gents. We may divide the insurgents
into four classes, as follows .
. "First, the calamity howlers. These
are Simon pure Socialists, and dema
gogues. They have no standing in the
Republican party, but masquerade un
der the respectable name "Republicans.'
The calamity howlers aim to create
political chaos so that by .hook of crook
they may be able to 'improve their de
pleted political fortunes. - The Republi
can party would consider Itself fortu
nate to get rid Of men of this kind.
The Democrats are heartily welcome to
them, and especially as their natural af
filiation Is with the Democratic party..!
"XTnlntelUgent Intellectuals."
"The .second class .may be termed the
unintelligent intellectuals. ; Ken of this
class are sometimes disrespectfully al
luded to as 'high brows.' The unintel
ligent, intellectuals : are ever ready to
suggest how everything should be done
and aratyiever ' able to recommend a
feasttfleway how anything can be done.
They are mere theorists1, a'nd are not
practical In the' affairs of life. You
are all. acquainted with-.- this very re
spectable, very admirable, but absolute
ly impossible class of the community.
The respectability of these men will
fortunately deter them from voting t.he
Democratic ticket, even If they have to
gag a bit, swallowing Republican doc
trines. - . .
Very Worst of All.
"The third class may be styled unc
tuous rectituditlonlsts. They are char
acterized by self-righteousness and
base their dependence upon the belief
Jhat all other men ere moral delin
quents. They do not scruple, it must be
said also, recklessly, to Impugn the
motives "of others, and to appeal to
prejudice and passion, if necessary, to
strengthen -their arguments. , You all
know this Sunday-Christian class in
your community. The, moral principles
of these men would prevent them from
voting the Democratic ticket. The line
of division between the second and third
class is not always strongly- marked.
"The fourth, and last, class of insur
gents may be referred to as progres
sive Republicans, as the difference be
tween them and' those who call them
selves regulars is too small to admit
of calling them anything but Repub
licans. I have a genuine sympathy for
this, class in many of their' conten
tions. ' .
"These men are sincerely desirous of
raising the standard of political morals
of the country. They are opposed ' to
unscrupulous' boss domination, just as
you and I, but some of us think they
are undertaking to remedy these evils
by untimely, ineffectual and too dras
tic methods, though I freely aumit that
moral suasion would not suffice to ac
complish some of their worthy aims.
The great majority, of these men are
just as loyal Republicans as any of
uh, and believe in the grand underlying
principles' of the Republican party. It
would be. doing violence to their very
natures to desert the grand old party
in time of need. These old Republican

SHERMAN CALLED -.
TO ACCOUNT FOR
PEANUT POLITICS
(Continued From Page One.)
Taft's wish 4hat no move be made to
ward choosing a. temporary chairman
without the fullest consultation with
Mr. Roosvelt. j A telegram from Mr.
Taft to Mr. Sherman to this' effect ap
pears to have been 11 suppressed, . for
nothing has been heard of it I'ask
Mr. Sherman if it is not true that in
spite. of knowing that Mr. Roosevelt has
shown a willingness to act as tempo
rary chairman, and' in the1 face of Mr.
Taft's telegram, he personally; solicited
votes for himself for" temporary chair
man xn Monday night in New York
city.
Threatens Farty Disruption.
"Mr. Sherman, by lendinsr tlilniself to
this act of petty politics, and by insist
ing upon holding the appointment as
State chairman, if he can hold it, has
allied himself officially with the Woodruff-Barnes
element and has threatened
the disruption of th party in the state.
The people are already doubting it to
be possible that a misunderstanding
between Mr. Roosevelt and Mr. .Taft. at
least -as .to the New York situation,
could take place. And I challenge , Mr.
Sherman te show sny act. or wprd on
the part of President Taft approving his
part In the recent transaction.
Taken to Task oa Direct Primary.
"At last we have Mr. Sherman In the
open on the subject of direot-primarles.
He has sneerlngjy observed that the last
legislature . settled this question , and
that the sentiment for direct primaries
has gone, on the supreme cort bench.
My answer to this is that Mr. Sherman
knows that it Is not so; that he knows
that s the demand for direct primary,
voiced by practically all the newspapers
In his former congressional district, has
never bee stronger than It is today.
And- that It is now" here1 stronger than
in his home county. I declare-his "state
ments on this subject as quoted in the
newspapers are insolent, in the face Of
the fact that Mr. Roosevelt Mr. Root
and Mr. Taft have declared their In
