GREATER THAN THE MAN

The Republican party has always
been greater than any man connected
with it, as it is today. Presidents
from its ranks have been assassinated
and many of its great leaders have
passed on, but the party has survived
the shock, and facing the front has
moved steadily forward.
This fact Colonel Roosevelt failed
to recognize or appreciate, and while
indebted to the old party for all the
honors possible to bestoW, he is now
engaged in campaign of destruction,
and all because of personal ambition
inspired by the notion that he Is
greater than the party, and more COM
petent than the old organization which
he deserted.
The primary campaign, which he
conducted with so much vigor, was
directed against Taft, the man, and
for time the party was lost to view,
but as time advances the fact is
slowly dawning upon the people that
the Republican party was a mighty
factor in the nation, long before the
colonel appeared on the surface, and
the belief is growing that it will con-
tinue to exist long after he is for
gotten.
President Taft is unfortunate in
lacking personal popularity, and he
may have gained nothing in this re-
spect, since the campaign opened. 1t
is possible that had the election been
held within a month from the date of
the Chicago convention, that the ire
pressible colonel might have carried
the country by storm, but not so to-
day.
The people have had time to think,
and little observation has caused
many of them to believe that the big
Il" represents about all there is of
the Bull Moose movement, masque-
rading under the stolen title of the
Progressive party"
Mr.. Bryan was inspired with a sim
liar ambition, a few years ago, and
all that he accomplished was to wreck
the Democratic party, but 1t survived
the shock and after a dozen years,
has again come into it's own.
Mr.. Roosevelt may defeat the Re
publican party this year, but he can
not destroy it. The brand of social
ism which he advocates is not the
kind of material for the foundation
of party, and the personal ambition,
which inspires him, will not long in
huence the people.
The party of Lincoln, Garfield and
Mckinley has a record of which any
man may be proud. 1t carried the
nation through the dark days of civil
saved the honor of the nation when
bankruptcy threatened, and has so
guided the great ship of state that
progress and prosperity have gone
forward, hand in hand, to bless the
people.
And yet the great "I' who swings
like a planet on the horizon today,
says, Il am no longer a Republican,
but a Progressive" What he means
is that he Is no longer satisfied to
remain in the ranks, loyal supporter
of the party that made him, but must
have party of his own to pay him
perpetual homage. The scheme is too
gauzy for serious consideration, and
this the colonel will discover, as the
game progresses.-Jan Gazette.

VAUDEVILLE AT THE ArRooME,

For the first time in it's history vaudeville will be inangurated at ths Airdome, beginning Monday night two shows nightly, with a change ot program twice weekly, Monday and Thursday. In case of rain the entire show will be transferred to the Audi torium theater, where every act and the entire show will be given in full
 For the opening week an exception ally strong bill has been booked as it is the intention of MT. Head to maintain the same high class acts that he gave the Princess patrons.
 The headliner of this all-star pro gram is a musical act of unusual ex- cellence. It is that of the Three Weston Sisters, a musical offering of more than passing interest, for these girls have won international fame through the excellence of their achievements. Both instrumental and vocal selections are introduced and the solo work by the different mem bers shows that they are finished mu- sicians on the respective instruments
 During the 15 minutes that Junius and Farley will hold the stage, the audience will indeed have jolly good time, for a heater, classier or more interesting duo it is hard to find in vaudeville today They have an ex- fellent selection of songs. which they put over in inimitable style Their dancing is graceful, and the pretty. new stpes which they introduce are a source of delight to their auditors.
 Meneti and Jerome comedy aero bats, will start the show off ia rip roaring good shape Acrobats they are. and they perform in lightning quick order the best and most dit- icult acrobatic feats ever introduced. Then, too. they justly earn the title of comedians. for they interspeise @ throughout their more hazardous per- f5tnrances q nne or bright comedy which is irresistible.
 The Zamora Family of aerialists will offer a novel aerial act-novel because few have ever attempted to perform the stunts which these artists do. They do in the air what few ac- rObats attempt on the ground, and do it so accurately, and so eearlessly that they cause a sensation. especially among the feminine spectators.

WHlTTlNGToN PARK.

Ever see snake egg? No Ever hear of a snake in captivity laying several eggs, or even one? It is a very rare occurrence, yet tha' is what happened yesterday morning at tie new gator farm on Whittiagton ave nue.
 Among the many other reptiles and animals confined therein are several species of snakes. and among these is a blue racer from Texas. This is apartieularly large snake of it's spe- cies and has attracted no end of at tention because of it's length aud col. or While apparently harmless, .he blue racer is said to be one Of the deadliest of snakes. and are therefore given wide berth usually by the ay- craze person.
 Manager Owens, of the new gator farm. has had a pit constructed in which he keeps the snakes of the va rious species, and imagine his sur prise this morning when he looked over into the pit and there in the sec lion allotted tc the blue racer he saw seven shining white egga which had been laid by the mother snake.
