the Cannons went among the people
and said this man Caesar wants to so
change our laws that he will become
king, he is ambitious and self
seeker, he wants to be big boss of US
all. The Guggenheims, McKinleys,
Cranes and Cannons Of Caesars time
were afraid of Caesar. His genius
was too big for them. He might get
so solid with the people that they
would all lose their jobs, so they said
let US get away with him. And again
the fool people said you are right, he is
a bad man. He has done all these
good things for US just to make him
self great. You are right in putting
him out of the way.
The Barnes and the Murphy's. and
the Harriman's of Socrates time knew
if the changes that he advocated were
brought about their occupation would
be gone. They were standpatters.
Things as they were then suited them
and they opposed any change in reli-
gion or government, so they got to-
gether and said among themselves this
man Soc. wants to make the people
believe he knows more than all of US
put together. He wants to be boss.
He thinks he's great. Let's get away
with him. And once more the fool
people didn't know the difference be-
tween true and false prophet, and
they fixed up some dope and made
Socrates drink it. Well, to bring a
long story to an end-but what be-
came Of the Greeks, you say? Their
descendants are drawing our water and
hewing our wood and some of them
are working on the sections. The
descendants Of the once proud Ro-
mans are what some people call Dagos,
while the descendants Of those who
crucified the Saviour of mankind are
mostly in the clothing and pawnbrok-
ing business and have no home at all.
There are certain Jackals swapping
at the heels of Theodore Roosevelt,
they are standpatters. They want
things to remain as they are. If the
changes that Roosevelt advocates are
adopted some of them are certain to
lose their jobs. Therefore they go
about saying this man Roosevelt wants
to be boss OF the whole works. He's
ambitious, too. He's self seeker.
He wants to be it. He's an all round
bad man and we want the people to
help US do him up.
The following story may help some
people to decide whether to listen
to Barnes and Penrose and ring a
change on history or follow in the
beaten path of the past:

In answering squarely the question,
Is Roosevelt sincere7" which has
been raised often by his enemies in
this campaign. E. A. Van Valken-
berg editor Of the Philadelphia North
American, makes most striking con-
tribution to the story of the great cam
paign.
1t is as convincing a light on the
progressive movement, its leader and
what the two mean to the country, as
can be.
Mr.. Van Valkenburg says:
It was on the morning after Will
sons nomination that we were privi-
legged to be alone with Theodore
Roosevelt and his family and to &C
quire personal, irrefutable proof that
his purposes are patriotic, unselfsh,
utterly sincere.
During a two-hour discussion he
laid before US his masterful analysis oil
the situation confronting him. There
was not trace of nervousness nor a
hint Of egotistical assurance in his
manner or his words. With merciless
exactitude he pictured the probable
effect upon his career of the step he
was facing and weighed its results with
the serene courage Of man reconciled
to what seemed a certain fate.
1t is no violation of confidence to
say that there never appeared in any
thing he said suggestion of personal
victory. There was, on the other hand,
plain realization Of the fact-indi-
