Theodora Roosevelt, KoTcaabe ISO. MARATHON CHEERS AFTER having bowled out President Taft by means of straw vote as a poor second to Deba and the other minor candidates, the supporters of Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt are now electing their respective candidates with long distance cheers. Mr.

Roosevelt, at a speech in Madison Suuare Garden. Wednesday night. a forty one mlnute cheer, which, lils followers believed, gave him an unquestioned lead In the race. Hut the following nlfrht along comes Woodrow Wilson In the same Madison Square Garden and he gets a fifty nlne mlnute cheer. Thus we llnd that the Democratic candidate carries the country by the nubstantial margin of eighteen minutes.

The only other man In the history of the United States who was ever so overwhelmingly elected by cheers Is William Jennings Bryan. An auto hearse driver In Passaic, N. was arrested this week for scorching. Now will you deny that the country has gone spoed mad? PARAMjELS he ivew xorK Times draws a 1 parallel between the political situation to day and that which resulted In the elnctlon of Grover Cleveland In 1892. It recalls that the congressional elections In 1890 went to the Democrats Just as they did In 1910.

From a Democratic Congress to Democratic administration was a short step, and the Times set every reason to believe that the United States Is about to take that step again. It might have gone further and shown the poignant national remorse that followed the temporary upsetting of Republican policies. It might have el. own that the gubernatorial elections following the election of Cleveland were more overwhelmingly Repub llcan than" ever. People were sorry for wha they had done and they Indicated by their attitude on State Issues that they were eager for the tlmte to come when they could correct their mistakes by returning the Republican party to power in Washington.

How thoroughly they did it when the time came hlBtory tells, but In the meanwhile they paid a heavy penalty for the "tariff for revenue only" blunder. The Times parallel unquestionably holds good so far as it has gone. Is it povslble that our memories are so poor as to permit It to go no farther? William Fllnn says he Is not a candidate for the United States Senate. Yes, In about the same way that his Bull Moose chief would not under any circumstances "be a candidate for or accept another nomination" for President. In the Progressive camp plain English words do not seem to mean whalj they do among ordinary persons.

A WORD TO REPUBLICANS i HE old Republican party is a thing of the past," declared Colonel Roosevelt at Oyster Bay yesterday. And yet Borne of his followers are trying to delude themselves Into believing they can be Bull Moosers and Republicans at the same time. "Whatever the result of the ballot to, the Progressive party has been founded and put upon a lasting basis," continued the Colonel. He doesn't allegiance If ha can prevent it. Wo aubnill these statement tf 1'olourl Itooeevclt to the serious eon alderatloii of good Republicans hu have been Inclined lila )', anil wo would respectfully direct their attention also to the fact that under the law In I'eimoivanU out) who votes for any other than tha regular Re publican Prealdential elector thta time cannot participate In the lt publican primary electlona next spring.

Tha law aaya only those who rota for a majority of tha randidatea on a party ticket are member of that parly. Kach of the Presidential elector! la a candidate and together they constitute a large majority of tho ticket. Favoring Colonel Roosevelt for the Republican nomination for I'realdent and following him outslda the Hepuh llcan party ara two very different things. I Profeaaor Wilson dealrea to conduct a few experlmenta with our economic system. The reaulta would supply ma terial for a very Interesting essay.

Of courae, tha worklnrmen would gladly atand the damage In tha Interest of aolentlflo research. THE BALKAN RUlITilSE begins to look rery much mm though tha lopg desplaed Balkan 8tates had given the European powers one of the most embarrassing surprises of recent years. The presumption Is that Europe intended them to pull some political chestnuts out of the fire. They got the chestnuts In less time than It for the others to take the lead In what promises to be 'a very delicate busi ness. Meanwhile, the map Is being re drawn and the little Balkan allies are the draftsmen.

The "Interests" are not worrying over the outcome of the election. Whichever way the cat jumps big business can take care of Itself. The worklngman, when he goes Into the voting booth, had better give a little thought to his own Interests. THE TRE ND IX CHINA WASHINGTON recently had Its first Chinese wedding performed according to Christian rites. The dispatches state that the bridegroom, a wealthy merchant, was Influenced to depart from the ancient marriage ceremony of his country by the fact that "China has become a republic like the United States, and, therefore, liberality has supplanted prejudice." The Incident, trifling as it is, holds a deep significance.

