Denounces Methods

Representative Hayes, of Califor-
mia, one Of the Republican insurgents
of the House. made a protest in that
body last week against what he
termed unfair methods of political
attack upon President Taft.
81 recognize, as l believe every
fair minded man must said he,
that never have we had a president
more patriotic, more courageous,
more honest in purpose, than the
present CHEZ executive. Mind
singing vituperation and personal
politics are certainly t6s be con.
demned IN every local election OF
campaign, and If locally these
things are disgusting and should be
frowned upon by every lover: of de-
cency, they are not to be commended
when they strive to rise to the dig
nifty of national politics.
81 have no words to express my
contempt for the political methods
pursued by some against the present
occupant of the White House. They
do not hesitate to use misrepreseata-
ton, exaggeration, even falsehood,
to bring odium upon the head OF
the nation. Upon everything she
proposes they. cast suspicion; they
belittle and ridicule any reference to
the merits Of the proposition or
the suggestion that he makes, They
apparently gladly expose their own
insincerity and lack Of consistency
II they can hnt put the chief execu-
tive, as they express it. in hole. .
This distinguished progressive
Republican istevidently actuated by
sense rather than sourness and
Simultaneously says the Weston In
dependent, and he too evidently un-
derstands that we can not hope to
have another Republican admins
tration by incorporating and
maligning the one we have now.

Few neWspapeFs d the United
States speak with greater authority
among Republicans than the New
York Tribune The Old paper 81
Horace Greeley has been q consist
ent preacher Of Republication for
over half century. Here Is It's
comment upon the presidential cam
didacy Of AR. Roosevelt. 1t de.
serves the careful reading Of every
Republican in West Virginia:
The Tribune regrets that Colonel
Roosevelt Is again seeking the Re-
publican nomination for the presi-
|dency His candidacy, because OF
personal relations formerly existing,
can hardly fail to engender unusual
political bitterness and create a
breach among Republicans wider
than rival candicacies ordinarily
produce. and in a year when the
party will need its full strength to
win. Col, Roosevelt would have
served best the party by remaining
in the background.
No public exigency drags him
into the arena. There are no pria-
ciples whose services require this
candidacy. President Taft is de-
MED the title of progressive only
with monstrous disregard of the
facts. The difference between him
and colonel Roosevelt Is, one OF
temperament and methods rather
than one of ends. And Mr.. Taft,s
methods have the justification of sue
cess. He has put Upon the statute
books an unprecedented amount OF
progressive legislation. and has car
ried forward extraordinarily the
ideal of equal rights for IL. Nor is
there any halt in the work. The
latest act of the administration, req
ommending to Congress work,
mans compensation bill OF drastic
character, is that of courageous
progressive. This bill, which is ex-
pected to pass Congress, is as
'thoroughgoing and progressive
measure as the New York law in. be-
half Of which Mr.. Roosevelt makes
his sweeping condemnation OF our
court of appeals. It is a tremend-
GUS advance upon any labor legisla,
ton secured in the seven years Of
Colonel Roosevelt's own 1ncumbency
and it measures the reality of prog
ress under Mr.. Taft.
Social justice is as much Mr..
Taft's aim as It is Colonel Roose-
velt's. The president is sanelyI
progressi~7 unless to be progressive
one must be willing to abandon the
safeguards of a written constitution
AS candidate for denomination, he
has no reason to fear the issue
raised by colonel Roosevelt's scheme
for the recall of judicial decisions
in the name of progress.
