Why Change?
Why should there be a change in the national administration? What's the matter with Roosevelt? Has anything gone wrong? Has it been necessary to issue bonds to pay the running expenses of the government? Is there any money in the treasury? Has the soup house asserted its supremacy since the palmy days of Grover? Has Theodore Roosevelt betrayed any trust reposed in him, or has he manifested any symptoms of spinal affection? Has the so-called Democratic party advanced any assurance to the American people that they are any more proficient in the twentieth century than they were in the nineteenth? Can they satisfy the honest, industrious, producing citizens of America that they seek for anything but to again grasp the surplus and again empty the treasury, as they have on every previous opportunity?
