--------------- SENATOR BAiLEY'S S PLIGHT.

Senator Joseph w. Bailey of Texas finds himself in a most uncomfort- able and cheerless plight. His be havior as . lawyer has, it would seem, greatly impaired his value as . asenator in the eyes of his constitu- ents.
 On the other hand, if the move ment to prevent his reelection to the Senate should prove successful he would be practically disqualified to act as an attorney for the great corporations for which he has beer practicing. Kansas City Star.

Kansas had her "Sockless Jerry" and her ''Bewhiskered Pfeffer.' and now New York has her William Randolph Hearst. As agitators stir ring up the 'stand-pat-let-well- enough-alone" autocrats they have been and are all right. As further comparison we might add that New York has her Senator DePew, now out of jail, and Kansas her Senator Burton in jail.

THEIR MONUMENTAL NERVE

Speaker Cannon holds up Hearst and what he represents as a threat to the country of what the people may expect unless they will submit to the Cannon stand pat doctrine of Let well enough alone. This Can non 'bogey' will not freighten any body. The specter of anarchy and revolt will be exercised by simply crushing the life out of the stand pat theory by the mere weight of numbers. Whatever vitality or semblance of vitality the radical movement, embodied in Hearst's candidacy, may possess is the fruit |of such propagandists of special privilege as Speaker Cannon. Peo- pie know that by reason of the pro- tective tariff, which has built up trusts, conditions are not well enough If the Republican party come.out squarely for tariff revision and nominates a man like Secretary Taft for President, Hearstism will take its place with the Coxey armies of earlier periods. But it displays a spirit of monumental nerve for a leader of the reactionary forces in the Republican organization to point to the elements of discontent which he has done most to foster and use them as threat for the prolonga- tion of their vicious influence.
 The foregoing from the Kansas City Star contains much vital truth regarding the let well enough alone" theory now being preached being the cause of Hearst's great strength with the people, but it is sadly in error in asserting that a revision of the tariff would change the status of affairs, eliminate Hearstism and allay the unrest and dissatisfaction now existing among the people.
 1t is amazing that such paper should even intimate that revision of the tariff, as much as it is needed, would materially affect existing conditions, as far as trusts are con cerned, when it must know that the very worst trusts in existance those having the most far-reaching effects in plundering, enslaving and degrading the people are entirely independent of the tariff.
 We would be pleased to be told how a revision of the tariff would interfere with the Standard Oil trust, the Beef, Coal. Ice, Refrigera- tor Car, Railway, Telegraph, Ex- press, and a dozen or more other well established and well known trusts?
 That revision of the tariff would wipe out many trusts is true, but it will take mere vigorous treatment than that to eliminate Hearstism from the country.
