The Des Moines News, one of the most prominent Republican newspapers in Iowa bids Teddy goodbye in an editorial outitled "Goodbye, Colo-J nel." Here is what the News said: "It won't work. | ^ "The progressive sentiment that j has stirred men of all partios in all parts of the country can not be chained to any party chariot. Not by Theodore Roosevelt nor anybody else. "Roosevelt Is not the prophet nor the leader of progress. He has no monopoly on It. "Rooaevelt has had New York wtftte to put an O. K. on the tariff bill.

Mountaineer, friends of John Moore, under sentence to be electrocuted for the murder of Frank Howl descended upon the Nelson county jail at I.ovitiKston, Va., at 1 o'clock Saturday morn in, stormed the building and rescued the prisoner. It is supposed he will be taken to the mountains and liberated. While the people of the county were asleep a crowd of 75 fully armed men from the mountain section where the crime was committed proceeded quietly to the county Jail. Admission was gained to the building and the guards awed into comparative non-resistance. . The ceil where Moore was locked up soon was found and he was taken out. It is feared that bloodshed will re suit from any a tempt of the authorities to recapture the murderer. Moore was condemned to pay the tdoath penalty by electrocution at Richmond an November 25. lie hao been convicted of having murdered Frank Howl In Nelson county last piay. uVIany of the mountaineer friends of the condemned man beliovaA him innncpnf The only telephone wire leading Into the section of the country where the crime wan committed and where Moore's friends live was cut before the rescue operations began.

Judge Parker sprang to in.-* B-?.t and begged the audience to allow Prof. Woodruff to be heard,. The noisier part of the house complied and quiet was restored. Prof. Woodruff began by opening j up the Bellamy Storer episode, which | Col. Roosevelt only recently declared ! was closed. He charged that the I Colonel denied sending Bella ai} !

The uprour over this attack bad barely subsided when the professor took up his cudgels again. Rooseeoit was twice a liar, he said, when he denied that tho late K. II.

HOUSE STILL IN DOUBT Ohio, Indiana and Connecticut I*ooks Safe for the DviuocrutN at This Time. The IHunocrnta und Insurgents Will Control the Next Senate. Trend Steadily Democratic. The New York Herald's Urd congressional forecast, which is publi.s i ed by it every Sunday, shows a gradual but steady siffening of Democratic cause. The apportionment of the doubtful districts between the two parties continues. In the lirst forecast there were 118 of such districts, in the second 90 and now 6i. With each division the Democratic lead over the Republicans has increased. The slguilicance appears unmistakable. Close attention this week is paid to the so-called Issue of 'CannouI ism." It extends In spots all over the United States, is not strong enough to prevent Mr. Cannou carrying the Republican caucus, but there are probably enough pledged against him who. w;ould remain out ot caucus to movent his re-oJectlon as Speaker of the House In the Sixty* second Congress, should the Republicans have a majority In it. ! The tendency toward the election of legislators which will choose United States Senators of the Insurgent or progressive type is so strong that the Herald at this early day forecasts a Senate after'March i, 1911, which will be controlled on all important issues by the insurgents and the Democrats. Here are the figures of the thiru | forecast in cold type. Of the districts sure or strongly favoring one party or the other, 179 are credited .to the I>eiiK>crats and 151 to the Republicans. Doth have, increased their strength aiace a week ago?the Democrats eighteeu and the Republicans j eleven. To obtain a bare majority of the ! House of Representatives the Democrats have seventeen to go, I he lteI publicans have forty-live to go. ! There are now apparently sixty-one doubtful districts. In making cow I parisons it should be borne In mind that the Republicans now hold a 17 [seats in the House and the Dem>[crats 174. Say lfiv Will Win. The Herald says that Democratic leaders, with faces agleajn. declare that nothing but a miracle cau pre vent the placing of the Kin pi re State safely in the Democratic column. Rop obi Icons, with o show of optimism, assert that "conditions arc improving." Democratic headquarters bu/.z with activity. Republican quartets luck the spirit and enthusiasm of other years. The Democrats have an abundance, of funds. Hitherto they have had in the up-tttate counties only the rusted ruins of an organization and a purse, so thin as to be almost invisible. The Republicans ure sore and .surly in section* where the Old Guard holds sway. In other sections they are. gloomy. From unbiased observers come the predictions that if the election were held now there would be no doubt of i the election of Mr. Dix and the prop- j able election ot the entire. Demoor.itic ticket. This feeling i.s shared by many Republicans. Some Democrats assers there Is a landslide coming. They assort that the Kotger year is to have a re-enactment. Some ot' the men who have proved good pro- j phots in the past declare that they, do not look for a landslide, but ex-1 < poet certain victory at leas: tor (no, i head of the ticket. j \ (Miki S<m?hi.s Safe. < The Herald's correspondent at Co- 1 lumbus, Ohio, says Judge Harmati is j as sure of re-election as Governor of Ohio tonight as any mortal can be j <u re of .anything except the. prover- c t>lal death and taxes. The ftopubli- I ;an campaign managers insist they' a ire going to put Warren G. Harding r ,11 the Kxe.rcutive's chair, but thoy c ivtll not hazard an ostimute ol the c )lurality, and their boast in based on j tope, not facts. <| The Democrats will make gains in p 3ongrcgg>Vuen as well as members of p he Legislature, but whether they t vi 11 elect enough to control the legls-1 at. n re is in doubt. If the Do mo- s rats win the legislature, they will v end a Democrat to Washington as v lenator in place of Senator Dick, Uo-' n ubUcftn.

