WHY IS a BULL MOOSE?

Ask the average Bull Mooser why
he's where he Is, and ten to one he'll
assume sanctimonious expression
and declare because Roosevelt is
the choice Of the people and Taft Sc
cured the nomination by fraud y
This is the stock and trade of the
Bull Moose people and they take
their cue from the Big 1t Of the
party. Strange, when one stops to
think, that these wonderfully honest
Bun MOOsers have all at once dis
covered that the management Of the
machinery Of political conventions is
fraudulent unless their own candi-
date shall be successful. Isn't it pc
culiar that methods that were all
right in 1908 have come to be terri
flying in 1912.
Let MS do a little suppOsng. Sup
pose for instance, the National Re
publican committee had been com
posed Of a majority Of RooseVelts
friends, ana suppose they had sus-
tanned his trumped up contests in
Southern states and seated all the
colonel's delegates in instances where
II was admitted, afterWard, that the
fOHltbIh were ulI anu N'l'o'
delegates had assembled and nomi-
mated the Bull Moose in place of
President Taft. How many Of these
same third -tcrmers who are working
themselves into a frenzy denOuncing
the "crime of Chicago" would have
had any fault to find with the result,
We presume the colonel would have
declared that "the peepul" had at
last come into their own! There
would have been no steal in such a
proceeding because ! won
Roosevelt wouldn't have taken
the nomination unless it came hon
cstly," declares deludcd follower of
~. II. Rats, He instituted more
than 200 contests that he knew to
be absolutely groundless, and after
ward admitted 1t, in order to deceive
the people and use the influence Of
this Misrepresentation in states whore
primaries were to he held. He Is
even now laying his plans to steal
the Republican electors i'm several
states. Oh, no, no 'taint" for r. Y.
Especially when said "Taint' helps
the other fellow
So there you are The ordinary
don't know anything
about the principles of the party and
wouldn't know their platform If they
happened to meet II in the road All
they know Is that Roosevelt ia tie
party and their allegiance to him
permits them to worship the sancti- |
fed hero of the African game trails |
cat $500 per wordD and what more |
need they ask
The wonderfully righteous mortals |
who just simply cant" stand this
theft Of delegates" engineered 10y

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreaded disease that science mas
been able to cure in all its stages
and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Ca
tarrh being a constitutional disease,
requires a constitutional treatment
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken inter-
nally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system,
therefore destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing
its work. The proprietors have so
much faith in its curative powers
that they offer One Hundred Dollars
for any case that it fails to cure.

Harry Thaw has ended another
fight for freedom and the outcome
has been disastrous to his hopes.
The Court says he is still insane and
his release would be menace to So
ciety. The greater majority of the
people probably don't care a hoot
whether the former Pittsburg mil
lionaire is released or not, but they
do hope that his pictures and that of
Evelyn will now be missed from the
front pages of the daily press

Roosevelt was defeated in his ef-
forts to secure the presidential nom
ination on the Republican ticket so
he bolted the party and organized
one of his own where he would be
certain to land the nomination.
Bruce Dennis, the embryo politician
with a COCO like a peanut actually
aspired to be national committeeman
from Oregon and when he was de-
feated by Ralph Williams, he also
bolts the party and jumps into the
new one where his wonderful ability
will be recognized. If the BullmoOse-
ties will continue Turing men like
Dennis into their ranks, the Repub-
Iicans of Oregon will have no cause
to complain.
Polk County observer. (Monmouth, Polk County, Or.) 1888-1927, 1912-07-30

President Taft will be notified on
August / that he was nominated for
president by the Republican nation
al convention in Chicago, on June
%. one would naturally think that
William would be somewhat worried
about the result of that convention
and it isn't fair to keep him in sus-
pcnse that way.

for the oiling of mile of county
road somewhere in the county. Since
the success of the work on the streets
of Dallas has been determined, hun
dreds Of farmers have stated that
they would like to see the experiment
tried on a country road where the
dust is bothersome. The expense Of
oiling a mile of road would be, we
about $50 and it would
be money well expended. 1t would
demonstrate whether it would prove
a success and, if so, there is no
question but what many roads would
be oiled during the coming year. II
it was thought inadvisable to pay for
the work from the county funds it
is probable that much Of it would
