There are times when the world seems a horrid old
Scarce fit for Il person 10 live in;

But your temper in truth has its psychic teeth barred
And its voice KEYED for challenge or warning;
What awful things wouldn't YOU do if YOU dared

And are wholly a different fellow;
Where lately the world seemed so harsh. strange to tell,

But to maintain that Roosevelt is a /

Gates plainly that he had fixed his

Roosevelt been truly solicitous for the

en- different course. He would have
used his great influence in less self

To say that Bopsevelt is the only

The few newspapers of influence in
the country that are backing Roosevelt
for a third term are very busy now.
adays defending their candidate
against two serious charges-drunken-
ness and excessive egotism. AS to the
charge Of drunkenness, little need be
said. The prohibitionists eliminated
Roosevelt from their list of presiden'
tial possibilities when they declared
that 'fhis confessed personal habits
estranged him from the prohibition
fold. To say that a candidate for the
highest office in the world is not an
alcoholic drunlard is to assert a mega
tive virtue. Many OF the acts Of
Roosevelt could better be explained
upon the theory that he was drunk
than in any less charitable way
Whether it is better to be drunk with
liquor or drunk with a craze for pow
er is matter of Individual opinion.
