The Hartford herald. [volume] (Hartford, Ky.) 1875-1926, 1916-05-24

In a current issue of the Metro
politan magazine Col. Roosevelt
takes a crack at President Wilson
because of the unreadiness of the
United States for war. After re-
counting the shortcomings of our
country in this respect, the Colo
mel points his scornful finger at the
Chief of our Army and Navy and
says:
This is not the fault of the
officers of the army and navy
of the United States-no finer
men exist. II is the fault of
President Wilson and his sup
porters I'm Congress"
The hypocrisy of such an utter
ance is plain on its face. President
Wilson merely inherited large vol
ume of war unpreparedness from a
long line OF Republican administra-
tions--including Roosevelt's. Why
did not Roosevelt and the many 9TH
er Republican Presidents keep and
have this country in a state Of splen-
did war preparedness?

van, editor of Golfers, besides being
one OF the most brilliant and force

constantly on the lookout for strong
object lessons which illustrate the
tragedies of drink along with cur

addicted to the liquor habit and the
tragic ills which follow the use Of

In the Courier-Journal's straw
vote to ascertain the popularity of
Col. Roosevelt in Kentucky there
appears one incident which probably
constitutes the key to the situation.
Ii was where one Republican wrote
on his straw ballot slip Afraid of
the Big Stick" yet indicated that in
the event Roosevelt is nominated by
the Republicans he will vote for
him. Evidently fear of the Big
Stick controlled his impulse to con-
fess the latter alternative. The old
line Republicans do not want Roose-
welt. They well remember what he
did for them in 1912. Yet they are
afraid to speak out in meetin' I"
and confess their adherence of him.
1t is this very situation that would
make Col. Roosevelt easy to beat.
