If they have party loyalty, now of all times, is the hour to show it. Political disappointment is not a thing that is mecessarily fatal. Many men and possibly better men than ourselves have survived it. Personal political revenge is a small and mean thing. It is an unworthy thing. Totally beneath men of honor and responsibility. The word of the majority is the highest law. It is the anchor by which we have outridden all of our storms, political and otherwise, for a hundredgand fifty years. When we disregard this simple law we court only disorganization and confision in our public affairs. Good Republicans everywhere have only one line of action to follow with safety. And that is to ac- quiesce in the official determination of results and support and furthermore elect the ticket that has been chosen by the Republicans of Wyoming. The candidates are all good Republicans. They are on our ticket by the will of our own fellows. Any op- position ticket has been selected by our enemies, and Republicans have never asked their enemies to do their picking and choesing for them. Within ten days the whole aspect of things po- litical will have changed and he who preaches trea- son will be conspicuous because of his foolishness. Fighting Dead Issues ITTLE NOURISHMENT can be dérived from quarreling over the Newberry expense account in the Michigan senatorial primaries of several years ago. That incident is closed, and we trust the pay went to the persons who did the work. The actual cost of keeping Henry Forv out of the American senate, whatever it was, was worth the money. It will be admitted that he can turn out more flivvers per twenty-four hours than any living maker of cars, but it is not admitted that he would be of any Yalue as a member of the United States senate. For a gentleman serving a great state as its representative at Washington must know something more than how to obtain volume in output and Mr. Foxn knows but little else. Im some states they are conducting political cam- paigns with the Newberry advertising bill as the issue, and this is not taking place in Michigan either, the state having the greatest interest in any su¢h discussion. It would seem that with hundreds of other pub- lie“matters crying for attention, real live issues, there is little need dragging in dead ones like the Newberry contest which has been settled by the courts and all but forgotten. Whatever lesson is to be taught by the expendi- ture of campaign funds for favorites has been im- parted in the Newserrr-Forp case long ago. For heaven’s sake don’t disturb the political churchyard for topi¢s for discussion. Local Protectionists Only [PRE TARIFF BILL passed the senate by nearly a two-to-one Vote. To be exact, the vote was: Yeas, 48; Nays, 25; Not Voting, 23. Of the 23 who did not vote, on account of absence, or some other cause, 12 would have voted for the bill, if present, and li against it. This would have made the full vote 60 for and 36 against. Only three Democrats were consistently protec tionist throughout, voting for the measure on the final roll call. They were the two senators from Louisiana, Brovssarp and Ranspeit, and Kenprick of Wyoming, who is up for re-election. Some weeks ago Asnunst of Arizona ounced, that if, in his belief, the bill was an honest bill he would yote for it. He was at that time splitting the blue empyrean with speeches for protection on Pima cotton. The senate gave that commodity 7 cents a pound. Asiuzst wanted twice that much. He also voted for high protective rates on other commodities, in the majority of instances for higher protection than the senate conceded. Finally he voted against the bill. He will now attend to his Arizona campaign and attempt to convince his con- snatched at 15 cents a pound on Pima cotton re- coiled from a bili whose general average ad valorem jon all imports will be about 13 per cent. On all Texas products Suerrarp of that state voted for the highest possible protection, he also outbidding the senate on those products. But when the showdown came he voted against the bill. There [van no limit to the duties he would exact for pea- nuts, vegetable oils, Angora wool, rice, etc, but when it came to protecting the products of other states he was a tariff chameleon. Hzrzry of Ala- bama demanded a prohibitive duty on graphite. The records do not show what financial interest he has in that commodity. It is a new Alabama in- dustry, created by the late war, which has been closed down during the past three years of competi- tion under the Democratic tariff la The graphite industry received adequate protection from the sen- ate, but when the final vote came Hxrum had switched to the free trade side. Fistcmm and Tras, of Florida, who had been so solicitous for protection to citrus fruits and pineapples, went back to the free tradé camp when the whole bill was put to a vote. About the time peanuts were being discussed in the senate Swanson of Virginia was campaigning for reelection, and Virginia is the goober state. He voted for prohibitive rates on peanuts, beat Westsonstaxp Davis for the nom-| Joxzs