PROGRESS DOES NOT,
MEAN STANDING PAT.
Judge Parker Refers to the Slogan
of the Republicans.

of the Republicans.
Bridgeport, Conn.,, Nov. 3.-when
Judge Parker's special train pulled in
to the station here from New York to-
day the Judge was received with an
outburst Of applause by the people,
who thronged the platform. Parker
was Immediately welcomed in a for
NAL way by Gen. Henry A. Bishop,
candidate for lieutenant governor on
the Democratic ticket.
After luncheon Judge Parker was
driven with Gen. Bishop to the Third
Regiment Armory, where he delivered
an address to an audience which taxed
the capacity of the building. When
Judge Parker entered the audience
cheered for five minutes. Judge Par
ker said in part:
During the past few years an en-
tirely new doctrine has been preached.
It's logic is that whatever else we have
done in the world, whatever human
imperfections may still exist. so far as
the levy of taxes is concerned, we
have reached absolutely perfection.
The phrase standing pat used to de-
note this idea, may not be elegant, but
II Is. at least. expressive"
Judge Parker gave historical in
stances OF standing pat" and blocking
the way OF progress. and said:
The whole OF modern progress has
come largely from the refusal OF the
world 10 stand pat Each successive
generation has recognized the virtues
and accepted the labors of its prede-
eessors, but In doing 80 none has even
declined or refused 10 recognize new
demands or 10 correct old abuses
There is no more reason why we
should not revise our national revenue
laws than there would have been az
other periods OF history 20 stop all
progress. This is especially true OF
r,...tl....l - MOO. is.

NOT OVER ENTHUSIASTIC.

/ The nominees of the national demo
cratic party, Judge Parker of New
York, and Senator Henry NJ Davis Of
West Virginia, have not been received
with that welcome and enthusiasm
which beget confidence. Not in years
has the nomination of ticket fallen so
fat, and been received with such indiff-
erence by the party adherents and peo-
pie generally, as that combination made
at st. Louis by the democracy. Not,
seemingly, because the gentlemen plac-
ed in nomination are not men of charac-
ter and standing in their respective sec
tions Of the country. They are not,
however, and never have been national
figures The platform on which they
were nominated does not inspire conf
dence even with a majority of demo-
Gratis. On every matter Of Importance
there was an attempt to straddle, espec-
tally on the tariff and money questions
The latter was entirely ignored, but
with good deal Of courage the nominee
for president Immediately telegraphed
his firm adherance to the gold standard.
This he realized was essential to make
anything Of showing in the east at the
election, but this action has created a
deeper division in the democratic party
than the leaders are willing to admit.
Under existing CONDITIONS 1t is plain to
be seen that democracy expects very
small results in the west and middle
west, and that the great fight win be
centered in the states Of New York,
New Jersey, Connecticut, Rhode Island,
Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia.
These, with the vote of the solid
south, would make a total of 233, or
within six votes of majority. 1t is al
so stated that very vigorous fight will
be made to carry Illinois and Indiana,
with lingering hope that the division in
the republican ranks of Wisconsin may
also yield sr1it to democracy.
SGAming mp the manner and haracter
Of campaign to be conducted by the do
moracy Walter Wellman, the brilliant
correspondent OF the Chicago Record
Herald, says When Judge Parker's
managers decided to name ex-senator
Davis Of West Virginia for vice presi-
dent, they were simply carrying out the
candidates plans. The program is to
meet the enemy on his own ground to
fight with his methods. In other words,
the democratic leaders say the republi-
can party wins through thorough organ
ization, through rigid discipline in its
own ranks, through practical politics in
handling the masses. In plain English.
it is the democratic plan to fight fire
with ire-to use large sums of money
in the campaign, to rally corporation
and railroad influences, to buy or bully
their way to success.

Editor Munson, like all humble edi-
tors refrains from saying anything COM
plimentary of himself in connection
with the nomination for senator. His
record as senator ia one of which he and
Vernon county may we'll feel proud.
Some Of the representatives in the Iegis-
lature betrayed their constituents by re-
fusing to assist in carrying out the pied
ges. This charge cannot be brought
against Senator MuEson and Assembly
man Dahl
The Times believes that our present
representatives should be kept in the
harness for another term they ARE the
old stage horses they know the road

the third assembly district consisting of
Vernon county, and the twenty eighth

RnR A coMPuLs oRY PRIMARY IAW.

Chicago Record Herald Evidences
of a determination to carry out one
promise Of the Illinois republican state
platform are seen in the resolution de.
manding compulsory primary election
law which was adopted by the new re-
publican state committee at its first
meeting.
That this initial step toward carrying
out a reform which Mr.. Deneen made
prominent in his campaign for the gu
bernatorial nomination should have
been taken directly after the organiza-
ton of the new committee is highly
gratifying to republicans and demo
Gratis all over the state who realize the
importance of taking the nominating
and restoring them to the people.
In the one hundred and two counties
In Illinois it is possible for few gang
sters and bosses to get together and abb
solutely dominate the primaries Of
either party, giving the people no
caoice in the selection of delegates to a
convention, and thereby controlling the
nominees of the party. The necessity
Of reform in this direction was amply
demonstrated in the campaign for dele
gates to the last republican state con-
yention.
Illinois wants compulsory primary
election law, operative in every county
applying to all political parties, The
resolution adopted calls for the appoint
ment Of a committee to prepare bill
and to take charge of the campaign for
its enactment by the next legislature.
The campaign should be inaugurated at
an early date 50 that candidates for the
legislature may be definitely pledged
to its support p"
Have you read the above carefully?
Ii not read it over again and note how
closely it news to the line of that for
which La Toilette and his sdherents
have been coutending in Wisconsin,
and who in consequence have been called
selfish, dictatorial disturbers, who
should be read OUT of the party. 1t is
disturbing all right; that's unquestioned.
But who have been disturbed? Only
the vote-buying bosses and the vote
selling gangsters. And four years after
'ae agitation was begun in Wisconsin,
che initial step in the same direction has
been taken by one Mr.. Deneen, whose
nomination for governor Of Illinois was
so pleasing indeed throughout Badger
dom The initial step is highly graft
flying to republicans and democrats al
over the state who realize the impor-
lance of taking the primaries out of the
hands of the bosses and restoring them
to the people, declares the Record Her
aid What is good for Illinois is good
for Wisconsin All abuse of La Fol-
lette to the contrary, this new move in
Illinois must be taken as evidence that
he is simply ahead of the times so to
speak. He's progressive and for the
right. As the Review of Reviews fol
July says Wisconsin will yet learn
to be proud of possessing man so brill
liant and so highly fitted for public ser
vice and leadership as Governor La
