HOPE IN THE DEMOCRACY.
Former Senator Villas Declares Pure
Political Principles Will
Triumph.

At the Iroquois banquet, Chicago,
April 13, Former Senator William f.
Villas, of Wisconsin, spoke in part as
follows:
"To one who brings TO the contemplation
of the democratic outlook naught but the
hope to see his country happier through
democratic principles the famous council
table of the lroquois club proffers alluring
charm. The pleasing consciousness per
vades him that he enters here the fraternity
of true believers, instructed, ingrained "
the doctrines of constitutional liberty who
put no dominion over the tongue but the
truth of the soul behind It.
Sound democratic faith like true re-
ligion is never cut Of place in reckoning
the conduct Of life. The time was-and It
as the day of party gory-when demo-
rats lived in close familiarity with party
principeS And, shockingly as honesty in
politics has been befouled by the corrup-
tion of protection, trust that day has not
wholly passed
What though the spoils-seeking scoffer
may cry: This is not practical politics, but
IItopian counsel, which wins no majority
in the polling booths" Oh, ye OF little
faith! Here is democracy's fundamental
commandment, trust in the people; the un-
DERIVING rock of popular liberty. II is the
grand strategy OF democratic war. In this
sign we conquer or we conquer not at all.
ITO the plots Of protection, that arch
demon OF governmental inquity, ITS very
name a cheat has been surrendered con-
troll of legislation in barter for service of
ambition. Bethink you OF the change OF
30 years. Democrats so long ago foretold
Us bitter fruit by concentration IN few
hands of the wealth produced. by the
masses TO make the rich richer the poor
| poorer Has the prediction failed?
Twenty years ago we pointed TO It's hate
| FIJI children OF sln-then coming to light
| trusts and combinations to fleece the pub
lie by extortion and warned against their
| Increase. Was that warning false?
How long, o Lord how long Is this in
| iquity to lie upon us? The answer Il. ines

| shall prevail, or the surges OF revolution
heave il off Stop 1t cries every dictate
| OF liberty justice and patriotism. Stop ii,

TAFT AS A MoUTHPlEcE.
Roosevelt's Method of Checking Any
Demonstration Favoring Phil
ippine Independence.

The st. Louis Republic conjectures,
no doubt accurately, that Mr. Roose-
velt spoke when Secretary Taft de-
clared that it would be many years
before the Filipino would be fit for
self-government. 1t thinks, says the
Albany Argus, that Taft was selected,
because he used to be governor-gen-
eral OF the Philippines, and on the
theory that what he said would carry
more weight than any other cabinet
mouthpiece.
OF tn utterance itself the Republic
says
1T is called out by the formation of the
Philippine independence committee. Some
of the best-known men In the country, re-
gardless OF politics, compose the commit
tee that seeks what the democratic nation
al platform of four years ago sought.
Among those on the committee are: Charles
Francis Adams, of Boston; Judge George
Gray, of Delaware; w, D. Howells, the nov-
elist; David Starr Jordan, president of the
Leland Stanford university; Bishop Pot
| ter, of New York; Bishop Spalding, of ILL
nois; George Foster Peabody, the phian-
| Veagh, Henry Van Dyke and Hoke Smith,"
In the opinion of our St. Louis con-
temporary. it is small wonder that
when these men and others equally
prominent in philanthropy, religion,
literature, the sciences, the arts and
politics move for the independence Of
the Filipino, Mr.. Roosevelt hurres one
of his numerous mouthpieces to the
fore with carefully prepared and
censored speech calculated to counter
act the influence of such men. But
can he succeed?- Pit wonders.
1t may be remembered that Presi-
dent Schurman, of Cornell, one of the
first Mckinley Philippine commission,
takes an altogether different view
| from Secretary Taft's.
