With the elimination of Roosevelt,
President Taft of course gains Il dis
tinct advantage.
Hitherto the menace of Roosevelt
has led many Republicans to announce
that they proposed 20 vote for Wilson
in order to insure the overwhelming
defeat of the ambitious third termer
These Republicans are now declaring
that they viii support Taft Former
Representative Duncan f. Mckinley,
of California, is authority for the
statement that there has been a revo-
luton in this respect in his state and
similar assertions are made by well
informed men IN other states.
This is one of the conditions upon
which President Taft based his con-
fident prediction of victory, issued in
statement from him during this
week.
There is ample ground for his OPP
timism. II is shared by the campaign
managers who are acquainted with the
ground swell that is moving in his di-
rection. They know that there is a
growing feeling that present prosper
;ty ought not to be threatened by a
change of administration. They know
that the silent vote--the vote repre-
sented by business men and by farm
ers and manufacturers who place
commercial and financial security and
progress above politics-.is turning to-
ward Taft. They know. too, that Prof.
Wilson's candidacy is not exciting any
enthusiasm. AS a matter of fact, Prof.
| Wilson was foolish enough to talk free
trade TO the farmers i'm Minnesota and
| they are wondering where they will
| land If he should be elected. All these
| things are putting backbone into the
fight for Taft.
II is with the feeling that as In
1896 the people will steady down and
decide for business stability and safe
government and that President Taft's
recollection will be the outcome, that
| the campaign managers have pushed
| the campaign this week with great
| forcefulness. They have decided e
keep Messrs. Harlan and Bede pound

There is another feature in the sit
uation which materially aids the Re
publicans. The electoral college this
year contains as votes more than 1t
did four years ago. 3S of these votes
are gained by states which went Re
publican four wears ago and are or
dinarily in the Republican column,
while the Democratic states gain only
ten electoral votes. The advantage OF
the increase at the very start is de-
cidedly with the Republicans and
makes II all the more difficult for Pro-
fessor Wilson to secure the 266 cleo
toral votes which he must have in
order to be elected.
SO that. with Roosevelt eliminated
with Wilson arousing no enthusiasm
with prosperity as a valuable asset
with the American people realizing the
absurdity OF inviting Democratic dis
tress and with the advantage of an in

The esteemed Amity Standard
would befog the issue. The Observer
has never said it opposed equal suf-
frage We did say that we would
be strong for it if we really believed
the women wanted the ballot. But
we have so far refrained from playing
to the galleries with impassioned ut
terances regarding the disenfranchised
portion of our communities, an attrib-
ute which appears to tickle the vanity
of every mollycoddle in the country.
The Standard is referred to the re-
suit of a recent straw vote taken by
the Dallas Itemizer, which showed
that, of total of 900 women inter
viewed, practically ATS of them op-
posed equal suffrage. Perhaps, how
ever, this result would have been as
great the other way if the Standards
in this community was
more general.

Colonel Roosevelt denies the report
that he intends to bolt the Republican
party and head a third party move
ment should he fail to secure the
nomination in the Chicago convention.
OF what value is this denial? He said
he wouldn't be a candidate for the
presidential nomination in 1912; even
declared he would never again be a
candidate for such nomination. Still,
as we survey the situation, it appears
that T. r. may have been telling the
truth, after all. As states hold their
primaries and conventions, it be-
comes more and more apparent that
he will not be a candidate" But it

LaFollette. 1t is even claimed by
many that Roosevelt will be third
man in the Chicago convention. All
of which serves to show that even a
popular idol must play fair with his
friends if he expects to enjoy the con-
fdenee of the people. Even the Sc
cure place which Roosevelt once held
in the hearts of the American people
was not strong enough to cause them
to forget his solemn promises or the
