In TIE Republican national
platform is a collection of antithe-
ticsl traits asserted to reveal the
fundamental differences between
the Democratic and Republican
parties. 1t is a mass OF unblush-
ing lies, of brazsn falsehoods. But
there are differences, and such in
truth as are making Republicans
daily confess in public prints and
private conversation that a return
of Democratic control, like that of
Grover Cisysland's, would be the
richest boon the people could
enjoy,
"One finds fault; the other
finds work." says the sophmoric
of phrases. Has the
Republican party been finding
work sincs last October for the
millions idle through its sxseusivs

means low wages, the other conf
dence and thrift" But disap-
pearance of confidence is the
asserted reason for a panic that is
the fourth in Republican rarty
annals. "Thrift," when extra
vagance was the keynote of Con-
gress and President, and deficit
the swelling result. t'Vacillation
opposed to firmness. Wabbling
is the entire impression of Roose-
veltism, from bluster to meek
surrender. No act of the bonn
bastic performer bears the faintest
resem blance to the calm stopping
by Cleveland of England's cross
ing the Venezuelan boundry.
"Promises and performance"
Who relies upon the pledge to
revise the tariff, and does not
know that disbelief in it was the
sole pretext by which its insertion
was procuredp
Democrats tend toward social
ism and government ownersblp,
do they? That is a miserable lie,
whoever may be it's author. The
realization of the Roosevelt
policies touching corporation
supervisor is the actual prelude
to such ownership. Veneration
of the courts, allegiance to the
constitution, equality of rights.
economy in public expenditure,
denial Of special privileges-these
are the genuine bastic differences
that so impress thousands of dis
gusted and burdened Republicans
that they propose to aid next No
vember in restoring De mocratic
administration.

LODGE SAID: "Although the
president retires, he leaves his pol
icies behind him." Which poll
cies? The ones that were never men

but which he stole from the Demo.
cratic platforms of several conven-
tions, or are his policies that Wis
ionary hash, that marvellous con
glomeration of vagaries only to be
exhumed from his messages, and
not discoverable in any act of Con-
gress em bodying them into statute
ry law? If they be the stolen pol
icies he has, indeed, left them be-
hind him. He has advertised loud

to appease his hunger and the
hunger OF his family. In 1t he Is
told that panics may come under
any political party, but the Re
publican party is the only one that
knows how to handle these
economic upheavals. The Demo-
Gratis permitted their panic, which
by the way was of Republican
origin, to drag along unchecked
for period of years, while the
Republican panic was brought
under subjection within a few
months. Now every one has
plenty of work, plenty to eat,
plenty to wear--on paper. How
different is the truth! Work is
difficult to get, thousands of men
are OUT of employment, factories
closed or running short time, rail-
road cars standing idle on eide
tracks, the dinner pail empty. The
platform is at least candid in
admitting that panics are possible
under Republican administrations.
Such admission would have been
impossible even one short year ago.
In the meantime the laboring man
is hunting for some sucker to
whom he can swap his interest in
the platform for the aforesaid
roast or juicy steak,

The LABOR unions of the
country were handed q lemon of
the largest and juicieet variety by
the Republican national conven
tion in the antl-injunction plank
embodied in the platform. John
Mitchell, Gompers and othsr
noted labor leaders were in Chi
cago urging the adoption of a
plank satifactory to their organi-
cations and the representatives, of
the corporations were also on hand
fighting labor. In such contest
before Republican convention it
would require only one guess to
name the winner. The corpora
tions contribute campaign funds;
the laboring man does not.
