ABOUT ROOSEVELT
Free to Seek a Third Term-His
1907 Premises Meant Con
tinuous Service.

New York Feb. 1S-Cnder the title
The Presidential Campaign: Third Term
Realities" the outlook prints the follow
INK editorial:
In JefYerson's time there We're real
dangers against which the unti-third-
term sentiment was directed. In the
impossible that a president might so
intrench himself. by tho use of patron
age and the support of Office holders
as to make 1t difficult to elect an OPP
ponent, even when the country desired
to do So
We think those dangers have pass cd
away, and We see no reason why an
efficient president of the United States
might not be reelected. like the presi-
dent Of business corporation. as
long as he does his work satisfactorily.
We repeat what was said 80 years ago
when the debate was acute regarding
a possible third term for General Grant
In the issue OF this journal for April
l6. 1879. when II was under the same
editorial direction which controls its
opinions to-day. there appeared the fol-
lowing editorial:
- This idea OF n one-term limitation
is an invention of small politicians. who
want "A fair chance at the presidency,
It is the cry Of small boy in n
shooting match. my chance next -
1t is based on the idea that the American
people have not sense enough to know
when they are we'll served and 10
choose their own servants 1t tends to
abnegate the rights OF free citizens to
he free IN their choice.
1t says to the people: You may
choose any man who is raw. hut any
man who has learned the work. who
has experience. you must not choose.
As to the fear of n bureaucracy. II the
bureaucracy does not hurt the people
enough for them to rise and throw 1t
or. 1t does not really hurt them at all.
There Is no objection to three terms,
or 30 terms. If the man Is a good one;
no reason why America should not keep
her prime minister. and the president
Is her prime minister. In office as long
as England kept Pitt in his place.
Indeed. good presidency thai
should last 20 years would be n great
boon TO the country, which suffers very
serious injury from the presidential bat
tie, which not only occurs every four
years. but keeps the great political par
ties diminishing all the meanwhile"
But those who do not accept this
view. and think that it Is still unsafe
to elect Il president for a third term,
should recall the fact that the objeu-
lions 70 a third term were formulated
against a third consecutive term. Stan.
