7. R. ON ELECTION
Gives Post MOrtem Views on
Why Wilson Won.
Prosperity and SKept Us Out Of
Wars Turns Trick.

New York, Dec. 4.-Col. Theodore
Roosevelt gives his post mortem views
of the results of the balloting Novem-
Der Z in the Christmas issue of the
Metropolitan Magazine, out today, in
an article entitled 1.-The Election" In
holding the HE kept us out OF war
cry and the wide prosperity OF the ma
ton the decisive factors in the Demo-
cratic victory, the colonel says:
'It would have been highly credit
able to the average man if he had
possessed the vision and disinterested-
ness to disregard such an appeal, but
the fact that he did not disregard it
merely means that we were not able
to make the issue clear to his eyes.
1t does not mean that he would re-
main morally obtuse if he could be
shown in convincing fashion where
his duty lay"
But that part most likely to arouse
in Republican leaders the liveliest feel
ings is:
Voter Reflects Indifference.
I'VE have permitted our politicians,
our candidates for public office, to
treat the promise made in party plat
forms and on the stump with a cyni-
cal indifference which now reflects it
self in a similar indifference on the
part of the voters. When public men
are readily pardoned for making any
promise which they think will secure
favor before election and for repud-
iating any promise which they think
it inconvenient to keep after election
it is impossible to expect that the
voters will not finally grow skeptical
about all promises, prophecies and
statements made during the course of
a campaign
Moreover, there was a real blur
ring of the issues. because for the first
three years of Mr.. Wilson's term the
leaders among his nominal party OPP
ponents either feared to criticise him
at all, or else split, half of them as
sailing him because on some given
policy he had gone too far, and the
other half because he had not gone
far enough.
Where Conviction Failed.
when public man who had for
three years praised each of Mr. Will
SONS acts separately, turned around
and in the campaign condemned them
all collectively. he did not carry con-
viction.
Nor was it possible to exert the
full opposition strength against him
when the leadership for three years
had been such that until the cam
Daign opened it was not possible to
foretell exactly what ground the OPP
position would be asked to take"

LOOT ENORMOUS
Villa Horde Leaves Chihuahua
City to De FactOs.
100000 in Coin, 1000 Rifles,
CannOns and Supplies.

Ell Paso, Tex, Dec. AFTER sys-
tematically lootiEg and evacuating
Chihuahua City. Villa is today march
ing westward toward the mountains
of western Chihuahua, carrying four
trainloads of loot and supplies. At Z
o'clock Saturday night, Mexican gov
eminent troops reoccupied the north
ern capital without bloodshed.
In the first message exchanged after
the wires were reopened between Chi
huahua City and the border, nothing
was said of the fate of the six Ameri-
cans who were known to have been in
Chihuahua City when it was attacked
and captured by VillistaS a week ago.
Relatives of the missing men. and
United States department agents here
at once dispatched kilograms to the
American residents of Chihuahua City,
but early today no reply to these mes
sages had reached the border.
Send 5000 De Factos to City.
In Juarez today troop trains with
fresh supplies of ammunition were
preparing to start south. Unofficial
advices stated that the relief columns
of General Murgia and the remnants
of General Trevino's command had
marched into Chihuahua City from
the south and that the new artillery
brought up by Murgia is being en-
placed on the dominating hills of San
ia Rosa. Every preparation is being
made to garrison the city more heav-
lily than heretofore. A conservative
estimate by Carranza military authori-
ties place the number of government
troops now in the northern capital at
5000.
From unofficial sources it was
learned that the loot gathered by the
Villistas was enormous. The bandits
carried everything in wagons to trains
at the Mexican Northwestern station.
Automobiles were Communicated to
Villa officers about the streets while
the sacking of the city was in progress
Seize Federars Heavy Artillery.
More than 100000 worth of coin
and bullion was part of the booty
taken by the bandits, one account
states. So great was the terror of the
natives that some even helped the
bandits to loot their town homes and
helped carry away the loot. From
Tuesday until Saturday the robbery
went on.
Five modern guns of rs and S0-mil-
| 1imeter caliber were pulled down from
Santa Rosa hill by Villistas and taken
along, While the remaining were dis
abled. Mining men here declare they
have information that Villa captured
seven thousand rifles, sixty machine
guns and quantities of ammunition.
