The Colonel Disgusted.

Authentic report Is that Colonel
Roosevelt Is much more ob5e5sed with
the desire to defeat Wilson than the
election of Hughes, which he regards
as a secondary consideration. The
Colonel's antipathy for Wilson is be
cause OF the fact that the president has
eclipsed him in the service OF the
country and relegated him from the
front page and from the limelight. 1t
is also said that Roosevelt is dissat-
isfied with the Hughes performance in
the west. that he is almost ready to
quit playing second fiddle In the swat
fly campaign. as he calls it. Instead
Of talking Americanism. he says
Hughes talks civil service reform
and instead of deIouncing the German
American alliance. denounces extrava-
gance in governmental expenditure. He
believes he has oeen tricked and Is

business, but he will have his labor

said on one occasion, "a condition and
not a theory" confronted Mr.. Wilson,
and he did what the whole country ap.
plauded him for doing. The Republi'
cans tried to embarrass the President
in the matter. but he turned the trick
and came out more than a victor and
made himself more solid with the
people. The laboring people especially
are singing the praises of the man who
meets every emergency manfully and
