WHY?

Ogden Examiner: One man asks
why The Examiner thinks the re-elec-
ton of Taft will be better for the ma
ton, and for Utah, than the election
of any other man.
Well, we believe 1t will be better
than the election of the Democratic
nominee; and that is no reflection on
the patriotism and honesty of the
men who compose the Democratic par
ty. But 1t does not require an old
man to remember what was the eff.
feet OF the last Democratic admins
tration. That was a period which
Americans generally wish they could
forget. But they can not. And the
hard times of those four years were
not produced because of a fear of
Grover Cleveland. The man was
honest and able. And so were ma
jority of the people who elected him.
But the controlling minority of the
Democratic politicians made ducks
and brakes of the Democratic effort
to reform the tariff. And all the ma.
ton was frightened. Not a dollar
was invested beyond absolute needs.
Never were the purse-strings drawn
quite so closely. And never did the
people of the United States suffer so
severely.
And we believe the reelection of
Taft would be better than the cleo
ton of Colonel Roosevelt, even If
that event laid within the realm of
the possibie-which it certainly does
not--because IL fright would attend
Wilson's elevation to national power
absolute paralysis would follow the
inauguration of Roosevelt.
This is said in no spirit of unknd-
ness for the man, who certainly has
done many helpful things for the
state of Utah. But it is the recogpi-
ton of a fact. The man above all
other men in public life Is uncertain.

And because we believe that pro-

The people believe in him. They

know he knows what the nation
needs. and that he is working toward
the accomplishment of the reforms
that will satisfy those needs. The

ably subjecting mis- own -sspuriously
credentialei delegates to an examin
alton so critical as 70 expose the fal.
sity Of his own contention that he
had an honestly elected majority Of
the delegates. He therefore deliber.
ately chose to claim everything, to
cry, fraud, to bully the national com.
mittee and the convention, and
sought to create a condition which
would make impossible a calm inves-
tigation of cases upon merit and to
carry the convention by storm.
That this is true psychology of the
Roosevelt proceedings becomes per-
fectly plain. He was there to force
his own nomination or to smash the
convention. He was not there to pre-
serve the integrity of the Republican
party and make it an instrument for
the promotion of progressive princi.
pies and the restoration of govern.
ment to the people. Otherwise he
would have directed his floor mana.
gers to contest every inch of the
ground for progressive platform be-
fore the committee on resolutions and

But Mr.. Roosevelt was not govern

high patriotic and unselfish purpose
of which Bryan furnished such mag
nificent example one week later in

more. Instead he filled the public
ear with sound and fury. He ruth
lessly sacrificed everything to the
one idea of his being the one candl-
date. He engaged his followers in
the convention without putting upon
record any facts upon which the pub.
lie could base definite, intelligent
judgment regarding the validity of
Taft's nomination. He submitted no
suggestion as to a platform of pro-
gressive principles. He clamored
loudly for purging the convention roll
of tainted" delegates, without purg-
ing his own candidacy of his tainted
contests and his tainted trust support.
He offered no reason for third par
ty, excepting his own overmastering
craving for a third term.
