CIVIC IMPROVEMENT PLAN.

have lived under sunny skies of their
native land, accustomed to seeing beau
tiful gardens, gay with brilliant flow
ers, are now living under the most con-
gested conditions. The heat OF sum-
mer forces them from their warm
houses into contracted yards or out on
parched pavements.

Prostituting Government.

Considering the methods employed
by President Roosevelt to secure
the nomination of his candidate for
the succession, it was not to be ex,
|epected that he would scruple to re-
sort to any means calculated to aid
in making his election sure, says the
Norfolk Virginian-Pilot.
That the power of Federal patro-
mage wa4 used and abused TO an ex,
tent never before approximated in
the history Of the government, to
effect the naming of Taft by the
Chicago convention, is too notorious
a fact to admit of discussion. That
convention was packed with office
holders holding their appointments
from Roosevelt and doing his bid.
ding to the slightest detail.
With this contingency Of pie eaters
and government pap-sucker., sub
servient to his every wish and re-
sponsive to his slightest nod. the
Master and Dictator in the White
House was able to whip the recalci-
trants and would-be insurgents into
line and so force the assemblage to
do his will both in the naming of
the candidate and the promulgation
of the platform.
And just as Federal patronage
was abused to accomplish that re-
suit, so now executive authority is
to be stretched and the public SER
vice prostituted to Influence the
election in November. Every pow
er of the administration is to be
brought to bear to concilate the int
erests which the policies may have
given cause for offense. every agen-
cy of the government is to be direct
ed to restoring industrial and busi-
ress activity, for time at least,
and the compact which Mark Hanna
made with the System in 1896 and
1900 is again to be renewed. OnlT
few weeks ago it was announced
that there would be no further pros
ecutions Of the Trusts for several
months.
The reason assigned was that the
department of justice was crowded
The times and democrat. [volume] (Orangeburg, S.C.) 1881-current, 1908-07-31

with other business demanding at
tention, that Trust cases. had been
carried as far as they could without
further preparation. and that
months would be required to make
such preparation. This may deceive
the credulous and unsuspecting who
still believe in the trust busting"
pretensious of the Roosevelt admin
istration, but nobody else. Those
possessing the average amount OF
intelligence and caring to use it
know that the real object is to con.
ciliate the grinding lnonopolies"
and the predatory combinations"
in order that their contributions to
the campaign fund may be forth
coming as usual and with the same
liberality,
And now the order he's gone forth
to all the government departments
to spend all the money they can and
as quickly as they can. The prac-
tics and precedent Of years is to
be broken, and every thing that the
government will need for the cur
rent twelve months is to be pur-
chased before the election. Money
must be poured out to the extent OF
three-quarters Of a billion dollars.
That there is no public necessity for
| it and that it may empty the treas
ury of the last dollar makes no diff
ference. Temporarily, at least
business must boom. Labor must
be employed and wages must be
kept up. Prosperity must be slmu-
lated, though it may not exist. Pol
itical expediency and party exlgency
demand it. That is sufficient.
1t would never do for the Novem-
ber election to find business stag
nant, labor unemployed, factories
and mills idle, and prosperity at q
standstill, 1t might result IN the
overthrow of republican supremacy,
and that must be preserved at all
cost and all hazards. The presump
ton is that government is admins
tered, primarily, in the interest OF
the country an6 not of a political
party. From it's very inception the
republican party, has held and fol
lowed the contrary view. with
them the interests of the party have
always been first, those Of the coun'
try receiving only incidental consld-
eracion. But it has remained fol
the Roosevelt administration to Sol'
low that policy with a consistency
perfect and f4wless.

CLEAN KANSAS TOWN.

Drummer Tells How Newton Has Do
veloged Civic Pride.
"In my opinion, Newton is the clean
est and one of the best regulated towns
tn Kansas" said Gordon Whyte, a
travelling salesman, at the Sexton ho-
tel, in Kansas City, the other day. "Yes,
+ live. there, but haven't always" he
continued. "Newton Is thriving, hus-
tling town Of nearly 5000 Inhabitants.
Its people are progressive. They be-
lieve in clean streets, and there seems
to be a sort Of personal pride about
keeping things clean.
Every seldom do you see any one
throw trash or waste paper in the
streets Of Newton. Nothing against 1t
except it just seems to be a sort OF
moral code or unwritten agreement the
people have fallen into. Towns have
their habits even as individuals"

''WHEN a newspaper daily accepts
and magnifes news reports sent by
agencies hostile to Bryan, and knifes
the Nebraskan at every opportuni-
ty, then declares it wishes him
elected, the readers of such a paper
are confronted with the problem Of
discriminating whether it is a trait
or lacking the courage to be bold, or
a witless nonenity outcast from the
house of reason" says The State.
We would say it was a Taft paper
but too cowardly to come out and
say so.

Taft submitted his speech of accep-
tance to MIR. Roosevelt for revision
he not only made the most candid
admission ofShis subserviency but he
committed a blunder that man of
Taft's perception should never be

knows that Roosevelt is his political

Democratic ssgacity.

The two gSeatt conventions have
been held, the candidates, between
whom the struggle for the Presiden-
cy will lie have been chosen and the
issue is joined. The Charleston Post
says whatever one may think OF
Bryan or Taft it is impossible for
the man who considers the matter
dispassionately not to realize that
the Democratic party is playing the
game with considerable more skill
and sagacity than its rivals, the lead
ers Of the Republican succession.
The platform trainers are said to
have been influenced greatly by
Parker's and Cohalan's suggestions,
New York conservative Democrats,
yet at the meeting Of the Central
Federated Labor Union last Sunday
out Of eighty-tWo delegates present,
sixteen were non-committal, eleven
for Debs, one for Hearst, one for
Taft, and fifty-three for Bryan.
Samuel Gompers a lifelong Repub-
lican the President, says'he will have
to support Bryan, on account Of the
Democratic platform, and that he
will do everything he honorably can
TO elect the Democratic ticket. The
Philadelphia Public Ledger (anti-
Bryan) is authority for the opinion
that there are about 100000
members of organized labor in the
country whose organizations are in
some manner affiliated with the
American Federation of Labor"
Yet the Democrats must have exib-
tied extraordinary sagacity in the
framing Of this plank: for the COM
ments of so eminently representa-
tive journal as the Springfield Re-
publican are:
cit is evident on the other hand,
that the radical injunction plank
adopted at Denver has so far caused
no fright and has not even reused q
serious protest in the press of the
country, and the contrast in this re-
spect with the week following the
Democratic convention Of 1896 is eX-
traordinary.'
This paper dicusses and quotes the
Boston transcripts declaration
that: 'No one can travel in the
West without becoming convinced
that an overwhelming proportion Of
it's voters want some some real
changes in the power of the courts
in this respect. - Roose-
velt's perceptions of what is going
on in the popular mind were never
more surely accurate" and the
same paper is authority for the
statement that so conservative a
paper as the independent Indianap-
oils News has discussed the Denver
plank with appearent readiness to a.
cept it. particularly the part indors-
ing the contempt bill passed by a
Republican United States Senate
early in 1885,"
"To have produced such results is
a triumph of sagacity. But that is
not all. In New York the Tammany
leader, Murphy, asserts the opinion
that the plankssuggesting guarant6
of deposits will surely bring a big
vote to the Democrats. We confess
ourselves, that New York was the
last quarter we would have looked
for endorsement of this, and if it
finds favor there it will find much
more elsewhere. With these COM
ments it is idle to deny that great
saeacitv has been shown in the
