Word Accepted as Final.

Mr.. Roosevelt has uttered in public and
in private with emphasis that he would
not again be a candidate for a third term,
and the people had reason to accept his
word as final. Now, by artful interpreta-
ton of his own words, he proposes to
take another cup of coffee. This is the
work not of the Roosevelt of former
years. but of the Roosevelt who, for some
reason, has become intoxicated with ego
tism. Remember, dear people, that Ma
poleon began as democrat and ended his
career as tyrant.
ITO go back on a friend. All, there is
another rub. This is little short of being
culpable. Deliver us from that strange

Democratic politicians expect to see an

RAPED BY CLERGY
Former President Roosevelt
Criticised in Sermons.
CONTEST FOR THIRD TERM
Rev. DR.. Radcliffe and Rev. DR..
Montgomery Make Comparisons.

The third-term aspirations of Col Theo-
dore Roosevelt were assailed by two
Washington clergymen yesterday in SER
mons from their -pulpits. A crowd that
| filled Metropolitan Memorial Methodist
Episcopal Church last night applauded
when Rev. James Shera Montgomery,
| the pastor. criticised Roosevelt in an adj
| dress on insurgency and the Day of
| Unrest"
The other criticism Of the former Presi-
dent came in sermon delivered by Rev
DIR. Wallace Radcliffe, at the New York
Avenue Presbyterian Church. He COM
| pared Col. Roosevelt to Ahab, a king
of the Israelites. who caused the death
of Naboth in order to secure the latter's
vineyard.
Dr. Montgomery compared Roosevelt to
Brutus and Cassius. who double crossed
julius Caesar after making great pre-
lenses of friendship. The speaker la
mented that the colonel had done vio-
lence to the great unwritten law which
prevails in the big, free west the

Crime of Reputation.
He said:
The grandeur of our country is not
in the bigness Of our domain. but in her
intelligence, integrity and industry, where
every man has right to happiness and
chance in life. That conditions should
be improved in numerous directions no
one will deny: that we need some more
surgery applied to diseased spots is true.
But We view with apprehension what we
may term the crime OF reputation. To
stir up class hatred for political prefer
ment is very little short of treason to the
flag. To juggle issues to get votes has
become fine art. So true is this that

no such state or condition as to demand
the presence Of Mr.. Roosevelt in the
White House for the third term. There
are other men who are just as highly
qualified in every way as he, though, of
course, this is incredible to Mr. Roose-
velt's way of thinking.
