Similarity of Pre-Nomina- tion Fight in Early Days to That of Present Re-
 called.
HOW GARFIELD WON
Like Roosevelt of Today Grant Was a Soldier of Achievement and Made
 Tour of Old World.

Every political student who has delved into those musty archives wherein are kept the records that tell of great political battles past and gone must be struck with the similarity of the pre-nomination fight waged by Colonel Theodore Roosevelt. in this year of our Lord 1912, and that conducted by General Ulysses F.. Grant, exactly thirty-two years ase.
 Grants campaign was for the Re publican nomination for the third term after lapse of four years-so is Roosevelt's.
 Grant was a soldier of achievement as is the hero of San Juan Hill.
 Grants campaign followed aeworld girding trip, during which he received the welcome and praise of strange sovereigns ana peoples-Roosevelt has but lately returned from his African hunt and triumphant tour through Europe.
 And Grant was the popular idol of the people-a claim made for Colonel
