COLONEL ROOSEVELT AGAINST
PEACE

Just now. when the great masses of
the Republican party are demanding
that the pickering and disputes and
petty contentious in the party must
cease. there is one prominently dis
Cordant note. II comes from a man
who has been honored by his party
as few men have been honored by IL
or any other party. His name is The
odore Roosevelt. and he declares that
he does not want any fusion" How
can there be rnsion within a PARTY?
\ party can fuse only with some out
side element. There can be confusion
within a party. and this kind OF "fu-
sion" Colonel Roosevelt knows well
how TO produce.

party We mean the united and har-
monious party that elected Mckinley.

DAY the greatest. most aggressive

possessing the confidence Of the peo-
pie. The large number OF Republicans
who at the last election voted a pro-
test against the action Of certain
leaders who temporarily held POWER
in the councils of the party aid not
leave the party. They would never
consent TO wreck the party because
a handful OF leaders made a mistake
or were so charged They know that
it is both absurd and impossible to
organize new party every time some
leader or committee makes mis-
take. Peace will soon reign in the
Republican party because the masses

Dear Sir:-ln your issue ~ the In

] mink the lntelligencer is As much TO
blame as any paper in West virginia
Tor this kind OF reports. Ever since

nave published reports day after day

no ground Whatever for such charges.
YOU nave kept up constant chatter
OF the Watson Chiffon scandal where
there was no such a thing. I am a
good Republican. hut I believe in ius-
lce To all men regardless Of creed or
ppIiticS and when you keep up this
matter you are not only doing an in
justice To Mr.. Watson and Chiffon
nut TO the state OF West Virginia and
ITS people. This report in the first
place started ay a couple OF living
Democrats. who probably were sore
because they could not get any money
Tor their votes in the legislature When
Mr. Chilton's and Watson's statement
was presented To the United states
senate you printed about one-fourth
o. II and left the balance out. Why
dld YOU not print IT all? Do you call
this justice to our fellow statesmen?
Both Mr.. Watson and Mr.. Chiffon
nave done good service for West Nir-
ginia since they have been in the sem
ate. and they have served Republicans
as well as Democrats. The other day
