The bull moose slump in Maine was
heavy. Still, bull moose party re-
mains in the state, and answers the
purpose of q democratic asset. a union
of the forces subscribing to the policies
long known as republican would have
swept everything into the republican
basket yesterday with ease.
Mr.. Roosevelt visited the state short
time since, and must have been in
formed Of the true situation. He must
have known when he quilted the state
of the change that had occurred since
1912.

remarkable occurrence.
To assume that Mr.. Roosevelt will
head the leading opposition to the
democrats two years hence involves the
assumption that the republicans will
come TO concede the unworthiness he
has charged against them, and their
inability again to give the country good
government. They will have to re-
nounce their name. take his name, &C.
cept his full program, and in all things
submit themselves to him.

the near west. He wants the bull

example of their Maine brethren. Vote

mind If no local candidates are elected
next November. Think Of that Novem-
Der when national candidates are to be
voted for again.
The democrats like the game. It suits
them. They are in power as the result
of republican divisions. They note with
great satisfaction all that Mr.. Roose-
welt is doing. and probably would be
glad to contribute to the bull moose

Nothing would suit them better then
for Mr.. Roosevelt to accomplish his pur-
