THE ROOSEVELT CANDIDACY

In November. 1904, when the matter OF
possible third term for President Roose-
Welt was under consideration, he de-
clared that "undcr no circumstances will
again he candidate for or accept an
other nomination for president
Last Sunday night ex-President Roose
Welt announced n definite candidacy on a
progressive" basis, and Will take the
nomination If it is rendered him.
short time prior To this announce
ment Mr. Roosevelt made speech at
Columbus which surprised many Of the
rrogressives. even, by its radicalisrn, and
1t was thought this speech would materi-
ally weaken his chances for the presi-
dercy If he decided to come into the
field. The ex-president struck fairly
distinct populistic keynote when he ad-
vocated not merely n recall of the Judges.
but a recall also OF court decisions on
constitutional questions, maintaining that
the people should have the opportunity

A Word with the Governor.

According to a report from Lin
coin, Governor Aldrich Is nettled
over the failure OF the Taft forces to
include him In the list of Taft dele
gates to represent Nebraska in the
republican national convention to be
presented for ratification in the
republican primary. t
The Bee and its editor have only
the friendliest feeling for the gov
ernor, yet We see no reason why he,
after announcing himself to be op-
posed to- Mr.. Taft's nomination,
should expect to go on the Taft dele
cation. II we were having q state
convention to name a gubernatorial
candidate, and Governor Aldrich and
his friends were selecting a delega-
ton from his home county to pro-
mote his candidacy. they certainly
would put no one on II who was not
for him, and ready IL they won out
to stand on the firing line In his be-
half.
II Is true governors have hereto
fore been commissioned to represent
this state in national conventions.
but so have senator's and congress
me, although not all OF them, nor
even all the governors. The newly
enacted primary law, which was put
on the statute book by virtue Of
Governor Aldrich's signature, is
plainly calculated TO make II difficult.
II not impossible, for any one seek
ing nomination for any other place
on the ticket to stand at the same
time as a candidate for convention
delegate unless there is no contention
or contest whatever over the posi-
ton. II Governor Aldrich is for La
Toilette, or for any other candidate
for president, nothing prevents him
from offering himself for delegate
under any flag under which he
chosen to enroll But In this respect
the governor occupies no different
position than Senator Brown or Con-
gresham Norris. or every present
elective officer seeking reelection or
promotion.
II strikes us that the one thing to
be kept In view by all the party lead
ers In this state is, that to maintain
republican ascendancy, all republican
elements must be brought together
behind the ticket which the people
will be called upon to vote In Novem-
Der.

Those eight senators who voted for

proposed peace treaties with France
and Great Britain take the sacred
functions and traditions OF their Of

OF the United States can afford to dis
cuss the subject with the people on
the public rostrum, the senate may
feel perfectly safe in opening Its
doors.
Probably no treaty affecting this
country ever commanded the popular
interest that these compaets do. They
are essentially popular measures, In
sofar as compacts between nations
can be. They have been discussed
pro and con in the press and upon the
platform throughout the country and
carry a special weight Of interest to
every citizen who takes the pains to
think seriously upon the affairs OF
his government. The president, him
self. set the example of public dis

the senate refuse TO follow that
example?

0maha's New Postmaster.

Announcement that Omaha will
have a new postmaster in the person
OF John C. Wharton will. We believe,
be received generally with approval,
although the supporters of other can
didates will as usual indulge in fault
| finding.
Mr.. Wharton is a longtime resi-
dent of Omaha. He is an attorney
in good standing at the bar. He has
been active in all sorts of public and
charitable undertakings, and he
ranks among our substantial and
public spirited citizens Mr.. Wharton
has also been an energetic and con-
sistent republican. which in no way
detracts from his fitness for the Of
fee. III
Everybody, we believe, will there
fore agree that the installation OF
Mr.. Wharton as postmaster will no
ticeably raise the level Of qualifica-
ton and service. and help lift the
local administration OF the postoffice
to a higher standard. Senator Brown
is to be commended for seeking a
high class man in this appointment
II goes without saying that the
new postmaster has a mans job In
front OF him to restore efficiency and
discipline in a thoroughly democrat
lied institution, and make II fully
responsive to the growing needs OF
the community. This task cannot be
performed in a week. or month, yet
its accomplishment will measure the
success OF the postmaster. In work.
