For President: Theodore Roosevelt. For Vice President: Hiram W. Johnson. OUR PLATFORM: The People Shall Rule. OUR WATCHWORD: J Hquare Deal, to Every Man. The registration books are now >pen. See to it that your name 'h written there. trocit) ot the Seed, was freeiy condemned by Col. Roosevelt’s most ardent oppo nents. Strong, honest, stalwart men and women of America we ap peal to you to fight as never be fore, Socialism in all its variny formSj because this avert act is another confession of their direct creed in action. Their doctrine being that all great leaders in business, state and church should be destroyed, rfJgardless of the method employed, Therefoie, we ask again that you here and now take a firm stand against Socia,lism and anarchy. Socialism has become so des perate that it no longer waits for a man to occupy a Public Office, but if possible, snatches his mas ter life away while yet a private citizen. Added to Socialism and anarchy, is the bitter utterances of the Tory Press that has con tinually hurled false and malici ous charges against Col. Roose velt in every phase of Jtiis life work, and this assault is the sad and empty harvest of the entire sowing. In this dark liour, «we simply bow in silence our head and heart filled with grief and truly ask, ithat not ours, but] the Will of Him that sent us, be done. ;B« N«t Deceived. in VELT SBBT AT MILWAUKEE Milwaukee, Oct. [5. 1:30 a. m. —Roosevelt's wound now report ed more serious than at first thoughou^ Milwaukee; Wis., Oct 14—Col. Roosevelt left the hospital at 11:25 p, m. He was able to walk un assisted. - ‘*I am feeling fine,” he said. He will ieaie for Chicago be fore midnight. Milwaukee, ;Wis., Oct. 14.— Just atj the Roosevelt special was leaving a sudden change in plans was made and the engineer was ordered to hold the train. It was said Colonel Roosevelt pro bably would remain here await ing the arrival of Dr. John B. Murphy, a Chicago suregon. Roosevelt Assaulted Our heart is bowed in the deep est scsarrow, -news has just reach- sd^s. of the. criminal assault aiade upon JCheodore Roosevelt jh Milwauk^ Monday, by a has- Sardly assassin. When Roose- ^’as nominated for Vice- ?re«ident the Bosses thought !ihey had him buried. ,^When he feft the Piesidency they thought ihey were through with him. When they defeated his Candi date for Governor of New York Shey boasted that his power had iianished. When they deprived bim of the nomination at Chicago Shey again sent forth the vaunt that he was down and out. No doubt some of them will inwai’d- IV rejoice that the assassion’s Juliet is lodged in his honest breast, but this tragedy will only serve the more securely to en* shrine him in the hearts and af- ieetions of the American people. £t demonstrates to them that Anarchy a»~well as Bossism, re gards him as its most dangerous k>e. It is but the natural culmina tion of the undeserved abuse that has been heaped upon him and Vi e interpret it as a stroke of Providence designed to demo- onstrate to the, American people that a man of Roosevelt's iron, will and tunconquerable courage © needed in this hour of the aation's peril; and we verity be- 'seve that if his life is spared a greatful people- will show their appreciation of their greatest and mightiest fellow-countryman on the 5th of November, by again fiving him the largest popular ?najority ever recorded in the unnals of the Nation. SocialisQi:—The Harvest Great God of nation be with us yet while unto Thee, we cry to stay the assassin’s wilful heart and murderous hand, ere 'tis too late. Monday night our minds were 'refreshed of the horrible murder ot our beloved William McKinley in Buffalo eleven years ago, when some blackhanded villian at tempted the life of Col. Roose velt while in Milwaukee. The wires flashed the news that an enemy of Roftseyelt and a real Socialist had mfede real his creed of Socialism by attempting to murder Col. Roosevelt. The friends and admirers of the C©1- «ael were stuftned with the ag- Brethren, be ' careful lest your political action, you see the folly of your error too late. Theieareafew certain politic ians jn our County who are using all kinds of argument and dece^)- tion to cause you to shrink from service and shirk your duty. Beware, we say, beware because everyone knows that there yet live in our midst who have trad ed off the entire Republican par ty for a mess of postage, denied their friends and betrayed their companions for only a hope of personal gain. These same would be friends are daily skulking up to the side of many Progressives under the guise of a friend and brother and begging you to again be a t oUtical tool and foot stool for a common ward healer. You have been deceived in the past, we know it. The question we ask is will you again permit the same deceiver to lead you off for personal gain and selfish mo tives. Be slow to hear and linger be fore you heed the advice that Tait is on the gain and will win, and tl , at Roosevelt is wainingind will be third in the race. The Rural Weekly says, Roose velt leads in Indiana and Penn sylvania. The New York Herald, a strong Taft organ, "ives Indi ana and New York !u Wilson, but evades a report of the poll of Pennsylvaniii, lilinois. Kan sas, Minnesota, California, Washington, Wisconsin. Michi gan, West Virginia. Maine, Iowa and the Dakotas, where Roose velt leads. It is not a question of who leads in the election as to who you support, but the primary motive is who is right in' this great triangular procession of political demagogues led by American Statesmen. We appeal to you in no selfish vain of any hope or desire for that to which we are justly entil ed. but to rehiember that today's battle is one of progressive thou ght and laction against political iars and thieves. And we verily believe that the God of (nation that presided !^at Waterloo, at Gettysburg and at San Juan Hill is yet with us, and will lead us ever aright in vary ing scenes of life. Therefore, we urge you to guard your political feet and see that you are not snatched from the path of right o the road of the steam roller of toUtical and federal graft.

