There is much prejudice developing against Gov. Thomas Marshall among temperance people.

Every new movement has its embarrassments. There are always ^discontented "non conformists," who are never satisfied with anything that exists. They are looking for something new, and always join the new organizations. The new party will have this class to contend with.

The Democratic party and Deroocrats feel jubilant now. They see victory in the future. It is one '.time in a campaign when we can ".•not say to them that they are too •confident but we do say to them now, that we know no party which "the responsibility of national administration will so greatly embarrass as the Democratic party.

Its ideas are wrong and will bring .business and industrial troubles. The Democrats are happier now 'than they will be in four years from now. The Democratic .party will not be able-to please even the •Democrats.

If Theodore Roosevelt is guilty as he is accused by Penrose and others, he is the Prince of Political ^Hypocrites. If he is honest and sincere, he isvbeing greatly abused.

We do not believe that he nor Penrose can fool the people in the con- .. troversy. If Roosevelt is not guilty we believe he will be able to prove his innocence. If he is guilty, we do not believe he can escape the condemnation which he deserves. So far as we are conVi ceraed, we want the truth of the whole matter, no matter who or what party it injures.

^•Machine is only another name T^'lor political organization. "Bosses" j^is only another name for a dictating, driving leader of an organization. Everything is done by 'organization—church work, fraternity /^-worST school work and all kinds of business. Organization is necessary in politics, and the political organi zation or boss in poltics is .not so much worse than the people, for the reason that he is the creation of the people. They can make or unmake him, if they have the cour age and interest to do so. One of the chief reasons why there are political bosses, is because of the indifference and apathy of the peo pie. Too. many people do not take part in the primaries, which initi ate the organization. If the peo pie are indifferent in th§ir duties in primaries, they m^tke th^ way •«asy for the selfish man who wants to be a bossrp
