BETRAYED HIS FRIENDS
fREAcHERY ONLY WORD TO AP.
PLY TO RoosEvELT's ACTIONS.
If Nominated, the Ex-President VIII
Be a Worthy Leader Of the Party
Of Broken Promises-solemn
Pledges unkept.

THE wise custom which limits the
president to two terms regards the
substance and not the FORM" said The
odore Roosevelt In 1904 and again in
1907, "and under no circumstances
will | be a candidate for or accept
another nomination for president"
Two clauses in this statement make
1t a more comprehensive remuneration
of a third term than anything that
ever was written or spoken by Wash
lngton, Jefferson and jackson. We re-
fer to the words "the substance and
not the form" and under no circum-
stances" They cover every possible
trick or evasion.
The man who made this solemn
pledge to the people now says: Il will
accept the nomination for president IL
1t is rendered to me-" and adds: my
position is perfectly simple. When |
said that under no circumstances
would | accept a third term / meant,
of course, a third consecutive term"
1t transpires that in addition to this
promise to the people, which was
merely in keeping with their unwrit-
ten law, he also placed himself under
the same pledge personally to two
men with whom he had the highest
obligation to bear himself honorably.
One of these was William H. Taft.
The other was Robert M. La Toilette.
The Washington Star states on high
authority that the confidence enter
tanned by the administration that
Colonel Roosevelt would not be a can
didate against Taft was based on def
mite and repeated statements by Roose-
welt made within a year"
Walter M. Houser, campaign man
ager for Senator La Toilette, says that
Mr.. Roosevelt was "one of those who
Induced Mr.. La Toilette to become a
candidate against Taft and that Mr..
Roosevelt sent word to Mr.. La Fol
lette by a friend that he (Roosevelt)
would not be considered in any man
ner as a candidate"
1t is fortunate in many respects that
the claimant in this case has exposed
himself so completely. Few of the
necessary men" of the world have
been 80 voluble and spectacular as he.
Not one of them ever addressed him
self to a people so well informed and
SO capable of judging for themselves.
There will be no third term, con
secutiye" or other, but there will be
a continuing and we hope an endless
popular condemnation of the man who
invented the lowest bubble known to
our politics and fortified it with
treachery and demagogy.-St. Louis
Republic.

Testimonials to the Necessary Man

testimonials TO n Necessary Man.
Like the steel trust, the sugar trust
now enters a plea of immunity.
The steel trust holds that, as more
than n Republican president "ac-
guessed" in its organization and de-
%velopment, 1t cannot be prosecuted.
The sugar trust maintains that the
decision In the knight case in 1904
is a bar to proceedings against it for
conspiracy.
In the Knight case there was a pre-
tense that the department Of justice
was moving against the sugar trust,
but the case was SO carelessly pre-
pared that nothing came of 1t. Some
people were unkind enough to say
that there was no purpose on the part
of the governments officers to secure
a conviction.
People who are not exactly crazy
over the third-term movement should
make note of the fact that the Repub-
lican president under whom for near
ly eight years the government "ac-
q%uiesced" in the operations of tho
trusts and carried on prosecutions that
good lawyers said were foredoomed
to failure was the necessary man"
who is now awaiting "a call to arms"

END OF HISTORIC HOUSE
Residence Of Nine. de sevisne of Paris
to Be Turned Into Homes for
Workmen.

Paris.-One Of the residences Of
Madame de Seyigne, whose letters re-
vealed so much of the inner history of
France during the days of "le grand
m%onarque." is about to lose its his
toric character. 1t is a country house
near Livry, on the way to Gargan, and
1t used to be called Madame de Sc
vigne's "folie.' "Folie" was a name
given in the days OF Louis XIV, and In
later years to any country seat over
which an owner INDUCED an uncom.
non fancy In the matter of its design.
One of the characteristics of
Madame de Sevigne's "folie' was a
quaint, little chapel, and neal 1t a Gu
rious sort of belfry, which long ago
fell into ruins. The rest of the cha.
teau is fairly well preserved. 1t was
In this quaint residence that Madame
de Sevigne is believed to have writ
ten many of her letters to her daugh.
ter.
1t is now sharing the fate Of many
a similar relic Of the past. 1t is being
transformed into a modern resort of
utility. An association providing cot.
tage accommodations for the working
classes has obtained possession Of the
house and grounds. The old hall has
already been converted, and, with the
additions in progress, 1t will become
a vast caravansary Of about 100 rooms.
with as many Kitchens and offices.
Most of the old walls will remain
standing, but the Transformation will
be such that future visitors will hard
ly recognize any vestige of Madame de
Sevigne's "folie."

MUCH GOOD DONE BY STRIKE
Lawrence Tragedy Has Shown Infamy
and Outrage of AIdrIch Brand
of Protection.

The situation at Lawrence, Mass,
is a staring exhibit of the wrong and
outrage that are wrapped in the rob-
Der cloak of Schedule X.
Senator Simmons of North Carolina
is plainly right in his statement of the
case. The wooden manufacturers Of
Lawrence have been haunting the lob
bies Of congress for more years of
rapacity and intrigue than fairly be-
long to a single generation. Under
the cunning hand Of Aldrich they
have spun and woven their '1ndefen-
sible" schedule-in hypocritical pre-
tense OF protecting, free American
workingmen from the competition Of
the pauper labor of Europe"
With this same wooden schedule In
their pockets the same manufacturers
who have SO ~unctuously negotiated
1t and imposed its heavy taxation upon
all American clothes have sailed off
securely to Europe, and there have
ransacked the darkest corners of the
old world to find and bring to Amer
lea the very "paupers" from whom
Americans were to be protected.
Or If the poor wretches of the op-
pressed lands of the old world were
not quite paupers when they landed
on these shores the wooden manufac-
turers have done their best to make
them paupers after they got here, by
paying them pauper wages.
Did ever a screaming farce end in
such pathos-in such tragedy? Law
renee has been made into an economic
plague spot--a menace to the board
and clothes Of all honest working
Americans.
The ~long-drawn misery of this Mas
sachusetts strike should scar as with
a branding iron the infamy of the
Aldrich tariff. II any experience of a
victimized public can burn out an in
veterate insult and political crime this
ought to do it.-Chicago American.

In Ananias Club.

Thus Theodore Roosevelt, on the
evening of November 8, 1904, upon be-
ing elected to a second term:
The wise custom which limits pres
idents to two terms regards the sub
stance and not the form. Under no
circumstances will I be a candidate
for oil accept another nomination"
Thus Theodore Roosevelt, on De-
cember IL, 1907, when the Second
elective termers" had become over
enthusiastic:
Il have not changed and shall not
change that decision thus announced
And thus Theodore Roosevelt, in let
ter dated February "a, 1912, and ad-
dressed to seven governors:
II will accept the nomination for
president If 1t Is rendered to me, and
I will adhere to the decision until the
convention has expressed its prefer
ence."
That's all!-Baltimore Star.
