 Under Republican rule the relations between capital and labor have be- come more and more strained and yet the Republican leaders resist each att tempt 10 bring employers and employees Into more harmonious relations.
 The Philippine question presents ara- other instance of gross mismanage- ment. Instead of applying American ideas to the Philippine question. the Republican leaders initiated the empires of the old world and entered on Colo nial policy which has Involved us in enormous expense. brought us weak ness instead of strength and humilia- tfon instead Of glory.
 The present financial stringency Is another illustration Of Republican in competency In the full possession of power it has allowed the country to be run by Wall Street flnanciers and in the crisis Is inapotenf to do more than furnish money out of the public treas ury to support the market.
