FOLK TO THE FRONT
Missouri Governor in the Race for the
Vice Presidency.

Missouri Governor in the Race for the
! Vice Presidency.
; Denver, July 10-Governor Folk, Of
Missouri, has sprung to the front in
the race for vice president. Word was
taken to Charles Bryan that the Mis-
souri, governor would accept the nom
nation. Immediately w. ]. Bryan was
notified and talk for Folk spread
among the Bryan delegates. Elimina-
ton has been rapid in the great field
Of candidates. Within sight of the
goal are only four, Governor Folk,
John W. Kern, of Indiana, Ollie James,
Of Kentucky, and Archibald McNeill
Of Connecticut.
Tammany's refusal to name its can
didate left Charles A. TOwne far be-
hind. John Mitchell, of Illinois, while
there are persistent runors that he
would take the place. will have to go
after it actively to overtake the four
leaders.
For Governor Folk the first real en-
thusiasm has been manifested. His
nomination would help clear up Mis-
souri, politics when his term as gov
ernor expires in January. He has an
nounced himself a candidate for the
senate. BY taking him out of the sem
ate race Mr.. Bryan would do a great
service to his old friends Gum Shoe
Bilr' Stone, now senator.
In Governor Folk Mr.. Bryan would
also get a running mate radical
enough to please his friends, and so
well and favorably known as TO add
strength to the ticket. Mr.. Mcneil,
doomed by Bryan's close friend, Alex
arder Troup, seems the next best bet
TO Felix. He has strong support in

On the Taft Nomination.
I'VE condemn, rs a violation of the
spirit of our institutions. the action of
the present chief executive in using
the patronage of his high office to Sc
cure the nomination of one of his cab
met officers. \ forced succession in
the presidency is scarcely less repug-
nant to public sentiment than is life
tenure In that office. No good intent
on the part of the executive and no
virtue in the one selected can Justify
the establishment of a dynasty. The
right of the people to freely select ther
officials is inalienable and cannot be
delegated.
Income Tax Favored.
We favor an income tax as part OF
our revenue system. and we urge the
submission of constitutional amend
ment specifically authorizing congress
to levy and collect a tax upon individu-
al and corporate incomes to the end
that wealth may bear its proportionate
share of the burdens of the federal
government.
I'VE favor the election of United
States senators by direct vote of the
people. and regard this reform as the
gateway to other national reforms.
Generous Pension Policy.

forced, to the end that merit and abli-
ty shall be the standard of promotion

The Tariff Question.

The tariff plank reads as follows:
1--WE welcome the belated promise of
tariff reform now offered by the Re
publican party as a tardy recognition
of the righteousness of the Democratic
position on this question, but the peo
pie can not safely intrust the eXecu-
tion of this important work to a party
which is so obligated to the highly pro-
tective interests that it postpones re-
lief until after the election. And we
call attention to the significant fact
that the promise now made is wholly
vitiated by the use of the qualifying
words under which the present tariff
iniuuties have been fostered and de-
velOped.
1--WE favor an immediate revision of
the tariff by the reduction of import
duties. Articles entering into competi-
ton with articles controlled by trusts
should be placed upon the free list;
material reductions should be made in
the tariff upon the necessities of life,
especially on articles competing with
such American manufactures as are
sold abroad cheaper than at home, and
graduated reductions should be made
in such other schedules as may be
necessary to restore the tariff to a rev
enue basis.
Every consideration Of public poll
cy suggests the conservation Of our
woodlands and the removal of those
import duties which put a premium
upon the destruction of our forests.
Existing duties have given to paper
manufacturers a shelter behind which
they have organized combinations to
raise the price Of pulp and of paper
and to impose a tax upon knowledge.
"The revenues derived from import
duties on pulp and printing paper are
so small and the benefits to be OBJ
tanned form the abolition of these du-
ties are SO considerable that we in
dorse the attitude of the Democratic
representatives in congress who unani-
mousIy favored the placing of pulp 1
printing paper, lumber, logs, wood and
timbers on the free list"
determination of Trusts.
determination of the trusts is prom
ised in these words:
determination of the trusts is the
determination of the Democratic par
ty. At the same time the Democratic
party recognizes the Importance of cor
poratons in the industrial life of the
nation. but insists upon their proper
and adequate regulation.
ITO this end the Democratic party
pledges itself to enact a law prevent
ing the duplication Of directors among
competing corporations. the adoption
of a license system which will not in
terfere with state rights. and which
will protect the public from watered
stock and prohibit the control by any
corporation Of more than 30 per cent
of the total of any product consumed
in the United States"
Control of Currency.
The Republicau party is denounced
for its use of treasury funds as an
emergency measure to compel congress
to pass an emergency currency bill,
which has failed to give protection TO
te 100000 depOsitCrs of the country.
