ABOUT Mr.. PERKINS
THINGS CONGRESSMAN STANLEY
SAID OF COL. RoosEvELT's
FINANCIAL AID.
WIDOW AND ORPHAN ROBBED
Plain Talk Conserving the Man Who
Contributed $4,000 Of Other Peo.
Peoples Money to Aid In the EIec-
tlon Of T. r.

People everywhere are asking why
George Perkins, late OF J. p. Morgan
| & Co, and now of the Harvester trust
Is such an enthusiastic Progressive
and why Mr.. Roosevelt has made him
his campaign chairman, Both have
explained. each is pleased with the
other. Roosevelt tells us of Perkins
coming to him, but perhaps. when all
Is known. II will develop that ha went
after Perkins!
Mr.. Morgan's ex-partner has been
advocating this long time the creation
or court OF big business at the
capital city which, as We understand
his proposition, will leave the govern.
ment very little to do This is similar
to Roosevelt's plan to establish an au-
tocratlc stewardship OF the public wei
fare untrammeled by courts OF by con-
gress. When great men think along
the same lines they inevitably must
come together.
In connection with Mr.. Perkins past
It may be of interest TO hear In part
what Congressman Stanley had to say
In the house respecting the $4,000 OF
other peoples money contributed by
Perkins to aid In Roosevelt's cleo
ton:
He gaze his personal check to Mr..
Bliss and was reimbursed by check OF
the New York Life Insurance com
pany, payable to J. P. Morgan & Co.
The proceeds OF this check were traced
to Mr. Perkins. and he was arrested
under n warrant charging him with
grand larceny. Perkins knew the con.
sent OF the policy holders was neces-
sary to save this appropriation OF their
funds from larceny, and that consent
was not obtained, and could not have
been obtained
Who were these pilfered policy
holdersH The most pathetic and help
less figures In all this tale OF tears
the young mother, wrapped in the
black habiliments of woe; orphans
wailing the name OF father above the
silent dead. He robbed the widow OF
her slender pntrimony and snatched
the last crumb from the pinched fn-
gers OF helpless childhood. In all tho
iohthsome annals of greed and graft
there Is nothing so sordid and pitIless
MS the creatures who did 1t. This
man escaped prison cell by the skin
OF his teeth for having picked the
pockets OF shroud."
This lie what MIR. Stanley said OF
the campaign manager of the third
term party. whose motto 10 "let the
people rule!" This Is Mr.. Perkins.

Did Roosevelt Tell the Truth?

Questions OF veracity are 30 much
In evidence nowadays that, happening
to pick up an old newspaper, the
above question Immediately arose:
President Roosevelt, on being In.
formed of Mr.. Taft's nomination for
the presidency said:
Il feel that the country ia indeed
to be congratulated upon the nomina.
tion OF Mr.. Taft. ! have known him
intimately for many years. and have
n peculiar feeling for him because
throughout that time we have worked
for the same object with the same
purposes and ideals.
Il DO not believe there could be
found In all the country a man 80
well fitted to BIO president He ia not
only absolutely fearless, absolutely
disinterested and upright but he has
the widest acquaintance with the ma.
tion's needs without and within and
the broadcast sympathies with all our
citizens.
He would BIO emphatically a pres.
ident OF the plain people as Lincoln.
yet not Lincoln himself would be
freer from the least faint OF dema.
gogy. the least tendency to arouse
or appeal to class hatred of any kind.
He has peculiar and Intimate
knowledge of and sympathy with the
needs of all Of our people-of TIE
farmer, OF the wage worker. of the
business man, Of the property owner.
No matter what mans occupation
or social position. no matter what his
creed his color. or the section OF the
country from which he comes. II ho
Is an honest. Woodworking man, who
tries to do his duty toward his neigh. |
Dor and toward the country, he can
rest assured that he viii have in MFR. !
TAFT the most upright OF representa-. |
tives and the most fearless OF cham. |
pions. Mr.. Taft stands against priyi.
lege. and he stands pre-eminently for
the broad principles of American citI.
senship which lie at the foundation Of
our national well-being."
II Mr.. Roosevelt told the truth
then. what shall be said of some OF
his recent utterances?

All United for Wilson,

The unanimity with which all Demo-
Gratis and Democratic newspapers are
supporting Woodrow Wilson is re-
markable. There has not been NOM
nation SO generally accepted and so
warmly ratified by any party in many
years. After every national conven.
ton there have been daily reports
about papers which have repudiated
the candidate nominated and about
prominent people who have gone over
to the other party. On this occasion
there are practically no Democratic
papers but what are heartily support
ing the candidacy OF Woodrow VIII
son. All Democrats are Cor him. and
thinking. progressive Republicans are
for him.

Governor Wilson Talks to Farmers.

governor wilson AXIS TO FarWera-
The chief good points of Woodrow
Wilson's talk to farmers OF three
states were three:
First, he was interested himself. He
believes profoundly in government by
public opinion, In the value OF the
thought on public questions OF the
average man. We have heard speeches
by presidential candidates-some OF
them not more than four years ago
which had about as much of the spon-
taneity that comes from a sense that
tho thing said is worth saying as the
greeting extended to the three little
maids" by Poo Bah, in THE Mlkado."
But Governor Wilson has the zest that
comes from enjoyment OF real oppor.
tunity.
Second. Governor Wilson is clear in
his understanding OF national prob
lens. He knows human weaknesses
and selnshnesses; this helps him to
discuss the tariff intelligently, He
knows how to organize and govern
men; this makes him worth listening
to when he discusses remedies.
Third, the governor realizes the ire
mendous strength of the forces be-
hind the rising tide of Democratic sue
cess. He realizes that victory at the
polls is practically assured and that
the great problem is to get ready to
use that victory wisely. He Is think
ing not OF election day only. but of
the four years which will follow.
