The Third Term e.

In his latest explanation of the
third presidential term, Colonel
Roosevelt says:
at must be clear to any reasona-
BILE man that the precedent which
forbids the third term has reference
only to a third consecutive term.
1t grew out of the fact that a presi-
dent of the United States under the
present convention system of elect
ing delegates, can, If he knows how

private citizen. The machinery is

pying he office OF president"
The notion of third "consecu-
tive" term, however, does not clarity
the controversy altogether as it
could easily be construed to apply
to a president who had served two
consecutive terms and who should
aspire to another term after one in
tervening and this seems to have
been definitely settled more than a
quarter Of a century ago when eff
forts were made to nominate ex-
President u. s. Grant at the close
OF the term following his two consec-
utive terms. 1t is not likely that the
American people will now set aside
the noble precedent laid down by
their first president and favor a
third presidential term whether it
is consecutive or not.
There are a great many people
who do not consider that Colonel
Roosevelt has served two terms in
a strict sense and to what the COL
onel says in the foregoing may be
added the additional evidence that
he oiled his first duties as president
by virtue Of his vice-presidential Of
fee and that he did not have the OPP
portunity of carrying out his own
policies but instead was obliged to
carry out those of his martyred
predecessor This is sensible
though liberal view of the question
as applied to Mr.. Roosevelt. But,
the colonel now says:
"My position is perfectly simple.
h stated it as clearly as i could in
1904 and reiterated 1t in 1907. l
said that 1ewould not accept nomi,
nation for third term, under any
circumstances, meaning, OF course,
a third consecutive term"
Mr.. Roosevelt, then president
did not mean aything of the kind
and no such possible construction
could be placed upon his words that
the wise custom which limits the
tenure of a president to two terms
regards the substance and not the
form and that he regarded his COM
pletion OF the Mckinley term as his
first term. No man in the possession
Of his senses could construe Presi-
dent Roosevelt's utterance as refer
erence to a third Consecutive"
.erm.
The colonel made a serious mis-
fae in his utterances this week on
the third term controversy and 1t
would have been much better for him
had he left it unsaid. 1t shows him
to be too ready to flop over in his
views for the sake of political ex-
pediency.

presidential, candidate believes Is
one OF the chief Democratic policies.
As to reducing the high cost OF
living, nothing Of the sort has eyon
been attempted by the Democrats
and their silence on this problem
leads to the belief that they have
not the slightest idea how to attack
1t. President Taft has in the
meantime made several well known
efforts to bring about a solution OF
the problem.
In respect to machine politics,
the Democrats have paid more at
tention to that subject both in Con-
gress and out OF 1t than they have
to any other and yet they say that
President Taft is by nature and
training not politician and can not
be classified as a politician in any
sense of the word.
Thus, on these questions that the
Democrats say they were elected,
they have shown themselves to be
utterly incapable of their trusts and
have proved the charge that they
promise one thing and do another.
Whenever the Democrats declare
they are going to run on. such and
such an issue or set of Issues, it
may be set down as a foregone con,
clusion that they will be on the neg
alive side.

Taft and Roosevelt

Now that Theodore Roosevelt,
private citizen, is beyond the
shadow of numerous doubts that
have been entertained, a receptive
candidate for the Republican nomi-
nation for the presidency, the Tele-
gram desires to state that in the
event he is nominated by the Chica.
go convention, which this newspaper
does not think probable, the Tele-
gram will support him for election.
The Telegram has heretofore fought
under the Roosevelt banner and it
will do so again when 1t is convinced
that majority of the Republicans
Of the country are ready and willing
to adopt the radical policies that are
now advocated by the former presi-
dent. That will be the verdict of
the party and the Telegram is es-
sentially a Republican newspaper,
always willing to cast its lot with
the party Of achievement and prog
ress.
The Telegram believes it voices
the sentiment of Republicans here
abouts, however, that certain views
now entertained by Mr.. Roosevelt are
not conducive to the success Of the
party for the reason that they verge
too much into extremes for sound
Republican doctrines. The Telegram
has always been .stauhch adrnirer
OF the present able, conscientious
president, William Howard Taft. 1t
believes that Mr.. Taft has accom-
plished vast good and has done
remarkably we'll in the trying stu
alton in which he has found him
self with practically both hands tied
in his efforts to bring about an en-
forcement OF his policies. 1t be-
lieves that Mr.. Taft is essentially
just and correct in his position in
regard to the apparently pernicious
doctrines of the recall, the initiative
and the referendum. 1t upholds
the president in his tariff policies,
particularly in regard to his idea Of
a scientific revision of the tariff with
the, aid of non-partisan tariff
board. 1t believes he is doing the
best he can in efforts to solve eco
nomic problems of the high cost Of
living. 1t believes he is doing a
wonderful work in introducing econ
otny and efficiency in governmental
affairs. 1t believes he voices sound
doctrine of arbitration and of further
peace among the family of nations.
The Telegram, too, believes earnestly
in the Taft prosecutions of illegal
trusts and monopolistic combina-
tions and believes his administration
has accomplished more in its time
than has been accomplished in the
entire history of such prosecutions.
In short, the Telegram believes
that of the two leading candidates
of the party, William Howard Taft
is justly entitled to a denomination
and that the people want him to
have it.

THE Unprogressive Party !.

In trying to define the term
progressive" and to show that it
could be applied to the Democrats
because they are not, the Charles
ton Gazette says that the Demo
cratic party "won in 1910 upon the
tariff, the trusts. the high cost Of
living and opposition to machine
politics :"
This is equivalent to saying that
the Democratic party won on public
issues 81 the day and is platitude
without even emptiness. The
trouble with the Democratic party
now, as of yore is that it cannot con-
vince the people upon which side OF
public questions it really stands. 1t
usually declares one thing and does
another.
For example, what has the DEM
ocratic party done in fulfillmeat OF
Its pledges on the. issues designated
by the Gazette since the party has
had a little chance to show what its
representatives could do? In re,
gard to, the tariff the Democrats in
Congress, have done nothing and
they have set about to do things in
such a manner as to insure defeat
by the checking powers provided by
the constitution. The opportunity
of life time to bring about in a
measure certain tariff reductions
for which they have always con-
tended was absolutely ignored and
instead of getting any reduction
whatever they bungle things in
such a haphazard way as to get
none. And, at the same time the
Taft administration proffered the
most complete and scientific means
of obtaining the information they
ought to have in order to demon
.strate their sincerity on the ques-
ton.
In regard to the trust question,
the only thing the Democrats have
done has been to start few COM
mittees TO work compiling dema-
gogic campaign thunder for use dur
ing the coming summer and fall.
Not line of antitrust legislation
has been passed by them, nor have
they attempted to pass any, thus set
ting themselves in marked contrast
to the government prosecutions car
!rled on at the same time by the
Taft administration and the appli-
cation of the doctrine of personal
guilt" which certain Democratic
