"No man in the country not ex-
cepting President Taft himself. H
more delighted with (he Buccess of
the Taft administration than former
President Roosevelt. Mr. Roosevelt's
record has been an open book for ill
men to read and in the li«l>t of that
record no-man can impugn the ehïti-
ncter of his republicanism or fi'id
the slightest ground for suspecting
him of sympathizing villi the insur-
gents—that is the type of insurg-
ents of which Cummins and La Fol-
lette and Dolllver are the leading ex-J
amples. No man knows better the dif-
ficulties of t|»> situation with whic'i
['resident Taft has had to deal anl
therefore no man better understands j
tho full measure of the triumph J
which has crowned Mr. Taft's ef-
forts." This statement made by-^nflj
who is a close friend of both state:;-]
men an J has hud an opportunity to ι
talk long aiu] intimately with the';
former president since his return'
from abroad is merely a concrete'
expression of the news which has |
reached Washington from sever 1 '
sources and It Is borne out by the!
extremely friendly communications j
which have passed between Presi-
ient Taft and his predecessor but]
regarding which nothing further m.iy
be said. That this Is the attitude of
Mr. Roosevelt toward Mr. Taft and
his administration will not prove tho
occasion of any surprise to those
who have really known the former i
president although it may be to|
many who have merely assumed that1
they knew him or have been misled
by those who have enjoyed every op-
portunity of knowing him but have
Dot profited thereby. Even the pro-
moter* of the "return from Elba"
movement realised the necessity of
ι baaty and premature launching of
their misguided scheme in order
that it might not receive Ita quietus
before it was really launched as It
inquestionably would have done had
Mr. Roosevelt been on the «round
ud now that he has returned tt re-
lui res no political ρ re-science to fere
see that It le de tlned never 10
amount to more than "a schoolboy's
dream the wonder of an hour."—
