ROOSEVELT DENOUNCED.
President Tart Uses Sharp Words,
While His Followers Seek
Roosevelt's Aid.

While President Taft has spared no
words to express his disappfoval of
Mr.. Roosevelt, declaring him a menace
to the country, and otherwise denounc-
ing him as unfit for the Office of Presi-
dent, the followers of Mr.. Taft, who
are supporting him in spite of what
Mr.. Roosevelt calls his stolen nomina-
ton, and are agreeing with him in his
denunciation of his predecessor, are
pleading with the followers of the Bull
Moose to assist them in their local cleo
tons Every candidate on the Repub-
lican ticket for State or Congressional
office is. follower of Mr.. Taft, and
that fact warrants the presumption that
every one of them agrees with what
Mr.. Taft says Of Mr. Roosevelt.
Mr.. Taft has stated it as his belief
that Mr.. Roosevelt is dangerous man,
= demagogue, hatterer, an enemy of
the Constitution and Constitutional
government, a friend of bosses,
friend of indicted men, an intimate
friend and benefactor of trusts, die
tator wouid-be perpetual President, q
menace to the country and a man
whose election would mean public
calamity and national crisis. He has
declared or acquiesced in the declara
ton Of others that Mr.. Roosevelt is
mendacious, mean, egotistical, Social
istic, an meter Of class hatred, regard
less Of the law or the Constitution, in
consistent, unlike Abraham Lincoln,
and untruthful.
Every man on the Republican ticket
must join in with the Presidents ex-
:oriation of Mr.. Roosevelt, for he has
made his choice between Taft and
Roosevelt and has chosen Taft Those
who have elected to follow Mr. Roose-
welt are now being relied upon to help
elect these detractors of Mr. Roosevelt,
;hese aiders and abettors of President
Faft in his denunciation of Mr. Roose-
Welt. If. they are sincere in their sup
port of Mr. Roosevelt it would seem
impossible for them to. assist in the
election of those who have been abus-
ing him.

LAWSON IN CONTROL AGAIN
Leads Prosressives Back Into Old
Party Expecting senatorship for
Reward

William NJ O.. Dawson is undoubt-
eddy in control of the Republican party
again, and is counting on the Senator
ship from West Virginia in the event
the Democrats should fail to elect a
majority of the next Legislature. He
has sold out the Progressive party and
expects to vote the Progressives for
the Republican candidates He has
already, IN the name OF the Progress
ives endorsed the reactionary candi-
dates on the Republican ticket, and Will
try to deliver the Progressive vote to
the Stand-pat candidates.
The split in the Republican party last
spring, when those who were opposed
to the old boss-eontroled, ring-ridden
party, which opposed all progress in
government, lett the party to form a
new one which recognized the rights Of
the people to rule, and declared against
the domination OF the bosses, was large
ly engineered, SO far as West Virginia
is concerned, by Mr.. Dawson He had
a purpose back of it. Knowing that
Roosevelt Was immensely popular in
West Virginia and that his policies
were generally approved, he led the
Progressives into the new party Then,
when 1t became apparent that the old
Republican party was utterly destroyed
he engineered deal with the Repub-
lican leaders by which he was to de-
liver the Progressive vote to the Re
publican candidates and in return was
to get the support OF the Republicans
Tor the Senatorship.
The Progressive has no chance to
vote for candidates of his party this
year. Having left the Republican party
in good faith he is confronted now
with the choice of voting for Repub-
kcans or Democrats, as heretofore
with no candidates Of his own party on
the ticket. Dawson has led him back
to the place whence he started in the
effort to get away from the old Re
publican policies, and unless he votes
for the Democrats he will be assisting
the same old ring Of political bosses
only that Dawson is now back at the
head of the ring.
In view of this, It is not strange that
many Progreseives are going to vote
the Democratic ticket straight.

HINTS OF DIVIDENDS GIVEN
President Of Board Of Control Suggests
Returns for Campaign Contributors.

The principal objection to the service
of James S. Lakin,, presiding officer OF
The State Board of Control as chair
man of the Republican State Executive
Committee, aside from its bringing the
Board into politics, is that he is in a
position to use his influence as purchas-
ing agent of the State and employer Of
the help of the State institutions for
political purposes
Mr.. Lakin has sent out letter ask
ing for campaign contributions, in
which he asks this question And do
you not believe that contribution to
our fund would be dividend-paying
Dne to you in your business?"
However honest Mr.. Lakin may be,
and however proper his intentions may
,e, this paragraph from his appeal for
funds shows clearly the improperly OF
an official with his powers taking part
IN political campaign for any political
party, and strongly bears out the con-
tention that his occupancy of both po-
,ition offers ample opportunity to
bring the State into politics if he SO
desires.

RUNNING ON THE TAFT TICKET
Roosevelt Says Those Who Do SO Are
Unfit Tc Associate with Honest
Men.

