1t has been the plan of the

THE SOCIALISTIC VIRUS.


Paul Morton, the railroad
man who hourished as d rebate
tiend, but who President Roose-
welt absolved and took to his
bosom as one of his cabinet ad-
visers, thinks the government
must ultimately" guarantee
the bonds issued by railroads.
Mr. Morton now being head of
a great insurance company,
perhaps has lost his railroad
cunning, but it seems rather
strange to find him and Mr..
Bryan approaching the same
end by different pathways. If
the government "ultimately"
should guarantee the bonds of
the railroads, it would "ulti-
mately" be forced to own some
railroads, which might default
on the payment of interest and
principal of such securities.
The socialistic virus is certain
ly working, and there is evil
dence that both Roosevelt aud
Bryan, with Morton as the
hyPhen joining them together,
are inoculated with it and it is
to be feared are spreading the
pestilence.

THREE GREAT SPEECHES.

On the 10Th inst, Senator
Tillman made ferocious at
tack on President Roosevelt
and his methods. AS an ora
torical effort Tillman's speech
will rank with Cicero's oration
against Catiline, and the Philip
pines of Demosthenes. This
speech and those of Senator
Bailey on the Aldrich bill, and
Representative Frank Clark on
the cotton tax of 1862-68, will
probably be more widely circu-
lated as campaign documents
than any other. democratic
speeches delivered during the
present session of congress.
Every democrat ought to read
those three speeches.

PLAYING HORSE.

Though the republican lead.
ers are anxious to appear ready
aud will to pass reform legisla
ton, they, in fact, have de-
termined to throw every OBJ
stacle IN the way of bills that
would intensity new issues in
the campaign. What they de-
sire is to pass the appropria-
ton bills, with a chow of
economy and adjourn. The ex-
posure of alleged corruption in
Indian affairs, which threatens
to implicate the chairman of
the republican state committee
of North Carolina and other
Taft boomers, and perhaps in
volve Secretary Garfield, is
alarming the republican mana
gers. The Submarine boat
scandal has reached the stage
where a committee has been
appointed by Speaker Cannon
to investigate, but the general
opinion is that the committee
is 90 constituted that a white
washing report will follow. It
will be remembered there was
a Holland Submarine BIO a t
scandal in 1908, which resulted
in a whitewash. although the
regulations of some leading re-
pubhcans were 90 smirched
that it resulted in their politi-
cal undoing. The Government
Printing Office scandal is rest.
ing until the court trial takes
place, when interesting expos
ures may result. Then there
is a fresh Naval scandal which
has resulted from the criticism
of defects in the construction
department of the navy to
throw all the obstacles possible
in the way of witnesses who
have testified to conditions

We must have prosperity if
it has to be artificially manu-
factured, 80 the Travellers and
Merchants Association Of Balti-
more held "Prosperity Con-
vention" in that city last week.
The purpose was to restore
confidence. a very commend
able project, but it is difficult
to believe that business will
revive much until the causes
of the pa nj are removed,
namely the reform of the tariff
that protects the trusts and re-
form of the government finan-
cial system that protects the
banks at the expense of the
people. But with a standpat
republican congress intent only
upon saving their political
scalps the business of the
country can expect nothing
from that quarter that will re-
store confidence.

Is protection by tariff necess-

is; the Democrats say it is not.
How do you stand on that
question.

which appear to impair the of
ticiency and security of our
warship. But the chief scandal,
one involving President Roose.
velt. is about the election of de-
legates to the republican ma
tional convention. 1t is charg-
ed that federal office holders,
even such small specks as
Postmaster Myhra and Jim
Shea, are obnoxiously active,
and that the pins have been
set up by Assistant Postmaster
General Hitchcock who has
since been allowed to resign,
with the approval of the Presi-
dent. to continue the work of
packing the republican conven-
tions with federal officeholders.
President Roosevelt has thrown
Civil Service Reform to the
winds in his great desire to
control the republican national
convention. Former republi-
can presidents have done the
same, but the result has been
to disorganize theiy own party
and help the opposition.

power arises which cares more for the
children than it does for politics or
parties-more for human life than it
does for gold That power is Amer-

the General Federation of Women's
Clubs can WELD it if you will.
Let the women of America deter
mine that American child slavery shall
cease and it will cease. Take your
stand against any candidate of any
party who pretends that the nation
cannot end this infamy; take your
stand for any candidate of any party
who is willing to enact the law and
let the supreme court pass on its con-

children are more important than
parties. The success of this great hu
man reform is more vital than the
