The Democrats were especially for
tunate in the matter of contests, very
few of which had been filed There
! were contests from the Philippine Is
lands, Alaska. Porto Rico and the Dis
trict of Columbia Uncle Sans pos
sessions in the far east nave never
been permitted to participate in Dem
ocratic national convention Because
of the anti-imperialism issue of 1900
the Philippine delegates were barred
and the precedent established then was
adhered to in 1904 and 1908. Through
| an error in issuing the cali this year,
| the Philippine Islands. were not elimi-
mated, and two sets of delegates were
chosen.
1t was well known Of course that
no candidate would go into the con
yention with even majority of the
delegates. whereas a two-thirds was
necessary to nominate For that rea
son the outcome could not be fore
casted Some Democrats think that
the two-thirds rule is IN Democratic
and that it ought to be changed, and
until very recently there were Demo

received a letter from a bad tempered
friend of Mr.. Taft The bad tempered
one complained that l recently-and

lance in politics. Also, he said, that
was urging the success Of MI Roose
welt through sheerest stress Of friend
ship and not from an anxiety to serve
the public good
In return ] must say that my per
fervid correspondents information as
to both the Mormons and myself is as
bad as his temper. My friendship for
Mr. Roosevelt is public rather than

AS a matter of friendly fact, l haven't
spoken to Mr.. Roosevelt but once in
five years I write these articles for
the double reason that the Hearst
newspapers, in their liberal fairness,
permit me the use OF their columns.
and feel that a Roosevelt in the white
house is the crying need Of the hour.
Likewise. am willing Another Roose-
veltism-to pull at least my weight on
the popular rope.

How can one who knows public con-

And now as to a Mormon strength
and a Mormon feeling: Taking feeling
first. What said Brigham Young in
the days when old Joe Smith reigned
supreme as Prophet? Said Brigham
and it's the Church word now as
strongly as when he uttered it;
THE first principle Of our cause and
work is to understand that there is a
prophet in the Church He is a the
head of the Church. Who called Jo-
.seph smith TO be prophet? God, and
not the people Had the people APP
pointed a prophet he would have been
accountable to the people. But. mas

der at Becker's instigation.
