La Toilette Against Roosevelt.
Robert M. La Toilette, United
States senator from Wisconsin,
foremost progressive Republican
in the upper house of congress,
is against Theodc-e Roosevelt for
a third term BECAUSE he says,
Roosevelt while president, coop
Grated with the trusts instead of
cooperating with him in his fight
against the trusts.
"On the day that Theodore
Roosevelt was made president of
the United States" declares La
Toilette, there were 149 trusts
and combinations in the United
States. When he turned the
government over to William H.
Taft there were 10,02O great
trusts and combinations.
Nv hen Theodore Roosevelt
entered the White House the
trusts and combinations had a
capitalization of So, 784, 900, 600.
On the day that he turned the
administration over to Taft it
was $31, ,672, 600, 900. More than
70 per cent Of it was watered.
I do not believe that the man
who was president for seven
years while the greatest trust
growth in this country occurred,
at the very times of all times
in the history of the Sherman
law when it could have been
made productive in destroying
trust organization. that destroys
competition and places tn e
American people in the power
of combinations-I do not believe
that the man who was president
during that time is the man to
find the way out now."

elements of the population that
believe that the future holds
promises Of better things in our
social order. His victory is the
victory Of an ideal as well fas
the victory Of the personally. 1t
is plain that the republic needs
the democratic party as a compact
and organized force fo: guaran-
teeing juster and truer forms of
government. The supr e m est
need Of that party is a real leader,
and we have found him, as some
how he is always to be found in
national crisis in the person of
Woodrow Wilson.
I venture to predict that the
campaign conducted by him will
lift the whole discussion and ten
dency Of our government upon a
loftier plane than 1t has been in
a generation. It was this feeling
widespread among the masses
that Woodrow Wilson possessed
the qualities of leadership needed
by modern democracy that won
for him inch by inch throughout
the weary days at Baltimore,
painfully slow. but stardy as a
tide, the final approval of the
hosts of the democracy.
Thoughtful Americans every
where have been feeling that
such a leader must first of all
have knowledge and brains, and
be able to see around things and
beyond things and back Of things.
Secondly, he must have moral
fervor and steadiness of aim.
Sympathy must have a place in
his heart for plain men who bear
the burden of the world. He
must actually love justice and use
it to the rich as we'll as to the
poor, to the high-placed as well
as to the lowly. He must, above
all things, have courage, moral,
physical, intellectual, all the sorts
of courage there are, for he will
be tried to the breaking point,
and then tried again.
Through these heated precon-
vention days, the feeling has been
slowly gathering thatin Wood
row Wilson the country has found
a rare man, such as democracy
has not found to its hand in
some generations. with a pro-
found knowledge of human gov
erment and the working of mod
ern society. His very radicalism,
and every searcher after truth
must hit at the root sometimes,
is thoughtful radicalism temp
cred by learning and patience
and the long look ahead. It has
been demonstrated that he has
faith in himself and capacity to
live alone with his ideals and
ability to refuse to compromise
with the half truth or the self
seeker. Is has been seen that
he knew how to teach men what
he knew with quick and winning
charm, and he has demonstrated
above everything the possession
of a brand of a calm and capable
courage that has touched a soft
spot in the hearts of a courage
loving people. What American
executive Of recent times has
exhibited greater power to intrust
the public mind, to win public
confidence. to gain fundamental
results against great odds?
There is a noble compensation
and sort of dramatic quality
in the thought that in this latest

The custom, almost universally xol-
lowed, of giving the morning mea. be-
fore water, is not very Objectionable,
either theoretically or practically At
this time there is no depletion of ndid,
consequently the horse is not very
thirsty and does not drink rapidly or
excessively and apparently very little
evil results from this method. How
ever, the writer much prefers that the
horse should have an opportunity to
drink what is good for him before the
morning meal.
Personally, / much prefer keeping
horses, both summer and winter, in
an open shed, with large water tank
in the yard, to tying them by the
head in barn.
Not only in giving water to horses
must care be exercised but in every
other way.
Many good driving horse has his
years of usefulness cut short by being
left in the hands of some person who
does not know how to take care Of a
horse or does not care what happens
to the horse that happens to come In
to his hands.
One of the most common ways Of
injuring driving horse is by driving
him hard in cool weather, and when
the horse has been brought into q
sweat, leaving him uncovered and ex-
posed to cold winds or to drafts In
a stable.
1T is seldom necessary to drive a
horse so hard on. cool day that he
will be in a sweat. In warm weather
it is different, as the horse, then
sweats with little exertion.
When the horse has been driven un-
til he is covered with foam and sweat,
he should be taken into stable. rub
bed down with whisps of hay or piece
OF rough cloth, and then blanketed.
The neglect Of such precautions has
resulted in many a horse catching a
cold that has proved serious.
Driving is science itself, and there
are many mature people who have not
learned how to drive horse. They
have no idea as to the amount of work
he is able to perform without lessen
ing his vitality.
1t must be remembered that horse
as well as man, is limited as to what
he can do.
