Hitchcock said:

Do the People Rule +?

In an address before the Bankers
Convention at Denver, Woodroe Will
son. president of Princeton, used this
expression 1.-The most striking fact
about the actual organization of
modern society is that the most con-
spicuous. the most rapidly welded. and
the most formidable power is not the
power of government, but the power
of capital. Men of our day in England
and America have almost forgotten
that it is to fear government, but have
found out what it is to fear the power
of capital. to watch itEwith Jealousy
and suspicion, and trace toit the source
of every open or hidden wrong"
The reason capital is more for
midable power than government" is
because capital organized into trusts
controls Congress through Cannon in
the House and through Aldrlch in the
Senate by reason of their big contri-
buttons to the Republican campaign
fund and control of that party. With
Bryan in the White House, capital will
h I've every protection but then Presi-
dent Wilson will not be forced to say
that capital is a more formidable
power than government. The trusts
must abdicate.

Looking Two Ways.

What is TAFT anyway! is ne In favor
of the 'reactionary" policies, the
Roosevelt policies" is he safe and
sane" like Joe Cannon and AIdrich, or
is he radical like La Toilette and Bris-
TOW of Kansas? Or is he all three
everything by turns and nothing
long,"
During all the Roosevelt administra-
ton the Baltimore Sun, published by
the millionaire Abel family, has OPP
posed the Roosevelt policies. Now it
declares for Taft on the ground that
Taft would repudiate the policies of
Roosevelt. In its issue on page one of
the issue of the Baltimore Sun of Sep
TENDER %. that paper in special from
Fargo. North Dakota. says "Mr. Taft
asserts himself the true heir and politi-
cal son of Mr.. Roosevelt" That was
the telegram from North Dakota.
On the same day the Sun had an edi-
torial one column long trying to show
that Bryan ought to be defeated be-
cause he would carry out the policies
like those Roosevelt has stood for,
while Taft would reverse the Roose-
welt policies. From that editorial this
extract is taken.
"Mr. Taft's public record and his
habiC of mind justify the belief that
he would take no official action until
by research and contemplation he had
formed an intelligent conception of the
probable consequences of his action.
If he were in the White House we
should not have government by impulse
or intuition or caprice, but government
/ by reason. The nation needs now
Chief Magistrate having characters
ties which Mr.. Roosevelt has never
pretended to possess, and which Mr..
Bryan has given no evidence of pos
sessing in his public career.
sit is, indeed. net difficult to indie ate
points of striking resemblance between
Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Bryan-to show
certain parallelism between Mr..
Roosevelt and the Nebraska states
man. The points of difference between
the President and Mr.. Bryan. on the
one hand, and Mr.. Taft in the other,
are distinct and pronounced. And be-
cause Mr.. Taft is in many respects the
antithesis of the President his election
to the Chief Magistracy is the logical
remedy for the conditions resulting in
part from Mr.. Ro-sevelt's methods in
office. The country has every reason
to assume that a President with the
characteristics which MIR. Roosevelt at
tributes to Mr.. Taft would not intro
duce into his administration methods
which are wholly Incompatible with the
character and record of Mr.. Taft. The
country has sound reason for assuming
that since Mr.. Bryan is temperamently
much like Mr.. Roosevelt. a Bryan ad-
ministration would probably result in
continuance of methods which, in the
Roosevelt administration, created anxi-
ETY. and apprehension in business cir
Giles and among the wage-earners.
In Baltimore. Taft is held up as the
'antithesis of Roosevelt" who would
suit the plutocrats. In the West, Taft
is help up as man of reform, respon-
sible for all the Roosevelt policies that
are progressive. Is he facing two
ways?
