 PRESENTS HISTORY

"The third term party" and the third termer' are epithets intended to oe opprobriOus, applied to the Progress ,ive party and it's standard bearer. This is not a sensible argument against the fitness of Colonel Roose yelt for the presidency. It is an ap- peal and very foolish one to popular prejudice. The presidency of the Unit d States is not prize to be handed ,round to the greatest possible num- ,er of American citizens. If that were 50, the tenure of office would be linn ted to, say, year, a month, or, per iaps, a day, the presidency being re- ,tricted to a single term Thus the lream of every citizen of becoming resident would be brought nearer real zatiOn.
 But what the American people want is fitness and efficiency. We an conceive of situation in which a hird consecutive term would not be | good thing. But a third term of a resident who so enjoys the confidence If his countrymen as to be able 10 secure it, after an interval of four years, would bring into the office an experience and a ripe judgment that would be beneficial to the nation.
 This matter is very ably presented by the New York Globe as follows:
 "Is the rule or tradition against all third terms or merely against cOnSecu- tive third terms? It is difficult to avoid the conclusion that Colonel Roosevelt, historically, has the better of the argument.
 Flight men have been twO-term pres idents. Of these Washington died be fore he was four years out of office,

The following is only a partial list of the most important work done dur ing Governor Johnson's administra- tion:
 Establishment of direct primary nominating elections, including pref. erential vote on president and direct election of delegates to the National Convention.
 The adoption of the Oregon system for election of the candidate for Unit ed States Senator who receives the highest popular vote.
 Statewide application of the initia- tive, referendum and recall
 Non-partisan election of judges.
 County as well as city home rule.
 Revision of criminal procedure.
 Appropriation for a reformatory for first offenders.
 An employers liability act, providing for wOrkmen's compensation arising out of industrial accidents.
 The adoption of woman suffrage.
 The full-crew bill.
 A pay check bill prohibiting the pay ment of wages in any non-negotiable form.
 Commission form of government for the cities.
 If Governor Johnson is elected vice president on the Progressive platform, he will use his influence to have these same laws written on the statute books of the United States.

Jefferson, Madison, Monroe and Jack son were all seventy years or more old when they were four years out of of flee and were thus ineligible through age, as Jefferson wrote concernins himself Grant, Cleveland and Roose-. welt are the only two-term presidents who left the presidents office young enough to consider coming back after a four years absence. They are the only ones who have practically faced the question of whether the two-term rule applied to non-consecutive terms.
 Grant answered that it did not by becoming candidate for non-cOnsec- utiye third term. Cleveland answered that it did not by making no secret of his willingness and desire for non- consecutive third term. Roosevelt is thus following precedent rather than violating it. All the two-term presi- dents that we have had who were young enough to consider the presi- dency's burden have been candidates for non-consecutive third terms"

SETTLING QUESTION
 IF DOES CRIME PAY''

What shall it profit a group of polit- ical banditti to steal two convention delegates and lose thirteen electors?
 The foregoing problem in advanced mathematics is submitted to Penrose, Root, Barnes, ct: al., who deprived the Republican party of California of a part of it's legitimate representation at Chicago, and who are now them selves rightfully refused any represen- tation whatever in California.
 The thieves are punished according to their deserts. The punishment fits the crime.

ROBERT $, FISHERS CAMPAIGN
 TOUR |S PROVING SUCCESSFUL
PROGRESSIVE CANDIDATE HAS BEEN EVERYWHERE WARMLY RE cEWED-AAs ESTABLISHED A STATEWIDE REPUTATION AS A MAN-PLAcEs PRINCIPLES PERSONAL HETEROGENEOUS PARTY AND OPPOSITION PRESS.

