The preponderance of delegates

total number of them up to 141 out
of 15S chosen. The Fourteenth

A Beaten Man.


The Parkersburg Dispatch-News
correctly concludes that Colonel
Roosevelt is beaten man. That
newspaper says there never was a
greater blunder made by any poll
tician than that made by the coloner
when he decided to become .presi-
Dental candidate again. This has
been followed by series of other
blunders, and now, in view of his
circumstances, the Parersburg news
paper does not understand how the
Roosevelt supporters can see any
thing else but defeat for the former
president. 9taE
The breaking OF faith with Presi.
dent Taft and with the American
people regarding his candidacy are
set forth as factors in the defeat of
Mr. Roosevelt's over reaching abb
ton, but the most important is his
adoption of entirely new and ultra
radical doctrines as the basis for
his candidacy, which is thus sue
cinctly described by the Dispatch
News:
''His Columbus speech knocked
the props out from under his candi-
dacy with a crash, and served to
arouse the business men of the
country to make determined or
ganized fight against him."
The Roosevelt candidacy mas not
been an i'll wind, however, in the
opinion of the Dispatch-News:
"The Roosevelt candidacy has
served to strengthen Mr.. Taft with
the American people. They have
seriously studied him and the
achievements of his administration,
and have come to an appreciation of
him as a great statesman that
many did not formerly possess. The
contest has brought out the fighting
qualities of the president, and the.
manner he has handled himself has
won him strong admiration"

The Exponent on M. 4BrooI,s

b .
"A subscriber of the Daily Tele-
gram asks the following question:
81 have been informed that the
Exponent has been publishing some
thing against Harry L: Brooks, chief
OF police. / have looked over the
gang sheet and have failed to find
anything therein detrimental to Mr..
Brooks. What has the Exponent
said about him?"
Owing to the fact that Chief
Brooks is a man of spotless charac-
ter and has made a splendid record
as police chief, the local Democratic
newspaper finds it quite impossible
to publish anything against" him.
To the contrary, the Exponent has
publicly declared that Mr.. Brooks is
a most worthy aid excellent chief.
Here is what it has stated:
"Chief of Police Brooks and his
assistants are very alert, and as soon
as suspicious characters land in the
city they do not wait for them to
commit horrible crimes, but the Of
ficers endeayor to not let the cow
ards even have the opportunity. An
ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure The chief believes
this and endeayors to practice IT
and he certainly should be esteemed
for his provident methods"

nationi aud the laei that theg nnders

IS either Ignorant 81 the attitude az
the two last named gentlemen or
hypoeritlcaI to the core.
Governor alasscock OF this state
is regarded the leader Of the Roose-
yelt movement In West virginia, but
he must repudiate himself in order
to advance the reciprocity argument
against Mr.. Taft for he said on the
seventh day Of July last in speaking
OF Mr.. Taft and his administration
that III HIS administration had to
stand on his brave tight for Cana
dian reciprocity. q am sure that
that alone would commend It to the
favorable consideration Of major
ity Of the people OF this country. /"
Again, Colonel Roosevelt himself
could ill-atford to encourage at
tempts to prejudice farmers against
Mr.. Taft because of Canadian reci-
procity and the minute he does give
his endorsement to such an attempt,
he consigns himself to the famous
club Ole placed so many people in
when he was president. Here is how
Colonel Roosevelt stands on Cana
dian reciprocity as expressed by
himself in a speech Just a little more
than one year ago:
II want to say how glad I am to
hear the way In which the club,
the members Of the club here to-
night, responded to the appeals
made TO them to uphold the hands
of President Taft, both in his effort
to secure reciprocity with Canada
and in his efforts to secure the for
tiiication OF the Panama canal. And.
in addition to what has been said
about reciprocity with Canada, l
would like to make this point: 1t
should always be a cardinal point in
our foreign policy to establish the
closest and most friendly relations
of equal respect and advantage with
our great neighbor on the north.
And I hail the reciprocity arrange
ment because It represents an eff
fort to bring about closer, a more
intimate, a more friendly relation
ship of mutual advantage on equal
terms between Canada and the
United States"
And last comes Senator LaFol-
lett. When 1T came to docking after
the farmers interests while the
Democrats were trying to enact free
trade measures into laws which for
tunately were vetoed by Mr.: Taft,
Senator LaForlette entered into a
compact with Chairman Underwood
of the House with view to getting
the measure through the Senate.
The question: is9summed up in
this nutshell, and the farmers caa
readily see ithatairthe attempt to
prejudice them against Mr.. Taft
because OF the Canadian reciprocity
measure are based on false prom
ises and are merely made to de-
ceive.
