Mr.. Straus.
Il appeal to YOU, my fellow citi-
zens instead of argument against the
so-ealled Roosevelt third term, such
acts as these are the very best argu-
ment against the Taft second term
One thing is clear, that this practice
of President using the power of Of
fice-holders to gain a denomination
should be effectually prohibited in ae-
cordance with the spirit, il not the
very provisions of the constitution it
self. The Republican party should not
forget that methods such az these out
ragged the public sentiment in the
time of Harrison and deservedly de-
feated him. 1t is for this reason
among others, that the Progressives
insist upon preferential primaries for
the election of delegates to the Ma
tional convention"
4 Mr.. Straus quoted Washington as
writing to Lafayette in 17Ss:
There cannot, in my judgment, be
the least danger that the President
will, by any practical intrigue. ever
be able to continue himself one mo-
ment in Office, much less perpetuate
himself in it, Under an extended view
of this part of the subject, I can see
no propriety in precluding ourselves

met with an automobile accident which
may possibly result in the cancellation of
his 45-round Lght with Jim Flynn at Las

Physicians were summoned and an exam
ination brought out the fact that several
tendons in Johnson's back were wrenched.
In all probability he will be unable to do
any work for the next three weeks. The
match with Flynn may have to be post
poned indefinitely. In addition TO the in
jured back his head was bruised, while his
clothing was tattered.
Johnson had just left his quarters in the
Hotel Royal and was booming down Wylle
avenue at rapid pace, when truck, be-
longing to a wholesale dealer crashed into
