soon shall they be undeceived. Active,
earnest agitation on the part of the press
is necessary to arouse public sentiment
and bring out the voters. Just criticism
and honest advocacy of candidates by the
press will add to it's power and pave the
way for clean campaigns between the
great contending political parties.
The aSsassinS of character and the pur-
chasable editors cannot long survive I'M
der the primary election law. NeWspa-
pers with an established character, on the
other hand, will WELD immense influence
and grow greater with every campaign.
The great majority of country papers are
owned and edited by men who seek to do
the right thing at the right time and
herein lies the hope for better conditions
in politics. When men and measures can
be judged on their merits and mot upon
manufactured testimony of the mercenary
or depraved press, then the will of the
people can be ascertained and moulded
into law. ~
The country editors now assembled in
Minneapolis have the power in their hands
TO make great opportunity for them:
selves and in doing SO establish the pri-
mary election law on foundation so
solid that all talk of it's repeal will be
banished from the halls of future legisla-
lures. The people are to be trusted.
Politicians must obey the will of the peo-
pie. Let the press serve the people and
the editor will not have to die to get his
reward.

PROMISES AND PERFORMANCE

~ " y ~
For some time prior to the election Of
1901, and all through the campaign Of
that year, the administration papers,
many Of the leading republican members
of congress, and republican leaders gen.
orally. unanimously declared in favor Of
a modification of the tariff laws. They told
the people that industrial conditions. the
rapid growth Of the trust, fostered by an
exorbitant tariff, demanded general re-
duction in the tariff schedules. A people
suffering under an. unjust burden APP
plauded the change Of heart and voted the
republican ticket on the strength of the
promises made. After the victory, the
party declared the,result to be an indorse-
ment Of the old conditions, and that their
promises were all wrong and there must
be no change. The old conditions must
again prevail; conditions which have en-,
abled a hundred princes of commerce to
control the commercial destiny of the ma
ton, and in controlling the commercial
situation. control the political affairs Of

abled few men to grow enormously rich;
