Theodore Roosevelt declared in
favor of woman suffrage. In an edi
torial printed in the Outlook, he
says: "The vital need of women Is
to war against vice, and frivolity, and
cold selfishness and timid shrinking
from necessary risk and effort. The
vice and folly of men and women,
wlilnh leads to the divorce court, or
takes shape in the curse of volun
tary sterility, are fundamental evils,
of prime, of capital importance. The
ruin of motherhood and childhood
by the merciless exploitations of the
labor of women and children is a
crime of capital importance.
"I am glad that the good, wise
and brave mother should have the
ballot. I am especially glad if its
possession shall add to the dignity
of her position in the eyes of man.
The advocates of women's suffrage
will necessarily remember that the
highest type of the women of the
future must be essentially identical
with the highest type of the woman
of the present and of the past the
wife and mother.
"I believe that the suffrage move
ment will succeed. But I regard it
as of far less consequence than many
other movements for the betterment
of present day conditions as affecting
both men and women. Perhaps one
reason why so many men who believe
as emphatically as I do in woman's
full equality with man, take little
interest in the suffrage movement,
is to be found in the very unfortunate
actions of certain leaders of that
movement, who seem desirous of
associating it with disorderly con
duct in public, and with thoroughly
degrading and vicious assaults upon
the morality and duty of women
within and without marriage."

Here is an Indianapolis dispatch
full of republican politics: Taft and
Roosevelt sentiment was divided in
resolutions adopted recently by re
publicans of the state when they met
in thirteen district conventions. At
eight of the meetings Taft was in
dorsed for renomination. In the
Eighth district meeting at Muncie,
Roosevelt was indorsed in caucus. In
some of the districts which com
mended the present administration,
Roosevelt sentiment was so strong
that no mention was made of the
presidential preference. The repub
lican state committee will organize
in Indianapolis.

A San Francisco dispatch says:
Woodrow Wilson adherents showed
such strength at a meeting of the
democratic state central committee
here that a resolution indorsing
Hearst was squelched at the last
moment, and laid away. Then somo
enthusiast shouted: "Three cheers
for Harmon," and got only a volley
of "boos." Hearst and Harmon sup
porters then put a non-partisan slato
of delegates through the resolutions
committee, 13 to 7. The Wilson men
transferred their battle to the iloor,
served notice that Wilson was in tho
field to stay, and that no matter what
ticket was selected by the committee,
a ticket of Wilson men would go be
fore the primaries to elect delegates
to the national convention.
Resolutions indorsing Governor
Thomas B. Marshall of Indiana for
tho democratic nomination for presi
dent were adopted by the Indiana
demoqratic editorial association.