At Lamar, Mo, few days ago,
Theodore Roosevelt saw man ii the
crowd carrying Taft banner Point
ing his finger at the man with the band
ner, Mr.. Roosevelt said 'Any man
who supports the receiver of stolen
COOS stands on level with the receiver
Of the stolen goods. He is dishonest
man and is unfit to associate with hon
est men,
Mr.. Roosevelt denominates Mr.. Taft
the receiver of stolen goods, and as
every candidate on the Republican State
and Congressional ticket is supporting
Mr. Taft, he evidently considers every
candidate on that ticket as dishonest
and, unfit to associate with honest men.
What do his followers think Of it? If
they can not support Mr.. TAFT, how can
they support those who do support
him?

ROOSEVELT, TAFT AND The
TRUSTS.
(By Senator Robt. NJ. La Toilette. )

2 The conditions that the people
2 complain Of in this country have
2 grown up mainly in the last dozen
2 or fifteen years. The era of con-
9 centration and the upbuilding of
= the trusts and combinations began
2 shortly after the enactment of the
2 Dingley law in 1897.
2 On the day that Theodore
. Roosevelt was made President
9 there were I4o trusts and COM
2 binations in the United States.
2 When he turned this government
9 over to William H. Taft as Presi-
2 dent there were 10000 great plants
2 OF this country organized in com
2 binations. On the day Roosevelt
2 became President the aggregate
2 capital of these combinations was
. $A784,ooo, 900; on the day that he
2 turned the administration over to
9 his successor it was $3I,672, ooo, 900,
2 more than 70 per cent of which
3 was water.
. Its power has gone on growing
. and spreading, the numbers multi
. plying. There has been no d. {

long ago. In plain woros, Mexico
deserves good spanking, and will
receive it from the state of Texas if
she does not be good. The country
has never leaned toward the United
States in commercial matters. A
preference has been shown for other
countries, but the United States is
heavily interested in Mexico. Mines
and mineral lands are owned by
American citizens, grazing grounds
are controlled by American cattle
men, money is invested in various
trades and business concerns of the
City of Mexico and other places in
the country, and these interests
must be guarded by the government.
1t is unfortunate that Americans
have so far interested themselves in
the rebellion as to take an active
part in it, and they should expect
to be treated like all other rebellious
subjects are treated in times of war,
but for the other American citizens,
they are entitled to the fullest pro-
lection that the government can ex-
tend to them. Commercial Appeal.

Female Anti-Suffragettes

Many women, from whom the
public hears little, are deeply con-
cerned over this female suffrage
question. A letter that lies before
us states their tragic situation sub
stantially as follows: The United
States and England are being cajoled
and heckled into granting votes to
females. Able and energetic women
are constantly pressing this proposal
upon the masculine public as the
cause of womankind; and when did
woman ever fail to carry point
with man if only she stuck to it?
Look at Eve and Adam! Femae
suffrage, our correspondent urges.

Female suffrage, however, has been

female oppo nents of suffrage agitate
in order to prove that agitation is
unbecoming in women? Can they
parade ard massmeet and petition
and lobby for the purpose of dem
onstrating that woman's true
sphere is the home? Can they seek
the public ear in rivalry with the
suffragettes who are imperilling
wonan's whole position in society by
seeking the public ear?
The situation is tragic; but very
likely our correspondent takes too
dark view of it. English suffrag-
cites have been doing more this
winter to delay female suffrage than
any women opponents of suffrage
could possibly do. Saturday Eve

THE MEXICAN ULTIMATUM

After an exhibition of unseemly
patience, the United States has
handed a definite ultimatum to
Mexico in regard to Americans who
happen to be within the borders of
the turbulent republic.
Mexico must keep hands off of
American subjects. If they are
foolish enough to mix up in the re-
bellion, which is not at all unlikely,
Mexico is given the right to punish.
but punish in a legitimate way and
not as wantonly as has been proven
in the past.
1t may seem a little harsh that a
country under the present trouble
Mexico is enduring should be for
hidden from Furnishing rebellious
subjects to the limit of the law, but
it is well that the United States
should care for its own.
Soldiers of fortune stand the pun
ishment that they deserve. 1t is
different If the Americans identified
with the outbreak should fight for
their own country, but they are not.
They are mixing up in affairs that
do not concern them. They are as.
suming an nnecessaryresponsibility
They are fighting for the money in
it or through the pure love of ex-
citment. They must necessarily
realize that in the fight against a
recognized government, that if they
are captured they deserve the full
punishment that is usually accorded
in times of war, and in this Madero
is probably right, for it is the only
way to suppress rebellion. In
protecting American interests the
full measures of precaution should
be taken. The government has too
long delayed in declaring itself.
America has been a good friend
of Mexico. The United States gov
ernment has been more than usually
patient. Outrages have been toler-
ated that should have been resented
