ton to his former friend. Clearly
such course is not dictated by
friendly instincts but rather by those
of the self-seeker who, at his own ca
price, willingly sacrifices friendship
on the altar of Forgetfulness.
Still again. the Colonel says he is
not seeking the nomination but that
his friends are demanding it. All pop
pycock, For the past two years it
has been fairly manifested that the
Colonel has been itching for the
White House job; and it is now more
manifest than ever that his hat was
in the ring" long before he himself
claims to have flung it, there. Had
there been popular uprising of the
people for the Colonel, that is one
thing; that there should be a demand
for political reasons, from half doz-
en- State Governors, that's another
thing. Who finds any strenuous de-
mand from the people that the Col
onel be again the Republican stand
ard-bearer? Judge the country as a
whole and a very large per cent of
the voters will be found on the Taft
bandwagon. The ColonePs reasons
of demand" are presumptuous in the
extreme, and being presumptuous in
the extreme. they are silly.
Finally, the Colonel once declared
to the people that he would not again
be a candidate for the Presidency.
The people thought they understood
exactly what he meant. Apparently
they did not correctly understand him,
for the Colonel says he meant con
secutiye terms" But what the peo-
pie understood will stand, 1t will
take the former President all the rest
of his days to explain away this ap-
parent Inconsistency.
1t is our opinion furthermore that
when these several phases of the sit
uation have been fairly presented to
the American people that President
Taft will be loyalty supported and
that Colonel Roosevelt's ambitions
will be repudiated as in all fairness
of consideration they should be.

Roosevelt or Taft---Which ?

The entrance of eX-President Theo-
dore Roosevelt into the national polltl-
cal arena has tended to complicate
matters badly. Opinions differ as 10
the wisdom of the former President
again offering himself for the presi-
dency and his entrance at this time Is
bound to split the Republican Party
into two warning factions. This TACT
in itself may not be regarded as 50
serious as some other matters in con-
nection with Colonel Roosevelt's can
didacy.
The position of the Independent-Re-
porter is that President Taft and NOT
Theodore Roosevelt deserves the uni
ted, support of the Republican Party.
In thus stating our position we are
aware that there are those of our
readers who hold the contrary view.
With them we have no quarrel what
ever; they are certainly entitled to
their view as we are to ours. But
we question If certain phases OF the
situation, now made complicated by
Col. Roosevelt. have been clearly suS-
gested to those who are shouting loud
est for the ex-President.
First of all, what reason can be Civ
Ell why President Taft should not re-
ceive a denomination? Has he not
throughout his administration con-
Quoted himself and his high office in
the most dignified and businesslike
and statesmanlike manner? Has he
not in all respects merited we'll OF
those of his party who. by their votes,
asked him to lead them to victory?
Has his championship of Reciprocity
proved a stumbling block to renom-
nation? But who knows what Rec
procity might have accomplished fo"
the nation as a whole? Who, on any
grounds of certainty, can oppose the
President because of his sincere ef-
forts to effect such reciprocal trade
agreement with Canada, supported by
both branches of Congress, as would
work veal and not woe to ninety mil
ions of our people? Say what one may
the fact remains that President Taft
has served his country we'll at least in
served his country we'll, at least in
the way indicated by the platform OF
principles on which his party asked
him to run. To desert him now Is
not craftsmanship, neither Is 1t con-
siderateness for the Presidents feel
ings.
Again, why should Colonel Roose-
welt enter at this time? In answering
this question, several points need to
be kept in mind. First, Col. Roose-
welt himself was among the very fore
most TO urge upon the people the
candidacy of President Taft. He
posed as, and presumably was, the
friend of the then Secretary of War,
He supported him, it may now be I'M
derstood, because he wanted Mr.. Taft
to carry out the so-called Roosevelt
Policies" So far as the needs of the
country have demanded and the wis
dom of the people dictated. these poll
cies as expressed, not necessarily by
Mr.. Roosevelt but by The People
themselves. have been faithfully and
consistently carried out. And now,
evidently. because Pres. Taft is not
willing to play the role of the puppet,
the Colonel enters the ring in opposi-
