stand-patters can beat Scott Fer-
ris in a political, free-for-all can-
vass, a new page will then have
to be opened in history.
The Hen. Scott Ferris requests
the News to inform the people
ol the Fifth district that he will
be unable to spend much time
among them. The Democratic
State cc mmittce has decided that
in the interest of the party he
must go into the Second and
Third districts to help the Dem-
ocratic nominees in those dis-
tricts. The race is somewhat
close in the Second and Third,
and hia services are needed. His
own district is securd, but we
should dll like to see him as often
as possible during the campaign.
However, la our loss will be the
Second and Third’s gain, we
most cheerfully, not only consent
but bid him God-speed in the
work he is doing for his party.
If \ oters all over the country
could be made to understand
what our government really
means, itwonld have a surpris-
ing effect upon the coming
election. Government for us is
not a thing that rules—it is
merely a matter of business.
The real fact is that the business
at Washington is not conducted
by the President or his Cabinet.
There is a big force of able
men who have held their pus •
tions long, and these are the
men who do their work and
hold their peace. The Presidents
power ia largely in the line of
publicity. He stands in the
limelight, but the work goes
right along without him. We
are ruled by the spirit of the
times, this spirit is supreme, and
r.o order, even of the Supreme
Ceu.'t. ia operative unless it is
backed up by public opinion.
The President, however, who
clearely feels and sees the trend
ox thought among the people
and their needs, can influence
the government machinery so
that it will work in harmony
with their wishes and require-
ments. Governor Wilson, by
his record and his frank and
lucid statments, shows that he
thoroughly understands arid
shares the sentiments ajid de-
mands of his countrymen, and
is the one man best fitted as all
are beginning to acknowledge,
to enter heart and soul with
them in creating a new life and
a new policy in this great
nation of ours. That he is the
man of destiny today, there can
be no doubt, and that he will
make good when he reaches the
presidential chair, everyone
carries the assurance t eep down
in his heart.
To the Democrats
of Kiowa Coanty
Servility! The instinct of
superiority in its lowest
form. The politicians virtue.
A means of getting on in the
--------- _ . world. A natural law, the
Scott ia among the very best!violation of which makes one
gitf JT^fTcra in ihe slot card will famous and poor. ;/
We should lose sight of our
personal feelings in regard to
.matters which are passed and
forever gone. Many of ua were
disappointed when the result
of the Primary Election was
announced. Some of our best
friends were defeated. The
boys could not all be nominated*
Now what are we going to doi
about it? Will we forget the
fact that a great Democratic
victory is in sight, something
we have looked for, and worked
for, something which will put
our country in a happy and
prosperous condition? Can we
afford not to take part in it?
No. I, for one, will feel proud
of the fact that I can be num-
bered as one of the many
thousand men who worked and
voted to free my people from
the oppression which is crush-
ing them to poverty and ruin.
When we examine the Republi-
can ticket to be voted in Kiowa
county we see there the names,
without exception, of men who
stand for Taft and his adminis-
tration; we hear their doom
pronounced, not alone by the
Democrats, but by the progres
sive Republicans, who refuse to
longer follow the standpat
leader and are coming to the
party who offers relief.
On November 5th, let us vote
the Democratic ticket by stamp-
ing a rooster; then on the morn-
ing of November 6th you will
hear him crowing in gladness
over the grand work which has
been done for Kiowa county and
the rest of the United States.
We can then sit back and watch
our country drift from under the
yoke of oppression into a state
of happiness and plenty; see the
mighty walls which have been
built by the Republican party,
to protect the interest, crumble
and give way to the light of day
which is full of happiness and
freedom to the oppressed of our
land. Then boys, let us take
time on November 5th, and help
by our vote to avail for ourselyes
the fruit of honest Government,
lours for victory. .

Milwaukee. Wis. Oct 14—Col.
Theodore Roosevelt was shot snd
slighly wounded tonight ss he
wss lesving the Kilpatrick Hotel
for the auditorium to make a
speech. The wound was super-
ficial and the Colonel went on to
the hall and began hia speech
after he had seen hia assailant
arrested and taken to the police
station.
Hemy F. Cochens sized the
man and held him until police-
men came up. A mob surged
around the prisoner. who
apparently is mently upset on
the subject of Roosevelt’s run
ning for another term as presi
dent.
The man, who is small of
statute, admitted firing the shot
and said that* any man looking
fora third term ought to be
shot.” In notes found in the
man’s pockets at the police
station were statments that the
assailant had been visited in a
dream by the spirit of William
McKinley, who had said, indicat-
ing Col. Roosevelt. “This ia my
murderer, avenge my death.”
The bullet struck a roll of
manuscript of Roosevelt’s speech
delivered tonight, and this prob-
ably saved the Colonel’s life.
After an hour’s questioning
the assassin gave hia name as
John Schrenk of 370 East Tenth
street, New York.
An X-ray examination of Col.
Rooaevelt’a wound showed that
the bullet lodged in the cheat
wall and did not peneirate the
lung. The wound ia not con-
sidered serious.
Col. Roosevelt left the hospital
at 11:25 p. m. He was able to
walk unassisted. **1 am feeling
fine.” he said. The Colonel left
for Chicago at midnight on a
epecial train.
Mercy Hospital, Chicago. Oct.
15. —Former President Roosevelt
was resting fairly easy Tuesday
night and his physicians said
after a day of nervous strain,
they were pleased with his con-
dition. The dinical record
shows, however, that his con-
dition was hadly as favorable
aa when he entered the hospital
this morning on hia arrival
from Milwaukee. Hia pulse at
10 o’clock was 86, or 14 counts
above noimal and two counts
above tht record two hours after
he was shot.
It was said tonight will in.
dlcate whether the pistol wound
inflicted on him last night by
John Schrank in Milwaukee will
heal normally.
Dr. John B. Murphy, who is
in charge of the case, left the
hospital before 10o’clock for the
night.
Colonel Roosevelt is resting
quietly, he said. He had a
small dinner. There was leas
distress in bis breathing. His
general condition ia exceptional ly
good and he should have a goed
night.
It was said no further ex-
aminations of the wound would
be made until Wednesday morn-
ing when there will be a consul-
tation. ... £