It means that the path of the Christian missionary In China, rough and thorny as it ban been In the past. Is to he made smooth. It means that the political upheaval, which was undoubtedly duo In some measure to the spiritual awakening of the Chinese people, will In turn react to the benefit of the Christian Church. The Church, having purified and elevated politics, politics will now return the favor by removing the chief obstacle In the way of the Church heathen traditions and heathen It Is not at all Improbable that the rising generation of to day may live to see tho old Flowery Kingdom Included among the nations of Christen dom. President Taft'" plan for the establishment of farmers' credit Institu tions, so that the tiller of the soil may borrow money on as low rates of Interest as the owner of a factory, is worth more than bushels of eloquent speeches about "social and economic Justice." There has been more genuine prog ress In our national government In the past three and one half years than In any like period In recent times.

Why not vote for an administration of achievement Instead of ono of mere talk? Of course, if the majority Insists on a change, i may have its way, but those who vote for it should make up their minds not to cry over the re suits. The full dinner pall la again the live Issue of the campaign, no matter what the gllb tongucd may Bay to the contrary. Appeals to passion and prejudice are not campaign Continued prosperity, or Indefinite disaster. It's up to the men who vote. Why not vote to let well enough alone? NEWS DISPATCHES OF THE CIVIL WAR From the Telegraph of Nov.

The advance of the Army of the Potomac up the left side of the Blue Ridge Is being accomplished with great dispatch. A large force of tha enemy was met with at Snicker's Gap to dispute our passage, but they were' easily routed. No credence of a raid Into Maryland and thence to Pennsylvania Is given the rumors thrown out.

Home of the Items also have a pertinent Inter! for llarrlnhura For Instance the city pinna to borrow 1 420.000 to get rid of srade crossings.

We have a few which we might as well get out of the vuy. Then there Is 10.000 for Improvements to the municipal hospital and IVOO.OUO for the river front. Two Itema of 000 each are to go for fire department apparatus and fire alarm Improve mania and Just 11,210,000 for a site for city hall There are somethings which we have not gotten, although we have bean progressing. The up to date way to go hunting Is by automobile. The old fashioned plan of rlatng soon after midnight and taking a badly scheduled train to the place ten miles from good hunting and then driving over bum roads Is done away with.

The hunter now loads his dog, paraphernalia and lunch and maybe a friend of two Into his automobile and takes the trail about sunrise, or maybe a little earlier. The result la that at the most delightful part of tha morning he la right where Bob White la calling and the rabbits wouia ixe to write ins run story or ar. elttlng up eating breakfast. The how fhey accomplished It, now automobile beata anything Invented they are manifesting a strong dls retting right among the game. pcaltlon to keep tha chestnuts for themselves.

"Triple alllasce and triple entente made no more to oompel Turkey to cease the atrocltten that drove us Into war," they say. "Why should we allow the big fellows to step In after the bloody work has been done and divide the spoils? We have proved ourselves able to cope with a much more formidable adversary thsn the Turk. Let Europe have a care how It peaks about Intervention!" And Europe IS having a care. Each tf the powers appears to be waiting This Is evidently going to be a great sauerkraut year. The acreage tn cab.

bage la larger than for a long time and aome fit the heads ahown at the markets this morning are about the best In yeara Moat of It is grown right here In Dauphin county and even ir we did not have steel rails and anthracite coal and big pump kins to be proud of, we could still alt up and crow over the cabhaitea we raise. Farm after farm near the city Is Just now yielding Its splendid specimens of the great vegetables so much esteemed by our neighbors of German descent and eaten by all the rest of us. A cab driver stood In front of the Capitol for a while yesterday and got tired of the pelting rain. Then he walked Into the building and made the guides sit up and take notice by asking where the fire department was located. "Flro department 'asked a much puzzled guide.

