar.
rived they found Tandy in an appar7
emily dying condition with four bullet
wounds in his body. His wife, who
did the shooting, was arrested by the
police and is being held to await the
outcome of her act. Tandy is in hos.
Ipital and attending physicians despair
iof saving his life.
/! The police theory that crime comes
with the first snow has been borne
out for many years. George Kenyon
is serving life sentence in the state
penitentiary for killing a white farm
laborer on the night of Oct. 8, last
year, the first snow of the season hav.
ang fallen that afternoon.

shot and killed another negro in card
