T.R. SPEAKS AGAIN.
Colonel Addresses Another Big Meet
inf in Madison Square Garden.

New York, Nov 2-Colonel Roose-
welt for the second time in three days,
addressed an immense audience in
Madison Square garden. There had
preceded him to the garden through
the medium of Comptroller William A.
Prendergast. chairman Of the meet
| ing, a request that no effort be made
by the crowd to cheer him beyond the
limit of time accorded in the same hall
to Governor Wilson.
when Colonel Roosevelt raises his
left hand" said Mr.. Prendergast, che
asks Won to let him proceed with his
speech because he desires a record
next Tuesday in the voting, rather
than record tonight in the duration
of the cheers"
The colonel was wildly cheered as
he forced his way to the front and
waved a welcome to all parts of the
la1l.
1t was rs minutes before his uplifted
hand brought the cheering to an end.
After it had gone on for 20 minutes,
he raised his arm, but the crowd re-
newed it's cheers and he dropped the
arm to his side. Again he made the
gesture, but an enthusiast unfurled a
garden and then the crowd was again
in an uproar.
When he could finally make him
self heard the colonel declaring that
he spoke in behalf Of tie Progressive
state and local tickets of New York,
talked for over an hour, his voice
strong and his strength apparently un-
impaired by the effort.
The enthusiasm with which the big
gathering opened was stimulated by Oscar
s. Straus himself, the New York candi
date for governor, who, in the effort to
quiet the crowd. waved a red bandana.
The thousands of spectators stamped.
cheered. whistled. blew tin horns and
waved flags.
Colonel Roosevelt began his speech by
saying he wished to make a special appeal
on behalf of the Progressive state and To-
cal tickets.
'"Friends. I wish to remember always
that this is no ephemeral or temporary
movement" he continued.
I'VE have gone into this movement
making our appeal to all good citizens,
without regard to their past party affilia
lions and with the resolute intention to
movement which shall deal not merely
with national but with state and local at
fairs.
For. mind you, friends, the evils that
affect our people are evils which cannot
be dealt with by any one branch of the
government alone"
DEPRESSING for a moment from his pollti-
cal topic. the colonel referred to the death
of Vice President Sherman, saying:
within the last As hours a man holding
the second highest position in the land has
press the feeling not only of all of you
here, but of our people everywhere when
I say that we were all affected with sor-
row, and concern for the death of the vice
president In your name shall ask the
chairman of this meeting to send our most
respectful sympathy to the wife OF the
late vice president-Mrs. Sherman"

cheer, although there was sadness in
his heart, for he had just received
word of the death of his mother at
Adrian, Ohio. He left early this morn
i.-g for Adrian.
Mr.. Parlette is versatile in his COM
parsons. He told how people were
lie iron ore-increase in value with
rOastings and hammerings. Then he
compared people to apples in the bar
rel of existence and emphasized the
fact that the big people were always
found lin the top layer.
From this he said that people were
also like fiddles and were tuned by
the experiences of life so that they
vibrate to Gods harmonies.
Mr.. Parlette is a speaker whose two
hours talk seems not more than
the heights of oratory in his eloQuence
but at the same time he gives you
the impression of a friend having
heart to heart talk with you. He is
genius of cheer.
He himself is a graduate of the
university of hard knocks" He has
been a mill hand and printer. He
knows what it is to make three dol
lars a week and board himself, to pick
up pied type, to coax pay from the
reluctant subscriber: even to sit up
nights with a rheumatic gasoline en-
CINE and nurse it to run off the paper

Announces For Second { ERIN.

J. M. Ivy, better known as
"Jake" Ivy, has requested is to
announce his candidacy for a
second term as treasurer OF
Jackson county, and the indie
pendent takes unusual pleasure
in so doing. Announcements
are always a pleasure to news
paper man and he can't hardly
repress his qualification but
must give vent to his pleasure.
However in Mr.. 1vy's case, this
feeling is increased because of
the high regard in which he is
held by this paper and the peo-
pie among he now lives and who
have come to know him better
and value him the higher.
He will probably not have any
opposition. There is none in
sight and this is due largely to
the good record he has made
and, his personal popularity.
For a second term, it is doubtful
if he could be defeated by any
snan in the county.
His integrity is never ques-
toned his records have been
carefully, systematically and ac-
curately kept, he has been a
close attendant upon his office,
ready at all times for those who
had business with the treasurer
and as accommodating and clev-
Ter to the humblest as well as
the highest as any people could
desire of an official.
His record and the man him.
self are both worthy of unquali-
fed endorsement and we hope
to see him get every vote cast
in the primary.

AS an officer, Mr.. Ballew has

the personal courage required
in a sheriff and combines with
it that discretion and tact which
seldom blunders a case.
Mr.. Ballew has always been a

here and an afable nature has
made many friends in all parts
of the county upon whose sup

candidate friend making a good
sheriff if honored by the voters

must re entirely cleared up within a

"A heavy responsibility goes with
the mayors Office" said Judge Phelan,
speaking, Wednesday, OF the efforts
that have been made to have him en-
ter the race, and the salary that the
mayor receives is inadequate. In a
city of the size of Detroit the mayor
ought to receive $4,000 year.
1t is certainly position OF great
responsibility, and cannot under
stand why so many men are ready to
rush ia and make a campaign for the
office. Is II the salary that attracts
them or are they merely DESTROYS Of
