ROOSEVELT'S popularity, n's demoust ruled by tho
prininribs in Illinois, Poinisylvnuin, Oivgon and
Nolmiskn, portends his noininaiionand election. It is a
sinister thing for any republic when any strong, unscrupu
lous man becomes as popular as Roosevelt is in the United
States. '
The popular idol is ant; to abuse his power. Caesar
destroyed the Roman republic through his popularity, as
Napoleon later shattered the .French republic,
Two divergent; views of Roosevelt, showing how he is
regarded by hero-mad worshipers. and by opposing pro
gressives, are given below. One can almost see AniKony

LAST CHAPTER IN FAMOUS
"DICK TO DICK" LETTER
JUNEAU. April 22. The Juneau
land offlco has notified Fran F. Da
vis of Lake Mills, Wis., Arnold L.
Scheurer of New York City and Jas.
J. Ryan of Katalla that their filings
of soldier scrip on the shore lands on
Controller Bay, Alaska, haa been re
jected because of non-compliance
with tho law In filing. Tho land was
fjied on, February 13, 1911. On Ap
ril 20, 1911, Sonator La Folletto in
troduced a resolution in the senate
culling on the secretary of tho In
terior to furnish. all facts connected
with the coal entries mudo upon the
lauds withdrawn from tho Chugach
national forest reserve, and later re
stored to tho public domain by order
of President Taft. It was alleged In
tho nowspapors about that time that
Rlchrtrd 8, Ryan, said to bo a repre
sentative of tho Guggenheim-Morgan
uyndicate, had been permitted,
through connlvauco of President Taft
oud Secretary of tho Interior Ballln
gor to obtain control of the wholo of
tlio waterfront of Controller Bay.
' In July of that year was publish
ed what purported to bo a lettor from
Ityan to Balllnger, which began,
'Dear nick," and onded, "Dick."
Both Dallingor and Ryan denied all
kuowledgo of tho 'letter. This loiter
niontloned "Charley Toft" ns having
used his Influence) In faVor of Ryan.
A congressional commlUeo started an
Investigation of Ryan's qlalms, but

ran no more question his authenticity and his strength
than we ean doubt the velocity of a eyelqne. He is more
than a man. He is a destiny. Uo encases in the flesh the
dynamic force of the age that gave us Edison, Gomncrs
and Mrs. Eddy. Hut the Titanic forces within him arc
controlled by a curious power, an, instinct, marvelous and
inexplicable, that is not entirely human. Socrates called
this power his daimon. To Napoleon it was-his star. Still
nameless' in "Roosevelt, this power constitutes tho secret
of his success.
"In Theodore Roosevelt the paradox of the century is
made incarnate. For this reason, to some, he seems incon
sistent. That appellation, just, when applied to a shop
keeper, is inadequate to describe the orbit unintelligible
i .. i ;..: a i.i... jk.i .. .i a . i' t
iu iiicuiucrity oi inc eccentric maiict oi ijemus. xsoose-
velt, in spite of apparent evidence to the contrary, never
contradicts himself. He cannot contradict himself. He
himself is a contradiction. He is a radical. He is con
servative. He is both.
"The insurgent and the conservative are, in him, per
fectly and cunningly balanced, lie is in sympathy with
both great time currents. Lie gazes into the future and
roots in the past. He vibrates with the great radical move
ment whose colossal spasms convulse the land, his soul can
thrill with the rage of "Voltaire or'Oanton, but he is also
strong enough to oppose himself to the madness of poten
tial Robcspierres. Life is not logical. History is not log
ical. To Roosevelt the great antinomy is revealed. If
truth be the moon, Roosevelt, unlike most men, can dis
cern metaphysically at lelist both sides of the mys
terious disk.
"Like the Bible and the English constitution, like
woman, like life itself, Mr. Roosevelt is above consistency.
He is as fundamental as the Ten Commandments. He is
as sound as the Constitution. He has the intuition that
makes of woman a superior creature. He is as right as
life itself. He may manifest himself, like Proteus, in many
aspects, some revolting to hyper-sensitive minds. But he
who follows him cannot go wrong in the end."
Better King Log Than King Stork.
The other view of Roosevelt, of the Roosevelt the
demagogue and opportunist, is set forth in the calm, log
ical language of Louis Post in the current issue of the
Public as follows :
"In one of his recent campaign speeches, Mr. Roose
velt recurred to his usurpation in the Panama case. Lt
is a startling disclosure of his notion of what he means
when he talks' of 'carrying out the will of the people.' In
the Panama case, so he himself says, T guessed in ad
vance what the will of the people would be and I guessed
right.' If he hadn't guessed at the will of the people, and
carried out his guess as their will, there would have been
masterly debates but no canal so he further says. In
stead of letting the people express their will in advance,
he guessed their minds in advance, and, as he adds, 'took
the Isthmus, started the canal, and let them debate' him.
And now he justifies his usurpation because he 'guessed
right. Couldn t that be said for Caesar? Wasn't it
habitual with Napoleon?
"And what reason is there for hoping that Mr. Roose
velt, if again in power, would limit his guessing at the wil
of the people to public works and the invasion of weak
nations? Suppose he should guess 'in advance what the
will' of the people would, be' about invading a powerful
nation and thereby beginning a great war out of which he
might emerge as 'the Man on Horseback'! Not to guess
at the people's will, if the conditions for such an invasion
and its consequent war were ripe, might open the way for
masterly debates but no Avar; whereas by making the in
vasion and starting a war, he could 'let them debate' him
instead of the war. And wouldn't he 'guess right' in such
a case also? The war once begun, wouldn't it be the peo
ple's will to prosecute it? Or, if-not their voluntary will,
couldn't Mr. Roosevelt use treason statutes to guide the
will of the people in the direction of verifying hi. guess?
"There is nothing in our piecent political situation
more ominous than Mr. Roosevelt's popularity. It is the
popularity at a democratic crisis of a demagogic despot
in the confidence of plutagogic schemers. Better by far
Talt than Roosevelt, ll the choice be indeed so unhappily
limited. Better King Log than King Stork. Better an
Aristocrat full-fed with conservative traditions than a
Progressive hungry for personal power."
