THE WAROENsHIP

This mornings News seems to
think that possibly the Appeal has
been gold-plated by the prison
management, as it took 4 stand
yesterday in which the paper was
Of the opinion that the war den
was being made subject for
arraignment after he was practi-
cally down and out.
The News has made a mistake.
The Appeal has no fight ON this
score NOR has the prison manage
ment ever offered a penny's worth
of compensation or even a position
to friend, nor has either been
asked by the Appeal.
We have considered that the
wardenship matter was a republic
can appointment. That when Mr..
Baker was appoined the matter
drifted out Of our personal con-
sideration. This paper originally
stood for the appointment Of Mr..
Maxwell for the position, and when
that appointment failed ended
the matter.
Now that the republican admin
stration paper has taken upon
itself to make life uncomfortable
for the republican appointee, the
natural conclusion is that some
thing has slipped 4 cog between the
paper and the warden. We know
not what it is and care less.
The fact that the bills con-
tracted by the warden are allowed
by the buard of examiners, it
would seem that had he been exer.
cising too much leeway that the
proper time to call halt was
when the money WAS going, mot
after it is gone.
The fact seems to be that so far
the republican administration is
about as capable of running any
branch of the stats government as
a child is of handling an air bal
loon.--Carson Appeal.

PROPHECY AND PERFORMANCE

When Colonel Roosevelt declared
seven months ago that an effort to
force his candidacy for the repub-
lican domination would be a cal
amity, he uttered about the great
est truth that has come out of
Oyster Bay since he returned
from Africa. For he has plunged
the republican party, which had
honored him, into AN almost hope
less muddle.
A stranger to cur politics would
be amazed if told that the rival sup
porters Of Roosevelt and Taft are
memb ers of the same great poll
teal party and believe in the same
national principles and policies.
To. all intents, the campaign be-
tween the two candidates is as
bitter, indeed more bitter, than
between the leaders of rival
parties, and the nomination cam
paign is as vet but two weeks old.
If it continues at spresent pressure
until the June convention, he is d
foolish politician who can persuade
himself that either of them will
have much chance in the final
election. And for this the Colonel
is largely to blame, and the more
because he forecasted it before he
got into it. Here is his own state
ment Of the situation:
"New York, August 8, 1911.
Dear Mr.. Moore-I very greatly
appreciate your kind and friendly

to ask all my friends if necessary
actively to work to prevent any
such movement. / should esteem
it genuine calamity if such
movement we re undertaken.
Again thanking you for what you
said, and moreover thanking you
in advance for following my
wishes in this matter, as l know
you will do, am, very sincerely,
Theodore Roosevelt"
Yet the flight of time from
August to February has so
ministered to his ambition OF
clouded his judgment that he has
not only allowed the movement
leading to that genuine calamity
to be undertaken, but has per-
mitted it to sweep him off his feet
and he is now industriously help.

hostilities commenced, and April