PHOENIX, Oct. 15.-Robert s. Fish CT, candidate for congress, returned to this city from the south yesterday morning having covered about two thirds of his itinerary in the state campaign. Everywhere he has receiv- ed a most cordial reception. He has proven himself whirl-wind campaign CT and has established a statewide .reputation as fighting man. Talking at times to calm assemblies in halls, at other times to boisterous crowd2 outside, he has in each case made his message clear and forcible. He has placed the principle so high above the personal in his campaign for congress that everywhere he has been commend ed both by party and opposition press. Starting in the city of Phoenix with the largest crowd ever accorded To- cal candidate, he next went to Yava- pal county and addressed two great meetings at Prescott and Jerome, which were said by the local manager to be the strongest campaign address es ever delivered in that vicinity. Next he followed the northern line of the Santa Fe throughout the mining coun- try, the sheep, cattle and lumber coun- tries, directing his message in each of these places to the bettering of b. cal conditions. His words were heard with great interest. Always avoiding bitter personalities, he has hammered at the basic facts without regard to who might be in the way.
 Yuma county was next touched, and there he found an overwhelming sen timent in favor of Roosevelt. There they realize that Roosevelt is the fath- e.. of reclamati ,i and that the P,o-

gIessive party has tLe only sound so- lrtion for the pI Ioblen of tariff and the high cost of living.
 But it remained for the mining coun- try in the south, including Santa Cruz and Cochise counties to give the can didate the greatest reception of his trip so far. He showed how Wilson's entire record proves him oblivious of the real needs of the people who toll. and unconscious of the industrial prob lens of the age. He told the miners in Bisbee of his own early life, when by hard labor with his hands he had earned bread, and put them at once upon ease with the feeling that he rn- derstaod their problems. He was re- ceived with hearty applause and scores of persons stood up in addition to those seated while for more than an hour he told them of the great truths of the Progressive party.
 AS the later days of the campaign are passing, it becomes more and more apparent that the great mass of the common people are remembering that Roosevelt has always been their long time friend. To Arizona he has been a faithful helper. The two great irrigation projects of the Salt River and Yuma valleys bespeak his unflag- ging interest. The unparalleled rec ord of Governor Johnson during those eighty-five wonderful days in which he reformed California law appeals everywhere.
 MT. Fisher has made much of the feat that he believes a congressman should be attorney in fact for his con stituents, knowing his clients first. last and all the time.

It should be borne in mind by those persons who may have been impressed by the speeches recently delivered by William J. Bryan, that they will be unable to recall single word or ar gument in favor of Professor Wilson that is not applicable in much great CT degree to Roosevelt. In fact, Bry- an was singularly free from adulation of Wilson, employing most of his time in praising the Democratic platform, of which he is alleged to be the au- thor.
 But the platform is just as weak as the Democratic nominee, particularly when it is remembered that it declares

GOVERNOR HARDLY
 HAS 4 POLITICAL RECORD 1T ALL
THE POLITICAL RECORD HIRAM JOHNSON PROGRESSIVE
 DIDATE PRESIDENCY PRESENT GOVERNOR CALIFORNIA, ONE; GOLDEN STATE WILLING STRENUOUS.

Governor Johnson has been in pOli- tics hardly two years. He put Abe Ruef in jail Then he entered politics to put the Southern Pacific Railway, Company out of politics. For the for ty years preceding his election as Governor of California, the Southern raciIic Railway had bossed the state of California. A man was needed to put it out of politics, and Johnson did 50. He was inaugurated in January, 1911, and within three months he had lone what other governors had failed to do, in the forty years which had preceded him.
 Johnson did this because he is hon.. st, and because he is fighter Dur ing his campaign. he covered more than eighteen thousand miles in the tate of California, telling every voter what he (Johnson) would do, if cleo
 ed. AS soon as elected he began
 he work of reforming the state which others had been unable to reform. He secured passage by the legislature lf what Theodore Roosevelt described IS the most important legislation ever -nacted at a single session by any American legislature. What other states have been struggling for years to get, Johnson's leadership secured for California in three short months, and thereby transformed it from the most reactionary to the most progress sive state in the Union.

