BUSINESS AT THE OLD STAND,
From the New York World
Republicans nesd bave no misgziv-
ings about Col, Roosevelt's if-you-have
any-doubt-on-on-the-saubject -do - not -
nominate-me, There is only one
condition nuder which Col. Rooseveit
will not accept the Republican nomi-
nation for President—the refusal of
the Republican National Convention
to nominate him.
It makes po difference what the
platform is. The Colopel will take
the nomination if he can get it. It
makes no difference what the record of
the Republican Party in Congress is
toward the protection of American
rights against German sggression.
The Colonel will take the nomination
if he can get it, It makes no differ-
ence whether the Republican Party is
officially for peace-at-any-price or war-
at-any-price. The Colonel will take
the nomination if he can get It. It
makes no cifference whether the Re-
publican Party is under the domi-
nation of Wall Btreet or Kansas,
whether its motto is ** America First’
or ‘‘* Deutschland uber Alles.” The
Colonel will take the nomination if he
can get it,
We think he will get it, The favor-
ite sons are all in the scrar-heap, No-
body ever took them seriously. Jus
tice Hughes might bave had the
nomination, probably on the first
ballot, if he had res‘gned from the
United States Bupreme Court two
months ago and formally announced
his candidacy. He has waited until
it ia too late, Roosevelt has siready
dealt him out of the game.
The Old-Guard Republicans who
professed to be for Hughes were never
sincere. They did not want Hughes,
They hate him and distrust him. He
is not the kind of man they can do
business witb, Some of them may
hate Roosevelt too, but they can do
business with bim, and they know
that that business can always be con-
ducted on the standard basis of 50-60,
They never had serious trouble with
Roosevelt antil he tried to resume con-
trol of the party in 1912 without first
making the necessary arrangements,
This time the Colonel has attended
to the arrangements two monthe in
advance of the convention, The deal
is practically consummated. Nothing
remains but to work out the details,
and while there will be grumbling
and protests from organization Repub-
licans here and and there, they will all
be shouting for Roosevelt at Chicago,
and Wall Street will be underwriting
hia candidacy as it did in 1904,
isThe Progressives are going to be sold
out, of course, but that is what they
are for. A distinguished Southern
clergyman wrote a book before the
Civil War to prove that the negro was
created to be sold into slavery and
thereby brought under the spiritual
influence of Christianity, That is the
status of the Progressive Party in the
Roosevelt scheme of things, and in
two months the Colonel will be ex-
plaining to the brethren who battled
for the Lord al Armageddon that
their new chins are a special badge of
honor, like the Iron Cross, and con-
ferred only upon thoss who never
faltered in toe fight,
Al present, Roosevelt, for strategic
reasons, may pretend to fear that the
Republican Party is not worthy of
him, but that is a temporary disabil-
ity. The way for a party to mske i1-
self worthy of the Jolonel is to nomi
nate bim, and the Colonel is attending
to that part of it himself.
FROTEOT FISH AND GAME,
Determined to Pat Step to Kobbing *treams
of Trout Through Use of Nets —~FProseou-
tion for Those Caught,
The true sportsmen of Millbeim
have organized an association which
they have named the Fish and Game
Protective Association, Buch an
organigation has been made necessary
in order to protect the interests of true
sportsmen, besides preventing the
wanton destruction of game flesh and
animals by a class of game hogs who
use the cover of darkness to shield
them from the hands of the law,
For many years past the streams
about Millheimm have been stocked
with trout and yet when the flsher-
man who strietly obeys the law at-
tempts to catch a few of the speckled
beauties with rod and line, he finds
the fish so scarce tha! there Is very
little rea! sport connected with the
game, This is the result of the work
of night raiders who have no regard
for the law and use nets to thoroughly
deplete the streams of the few flsh that
are placed therein,
The members of the association
pledge themselves to protect the fish
and game, and so determined are they
to abolish these illegal practices thst
not even a brother will escape prosecu-
tion if caught in illegal fisting or
hunting.
The officers of the association sare R.
®, Stover, president; B. M. Stover,
secretary ; and 5, WW, Gramley, treas-
urer, They invite sll true sportamen
to join them in this good movement,
Also, those who have been engaged in
the illegal game are invited to give up
their vrong dolog and join the ranks
of the conservators of our native fiah
apd game,