Representation P IW TO HITS TEDDY HARD FORAKK1C SCXMtKK XKW NATIONALISM AS TUKASON Says* It Means Imperielisui, Pure and Sauiple, and Ibiugeious to the Liberties of the People. At Marysville, O., on Saturday former Senator Jos. D. Foraker signalized his return into active politics by going after Col. Roorevelt and his new nationalism, roueh shod. Foi akor "stood pat" on the tariff, deplored the activities of the insurgents urged senator Dick's reelection and indorsed Warren G. Harding for governor and the entire Republican State ticket. Me spoke of President Tnft's administration and I said Republican victory in Ohio means a great deal to the president. ' Referring to Col. Rossevell's new nationalism, former Senator Forakerj said: { "We have lately had a new declaration of political principled. I They are politically baptized as the j doctrine of a new nationalism. They . are set forth in the nature ot a plat-j form for h new party. Possibly they ! are intended for that use only in the event that the distinguished author be not nominated for the presidency by either of the old parties. "However that may be, it is well to uote that they violate our dual form of government by arrogating to I tn? national government me control of matters so purely local that th<*y j clearly belong to the jurisdiction of Tho Statess. | "Aside from all other objections, ' this new doctrine Is as certainly dr?- f structlve of our institutions as any ; Invoked in the name of the Southern Confederacy. "Such a preachment is not nation alism, neither new or old, but im- i perlalism. pure and simple. It is in spirit at least as treasonable as secession itself. "The power it would give to the : president of the United States would I be far more autocratic and danger- j ons to the liberties of this peop?e ' than are those of any monarchy in Kurope. 1 "The program has one saving tea- f ture. however.

Tint Washington correspondent of The State says Madame Humorwho is cousin to Dame Truth is circulating an interesting report concerning some of the happenings around the head(|narters of the Republican congressional campaign committee in Washington. It is well known that the Democratic campaign text-hook this ye if contains some able speeches made b* Republican members of congress during the last session of congress and during the tariff extra session of last year. # The committee having In charge the compilation of the book decided that it would bo good politic* to condemn the Republican party oiu of Its niombers'own mouths, sua hence the Republican speeches In the Democratic book. These Republican speeches, by the way, are tiled, with some good Democratic doctrine, which has taken poa? session of a wing of. the Republicans because they recognize- that the people were leaning toward the Democracy. Rut the interesting ratport that Madame Rumor is circulating, making the Democrats chuckle over It. if that certain Republican members of congress, in their efforts to secure reelection, have sent out, in bulk, large numbers of their speeches tc bo distributed amoug their constitutents under their franks. loiter on, however, it was found that the constitutents iu some case? we.re beginning to lebn So strongly in the direction opposite that supported in the speeches that the members in question got busy and sent messages directing their clerks not to send out the speeches, as they were likely to help the other fellow ! Sa far there has been no deiinit* confirmation of the rumors, as 1) would be disastrous to the Republicans if they were to let such a thing get out, and every effort is made to prevent its confirmation. It is positively stated that the rumor 1? not true; but the Democratic chuckting goes on; just the same. Rut some of the "returns," ot replies sent by Republicans In New York to the appeal of the eampai-gr committee for funds have actuail> fallen into the hands of the l>emocrats and been made public. On*' of the speeches is that of Charles C Cowan of New York. He wrote tb* chairman of the Republican committee as follows; "Your appeal of the tilth Inst, to my 'patriotism' has been duly received and read.
