Paltering in a Double
Sense.
BY LEO.

N1dSOCJll "AO ANA ~ w AAAO S%~N--
by the equivccation of the witch
es. They had promised him Ger
tain things that might be under
stood in two ways, and wher
Macbeth found out that he haC
been duped he breaks out in in
dignation-
And be these juggling fiends nc
more believed,
That palter with us in a double
sense,
That keep the word of promise
to our ear,
And break it to our hope"
And what is it to palter? 1t
means to haggle, to equivocate,
to deceive with ambiguous words
capable of more than one mean
ing.
Did Theodore Roosevelt palter
with us in a double sense when
he said, Under no circumstan-
ces will seek or accept a third
term?" Most men would take
that to mean that he never would
want a third term in the presi-
dency, whether consecutive or
otherwise. That was the under
standing.
Did he mean it that way2 1t
seems not, for his closest friends
now affirm that he meant three
consecutive terms. The Outlook
illustrates it thus: When a man
at breakfast says | don't want
another cup of coffee, it is well
understood that he means at that
time. That is cute. Suppose he
said, II will never again drink a
cup ofscoffee," would he be keep
ing to his word if he called for
coffee next morning?
That is practically what RSos-
evelt said in reference to the
third term. He made no men
ton of consecutive terms. That
seems to have come in as an af-
terthought-the work of some
jealous friends of the ex-presi-
dent. If Roosevelt meant what
his friends claim he did, then he
did what the witches did to Mac
beth; he paltered in a double
sense. We can hardly believe it.
After preaching so much of right
eousness, the square deal, and
civic integrity, and having been
held in such exalted honor by
the nation, we cannot believe
that he would equivocate or pal
ter.
And yet his friends seem de.
termined to force him to become
a candidate for a third term.
Let us hope that he will prove
"A Roman that has spoken the
word, and will not palter."
If he becomes a candidate what
political party will he adopt
Will he head either of the ole
parties, or seek to organize
third party? In his speech be
fore the constitutional conven
ton he seemed to square himsel

THE TOBACCO CROP IN
GREEN RIVER DISTRICT
Is Not Good and Prospects Poor,
According to Official
Report.

At the district meeting the first
of the month a committee was APP
pointed to report on the condition
of the tobacco crop at the close of
each month, which report has Just
been taken and will be read with
interest by those concerned, as
there has been much comment on
the crop since the heavy rains.
The report is given by four rep
resentatives from each Magisterial
District in each county that COM
poses the association.
The report shows the crop to be
in much worse condition in some
localities than others, especially in
the creek bottoms, where the land
was overlooked, but all report very
serious damage for want Of cultiva-
ton as we'll as too much water.
The report shows that about Ito
per cent of normal crop was
planted. The estimate of what was
entirely lost runs from 10 to 30
per cent and a general average OF
the condition of what was left as
given, shows at the close of the
month about SO per cent of a crop
While it is impossible yet to de-
termine just what will be the. out
come of the crop, most every one
interested either in buying or SELL
ing, is guessing as to the future re-
suits. The condition in some re-
spects is rather unprecedented, the
early planting buttoning very low
with a hard stalk, leaf narrow with
very little spread, while the late
planting is more promising.
We want to thank the farmers
who have sent in this report and
ask them when they receive Their
card at the close of next month to
fill it out as accurately as possible
Very respectfully,

ONE BIG ISSUE WITH
THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

United States Senator LaFollette,
i'm the closing chapter of his auto
biography, which has been running

which soon is to be published in

TO be the one big issue now con-
fronting the American people. He
saws:
I'm twenty-five years of political
struggle | have found one great is
sue oyershadowing all others-the
encroachment of the powerful few
on the rights of the many. All the
issues of to-day are phases of this
one great question: How shall the
individual. the farmer, the worker,
and ell those who pay tribute, be
set free from the unjust exactions
of the tariff. the railroads, and 9TH
err forms of oppression by special
interests?
when Roosevelt became Presi-
dent the total stock and bond is
sues of the trusts was $3,7S4, OOO,-
900. When he turned the country
over to Taft this total had grown
to $31,672,9OO,OOO. seventy per
cent of which is water"

That Gov Wilson has the conf
dence OF the business interests is
shown by the fact that his nomina-
iton did not cause the slightest dis
turbance in the financial centers
that are supposed to be barometers
of the business welfare. All the
big corporations are working al
most to the limit of their capacity.

influential Republicans to the Gov
ernor's allegiance, notable among
whom is c. r Grams. the Chicago
