onel is not a candidate-of course
not, for he says so. And yet his
friends who return from Oyster
Bay declare that the ex president
will accept if the people want
him and press him into the SER
vice. Will the dear people press
him? Some of them, doubtless,
will, many do continually, so that
the man is much annoyed by their
insistency. Oh, yes, some will
press him as they did General
Grant, but the Republican party
will not nominate him at the
coming convention.
Why should the convention
nominate Roosevelt? There is
no good reason for it, there are
powerful reasons against it. We
have in office now a much better
man for the place. The country
at large is satisfied. Why disre-
gard the custom of the nations
number of terms in Office for the
sake of gratifying the ambition
of man who does not want the
place?
Col. Roosevelt is willing to ac-
cept if the people want him. And
should they want him for the
fourth term he might be willing |
to accept. And suppose the dear
people should want him and press
upon him to become a president
for life would he accept? Why
not?
It is better to abide by the hon.
ored custom since Washington's
time giving no man more than
two terms in the presidential
office We believe that the Re-
publican party will so decide and

LaF Follette's Boomlet
Debated.

ator from Wisconsin has CO..
lapsed boomlet on his hands
And it is so utterly wrecked tina
it can not be repaired. 1t has t.
go to the rubbish heap.
The Senator never had tn
shadow of a chance to win tn
nomination. Taft is entitled t.
it by custom and by his thor
oughly Republican and wise ad
ministration. There was no ad
equate reason for trying to pu'
LaFollette in his place. And il
a reason existed for turning down
the President, the Senator from
Wisconsin has not much to COM
mend him for the exalted place.
Has he accomplished anything in
craftsmanship? Nothing that we
know of.
He is a pugnacious politician,
full of vim and fight; but fight
er in the White House is not a
desirable thing. Give us the calm
statesman who can reason and
persuade.
LaFollette went about seeking
support, talking here and there,
until his physical frame showed
signs of collapse, but in all his
efforts he failed to gain.
His friends invited him to New
York to make an address, there
by giving the eastern people a
chance to see and hear the little
giant of Wisconsin. They bore
in mind that Abraham Lincoln of
Illinois had been so invited half
a century ago, and by his mas
terly presentation of historical
truths had won the hearts of the
leading Republicans. Could not
the little giant of Wisconsin do
the like?
He went and spoke to a large
crowd in Carnegie Hall-spoke
well, according to his way of
speaking. He was pugnacious,
alert, and critical, but somehow
no great impression was made in
his favor. After Mr.. Lincoln
made his address people were de-
lighted and saw a great states
man before them-a man for the
chief place in the nation, but
when LaFolIette ended his criti-
cal display in New York people
failed to behold anything more
than a very common but ambi-
tious politician. The statesman
was not visible to the naked eye,
and if they had had a magnify
ing glass they could not have
seen it. A politician he is, not a
statesman.
Another sort of man is not
needed at the White House. It
is almost unthinkable that a great
intelligent nation would turn
down Taft to make room for La
Toilette. Oh, no, the better way
is to hold on to that which is
good.
The contrast between the two
men is so great that the Wiscon-
sin Senator's boomlet was de-
fated. In fact, it never was We
ry much inflated. It lacked po-
wer to soar, and finally it drop

rates are arbitrarily fixed by the
Interstate Railroad Commission on
Interstate traffic, and by the Louisi-
ana Railroad Commission on intra-
state traffic, and concludes that our
argument as to the advantages Of
competition is fatuous. We admit
that the bodies referred to fix the
rates which all common carriers
must respect in SO far as the scale
slides upward, but these rates may
be reduced by the carriers just as
much as conditions, competitive and
otherwise, require, and even a tyro
In business knows that competition
Tor anything has a tendency to
make for a better bargain for the
fellow whose interest happens to be
between. We are driving for better
rates for Lafayette by getting a
competitive line into our town, and
we maintain that such competition
will bring down the rates. Now, dog
matte statements amount to nothing,
lacts and figures avail.
Your correspondent calls for them,

Eunice. La, May 9Th. 1s12.-Dear
Sir: In reference to advantages we,
|of Eunice. received from competition
in transportation will advise as fol-
lows:
Quite naturally, the most import
ant question to be considered is that
of rates. In order not to be too
lengthy we will discuss only the
rates from New Orleans to Eunice,
and will cite the following facts.
Before the Texas & Pacific, the Rock
Island and the Frisco railroads came
to Eunice the rates were:
First class. ,55c per 100 lbs.
Second class, 44c per 100 lbs.
Third class, 41c per 100 lbs.
Fourth class, 30c per 100 lbs.
Today these rates have been cut
down to:
First class, 48c per 100 lbs.
Second class, 4Oc per 100 lbs.
Third class, 36c per 100 lbs.
Fourth class, 27c per 100 lbs.
The car load rates have all been
reduced. and average something like
2 cents per 100 lbs. that is, class
rates. A commodity rate now ap-
plies to sugar, in car loads, the pres
ent rate being TIC per 100 lbs, while
the former rate was 23c. This should
convince anybody that the rates have
been materially reduced owing to
competition.
Outbound rates from Eunice to
nearby towns have been reduced. and
are covered by the following tariffs:
Frisco Lines freight tariff No. COB.
CRI & p Lines freight tariff No.23,-
565-A.
Texas & Pacific Lines freight tariff
No. 16-A.
s. P.-We have not before us, but all
the rates have been very mate
rally reduced, the reduction having
been made since the advent Of the
new railroads to Eunice.
Another important matter to be
considered while discussing the ad-
vantages which accrued to Eunice is
that tha nav ro1la NJ fha vario,,a

set for the town The banks, the
merchants and all citizens getting q