Yas. I wuz tole to come heah for flah depahtment," answered the driver. "No such department In this build ing. We've got our own hose." "Well, say." "Don't you mean the Ftate Are mar shal?" put In a man going by. "Tas, sah; yas, sah.

Dai's It." "I don't think I have ever known so many political meetings held In this city In my life and I've lived here for something like fifty years, said a man last evening. hy, there three or four every niijht. In the old days we used to parade and whoop it up and have probably one or two meetings at which some big men of the city or StHte would speak. Now they have half a dozen meetings a night and a parade is a rare thing comparatively aicHking. Hucli stunt as lust night are something we never dreamed of.

Hut then llarrlshurg Is growing." The open season for dandelions is on among Capitol Hill gardeners and the w'hv the pcxtiferous roots are being dragged out Is a caution. Kvcry fall the plants are dug out of the Suite's wide lawns and the result of this case Is that In the spring when the yellow flowers dot many stretches of grass the Hill Is almoxt free. It takes hard work to keep the Capitol grass In order but it is one of the best kept public parks in the State. There were some funny sights at Union Station last night when the hunters came back from the woods. One man appeared with five rabbits and a number of squirrels.

Klvo men came up the htcps and one bore one rabbit. Two boys, hardly seventeen, had a bag of suuirrels and rabbits, and two hunters, whoso automobile was awaiting thorn and who had the latest bunting toggery, showed two auall. This was all In a five minute period. D. Edward Ryers.

one of the best known operators in the city, has been chosen to succeed E. 8. Gohorn as truffle chief of the western Union. Mr. Goshorn having resigned to enter a brokers office.

Mr. Byers has been at the wire in Harrlsburg for many years and has known a generation of newspapermen. WILSON IN THE WHITE HOUSE An experienced political observer, reviewing the campaign, portrays Gov ernor Wilson In this way: "If the Democrats are successful this year, there wilt bo the same scramble for personal advantage that occurred In 1892, when Grover Cleve land brought his party into power, but failed utterly to hold it In hand when the mad rush for personal gain was made. Why should we expect that Governor Wilson should be able to do what Cleveland could not? The Gov ernor's short political history does not indicate that he possesses stable convictions, or the courage of such con victions as he has, In sufficient degree to warrant his handling intricate prob lems of government. He rides Into office on the shoulders of ex 8enator James Smith, and then repudiates him.

He writes to a friend to Inquire if William Jennings Bryan cannot In some way bo knocked Into a "cocked hat" and then forms an Iron clad alliance with Colonel Bryan three years later. He has expressed very pronounced views on tho subject of Immigration, and now tries to wriggle out of the situation by extremely weak and evasive explanations. His Ideas on the general problems of government, on the tariff, labor, trusts and things in general, are hard to ascertain, since he rarely expresses the same opinion twice. Ever since he launched himself In political life he has spent so much time In altering his views of men and Issues, in explaining and re explaining, ana explaining away re explanatlons, that it would seem he cannot take a decided stand on any matter for any appreciable length of time. What, then, could be hoped from him In the White House? His Inexperience spells not merely Inefficiency, but disaster.

We are in the midst of an era of what may be called explosive politics, and only an expert can be trusted In aupreme charge, or we may parallel in our ship of state the catastrophes that have but recently sent fine ships and gallant men to the floor of the sea, with little warning, and only one lesson: that high explosives are always dangerous, it does not need a foreign enemy to destroy the pride of a navy or the hope of a nation. A President without knowledge, steadfastness, or confidence, can do more harm than Ip. hostile battle fleet. CAMPAIGN.

Washington Straw Saves Meeting in Ward No. 13 on a Windy Night The most remarkable campaign ever known In thla part of the State cloaca on Monday, ordinarily cam paigns close with the laat Saturday, but thla one, which breaks all precedents, will run right up to election day. The chunrea are that Dauphin county will poll another great vote. The reglatratlon In the city la greater than for the mayoralty election laat year, and In the county everyone seems to be wanting to vote. Men of every political party have been on the Job lately and tha number of words loaaed upon the air will probably not be equaled In campaigns for the next twenty yeara.

