WHAT FARLEY THINKS OF TEDDY
Wants To Know of Anything the
Colonel Ever Did for the People

BY James Farley, the News-Bud-
gets staff correspondent.
AS the political pot is now boil
ing, we would like to say word
to our citizens in general and our
Brother Farmers in particular.
Roosevelt is credited with saying
that Wilson cannot handle the trusts.
Roosevelt, having been president for
seven years should know what he is
talking about, and in one sense We
agree with him that Wilson cannot
handle the trusts as the colonel has
done, that is, to let the trusts ham
die him while he or his friend han
dies the trusts money
Of course, the Colonel denies any
knowledge of the trusts money be-
ing used to seat him in the presiden-
tial chair, but when many men, both
in and out of the trusts, tell us
(some of them under OATH that it
was trust money that elected him in
1904, we must take his denial with
grain of salt. If there is no fire,
whence comes all this smoke?
1t appears to be more than smoke
when the representative of the Stan
dard Oil Co. makes oath that his
company donated $125,000 to- that
campaign The colonel says Archbold
is a liar. but whether he is entitled
to membership in the Ananias club
Or not, the public cannot bur think
that there is or has been more or
less of a deal between the trusts and
the colonel When we recall the tilt
the colonel had with the late rail-
way magnate, Hartman, the state
sentatives paid the colonel mid
night visit at the white house, this
alone should convince all fair-mind-
ed men that there. was a deal be-
| tween the colonel and the trusts. Eel
| low citizens, if any of you were be-
| ing prosecuted for an offense you
knew you were guilty of, would you
approach a judge who is a stranger
| to you and ask him to annul the
charge? We think not. But, on the
other hand, if you had given large
sum of money which had largely con-
tributed to said judges election, and
lot having more compunction to do
wrong than the trusts have, you
would not hesitate to ask him to
annul your case.
Just so with the Standard Oil
trust, they thought there was some
thing coming to them from the col
Ionel This is one of the ways, in
fact, it is the only way the colon
ell ever made a serious move to 'bus'
the trusts" Just as the gambler at
tempts to break the faro bank. YET
he is denouncing poor old Bill Taf
(his own creation) for following il
his footsteps.
| This is Teddy, the Trust Buster,
that is now blowing his horn ant
asking you to give him anothe
chance.
AS to the colonel doing anything
Ifor the common people during th'
r seven years as president, We har
been unable to discover it.
If any of those who are now shout
ing for the colonel can enlighten us
as to anything he has done whicl
, has benefited the people outside o
! the trusts, we shall be pleased {
have them do so.

Keynote of the Campaign

The keynote of the Wisconsin cam
paign has been sounded by Senator
LaFollette. Branding the Democratic
ticket and platform in Wisconsin
as an alliance between anti-Bryan,
| anti Wilson, tory Democrats and
Stalwart Republicans" Senator La
| Toilette in this weeks issue of La
Follette's Weekly Magazine asks for
the support of Wisconsin citizens for
| the Republican state ticket. There
| is pointed paragraph in which the
Senator shows the achievements in
| Wisconsin during the incumbency of
Governor McGovern.
Both the platform and the state
ticket of the Republican party de-
serve the loyal support of progress
sives in Wisconsin" declares the
party editorial.
The editorial opens with state
! ment that the Republican party is
an instrument with which govern
| ment is made to represent the will
OF the people. He shows how the pe0-
pie have been placed in CONTROL by
the emasculation of patronage. the
| crushing of the secret lobby and the
roofing out of other devices of mis-
| government.
80 in Wisconsin the Republican
party stands today the party OF pro
gress, the party of fundamental
democracy, the party OF the peo-
ple." continues a part of the editor
| ial
1.-TWO years ago, the Republican
1 party went to the voters with a
| platform declaring the will OF the
people shall be the law OF the land,
and containing most advanced and
constructive program of political and
industrial reform. 1t was returned
control by an overwhelming majority.
Now the Republican party stands
again before the voters Of the state.
1t asks for a continuance OF service
on the faithful performance of every
promise made in 1910 and the guar
4 antee of further achievements toward
political, industrial and educational
democracy.
'The issue is clear. On the one
side. the Democratic party, with
ticket and platform born of an
alliance between anti-Bryan, anti-Wil-
son, tory Democrats and reactionary
'Stalwart Republicans. On the other
side, the Republican party with a
long record of progressive achieve
lments that has been the guide and
inspiration for the progressive move.
lment throughout the nation, and
with candidates who assure stead
fast continuance of constructive, en-
Heightened progress.
Support of the Republican state
ticket means support of the Progress
sive movement not only in WiscOn-
sin but also in the nation--where the
Wisconsin way of making the DOM
inent party serve the public will be
destined soon to become the national
way"

II happened thus: The fight Of the

by popular vote. While there is said to

A few days before election, the Re.

On the eve of election. the Democratic
sleu,hs informed the Republican camp
that dictagrsphic reports Of conferences
Of Republican leaders had been secured,
and that If any illegal use Of campaign
funds were made that prosecution would
follow. The Republicans counterec by

cured.
Defeated Massey, 10 Claim
In the Democratic camp it is claimed
that the activity of the Democratic
sleuths defeated Massey by preventing
the casting of the required number of
votes in Reno aud Tonopah precincts.
This statement is fiercely assailed by
the Republicans. who declare that the
candidacy of Summerfield. Progressive
candidate, took votes from Massey aud
caused his defeat.
