GHE HANDWRITING
ON THE WALL.

NnateA en- may be said about the
Republican leaders, it cannot be said
they do not want TO remain in power.
llgy I'D not nominate Mr. Taft be-
cause they loved him. but because
there was 10 other course AT the
tine and they had no idea the colonel
would carry out his aNowed inten
ton of boiling. There are exceptions
10 all rules and the colonel put one
over on them when he remained
steadfast to what he said he would do.
Since the Chicago convention the
Republican leaders have been con-
WINGED beyond doubt that Woodrow
Wilson will sweep the country unless
something can be done TO unite the
two factions of the Republican party,
and recent telegraphic news shows
that they are reading the handwrit-
ing on the wall and will ask Presi-
dent Taft 10 withdraw from the race.
Should he consent to comply with
tGeir request similar one will be
rade to Colonel Roosevelt. What will
he the ultimate outcome of the
Sc heme no one can tell.
The colonel may take il TO mean
lis strength is developing and will re-
frsc to withdraw, or he may have
more practical judgment than the
world gives him credit OF possessing
and will agree to progressive man
as a Standard bearer for the united
Republican party. But his refusal to
withdraw at the convention to give
Hadley chance does not give any as
surance that he has lost any of his
ambition to again become president.
In the meantime there is nothing
to cause the Democrats any concern
about the outcome of the campaign
which is already on. The proposition
for President Taft to withdraw only
tends to show the weakness of the
PARTY and the Independent vote will
surely forsake that party for the
mocratic one which bristles with
rrogrcssiveism. - Pensacola Journal.
