A Roosevelt Party

Messrs. Edward G. Caring
ton, Jr.. Charles J. Bonaparte
(Soup House Charley George
X. Gather, George l.. yelling
ton and other Maryland Repub-
licans have issued a call for a
Roosevelt convention to be held
in Baltimore, July 18th. 1t is
safe to say that when the
National convention of the
Roosevelt party meets later on,
that Roosevelt will nominate
Roosevelt as the nominee of
the Roosevelt party for Presi-
dent. Oh yes, Roosevelt will
RUN all right. This time he
will not have to bribe the dele
gates to vote for him, or put up
fake contests as he did in Chi
cago. Thou shalt not steal, :
has no terrors for him. Get
there" is his motto. If you
can't get there one way try the
other-but-get there.
Roosevelt will not get any
number of Southern Democrats
to vote for him. Southern Dem
ocrats do not believe in social
equality between the negro and
white man-Roosevelt DOES
he has boldly Haunted his be-
lief in the eyes of the Southern
Democrats, and now there is
more JOY in the hearts of the
Southern self-respectiEg white
men over the downfall of Roose-
welt than of any man in the
United States. He is a hypo-
critic, an egoist, a blatant dem
agogue-an opportunist with
out the saving grace of decency.

WiIsOn-The Peoples
Candidate

All men, to whatever party
they belong, can safely espouse
the cause of Woodrow Wilson,
the nominee for the Presidency
of the great American people.
True. Wilson was nominated
by the Democratic Party. but
his nomination was demanded
of that party by the PEOPLE.
1t was done regardless of the
desires of the politician. 1t
was done regardless of the de-
mands of the Interests. 1t was
done in spite of all these forces.
WOODROW WILSON Is THE
PEOPLES CANDIDATE FOR
THE p r Els d f NC Y. He
stands out in bold relief as a
great man, who will make a
great President. He stands out
in singular favor as the champ
ion of truth and honesty in the
conduct of public office. AS
the Governor of the great State
of New Jersey he has demon
strated his fealty to the people.
He is not a trimmer. but a
straightforward manly man.
The young men of the nation
demanded the nomination of
Wilson and the older men of the
nation recognized their demand
as right and proper. North.
south, east and west are
marching in the Wilson col
umn already. 1t is a great pa
geant the marching of the
PEOPLE to their own home
coming. Glory, Glory, Halle
lujah.

THE desperate Adventures
who is trying to launch a Third
Party this year is plotting to
bring about a situation essen
TALLY like that of 1876 in sever
al important features. He
seeks TO set up contests" in
the Electoral Colleges of a
number of States, of the same
impudent sort as those he in
vented for the Convention of
the Republican Party, and he
bases the later on the earlier.
Asserting that the composition
of the convention whose nomi-
nation he moved heaven and
earth to secure, and which
would have gone unchallenged
had he succeeded, was invalid,
he is engaged in a mad hunt
for Republican candidates for
Elector who will betray their
party in his interest. Where
the Electors are nominated by
the State Conventions, he is
seeking, by the aid of the I'M
scrupulous politicians whom he
has won to his side, to capture
the conventions. Where he
cannot do that he is organizing
bolts TO "steal" the Electors.
Where Electors are chosen at
primaries under the State law,
he will adjure the Republicans
that have been or may be NAM
ed to reject the authority of the
Republican National Conven-
ton and, if elected, to cast
their votes for him, who, what
ever else he may pretend to be,
is not and can not be a Repub-