of | ination, and then voted against the bill. New Mexico followed in the footsteps of Asnunst and will emulate that nimble gentleman in his cam- paign for re-election. And so it went. Naturally, congress and the country have a far greater respect for those Democratic senators who were out and out free traders and went down with their flag fiying, than they have for those who car- ried a locker full of colors from which selection was made to meet any expediency. The truth is these kaleidoscopic flag-filyers know full well the Re- publicans would pass a bill which protected all in- terests, irrespective of section; so they sought the backing of the importers for re-election as free traders, and of their immediate constituents as high priests of protection where the interests of those constituents were concerned. They made the tariff a local issue because by caliber they are local office holders. Cost of Strikes ‘S\ECESSABILY rough estimates of the losses which the strikes of the miners and railroad employes have already caused, directly, show appal- lingly large figures, which are likely to be greatly exceeded when the ultimate reckoning is made,” is the view taken by the Albany Journal. “The number of striking miners is estimated at 690,000, and that of voluntarily idle railroad work- ers at 550,000. On that basis there is an average daily loss of $7,500,000 in wages, making a total, thus far of $200,000,000 or more. “Loss of the mine operators is estimated at something like $250,000,000, on the basis of $1 a ton for the bituminous coal that would have been mined in the time of the strike. Estimate of the loss of the anthracite mine operators is omitted. presum- ably because it is considered that intensive opera- tion will to a degree make up for present stoppage of carnihgs. “And it is estimated that the railroads have al- ready lost about $1,000,000 through diminished oper- ation facilities and conditions that required extra- ordinary expenditures. “These estimates make a total loss of more than half a billion dollars, of which nearly half is suf- fered by the workers. “Most of that loss can never be made up. And then there are the innumerable indircet losses 4rom compulsory reduction of activity in industries which require abundance of coal for continuous op- eration, and from decreased purchasing capacity of the million and a quarter workers who are without their regular wages. “It is obvious that there isn’t anything that can possihly be gained by the strikes, which can com- pensate the strikers for the losses which they are sustaining, whose enormous total is steadily grow- ing while these workers remain idle.” Perfection Unattainable QF24zINe before the Institute of Politics at Williamstown, Mass., Dr. Rearrann Fusisawa of the University of Tokio, closed a very interesting address on “Democracy” with these words: “Perfection in this actual world is unattainable, but some scorn of selfishness and some hate of wrong are essential for the smooth working of democracy. On the other hand, as a practical ques- tion, some scorn of self and some hate of wrong are only incompatible with possessing more or less margin in the means of living which, I believe, is covered by the name of ‘high standard of living’ Such considerations would show the validity of what I have said concerning the extension of the electorate and the education of voters as the two processes of perfecting a democracy. I see no rea- son why the two processes should not go on side by side instead of one after the other, particularly in a country where one feels most acutely the lack of wealth and resources which the necessary for furthering the advancement of education. “Moreover, in this respect, all countries of the world, not excepting even the most advanced ones, are still in a state of transition. Such considera- tions would show the validity, even if only for the present, of my definition of democracy. In any case, one thing seems to be beyond doubt, and that is, that every nation has the right to its.own concep- tion of democracy and no nation has the right to demand that its conception of democracy should un- conditionally be accepted by all other countries of the world. + “It may be asked whether my conception of de- mocracy is shared by the large majority, if not all, the thinking men of my country. I say decidedly: ‘No’” Yet the speaker bravely gave them forth as those which he hoped would prevail in Japan. oe ee Things to Worry About ANOTHER THING to worry about is the fact that a hard winter is coming and the country is sewed up by strikers and poor Henry Forp only has 100,000 tons of coal on hand. No wonder he bought a railroad and is now trying to acquire a set of mines. First thing we know Thanksgiving will be here and Henry with hardly a million tons of coal stituents that he was a high protectionist as far as their interests were concerned, but the bill “was, not an honest bill” and the conscience which in the house! But when a man is using about 4,000 tons of the black diamodns in a day it is important to be looking ahead.—Los Angeles Times.

