Johnson if ‘he decides to bolt. He has not been “in the party long enough to get real Swell acquainted.” ¥ One of the long and bitter attacks “on Roosevelt app rial entitled: “Col. he Fight for the People.” It said, in et; “Mr. Roosevelt in his retreat at P @Oyster Bay is still pursuing the policy Born partly of his egresinus cgotiom wand partly of his belief that he can ntinue to fool a majority of the Mpeople all the time, He still protes' "that he is making a fight for t eommon people of his country and (hat he Is their sole bulwark inst ie dominant eway of ‘special inter- fests.’ In this sort of claptrap he ts ‘abetted by certain newspapers, all fot which are absolutely owned. or fontrolled by the same interests. They retend to assail Mr, Roosevelt's can- idacy, which had‘but one cause—bhis fewn Huet for power and conspicuity. After referring to Col. Roosevi rging of a policy of armed Interven- Ption in Mexico and plea for an army feommand, the editorial continued: + “But ho was out of the limelight nd he was not happy in its shadow: ‘Then came the flatterers—the money ‘kings who had failed to win favor or favors from Taft; the ‘malefactors ‘of ei wealth’ who had been indicted y the courts, the rabble of the place- ‘hunters for whom Mr. Taft had not rovided—all the failures, the Incom- tents, the political tramps and the #political soldier of fortune, willing to @fight under any banner which prom- ised excitement and loot. i, “It was not in the vanity of the man resist those flatterers, His best ends tried to dissuade hinf-and rfeited his frien ip.

BE: Agawmac¢ * ; keep it against the the Star said “No doubt the Hon, George Perkins will Start a W. The Star made a great mumber of comments upon thia theme, pursuing it in all the aspects, On July 23 it said: “Col, Roosevelt was engnged at a late hour this afternoon making a fidjse like a man who hasn't any in. tention of divulging the size and source of the fund which he expended to lose the Republican National nom- ination in Chicago.” REFERENCE MADE TO ROOSE- VELT’S MILK DRINKING. It took other flings at him when- ever it could, as for instance, this paragraph in the fssue of July 16: “From the harsh way in which the Probibitionista speak of Col. Roose- velt one would never tmagine his favorable: beverage is milk.” And on July 30, this one: “By all means let Mr. Roosevelt stump the country in behalf of his Presidential candidacy. It will be too warm most of the time to attend the moving picture shows anyway, and the diversion may be entertaining.” As thé Bull Moose Convention tn Chicago tn the early part of August was approaching the Star became in- creasingly bitter and sarcastic over Col, Roosevelt, On July 81 dt ead editorially: “With a Roosevelt ticket in the field. in Ohio the Republican Party couldn't be much, if any, worse off than it has been for some time.” That same day it said: “Referring to the Progressive Convention, by this tame next week the reports from Chi- cago, no doubt, will have made us Acquainted with the Jargon commonly utilized by race horse touts and prize ring followers. ‘The Colonel's hat in the fing came in for a jibe on Aug. 4, when the Star thus delivered itself: “Up to a late hour this afternoon it had not been decided whether the new hat to be tossed into the ring has to be of boiler plate or asbestos." In commenting upon Col; Rodse- veli’s speech td the Bull Moose Con- vention which opened on Aug. 5, 1912, the Star in its issue of the following day said: “Don't laugh, boys; the first person singular pronoun’ I is veing slugged over the ropes to-day.” And on the following day: “It is evident that Col. Roosevelt docsn't expect ever again to be In a position similar to that from which he was rescued at San Juan Hill,” JIBES AT COLONEL'S MAL VANITY. When the Progressive convention gnded and Roosevelt was nominated for the Presidency, the Star on Au- gust 8 devoted more than a column to its editorial on denunciation of T. R. and all things Rooseveltian, After saying that the nomination had “af- forded T. R. a spectacle and tickled his abnormal vanity and appeased his hunger for applause,” the colum. continued: = * 4 “The glaring Roosevelt hypocrisy and the offending Roosevelt. violation of all rules of gratitude and political honor ‘and the sacrificing of friend- ship for personal gain, are all too ap- parent to escape their due considerar tion at the hands of @ people who give tn honesty and the square eal. “Every Republican who is nov blinded by hero worship of this Cae: sar feeding on ambition, knows that “ABNOR- Start ft Going Keep It.

But it added that Johnson was Governor State and as such prociaimed most humiliating figure. |‘Then {t said; “He puts him beneath | who ig more like | Roosevelt, for he won Wis, country’s plaudits and turned traitor when he might have gained in a victory, put him beneath Aaron Murr, the only equal of Roosevelt in arrogance, self- ishness and intolerance in all Amer- {oan history. tion made a very unfavorable esti- mate of Johnson at the Republican National Convention, “WEARIED WITH HIS BULLYING,” SAYS HARDING. “He was only less offensive than the nauseating Henry, oak of Governor of a gre commonwealth, but he offended with | * his egotism and wearied with his| ™ bullying and disrusted wi fighting altitude. i appears at close view to be both a fakir and a blackguard.” the Star thus The Colonel says he wouldn't be a king. Sure not. It is the Colone.’s ambition beyond a doubt to be the joker of the political pack And if the same issue: Col, Roosevelt would never consent to Roosevelt's, as, for instance, this paragraph for the iesue of August 22, 1912 “We'knew there must bé something especially winning about Bill Flynn. He offered two millions for the Pennsylvania Senatorship when the late Matthew Quay was retired by death. A two million dollar bidder looks good to Theodore, But it is a dangerous bulling of the market. 80 the rea®tionary, corrupt and heedless Republicans of Pennsylvania gave the place to Philander Knox for noth- ing and that fe why Bill inn (this difference in spelling ocours in tl editorial) is bull moosing.” ACCUSED OF MIDNIGHT MEET- ING WITH * P, MORGAN. Coming back to Roosevelt, as the Star now did almost daily, it said on Aug. 27: ‘The Bull Moose Campaign Com Mittee, it is said, will put out fiimi in the movies showing the incidents in Roosevelt's life from college to the time of his present political piracy. We will bet that the pictures will not show the secret midnight conference with Morgan and Perkins over the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company, his value of the black soldiers in Cuba, or his h ‘io appearance at the Gridiron Club. The Star appeared during August, 1912, seeking out historical compart- sons to Col. Roosevelt, and on Aug, 40 it apparently found one it liked for on that day appeared a single para- graph headed, “Aaron Burr, his pro- totype” and said this beneath | “In seeking a prototype for Col.
