TEDDY GIVEN DOSE
OF OWN MEDICINE

United States Senator Robert M
La Toilette, the pioneer progressive
OF Wisconsin, has blistered the Third
Term party movement with sizzling
charges made against the leader
OF that organization.
In the last issue of his weekly mag
azine. Senator La Follette declared
that Roosevelt is engaged with Geo,
w. Perkins, Steel trust magnate, and
others, In a form OF campaign con.
spiracy, which is founded on fraud
and pretense for vote catching, which
makes the stolen nontnation" fade
Into insignificance.
Here are some Of the indictments
brought by Senator La Toilette
against the candidate seeking a
third term:
RooseveIt's confession Of faith
Is a confession Of guilt.
Roosevelt Is In a conspiracy
with Perkins and others to catch
votes by fraud.
Third termer offered to let La
Toilette write every word Of the
platform II he (La FolIette)
would get out Of the race.
La Toilette refused, because he
believed Roosevelt to be a fake
progressive.
During seven years In the
White House, Roosevelt did moth
Ing to reduce tariff duties.
"How do you stand on meT
is Roosevelts sole test Of quail.
fication for a Progressive.
When Roosevelt became presl-
dent there were 149 trusts In the
United States. When he turned
the office over to Taft there were
10000 corporations in eomblna-
tions.
Roosevelt remains silent on
the oVercapItaizatlon Of rail-
roads and Industrial organlza-
tlons, because he otherwise
would lose the financial support
of Perkins, Mccormick and 9TH
er trust magnates.
One of the most important parts of
the article is devoted to attempts
which Roosevelt made to get La Fol.
lette to withdraw in his favor from
the race for the Republican nomina-
ton. The negotiations were carried on
through group of senator's and 9TH
ers friendly to La Toilette, to whom
Roosevelt intrusted the message
that If he we're nominated La Toilette
could write the platform, and that not
single comma of the original
draft would be changed.
La Follette's reason for his refusal
to go into the deal promises to
match in current interest Henry
Clay's "Pd rather be right than be
president" Briefly, they were that
Roosevelt was a fake progressive,
and that he would violate pledges
made in a platform as easily as he
violated his pledge against third
term.

Following a meeting here Saturday

Williamson, this city, ]. Wood Wilson,
of Marion and Hugh Dougherty, of Indi.
annapolis, authorized with power to act
for the bondholders and stockholders,
had concluded negotiations with the
Kokomo, Marion and Western Traction
Company, by which the latter would
purchase the M.B.&E. traction line in
operation between Marion and Bluffton.
The transfer to the Kokomo, Marion and
Western, it is stated. would be made as
soon as the proper court procedures
could be concluded.
The largest portion of the M.B.&E.
stock is owned by Bluffton investors and
on the basis of the proposed sale they
will secure practically the return of their
original investment, less the amount
necessary for the claims growing out of
wreck July 7, near Marion, which
threw the company into the hands of a
receiver.
Geo. J. Marott and John Holiday, of
indianapolis, are the principal fnanciers
back of the X. M. & w. Company, while
there are also smaller investors in Mar
ion, Kokomo and Frankfort.
Practically the same Bluffton parties
who own the MB.&E. also hold the
bulk of the stock of the Bluffton, Geneva
and Celina Traction Company and the
K.M.&W. also is negotiating for the
purchase of that line, and it is thought
if the deal of the NJ. &E. is concluded
there is little doubt but that the deal for
the B G. &C. also will be consummated
and that line extended from Geneva, its
present eastern terminal to Celina, o.,
to connect with Ohio interurban lines.

General Brown says he is afraid Con-
gresham Cox will rewrite the constitut-
ion if he is elected governor. 1t is safe
bet that Gen. Brown is the only elector
in Ohio who doesn't know that the Gov
ernor has no power to make any changes
in the constitution. The difference be-
tween the two candidates is that Cong.
Cox will endeavor to have the mandate
of the people given at the special consti-

out, while Gen. Brown will do what he
can to annul that verdict.