The \dividing line will disappear before | jthat time, not because women are jgoing to quarrel to hnr-e it re- jmoved or even because they are going to prove their ability, but jsimply because conditions are go- Jag automatically to rectify them- (selves. Record of Two Parties The women’s division of the Demo- cratic national committee has issued publicity alleging that the Republican adminstration has not treated the ex- service men falriy or justly. “As a result of this alleged mistreatment according to the women's publicity the Democratic national committee, “thousands of women are joining the’ Democratic ranks.’ The pubilcity which is written by Mrs. Antoinettc Funk, prominent Democratic leader, states: Women are tender where our soldiers are concerned, and this alone has sent thousands of them into the Democratfe ranks.” If any woman is being persuaded to Join the Democratic party by the argu ment that it has treated the ex-service men better than the Republican party, ahe giosaest hon: bug The real test of the comparative attitudes of th: Republican and Democratio parties toward the ex-service men is furnished In the records of those states which are wholly Republfean and wholly Democratic. It is in such states that the dominant party cannot escape re- sponsibility for lack of interest in ex service men any more than it can bt denied credit for what it does for the ex-sorvice men. Comparing the rec ords of Democratic and Republican states we find the following facts: (1) Since the armisti¢e the legisla- tures of 20 states have provided for the payment of cash bonuses to ex- service men. Without any exception those 20 legislatures were Republican and states which are known as Re- Publican states. In five of these states a referendum is necessary to validate the action of the Republican legislature and such a referendum wil! be taken at ths coming November elec. tions. These five Republican states, together with the gmount of cash bonuses voted by the Republican leg- Islatures thereof are: Tiiinots $ 55,000,000 22,000,000 25,000 000 4,500,000 35,000,000 Total ------------.-$141,500,000 In 15 Republican states the Repub- lican Jegislatures have voted bonuses which do not have to be approved by (referendum and which are already being paid. These Republican states together with the amount of bonus authorized by the!r legislatures are: $ 3,000,000 36,000,000 30,000,000 23,000,000 15,000 000 1,500,000 12,000,000 25,000,000 30,000,000 2,500,000 6,000,000 1,500,000 12,500,000 28,750 000 a $227,350,000 In addition, the Republican legisla ture of New York voted a bonus of $45,000,000, which bonus law was later declared unconstitutional by the higher courts in that state. Excluding New York, this makes a total of over $368,000,000 in cash bon- uses which have been voted ex-service men by the Republican states. Be- sides this, the Republican legislature of the Republican state of Californ‘a has provided for the issuance of $10, 000,000 in bonds to be administered by the Veterans’ Welfare Finance Com mission to be expended for ex-service men and their dependants providing educational and vocation ald and fur- nishing financial assistance for the purchase of farms and home. voting of cash bonuses is not the only legislatures for the benefit of ex-serv- ice men. (2) Seventeen Republican states have by law granted ex-service men prefer. ence in all civil service employment. ‘These Republican states are California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Ne- vada, New Jersey, Oreron, South Da- kota, Washington and Wisconsin. No Democratic state has enacted such a law. (8) Seven Republican state legisia- tures have enacted legislation exempt- ing ex-service men from state and lo- cal taxation. They are Connecticut, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan New Jersey, North Dakota arid Wyoming. Only two Democratic states+Texas and South Carolina—have enacted such a law. (4) Twelve Rapublican states have provided educational aid at public ex-]| pense for ex-service men.

This is! because they lack experience in the political field and because in order to get the things they have wanted in the past they have haa to be bi-partisan, As they pro- gress politically they will find that they can do thelr best work through party organization, and that their duty and their inclina~ Hon will be to elevate the parties and to clarify many conditions which are now cloudy. Theré are more Republican fomen in the United States thax Republican men. This is because ‘women absorb their political be- Mefs from their fathers and grand- fathers rather than from ‘ein husbands. The fathers and grand fathers of the Republican women’ of today lived in the strenuous Gays of the Republican party and hence were loyal to its early an@ splendid principles.