Miss Bessie Winston of Oxford waa tre jpest of Miss May Barr et for» few days the past week. Milwaukee, Wis., Oct. 14 — Colonel Ro^st'velt was shot at by a man in b-- some to be a socia list (()! igut, just as he was leav- iiiii the Hotel Kilpatrick for the Auditorium. His injure are said to be trifiing. It is said,the Colonel put his right hand underneath his coat and over his left breast but ap parently was unhurt. The man who is said to have fired the shot was whiskered away in an auto mobile patrol wagon and landed in the Centeral fetation. Henry F. iCochems, chairman of the speakers bureau of the Progressive party, captured the would-be assassin and it requir ed the services of four policemen to keep him from being dealt with summarily. The Colonel asked to have the man brought to^ him and when the would-de assissin was asked why he fired the shot no reply was offered. Colonel Roosevelt stood UP in his carriage, waved the crowd away and started for the Auditorium. The man who did the shooting refused to give his name. He had on his person a copy ^of the the C&loner4 itinerary, written on a sheet of note paper taken from’ the Bismarck Hotel and cafe, Nashville, Tenn. The would-be assassin is 5 feet 5 inches in height, weighs 170 pounds, light complexion, bald, fairly well dressed. He confessed to the police that he fired the shot and made the remark: Any man looking for a third terra ought to be shot." Fully 500 persons followed the patrol wagon, eager to get at the man who did the shooting. The weapon used is said to have been a 32-caliber revolver. A written projclamation found in the clothing of the man who did the shooting read: “September 15,1912,1:30 a.'m. in a dream I saw President Me Kinley sit up in a monk’s attire in whom |I recognized Theodor® Roosevelt. The President said: ‘i’his is my murderer, avenge ray ueath.’’ ‘■September 12, 1912,130 a. ni. while vvtiling a poem, some one tapped me |on the shoulder and said: ‘Let not a murder take the presidentui chair. Avenge my death. ’ "1 could plainly see Mr, Me Kinley's features, “before liie Almighty God, I svvear. Mr. Pence was highly optimistic as iraCh." Another note found in the man’s pocket read: “So long as Japan could rise to the greatest power of ihe world despite her surviving' a tradition more than 2,000 years old as General Nogi so nobly dem onstrated it is the duty of the United Slates of America to iip- hoid the third-term tradition. Let every third termer be regard ed as a traitcr to the American cause. Let it be the right and duty of every citizen to forcibly remove a third termer. Never let a third-term party emblem ap pear on the official iballot. ‘ 1 am willing to die for my country. God has called me to be his instrument so help me God.

Roo^evci’ than to have all the the wealth of New York. .The work of Colonel Roosevelt hias more weight, for go(,>d in this land than that of all - his detractors put together. _ This that we have just quoted was uttered by Etiha RiX>t. It will be welcomed as an felfective contributions to ' the portrait which we are trying to present. But let^us add a few more vigor ous strokes. ' The Republican party has reach ed its highest service under the leadership of Col. Roosevelt. His admistration is an epoch in Amer ican history. In no other period since national sovereignty was won under Washington or preser- ed under Lincoln, has there been such mightly progress in those ideals or government which make W justice, equally and fair deal ing among men. The great accomplishments of President Roosevelt. have been, first and foremost, a brave and impartial enforcement of the law the prosecution of illegal trusts and monopolies the exposure and and punishment of evilders in the public service the more effective regulation of the rates and ser vice of the great transportation lines the complete overthrow of prefences, rebates fand discrimin ations the arbitration of labor disputes, the amelioration of the condition of wage wojrkers every where, the conservation of the natinoal resources of the eonntry the forward step in the improve ment of the inland waterways, and always the earnest support and defense of every wholesome safeguard which had made more secure the gurantees of life, liberty and property. These are the achievements that will make for Col. Roosevelt his place in history but more than all else, the great things that he has done n^ill be an inspiration to those who have yet greater things to do. Thus we round the portrait, with the above extract from the platform of the Republican party in national convention assembled just four yeara ago.—North American. ippppppiii^ V ' ‘Ml) ' it SS.SO Queen Quaky are speciany' n;3^e for women.
