Aside from this shift of the labor (lenient the only real change Is In the attitude of Mr. Roosevelt.

The last Issue of the Radical, the mainstay of* the alleged Independence League rebellion, has a very frank fesslon of the Inst state campaign, from Editor Bernard Suttler. He says that Hearst gave an Individual con tribution of 11.000 to Yancey Carter, the candidate for governor. This mak«s the votes Carter sot cost Ilcarst one cent apiece, about what thev arc worth. Mi. Suttler further confesses the fact that hi# expenses were paid to the convention of the league. In Chi cago. and that he got ?loo In money, from Hearst. Further that there Is still owing him for extra copies of the Radical SI.200. and that some other debts are due Georgia people by the party. Further still. Mr. Futtler. seeing the need of a scapegoat, blames John Temple Graves for the failure of tha movement In Georgia. The whole con fession la an enlightening one. It re flects no credit upon Yancey Carter, the S1.000 man w*ho did not earn his money, upon Mr. Hearst. whose busi ness acumen was faulty, upon Mr. Suttler. whoa* attacks on democracy have been no bitter, or upon the de luded dupes who favored a mercenary movement with their vote#.