California, Colorado, Ilinols, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Ne New York, Oregon, South Dakota and Wisconsin. Only three Democratic states have made such a provision—Kentucky, South Carolina and Tennesee. (6) Five Republican states nave en- acted laws lending financial to exservice men whe wish to buy homes. They ure Arizona, California, Idaho, Oregon and South Daketa. No Democratic state has made such a pro- vision. (6) Ten Republican states have en- acted laws lending financial ansist- ance to ex-service men who wish to buy and equip farms. They are Ari: zona California Idaho, Minnesota, Ne- New Mexico, Oregon, South Da- kota and Washington. Only one Dem- ocratic state—North Carolina—hes mate such a provision. (7) Thirteen Republican states by law make provision for state relief for needy ex-service men. They are Con- necticut, Idaho, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, New York, Oregon, South Dakota, Wash- ngton, West Virginia and Wisconsin. Two "Demouratic states—Oklahoma and Tennessee — rake such a provi- sion. (8) Four Republican states make le- mi! provision for assisting ex-service men to find employment. They are Mussachusetts, Nebraska, Nevada and Washington. No Democratic states make such a provision. (9)*Three Republican states make provision by law for loaning funds to needy ex-service men. They are Ore- gon, South Dakota and Washington. No Democratic state makes such a provision, 0) Eight Republican states have es- tablished welfare commission: or boards for the benefit of ex-service men. They are California, Idaho Towa, Montama, Oklahoma, Oregon, Washington and Wisconsin. No Dem- ocratic state has made any such pro- vision. (11) Nineteen Republican states have by legislation provided for the admii sion of ex-service men to state hos- pitals with free treatment while i the hospitals. They are Arizona, Call- fornia, Connecticut, IMnols, Indiana, Towa, Maryland, Magsachusetts, Michi- gan, Minnesota, Nebraska, New York, Ohio, Oregon Pennsylvania, Utah, Washington, Wisconsin and Wyoming. Only three Democratic states make such a provision—Oklahoma, Tenne- see and Texas. Not a single Democratic state has passed legislation giving any bonus of any sort to ex-service men. ith the rare exception noted above, con; ‘ined to Texas and North and South Carolina, no state in the Democratic ‘Solid South” has passed any legis- jJation of any kind, however trivial, that lends the least assistance to ex- service men or accords them any rec- ognition or preference in public em- ployment. ~— The three states of Mississippi, Aia- bama and Arkansas, represented in the United States senate by Pat Har- rison, Tom Heflin and Tom Caraway, have done absolutely nothing for ex- service men. Yet these Democratic senators vociferate constantly sbout the love of the Democratic patty for the ex-seyvice men. They are loudly assisted by such Dem tic votal- ists in the house as Huddleston, of Alabama. In each of these states there | have been at least two regular ses-| sions of the state legislature since the end of the war, but th have not *aised their voices at hame to get even The Twins of Reliable Drugs In buying your. drugs there are two paramount things to consider—Honesty and Purity.

When they bad control of the United sta Congress after the war they did noth- ing for him. The record of Democrat-| ic officials under Wileon, handling fed- eral agencies dealing with ex-tervice ™men, Was a record of brutality and in- competency and a gross squander of money which was officially condemned by both the American Legion and a special committee of the United States | senate, upon which sat the Democratic j Gonaeees ‘Walsh of Massachusetts, and Pomerene of Ohio, both of whom signed the report of condemnation. Woodrow Wilson as president ig- nored repeated requests of the Amer ican Legion and other é¢x-service men to correct the scandals im connection with Democratic ex- ecutives handling ex-service men's cases. The attitude of the entire Wil- |son administration was tike that now jexhibitea by South.” It is the characteristic atti- | tude of the Democratic party towards the soldiers of the nation, as civil war veterans can abundantly testify, and Spanish-Americtan war veterans can corroborate.
