Square the Deed with the Word.

OQudre the O6eQ WHIT tnS WOTO'
President Roosevelt, in his re-
sponse to the notification of his
nomination, we'll expressed the
position of the Democratic party
in this campaign. Their appeal for
confidence is based on the grouud
that "if triumphant they may be
trusted to prove false to every prin-
ciple which in the last eight years
they have laid down as vital, and to
leave undlsturbed those very acts
of the administration because of
of which they ask that the admins
tration be driven from power"
The Democratic candidate de-
sires to be known as a friend of the
gold standard, but until his nomina-
tion had been made, no one in the
convention professed to know what
were his vie ws on the financial ques
ton.
His spok kesman David B. Hill and
John F. Sheehan told the committee
on resolutions that they did not
know what views Judge Parker held
regarding the money standard.
The Democratic convention
polntedly refused to recant the
silver heresy of the party. 1t re-
fused by striking from the platform
very mild gold plank, and again
the convention refused to incorpor-
ate plank in harmony with the
view expressed IN Judge Parker's
telegram. There was nothing the
convention did that was more de-
liberate than this refusal to commit
thepartyto an acknowledgements
the gold standard is right and should
remain. And yet the Democratic
candidate is to ask his election on
the ground that he will prove false
10 his party and its platform, and
that he be given the. place of power
now held by President Roosevelt
because his election will threaten no
national policy for which the present
administration stands. Judge Par
ker supported Mr.. Bryan and his
silver doctrine in two campaigns
and had his vote determined the re-
suit, we would, today, have silver
standard. But now he asks that he be
made the protector and defender of
the money standard he opposed es-
tablishing by law.
The old fable of the wolves is
applicable. Judge Parker, like the
wolves, would ask the sheep to dis
charge the dogs and rely upon the
wolves for protection.
The Republican party does not
adopt such reasoning. 1t stands by
its record in which, as the president
we'll says eve have made the deed
square with the word" If the gold
standard is to be maintained it must
be in the same way that 1t was
established by an administration
and congress that believe in the
gold standard as principle and
not simply as means of securing
power. The sheep did not turn
from their natural protectors to
their natural and hereditary enemies
under the plea of the wolves. The
voters of this country will be as
sensible as were the sheep in the
fable.

There is nothing involved in the
tariff problem, as Democrats would
have the voters believe. The nub
of the proposition is that whenever
the protection is removed from an
American industry the employment
incident to that industry is simply
transferred from American workmen
to foreign workmen.

reply that the girl is pretty, agreeable

The Name Tibet.

Many forms of the name Tibet sprang
from the Chinese T'ubar (fifth century,
through the variations of Tuebet, To-
boet, Thibet Q165), Tebet 129S), to tt
bet (173O). The origin of the name has
been variously accounted for, but the
weight of historical evidence indicates
that the word is derived from Tubat, a
famous family name proper to several
ancient Tartar dynasties, extensively
used in the sense of "chief."
Hodgson asserts that before the ar
rival of Indian teachers the people had
no name for themselves or their land,
and, though the present name is not, as
some say, unknown in the country it.
