said: His candidacy, because of per- sonal relations formerly existing. can hardly fail to engender unusual political bitterness and create a breach among the republicans wider than rival candidates ordinarily produce, and in a year when the party will need it's full strength to win. No public exgency drags him into ths arena. There are no principles whose service requires his candidacy
 This gives clear idea of the situation. The Tribune does not admit in so many words that the split means the certain defeat of the party but that is what the Tribune believes. The democratic party with a safe leader, was safe enough to win with Taft as the opposed nominee of his party. With the split that will develop into an irreparable breach by the activl- ties of Roosevelt, the democrats are sure to win.
 The democratic leaders are naturally jubilant over the situation that has de- veloped in the republican party.

'hesitatingly deelafesahat there is only one democrat in the country that could probably defeat him if he were nom mated giving that credit to oscar w. Underwood.
 The preponderance of public senti- ment among local politicians is that Roosevelt's decision to enter the race, for President is not to be taken light ; ly. that he probably has better chance for the nomination than Taft and that Underwood is the best man whom the democrats could put in the field to oppose him.
 To others Colonel Roosevelt's an- nouncement of his candidacy means sure victory for the democrats, wheth- CT Wilson, Harmon, Underwood or any one else is nominated. They declare that it means the disorganization of the republican party, with the friends of Taft and Roosevelt lined up against each other in a serious combat to de- feat one or the other aspirant. es1
 The republicans of Montgomery have declared against Roosevelt This action was taken by them on last Saturday in their county convention in this city, when resolutions indorsing Taft were enthusiastically adopted, as well as res olutions approving the administration of republican party leaders In this state uring the past four years.

Edwin Brush, magician, has
come near disproving Lincoln's
famous saying by fooling all oi
the people all of the time for the

pie seem to enjoy being fooled,

magician is popular always, and
Mr.. Brush is plainly in that class.
Those who enjoy a wholesome,

see and hear Mr.. Brush. He be-
lieves heartily in the mission OF
mirth and holds that a laugh is
no less sacred than a tear.
Mr.. Brush comes with but one
assistant, but he brings with him
a large quantity of baggage and
stage settings that will please the
eye and add to the attractiveness
of the entertainment.
