NEWS WANT ADVS GET RESULTS ROOSEVELT MOT A , GOOD VOTE-GETTER HIS POPULARITY NOT SHOWN BY THE VOTES HE HAS RECEIVED. RECORD WILLSURPMSE MANY 6 In Ne jrk When He Ran for Gov- er. Did Not Get Full Party Supp W (f Presidential Vote n Analyzed Is Not to Hit Advantage. Colonel Roosevelt Is regarded every where as the marvelous vote-getter. "We are for Teddy because he will elect our county ticket," chorused the RooBevelt shouters prior to the re nomlntnatlon of President Taft. And even now, when, having failed to get the Republican nomination for a third term, he Is heading a bolting Third Party organization, there are many Republicans who Beem to think that he has a strong hold upon the people. The fact is the record shows that he is not a successful vote get ter. The belief which prevails in some parts of the country that RooBe velt has a magic hold upon the people is not supported by the facts. Mr. Roosevelt's own activity in self-advertising is largely responsible for the belief. Take, for Instance, his home state of New York. Here are the ngureB of the Republican vote cast In the three elections of 1890, 1898 and 1900, the two years before and the two years after Roosevelt was a candidate for governor: 1896, Black 787,516 1898, Roosevelt 661,707 1900, Odell ,.804,859 When Roosevelt ran as a candidate for governor he had behind him his prestigate of service In the war with Spain. Ho made a spectacular cam paign with a number of uniformed soldiers riding with him upon the rear platform of his special train. Even with this advantage he polled 125,000 less votes than Black and nearly 145,000 votes less than Odell. This shows that in his own state he is not the vote-getter which he claims to be. Polled Less Votes Than Taft. Colonel RooBevelt received an enor mous plurality when he ran for presi dent in 1904, but that was because ' 1,280,000 Democrats declined to vote for Judge Alton B. Parker. The real test of Roosevelt's plurality Is the number of Republican votes cast for him. He polled 7,023,48(1 votes, but even this number was 55,000 less than wore cast for Taft in 1908 with Bryan In the field and practical Democratic harmony restored. Do these figuTes show Roosevelt to be a great votc-gctter? The figures as to Illinois are also Interesting and instructive. In r.104 the total Republican vote for Roose velt was 632,645, but thla was 1,384 less than were cast for Charles S. Deneen for governor. Roosevelt was supposedly the Idol of the Republican party while Governor Deneen's nomi nation was secured at, the end of a three weeks' convention in which bit ter factional fighting developed. Yet Deneen, as stated, received 1,384 more votes for RooBevelt. An attempt is made to demonstrate Colonel Roosevelt's popularity by cit ing the fact that his plurality In Illi nois In 1904 was 305,000, while Taffs was only 179.000 In 1908. The fact is that in 1904 RooBevelt received 632.645 votes. In 1908 Taft received 629,929 votes, so that out of about 630,000 votes the only difference between Roosevelt's popularity and Taft's popularity as shown by the total Re publican vote was 2,713. Illinois is cited merely Decause u is typical of other states. Some Primary Figures. As Republican candidate for presi dent last spring, Colonel Roosevelt polled 61 per cent of the total vote caBt at the Illinois primaries, but only 42.37 per cent of the Taft 1908 vote. A majority of the Republicans of Il linois have not expressed a prefer ence for Colonel Roosevelt for presi dent. In a recent statement Colonel Roosevelt said: "The primary in Illi nois last spring definitely decided that I was the choice of the Illinois Republican voters for president." Colonel Roosevelt should be Informed than 42.37 per cent of the Repub lican vote In Illinois does not decide what 5T.63 per cent Bhall do with a bolter who denounced their party be cause it would not nominate him. Similar -ondltions prevail In other states. The foregoing record proves that Colonel Roosevelt, without regard to his other essential deficiencies. Is not a powerful vote-getter. The "win-wlth-Teddy" bumeombe is quite popu lar with Colonel Roosevelt and hl supporters with the hope of dragging into line timid voters and pot-huntine politicians. The facts show that as a vote-getter Roosevelt never had been as strong as hli party. He was not as FtronK as Black and Odell in New Yolk, there he is best known: althougt V'4ng agalnat a cripple In Judge ?wr ' he ran more than million -tV" behind his party strength; he was not as strong as Taft n the country at large; and he was STATEMENT NUMBER 1 C.

The current belief, stimulated by RooHevelt's own expressions, that Roosevelt is a powerful vote getter, 13 dlsproven rv the facts. lAMKiH DlltiCCTOH. iIODERN WOODMEN OF AMERICA Myrtle Camp No, 6330, meets every second and fourth Tuesday of every month in the Eagles' hall.
