Abbott. editor of The Outlook, came to be so mistaken in his‘pre— diction asnto the Rooseveltian pol- icies. Apparently their ways were too devious for even his . keen mind and personal acquaintahcv ship with the Colonel to grasp. It may be that Teddy is but another opportunist. whose destinies and policies are shaped by the” tendencies of the times rather than being guided by a fix- ed and determined policy Them 111 one thing certain and that is that the Grand Old Party is destined to be put to the su- preme test in November, no mat- ter whether it be “Bill" Taft or “Teddy" Roosevelt who heads the ticket. The question which is up. perm'ost in the minds of those in- terested in the campaign is whether or no the old ability to get together at the last moment still remains rooted deeply enough in the followers of the G. O. P. to withstand the test and rally about the standard insuffi- cient numbers to Carry the banner to ultimate victory. The time is precarious and not since the days of ’61 have the leaders of the party had such a nut to track. The outlook ll extremely doubtful. ‘ Mum RIGHT TO THE POINT. Rev. Lyman .