 LIKEWISE sTRkE-iN THE SENSE PHYSICAL WHITE INDIAN-wE LOVE HIM FOR THE ENEMIES

There has been little, if any, Roosevelt change, however. The Roosevelt of 1884 is the Roosevelt of 1912 He was young when he went to Al bany. Bursting into the legislature he possessed all youthful confidence Indeed, he owned double quantity, for to his lack of years and experience must be added that complained oi force, which, in his case, still goes fal beyond triphammers in every mark of the downright
 Strong not only in the mental, but in the physical, as in tower, young MT. Roosevelt, arriving at Albany, fell back, it seems, upon his fist-his heao having failed-upon at least brace o. legislative occasions. It resulted in good for MT. Roosevelt, good for the state.
 A Tammany member became dis pleased with the Roosevelt school oi oratOry. The Tammany one expressed views-in whispers-concerning Mr Roosevelt which, on the Bowery, would nave meant war. MT. Roosevelt over heard the whispers. "I shall see you presently in the cor ridor," he snapped. Mir. Roosevelt did see the Tammany member in the corridor. He com memorated the meeting by smitine that misguided whelp of the Tiger hir and thigh.
 Later the smitten one lay in his bed at the Delaven. His friend, who knew nothing of that corridor collision came in. Beholding the bandages the friend became as one planet-struck He stood speeches. at the others bedside, tacitly counting the wounds.
 What would you do?" moaned the injured one, putting weak hand to the bandages.
 What would I do?" repeated the friend, impressively. "Td sue the road"
 Following that corridor episode Mr. Roosevelt-though not agreed with was heard with respect. Again in a committee room there came triumph to the physical. A bill was before the committee which the railroads did not like. The orders ] were to bottle it up" Three vs. "Railroad Eight"
 There were three on the committed opposed to that "bottling." These were Mr. Roosevelt, an aged agricul- Turist from Herkimer, and young Democrat from Brooklyn.
 The honest trio were helpless as against a railroad eight.
 MT. Roosevelt reminded the eight that their "bottling" would excite gus picion. They grinned a dry grin, but were not otherwise moved
 Let me see that bin a moment, said Mir. Roosevelt to the clerk of the committed
 l The request was proffered with all imaginable sweetness. The bill was handed over. MT. Roosevelt buttoned it inside his coat.
 My friends" he observed, address ing the railroad eight, "it is railroad money which keeps this measure from being reported to the assembly. I've got it in my pocket.
 Unless majority agrees instantly to report it, I shall take it into the assembly and make a minority report

We love him for the enemies he's made. Who oppose Mir. Roosevelt? The Morgans, the Carnegies, the Arch bolds, the Spreckleses, the Ryans, the Dukes, the Belmonts, the Havemeyers, the Armours' the Rockefeller, all of the gold-heaping tribe of criminal priv ilege.
 The arguments which teach them to hate him are not public, but private. They look in their pockets to find every one of them.
 Money is never patriot, and com monly a fool. There is a mean logic which too frequently goes with mon- ey, and folk-I write the rule-are prone to consult their, pocketbooks when deciding their public duty.
 If the man be killing pigs, or build ing boats, or forging armor plates, ,sor loaning money, he is apt to regard as right those public conditions, whether of war, peace, or murder, or pillage, or liberty dead. or law defied, or consti- tuition invaded and set at naught, which flow a profit into his purse. Also those he will sustain.
 Eyes Always on Gain
 He does not care, though king be in the White House and Satan himself that King, so it will swell his bank account.
 He feels no deeper than the dollar, and goes no further than the day.
 The name of these is legion. As blinded slaves of selfishness they jos tle each other as they crowd toward that mess of pottage for which their birthright is for sale.
 It is to the glory of MT. Roosevelt that, with this the plain portrait of what influences have for twenty years controlled the Republican party, he has exhibited virtues which in their integrities haven't been in fashion since 1776.
 MT. Roosevelt is wholly honest. And his honesty goes to the mark.
 No self interest would serve either to defect or abate it.
 Half the opposition oratory and more than half the cartoons sheer at MT. Roosevelt for his exaltation oi the physical.
 It is as though they thought that bodily health was an offense and that in what concerns the public only the sick are to be counted as among the 'safe and sane"
 Divided by the Bathtub No friend of MT. Roosevelt will con- tradict these orations criticise these cartoons.
 Let it be granted then, that the big difference between MT. Roosevelt and Cheyenne is difference of bathtub tailors and cooks. Let it go at that. In the sense physical he is fairly a white Indian. And with the last that is not detraction, but encomium.
 MT. Roosevelt can reason, can de eide. He can likewise strike. Also the latter, as a method of disputation has been found convincing where the other failed.
 Go back to the middle sos for the Roosevelt Albany story. It was the Roosevelt story in New York, in Washington, at Santiago.
 It will continue to be the Roosevelt story-and this should color the gen eral cheek with the hue of hope-until death writes ''finis" beneath the Roose welt name.
