! To the managers of Colonel Roosc-
velt's campaign for the Republica n
presidential nomination, the results OF
the presidential preferential primary
in North Dakota must be disconcerting
TO say the least. Since the colonel
tossed his hat into the ring, the coteris
of political enthusiasts who succeed
ed in dragging him into the presidential
contest have been declaring night and
1 day that the sentiment among the
Republican voters in the states west
of the Mississippi river was overwhelm-
ingly in favor OF his nomination for
a third term. Let the people speak
through presidential primaries and
they viii show Enthusiastically that they
stand with Colonel Roosevelt" has, IN
effect, been their slogan Before the
votes were cast and counted in the
North Dakota primary they predicted
that the tremendous endorsement Col
onel Roosevelt would get from the
Republicans of that state would have
great moral weight in the furtheranee
of his candidacy to a successful issue.
They went so far, the other day, IS
to assert that only two states west OF
the Mississippi, Utah and Arkansas
Well, the Republican people of North
Dakota were permitted to speak
through the medium of presidential
primary And they spoke in most
convincing fashion against the cand'-
dacy of colonel Roosevelt. Incidental
", they demolished the several con-
tentions of the Roosevelt managers
about the Roosevelt sentiment in the
west in like fashion that houses built
of straw are demolished by gentle
breeze. Instead of winning a victory
in North Dakota that would have
great moral effect throughout. the
length and breadth of the nation, tie
Roosevelt managers have been dealt a
blow of the knockout variety at the
very beginning of their campaign. Il
ought not TO take much longer Tor
Colonel Roosevelt and the men VINO
have charge of his campaign to real
ize that an expressed opinion of seven
governors as to the national political
sentiment of the Republicans of the
country, does not necessarily coincide
with the facts in the premises.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1912-03-21

And a laughable incident of the
aftermath of the North Dakota primary
is the insistenee of some of the Roose-
welt managers that the wicked Dem
ocrats of that state were responsible
in a large measure for the tremendous
vote that was piled up for LaFoIlette
When it has been urged that presiden-
tial primaries should not be held by
Republicans except in those states
where they are provided for by law,

Colonel Roosevelt and his friends
must have received an inkling of this
when they got thu news of the action
taken by the Republican state commit
tee of Kansas. Governor Stubs =
among the sacred seven of the chief
executives whom Colonel Roosevelt
holds responsible for getting him into
that length of time. Governor Stubbs
and his lieutenants in insurgency have
been in the Republican political sad
die of Kansas for several years. They
have been running the Republican
state committee as they pleased for
that length of time. Governor Stubs
told Colonel Roosevelt that the senti-
ment of the Republicans in Kansas
was overwhelmingly in his favor. And
vet, when q crucial test came GoVet-
nor Stubs could not swing the Re
publican state committee to do his
bidding. He could not prevent it from
passing strong resolutions favoring the
denomination of President Taft. BY
the time the Republican national con-
vention meets, the sacred seven Will
undoubtedly be the most discredit5d
aggregation Of political prophets that
this country has even seen.

! There is an added significance to
the LaFollette victory in North Da-
kota, nor does it in any way discredit
/ the candidacy of President Taft. 1t
has all along been conceded by the
Taft campaign managers that there
were several states in which the Re
publican voters were strong for ths
principles of government advocated by
the little giant of Wisconsin. Before
| Colonel Roosevelt entered the presi-
Dental arena the Taft managers con-
| coded the delegates in these states IL
the Republican national convention 10
| Mr.. LaFollette There was no claim on
| the part of the Taft manas- that Mr..
I.aFollette would be unable to get the
| delegates from a single state. With
| LaFollette as the principal candidate
| in the field against Mr.. Taft the issue
| was clean cut for the Republicans. of
the. nation to decide-whether they IA
vored the radical policies of govern
ment projected by LaFollette or wheth-
| er they favored the more conservative
and more practical progressive policies
urgeo. by Mr.. Taft and which he has
! been so successful in working out On
this issue it was conceded that several
states where Republican radicalism
prevails would choose LaFollette- dele
gates to the Republican national COR
vention. North DAKOTA was one of these
states. And the Republican voters of
North Dakota could not be fooled into
believing that on the big questions, of
national concern CoIone! Roosevelt
stands on the radical policies that have
been promulgated by LaFollette. So
they turned Mr.. Roosevelt down wiki
a dull sickening thud, and this not
withstanding the fact that he is per-
sonally popular with the people in North
Dakota where he lived for a number
of years. This also shows the essen
tial weak-spot of contention of the
Roosevelt leaders that the big bulk OF
the Republicans of the west are for
the colonel for a third term and on
| any old kind of platform on which he
desires to run They mistake Colonel
Roosevelt's personal popularity for his
| political strength.

Am6rique. II partit pour le Te-
xas, emportant la caisse ct emme-
nant une colonie toute r6solue q
tenter l'application des merveilleu-
ses theories collectivistes. La
bas, Considerant rencontra P6ve-
que missionnaire de la region,
plus richie de d6vouement que d'ar-
gent. Consid6rant, pouss6 par un
sentiment d'humanit6, exposa au
missionnaire sa pr6cieuse m6tho-
de. L'6veque l6couta patiem-
ment ct lui dit: mon ami, avant

tienne. Quand vos colons vou-
dront vous tuer, venez vous r6fu-

Consid6rant resta stup6fait dune
