Jasper County Democrat, Volume 7, Number 22, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 3 September 1904 — Parker Satisfactory; Roosevelt Obnoxious. [ARTICLE]

Parker Satisfactory; Roosevelt Obnoxious.

Smiley N. Chambers, United States district attorney 7 for Indiana under the Harrison administration, has a very high opinion of Judge Parker, and it is evident from a recent interview that he is strongly inclined to support him. He does not say he is for Parker, but when he declares that Parker's personality is satisfactory to all the people and that Roosevelt is obnoxious to many of the business interests of the country, he virtually says that the president is obnoxious to him, because he is intimately associated with business interests. Here is the deliverance of Mr. Chambers on this point: "The personality of Mr. Parker is satisfactory to the entire people at this country. No one, Republican cr Democrat, can object to him. The personality at President Roosevelt is obnoxious to many,of the business interests of this country. The personality of the two candidates will cut a large figure in this campaign. “The Republicans are confronted by the same conditions as in the Blaine campaign of 1884— a very popular cat* didate with many classes of people—who failed to command the confidence of certain conservative and influential elements.** Senator Fairbanks continues to hold to hie 15,000 Job.
