A special from Spokane, Wash.,
says that St. John, formerly govern
or of Kansas, who has come to Spok
ane to begin the fight for prohibition
in the state of Washington, made two
predictions in the course of an In
terview: "Nothing but his death will pre
vent the nomination of Theodore
Roosevelt to succeed President Taft,
and if he Is not elected no other re
publican can be.
Ten years hence there won't be a
legalized snloon within the bound
aries of this commonwealth. Spokane
will be 'dry' in five years from this
time."
Mr. St. John said among other
things In itpcaking of Roosevelt and
Taft:
"Theodore Roosevelt Is the sharp
est politician in the United States.
But for him Mr. Taft would never
have been thought of for the presi
dency. Roosevelt knew Taft, and so
do I, but he knew that Taft is a putty
man, soft putty at that. Roosevelt
helped to elect Taft. lie knew that
his ad in I n 1st ration would lie a failure.
"Roosevelt went off to Africa. He
Is not mixed up in any of the ques
tions before the lieonle today. In
the course of 18 months he will re
turn, covered with rhino hides, ele
phant tusks and glory. The 'howl
and yell' element In politics will raise
the cry for Roosevelt. The country
will go 'wild' over him. Nothing but
his death will prevent his nomination
to succeed Taft, and if he Is not elect
ed It will be because no Republican
could win."
Governor St. John's name In the
abovo Is a reminder of ancient presi
dential history, t lie election of Groer
Cleveland In mi. The republicans
bad nominated Blaine and Logan,
two fearless Americans, the former
tho most noted man of his day, and
the latter the idol of nearly a mil
lion of the Civil War veterans.' Cleve
land had been sheriff of hit county
and governor of the state of New
York, and was without national re
nutation. The campaign wan con-
iliieted on personal lines to a very j
large extent. The republican candi
date, however, had the beat, of it by
long odds when the campaign was
near Its (lose. Everything seemed
to hinge on the state of New York,
which had that year 3." presidential
electors, so the 'struggle centered In
the great Empire stale.
Unfortunately, at this time three

things happened. Rev. Uurchard, a
Presbyterian minister of some prom-
innra made a talk at a meeting in
New York city In which he arraigned
the democratic party, tersely chars-1
ing that it was made up of Hum,
Romanism and Rebellion." This
neech was used by the Democrats
among the Catholics of the state of
New York, who had been sppporting
nialne. and with some effect. The
friends of the noted senator, Rosroe
Conklln, of New York, called upon
him to save the day, but he refused.
having had a personal difference
with Mr. Blaine, and consequently u
was said that he "sulked in his tent"
and flatly refused to enter the fight.
St. John, who had been twice gov
ernor of Kansas and a candidate a
third time, had before the republican
convention been anxious to go to
Chicago for the reason that the pro
hibitionists were Intent. on getting
a plank in the Republican platform,
but the governor's enemies In Kan-
made un of those who were anxi
ous to re-submlt the prohibition
amendment, had control In the state
convention and defeated his election.
When the Republican national con
vention convened in Chicago bt.
John was there as chairman of a na
tional committee of prohibitionists
and these asked a hearing before the
committee on platform. This was
denied in the curtest possible terms
and St. John, who for more than 20
years had, In every campaign, can
vassed his state for the Republican
party at his own expense, turned
away from the convention with the
remark "I am no longer a Republican."
The governor went Into the cam
nalgn that fall as a leading orator for
the national Prohibition party and
did effective service in Western New
York, reducing the Republican vote
In that part of the state to the extent
of defeating the party. This was
generally acknowledged, but those
who did not care to give all the credit
of Blain's defeat to St. John said that
If only one of the three episodes
mentioned had not occurred James
G. Blaine would have been elected
president.
' The scene In Topeka the night the
election returns came in beggars de
scription. The community was deep
ly disturbed and the crowds around
the hotels, composed of fully two
thirds of Republicans, felt the de
feat of the "Plumed Knight" as a
culamitv to the country. St. John
was looked upon as the one mnn who
was responsible' for it and even his
warmest friends blamed him for the
disaster. There were men present
who expected office at the hand of
the Republican administration pro-.
vlded they won tho election, and
these were loud in the denunciation
of St. John. Finally a man who was
said to be slated for the United States
marshal's office, led a party who pre
pared an Imago representing the pro
hlbilion governor, soaked it. in coa
oil and then hoisted it to a telegraph
polo near tho. corner of Sixth and
Kansas avenues nmld th .1"'vs of
the rougher element. After a time
some one set tho Image on five and it
burned with a great lila.e which st
fire to the polo to which it was tied
and It was then cut down and allowed
to bum to ashes on the ground. This
was 2" years ago, -or will be n'xt