No hamlet In Dauphin county has been too small to be overlooked hy the men In Charge of meeUnga. and as for the ciy, every part has been visited by spellbinders. The moving picture, the band, the parade and the meeting have all Wen Invoked and thla year they will work up to Monday night. The Republican candidates In this district and county have Wen doing very well, when one considers the fight they have been up against. It seems to be certain that Republican Aaron 8.

Krelder will Candidate be the next Congress Now Certain man and that Edward E. Beldleman will be chosen to the State Senate. If for no other reason than repudiation of the outrageous campalKn waged against him. The Republican candidates for the House, Wildman and Dickinson In the city and Kooser and Row In the county, are declared to be In the lead on the home stretch. Over the river the lection of Franklin Martin to tho Senate Is put down by his friends as assured, and they say In Cumberland county that Ferguson and Mickey will be the representatives of that county In the next House.

In Perry county E. E. Marshall will be elected to the House and In Irf banon McCurdy and llader will be choen. The congrexslonal tights have been very Interesting In this part of the State. Every Hepuhllcan candidate ClHIgri'NH Itattlctt tio lng has been up against a fiKht like that which Aaron S.

Krelder has been muking here. In lancastcr CotiKressman Grlest will probably be returned with a majority not much reduced 1 yond what he had two years ago. I. Clinton Kline and A. B.

Careful estimates made by people In the Seventeenth district are that Congress man B. K. Focht will be elected again. (Is suuare Hnd manly tight has won him many friends and the people up In that district want a useful member.

The senatorial battles outside of Dauphin county have been waged as bitterly In some ses as in this coun ty, and Itepulillcans like EdwurU K. Beldleman, who have proved their worth as legislators, arc being assailed by new bosses of the Senatorial SklmilhlicN Hotly Waged Democracy. In Schuylkill the chances are very much In favor of the re elec lion of Senator Charles A. Snyder, while In the Iebanon Iancaster dis trict the cabal against Senator D. I.

Gerberlch will not be any more suc cesMful than that against Beldleman. John W. Hoke has Senator W. A. Mar tin, the Gettysburg Democrat, on the run In the Franklin Adams district, and Franklin Martin Is leading Jerome T.

Wanhington Straw, scribo and Democratic orator In many a defeat strewn campuign, paved a Democratic rally at Nineteenth and Derry streets lust evening.

The rally was to have been an open air affair, but the wild winds i. Wa ltlngton Straw Hurtles to the Rescue were blowing over the out lots and after a few preliminary remarks orators and orated sought shelter. U. N. Wallace presided with as much grace as possible In the chilly air and presented Iewls M.

Noift'er, defender of the camel back; his friend, E. W. Jackson, and some others. The brand of oratory was disconsolate and there was a movement for home when Mr. Straw was brought In.

Mr. Straw shook down the remaining leaves from the Thirteenth ward trees, went back to Thomas Jefferson and wound up In a peroration which Included tho American eagle, the horses from the State coat of arms, the globes and crescents of the city flag and Woodrow Wilson. It was a garrison finish and a lot of people were sorry to day that they had gone home. Just how large Is the silent vote going to bo this year Is the question which is agitating leaders of all parties, and if they could get a lino On that they would Itiniatc be able to tell a few Vary Like things about Pennsylva Weatlicr nla. Senator Penrose says the State Is for Tart.

State Chairman Wasson seen a turn for Taft and J. Hampton Moore is confident for a big vote for the President. "Bill" Fllnn says 200,000 majority for Roosevelt, while Tom Hicks says It will be 70,000. A. Nevln Detrich says 150,000.

Uncle George Guthrie says the State Is for WIlHon and craftily left his figures at home. Other Democrats expect the State to go for Wilson by anywhere from 15,000 to 75,000. I Political Sidelights The Democratic clubs of the city will begin their wakes to night. By the way, we have not been hearing much from Herr Moenleln about carrying the county for Wilson. Unless we mistake, there was some talk of that a short while back.

Now it's anything to save Nelffer. If Nelffer had it to do over again he would have put the camelback Into the Don't want to rernembery.
