An article reports on allegations made by Supreme Court Justice David J. Brewer that President Roosevelt has been playing “hide-and-seek” with the American people regarding whether he will run for a third term. The article holds that Roosevelt has made his unwillingness to run again clear enough and criticizes Brewer for inserting himself into political debates as a justice on the Supreme Court.
