FIR. Roosevelt Shot.

Everybody is pleased that the
assassin who attempted to take
the life os Ex-President Roose-
welt in Milwaukee last Monday
night was not successful. Mr..
Roosevelt will likely be able TO
take part again in the campaign
before its close. The man who
shot him was laboring under
the Authorization that he must
avenge the death of President
Mckinley by taking the life of
Mr.. Roosevelt.
Much has been said by many
men on all sides of the questions
involved in this campaign that
has had no place in such dis
cussions as ought to be carried
on in an effort TO reach a wise
conclusion on such a vital mat
ter as the selection of "A Pres
ident of these United States, and
it is not surprising that some
of the men who have been most
responsible for the efforts to
turn the contest into one of
personal abuse and misrepre-
sentatlon of those who do not
agree with them should imme-
diately seize upon the act of
the miserable creature who
attempted to kill ex-President
Roosevelt as adding to or taking
from the reasons that should
influence the American people
in voting for either Woodrow
Wilson. William Howard Taft
or Theodore Roosevelt for the
Presidency of the United States
1t is a great pity that Pres
ident Taft and Col. Roosevelt
stumped the country during the
Presidential primary, and en-
gagged in such a war of abuse as
TO arouse the passions of those
who are weak and susceptible.

suspicion of demagogy. He is
telling the American people
what in his opinion the Govern
ment should do to promote the
general welfare and what he as
President would do to influence
government.
These speeches are as happy
in manner as in substance. They
reveal Governor Wilson as a
sane, self-controlled leader
moving along the line of clear,
definite progressiveprinciples of
government. BY his conduct
on the stump we know what his
conduct in the White House will
be. BY the way he discusses
public questions now we know
how he will discuss them after
he becomes President.
If it were possible for the
National Committee to collect
all the speeches made in this
campaign by Governor Wilson,
President Taft and Mr.. Roose-
Welt and print them in a single
volume, it would be the most
convincing Democratic cam
paign document that could be
circulated. No intelligent, un-
prejudiced voter could read the
Wilson speeches in comparison
with the Taft and Roosevelt
speeches without realizing
Woodrow Wilson's overwhelm-
ing qualifications for the Pres
idency.

How Taft Loves The

speech recently made by Presi-
dent William II. Taft shows his
great love for his Colored
Brother just at this time when

dures when suffering from the
contemptuous insult of white
men not at all his equal either

of injustice that has oftentimes
burned itself into his breast
when he realizes that his rights
have been trampled upon and
his claims to fair treatment re-
jected solely because of color
of his skin. President Will

1t is barely possible that the
many thousands of white men
whom the President thinks are

The registration figures in Baltimore
are particularly interesting because
they afford definite evidence of party
changes since four year ago. The total
registration is more than 5000 less than
four years ago. The Republican regis
tration is nearly 10000 less; the Demo-
Gratis gained 5000. and the number that
declined to indicate their party allie
glance decreased 5000. The Progressives
who registered numbered less than 5000
in a total Of more than $4,000. In
Baltimore, as in so many other places.
the Democrats gain. the Republicans
lose and the Progressives make a poor

Wilson'S Speeches
rom the New York World.

From the New York World.
Governor Wilson's speeches
are an oasis in a campaign des-
ert. Ii has been many a year
since a candidate for President
made such a clear, convincing
appeal to the reason and in
telligence of the American peo-
pie.
These speeches are a model
of campaign discussion. In
tone and temper they are exact
ly what the utterances of a
candidate for President should
be. They are in complete har-
mony with the dignity of the
greatest elective office known
to human history. They are
the utterances of a statesman,
not the tricky appeals of an
ambitious politician.
Governor Wilson makes no
argument to prejudice or pas
sion or class hatred. He abuses
nobody. He makes no personal
attacks upon Mr.. Taft or Mr..
Roosevelt. He ignores all per-
sonal attacks made upon him
self. He calls nobody a liar or
a thief or a crook or a pick
pocket or a burglar or a scoun-
drel. He does not trim his
principles to meet local antip-
sf..rsies, but discusses the same
.tions and the same issues
Kansas and Colorado that he
A ..ass ,'usses in New York and New

these being school chums and asso-

Durango and from out of town.

and appropriate service, consisting of
prayer and brief talk on "Christ,

of Messrs. H. C. Stultz and D. Sharp

beginning and close of the service.
