IT seems unreasonable that
Roosevelt should be regarded as
dangerous because he is running
for a third term. Ii the people
want him for president it would
not matter if he had already
served a dozen terms. The two
terms he did serve were highly
successful, and Mr.. Taft was a
member OF his cabinet, contri-
buted to the success OF his
administration and found no
fault with his policies while the
colonel was in the White House.
There is no reason to believe
that Roosevelt would not make
as good a president in the future
as he did in the past. His belief
the forests should not be wasted,
that the people should have a
more direct voice in their own
government, that wornout phi
losophies should be discarded,
that judges are not always in
fallible, and that industrial and
social conditions in town and
country should be improved, do
not necessarily indicate that he
is a dangerous man to entrust
with power.

REPUBLICANS must keep in
mind the fact that the election
OF a republican legislature this

reelection OF Senator Borah,
whose term expires next Janu-

been established yet.

On the following night at Worces-

his reply. He declared President
Taft had not given the people of the
country a "square dealS but had
yielded to the bosses and the great
privileged interests" He also de-
nounced the president for divulging
private correspondence.
Following are few excerpts from
Colonel Roosevelt's speech:
Mr.. Taft says that 10 my various
campaigns I accepted the assistance
OF those bosses. So did when they
chose to 90 my way and to support
the cause Of the people. The trouble
with Mr.. Taft Is that he gets their
assistance at the price Of going their
way and opposing the cause OF the
people,"
"Mr. Taft says that / advised him

DIZZY FINISH OF BATTLE WITH
5 RIVERS Is CLEARLY SHOWN IN PICTURES

Instead of dying down, the contro-
versy over the Wolgast Rivers fight in
Los Angeles July is growing warm
er. Opinion, to judge by the Coast
papers, seems to be about evenly d.
vided as to whether or not Wolgast
was entitled to the decision given by
Jack Welsh. All sportdom waited for
the molten pictures to throw furt her
light on the subject, and this is,what
a Los Angeles dispatch OF. July Z has
to say of them:
Showing practically every blow

Rivers fight were given their first pre-
sentation today at private display.

siasts are to certain extent satisfied
by the pictures.
