KANSAS is REPUBLICAN
Roosevelt Strength Among Voters 10
Decreasing Pereeptibiy Through
o!.t State.

Topeka, Kan. Sept. 23.-Notwith-
always existed in Kansas for Theo-
dore Roosevelt. it is undeniable that
his strength as a presidential candi-
date Is decidedly waning throughout
the state.
If he were the candidate of the Re-
publican party, and If there were a
chance Of his election, he would, of
course sweep the state without any
serious opposition. But neither Of
those conditions exists. The fact that
his own leaders have been obliged to
yield to the wave of indignant pro-
test which swept against them on ac-
count of their effort to have Roose-
velts electors placed in the Repub-
lican column has not only proven the
strength Of the Taft sentiment, but 1t
has eliminated all possibility of
Roosevelt carrying the state. The
withdrawal of his electors from the
Republican columns has emphasized
the fact that he is not the Republican
candidate; and Kansas is too we'll
satisfied with the conditions which
have prevailed during the past six
teen years to follow any man, how
ever popular he may be, out Of the
Republican party.
" The Roosevelt sentiment has been
further weakened by the universal
conviction that there is no possibility
of his election and that the only eff
feet his candidacy can possibly have
is to expose the country to the dan
ger of Democratic victory. Kansas
is as far from being a Democratic
state as 1t ever was and with the sub
.stantial collapse of the Roosevelt cam
paign, this state will be found in its
accustomed place near the head of
the Republican column.

HELEN M. WILSON, STATE su.
PERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC
INSTRUCTION.

Mrs. Helen NJ. Wilson has served one
term as state superintendent of public
instruction. She received the unan;.
nous endorsement of her party for a
second term. During the two years
Mrs. Wilson has served, she has proved
herself an extremely capable woman.
The new state course of study, and the
annotated school law, both gotten out
this year under her supervision, are the
best ever issued in this state. She has
shown a marked degree of executive
ability; a fearless courage in advocat-
ing her convictions; an ability for sus.
tained work and at all times she has
evinced the greatest earnestness in her
efforts in behalf of the teachers and
of the schools of Colorado.
Her work has been credible and of
lasting benefit to the state. She de.
serves a second term. Let us remember
these facts when we cast out votes on
the fifth of November.

CANVASS OF INDIANA
n Shows That the Roosevelt Move.
ment 10 Now on the
Decline.

indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 3o.-A care
full canvass has been made of the
Roosevelt sentiment In every county
IN tnls state. The inquiry was start
ed by a prominent business man of
this city, who was anxious to learn
for himself the true condition of af.
falrs. He sent out large number of
letters to men in each Of the coun-
ues who were not politicians and
would have no incentive to falsify the
situation. The replies showed that in
every county in the state, with one
exception. there had been a marked
decrease in the Roosevelt sentiment
The opinion was universally ex-
pressed that the Third Term candi-
date had fewer followers now In In.
diana than at any time since the cam.
paign opened and this number was
steadily decreasing. A few Of these
reports summarized are as follows:
White county-"Ours is an aRricul-
tural community and the farmers all
seem satisfied with conditions and
are not calling for change. | see
no evidence of Bull Mooseism spread.
Ing. On the contrary, it is weaker

Lake county-"Sentimen for the

among the farmers. Sentiment is
growing more and more favorable to

: Montgomery county-"The Bull
Moose sentiment here ia waning. The
Third Term party is losing as the
campaign progresses"
: De kalb county-"There will not
be many Bull Moose voters here Taft

THE TIDE HAS TURNED.

From the Paterson. N. j.. Press.
1t is apparent that the turn OF the
tide which has been generally expect
ed. In favor of the reelection of Pres
ident Taft. has set in all over the
country. The Third Term movement
is rapidly waning. and the testing pro-
cess of Governor Wilson in the cruel
BILE of public opinion is proving dis
tinct disappointment to the Democratic
party.
No impartial observer of the politi-
cal situation now believes that Roose-
welt has any chance Of winning, and
It is apparent that the Democratic
standard bearer has made a great mis-
take in adopting the cry of death to
the protective tariff as his slogan.
So manifest Is the turn of the tide
toward Taft that the Democratic lead
ers have ceased to regard victory for
their party as sure thing.

Reports From All Sections Are to the
> Effect That Republicans Have
Determined TO Remain Loyal to
Party.

Cnlcaso, sept. T.-Polls which are
being received at the headquarters of
the Republican national committee In
dicate that the third term candidate
viii not receive on election day any
thing like the support given him in
the primaries. when he was q Repub-
lican seeking the nomination of his
party for the ofice of president
These figures are confirmed by state
ments published in newspapers in va
rious parts Of the state, by letters re-
ceived at the headquarters and by Illi-
nofs people who visit Chicago and
express their opinions on the political
situation.
Rev. Clark s. Thomas of Elgin, who
has travelled through the state from
East St Louis to Vincennes and from
Springfield to Centralia, was emphatic
in his assertion that the Roosevelt
sentiment in Illinois is disappearing
When former Senator William E.
Mason. nominated at the primaries for
the position of Congressman-at-large
from Illinois, recently returned from
"a speech-making tour he reported that
the Roosevelt sentiment was waning
in the localities which he had visited.

Change Among Farmers.
Republican conditions have i'm.
proved In my section of Illinois more
than 25 per cent since 1 was here
two weeks ago." says Mr.. w. w.
Clark of Aurora ILL.,, formerly labor
editor Of the Chicago Inter Ocean and
now editor of the Aurora Sentinel.
THE change is principally observed
among the farmers. They appreciate
the prosperity which they have been
enjoying under Republican admins
tration and they are beginning to real
lie that a change to Democracy means
an end to their good times. The trend
toward President Taft is plainly ap-
parent"
Pledged to Republican Ticket.
II cannot speak for other parts of the
state" said Mr.. w. E. Wire OF Hebron,
ILL.,, while in Chicago recently, but

will not poll one per cent. of the vote
which he received in the primaries
last spring"
Mr.. Wire was formerly chairman OF
the county committee of McHenry
county, and is now member OF the
county committee.
While there are some sections in
the state where the Roosevelt senti-
ment continues to manifest itself, the
fact that 1t is generally disappearing
is proven beyond doubt.
