Our Presidential Outlook

As conservative people now view
the presidential situation the
chances for the election OF Wilson
grow stronger all the time. This
is an age OF political reform and the
people OF the country are aroused as
never before and they are demand
ing a cleaner government. more
free from the Vaccinations OF the
predatory intoyests.
The spirit Of reform promises a
sloughing away from Taft who Is
recognized as subject to the dicta-
ton OF the big interests.
Roosevelt has already been re-
garded as radically unsafe. While
his independence and aggressiveness
are admired by many people and
his open rebellion against the pow
ers Of his own party leaders stamps
him as a man who will do things the
people are fearful that he may seek
to do too much therefore the pub
lie mind in turning away from Taft
because OF his subserviency to the
old order of things will not likely
fly to the other extreme represent
ed by Roosevelt. The country is apt
to seek that middle ground between
the moneyed arlstocracy represent
ed By Taft and the sooiallstic theo-
ries being promulgated by the pro
gresslve or Bull Moose element. and
will choose that even conservative
line OF activities for which the
true democracy has always stood
and which is so positively represent

This latter was the case with
Judge c. X. Buchanan. whom the
electorate preferred to the present
incumbent by a majority OF 45. Mr..
Buchanan was County Judge for four
years previous to the beginning OF
Judge Smiths term and that his ad-
ministration was a wise and success
full one is evidenced by the primary
result
Judge Buchanan has also hitherto
served four years as county clerk
and hence has enjoyed a ripe exper-
