TROUBLE IN THE DEMOCRATIC
CAMP

A Des Moines dispatch says that
critical examination of the Democratic
expense account filed with the secre-
tary of state shows items which are
attracting deep interest among Repub-
Leans. Several scattered items are
charged to "The Jerry Sullivan Cir
cular." The dispatch adds:
The conviction is thus strengthen
ed among local politicians that Mr..
Sullivan, the distinguished Democratic
leader, was the author of the famous
Bryan ummins circular, which was
sent out just before the election. Mr..
Sullivan was accused of the author,
ship of the circular at the time of its
appearance, but would neither affirm
nor deny.
Friends of Hon. Claude R. Porter
are storming over the disclosure OF
the record They insist he was be
trayed in the house of his alleged
friends. They also predict that 3
rupture will be created between the
Sullivan and Porter forces which viii

Mr.. Taft says that his attitude to-
ward labor was represented during the
campaign and that the opposition of
Gompers and other labor leaders
would not turn him aside from his
purpose of continuing the course of
Roosevelt in doing everything possible
to put labor on an equality with cap
ital and ito give labor an equality OF
opportunity in the negotiations be-
tween them" Turning to the tariff, he
outlines the plan of revision which he
will favor, namely, making the differ
ence between the cost of production
here and abroad the main criterion
an extra session to be called for that
purpose. He hopes and believes that
the next congress will pass postal
savings bank law. He is very glad he
visited the south and hopes for g
break there at the next election.

1AET,s POLICIES.

In copyright interview with Harry
l.. Dunlap for the New York World
last Sunday William H. Taft outlined
some of the policies of his coming adj
ministration as President of the Unit
ed states. Primarily he reiterated
that the election result meant popular
approval of the Roosevelt administra-
ton. Roosevelt had been the expon-
ent of that "quickening of the con-
science" or moral awakening which
had come among the people after the
uncovering of corporate lawlessness
during the past twelve years. Con
gress had responded to Roosevelts
demand with needed legislation SO that
steps had been taken to stamp out
these abuses, and "a change had come
over our great business corporations
and railways that is hard to over
state" More is to be done, continues
Mr.. Taft, chiefly Sin the development
Of machinery for the efficient enforce
ment of statutes now on the statute
hooks" Nevertheless, Taft does no
hesitate to assert that the trusts arr
a considerable part of the force tina
makes for prosperity when law abiding
and he would not destroy corpora
ton because of its evils. He again

COMIC SUPPLEMENT- PASSING.

The decision of the Boston Herald to
abandon the comic supplement hither.
to published with its Sunday issue
has renewed the discussion of this
journalistic policy. That paper ex-
planned editorially that "a great news
paper no longer needs clown" and
asserts besides that comic supple
ments have ceased to be comic. 1t
adds: They have become as vulgar
in design as they are tawdry in color
There is no longer any semblance OF
art il them, and if there are any ideas
they are low and descending lower
According to review of this sub
ject in the Literary Digest, this ex
! ample is not likely to be followed by
New York papers. Albert Paysor
Terhune, art editor of the World
holds that the comics are worth re
tanning and says that the pictures are
comparable in interest to the curious
and quaint hieroglyphics on ancien
pyramids and obelisks. Not that the
/ latter were humorous, but that the!
We're primitive. Inc comics reSponi
! to the primitive in children. He thinks
that the crudities and gaudiness sui
many people who could not appreciate
! fine art. He argues that most of thu
! characters inculcate moral lessons ant
I that mother-in-law jokes have reform
ed mothers-in-law. Rudolph Block, ar
editor of the Hearst papers, believes
that the comics are permanent fea
ture of journalism. He admits tina
their quality varies, but holds that thu
good ones grow while the poor one:
die. He thinks the error of those whit
have failed is in assuming that thu
taste of the public is low and vulgar
Exaggeration he regards as a legiti
mate function of humor.

Dun's Review, which states facts
exactly as they are, without color or
enthusiasm, has this to say of the
business revival following the election
of Taft:
Expectations are being fully real
lied in the increased demand for
manufactured products that each day
reduces the percentage of idle ma
chinery and the number of unemploy-
ed. The depleted condition of stocks
is disclosed as business expands, and
throughout all industrial channels
there is sudden pressure to meet re-
quirements that assures activity for
some time at least Confidence seems
to be almost wholly restored, although
there Is a gratifying caution in com
mercial operations that preciudes any
danger of excess

Congressional Committeeman
Stipes, who had charge of the Hep
burn campaign in the Eighth district.
has announced that the election re
suits there will probably be taken to
Washington for determination in a
congressional contest. Investigations
are now being made to ascertain the
exact conditions. 1t has already been
developed that in five counties from
which reports have been received over
1000 votes were thrown out because of
technical construction of the election
law. Most. of these are bal
lets which were marked with
a cross at the top of the Republican
column. Congressman Hepburn is rep

At a chamber of commerce banquet
at Tacoma, James J. Hill stated his EN-
phatic opinion that, after the st. Paul
railroads coast extension is com.
pleted. no other transcontinental road
will be built for many years. He said
that the entire country north OF the
Platte river is now we'll occupied by
railroads and that any new ones could
not earn enough to justify their con-
struction. High land prices and enor-
nous cost Of terminals, together with
present low railroad rates, are fac
tors that new lines can not harmonic
into profitable business. Mr.. Hill
said adequate terminals in New York
and Chicago would bankrupt any new

themselves with building branch lines

LITTLE INTEREST IN TARIFF RE.
VISION,

Although the tariff hearings of the
ways and means committee have been
going for three days, no serious re-
quest for change in any schedule has
yet been made. 1t may be that the
the people, who have been advocating
tariff reduction, are waiting for more
important schedules, but more rea-
sonable conclusion Is that there isn't
so deep-seated a demand for specific
changes as many persons have been
led to expect 1t is one thing to
argue during a campaign for tariff
reduction on the ground that it is re-
duction of taxation, but quite another
to point out, after the campaign is
over. what schedules to cut and how
much to cut them. Noting these facts,
the La Crosse Leader-Press, an indie
pendent newspaper, is moved to say:
There can be no doubt that the pre-
ponderance of public opinion is that
the rates fixed in the Dfngley law can
be lowered to some extent, but how
determined and we'll informed this
feeling Is is not apparent. 1t will be
! harmful to the prospects of getting a
good bill If public interest in it does
not increase. The manufacturers af-
lfected are showing keen interest, as
! they should, but the Importance of the
! consumers also being awake to what
lis going on and taking the opportun-
ity to present their views to the COM
mittee should be realized. Now is the
time the new tariff law which will in
1 the ordinary course of events remain
in effect ten years or more, is being
made. 1t will avail nothing to ignore
1t when it is being considered anc
complain about it afterward.
