It's Up to the President.

Washington dispatches of the Goth
instant say that Representative John
Sharp Williams of Mississippi, as leader
OF the minority in the house. has
issued to the press written statement
defining precisely the attitude of the
democratic party in the house toward
legislation urged by President Roose-
welt In his messages to congress at the
present session. The statement des-
cribes what republican legislation the
democrats will support, what thew
will oppose and what concessions they
demand on the part of the majority as
the price of refraining from an organ
lied filibuster throughout the remain
der of the session. Mr. Williams saws
Some things in the presidents re-
cent message are SO Immediately inn
portant to the interests of the entire
country as TO pass the bounds of parti-
sanship and TO make it excusable, il not
necessary, for me to say something con-
corning them with the view of assuring
the president himself and reasonably
inclined republican members of the
house and the conntry of the support
and endorsement or the opposition. of
the democratic minority. Insofar as
the things urged by the president are
good things | would like the country to
know that all he has to do is to deliver
20 or % republican house votes in favor
OF them. These, conjoined with the
solid democratic votes -ill put them
through"
Mr.. Williams notes The following
measures as ones which will Command

JOHN BARNES is forty-eight years of
age and in the prime of life. He is fif-
teen years younger than his youngest
opponent. Mr.. Bashford is now past
sixty-three years of age and Mr.. Ruger
is still older. The wisdom of electing a
comparatively young man for the bench
Is shown in the case of Judge Winslow,
who is now fifty-six years of age and
has served seventeen years Unless
impaired by age the usefulness of a
Justice of the Supreme Court increases
with the length of service Mr.. Barnes,
if elected, could reasonably be expected
to give to the state at least score of
years of unimpaired service. He is of
strong and vigorous constitution, ener-
getic and industrious. These are mat
ters worthy of careful consideration in
the choice of a Judge.

How About Thfs2

There should be an effort made by
every voter to go TO the polls on cleo
ton day to participate in this contest
for delegates for the republican national
convention and vote for those who will
let the United States know that Wis
consin is solidly behind the senior
senator from this state.-Ashland News.
The above is Bert Williams o.

also like to see republicans, as well as

Another State Convention.
(weysuwega Chronicle.)

N'S@NN"SSo NhtOhANAS-J
We believe that it is not too early to
begin the agitation for another demo
cratic state convention to be held this
summer, and we believe also, that the
proposition will meet with favor from
the great majority of the voters of the
party, from the democratic press, and
from the state central committee.
1t would be principally platform
convention the same as the one that
was held for a like purpose In 1906, but
in addition to this it should suggest
candidates for the state offices, and the
caueuses from the several congressional
and senatorial districts should select
candidates for Congress and for the
State Senate.
In 1906 there was a real contest at the
primary for the nomination of governor
but aside from that oae place on the
ticket Chairman Manson had to draft
candidates into service to make up the
balance of the ticket. Without intend
ing any criticism on his work, we may
all agree that it is more democratic that
8 representative gathering of members
of the party should draft candidates
than that the chairman should do so.
Not only did the chairman have TO fill
places on the state ticket, but likewise
the congressional candidates for nomi-
nation at the primary were appointed"
by him and in this district, at least,
there was no candidate. and if few
voters around Chiffon had not written
in the name of j. Z. McMullen, the
democratic nomination would have
gone 10 the republican nominee, j. H.
Davidson, whose name was written in
by many who did not understand. Like
wise in this senatorial district, where
there was no candidate, E. e. Browne

Only Twelve Years.

Speaking of high and low tariffs we
have before us as we write 260- page
book issued by the American Protective
Tariff League. No 1876 West Twenty
third street, New York 1t is entitled
The Defender and under that title it
gives the following reason for its exist
ence; Devoted to the protection Of
American labor and industries" The
volume is No. 9 aud bears date August,
1896, almost i2 years ago. The entire
volume, as the cover page witnesses,
relates to '.Tarifr Facts for Speakers
and Students" Hundreds of thousands
of copies of it were sent broadcast to
voters in the United States, the expense
being borne by the republican national
committee, which had at its disposal an
enormous sum of money collected from
those great Industries which have been
the especial pets of the government be-
cause of their liberal contributions
We do not know whether The
Defender still is being published If
it is the PmOT no longer is on its ex-
change list. We are convinced, how
ever, that it has ceased to be, because
it had no small part in rendering
Dingleyism possible and since Dingley-
ism was written in every tariff schedule
ever known to exist there no longer
was any need to spend good money in
publishing "The Defender" The tariff
hogs having got what they wanted, it
was not necessary to put out any more
paper.
The volume of 'The Defender which
we have before us is peculiarly interest
ing at this time because of its 260-page
labor to show what a terrible blight
free trade" is and what an unmixed
blessing a country is assured under the
policy of protection" On page IL it
tells as: 1.-The American lives in quite
a superior style. He at least gets
enough to eat, has meat and vegetables
for his meals and has decent clothes to
wear. He lives IN house that isn't
tumbling down and where the drains
don't give him and his family typhoid |
fever every year.

laws which they feel are for their pro-
lection and relief-and have already
discovered that the contest for dele

contest between individuals, but

The sense of the meeting was that the
Taft movement in Wisconsin, engi-
neered by K. l.. Phillips, of Milwaukee,
is not Taft movement at all but
direct assault upon Roosevelt and La
Toilette and the measures advocated by
them. The evident intention, as those
attending this meeting looked at it,
being to divide the columns of Taft and
Roosevelt and array them against one
another, with the hope that things
might so shape themselves as to make
possible the nomination of someone
having the endorsement of the "sys-
tenn" and so far as Wisconsin is con
cerned, is not an honest and above
board movement.

Taking all this into consideration.
there can be no good reason advanced
why the party should not hold a plat
form convention in July at which con-
vention and the accompanying eau
cuses, the entire state, congressional

up, and those present pledged to do the
work of circulating the necessary NOM
ination papers to comply with the pri-
mary law.
In order to disarm any possible oppo-
sltion from those few misguided demo-
Gratis who are so deep in love " it'll the

that In any case where more than one
person desires nomination and will

vention will keep hands off,"

EVEN President Roosevelt now sees
the necessity of tariff revision. But he
places the time for making the revision
until after the presidential election. 1t
is the same old story over again. The
republican party is after votes, now,

next election. After that, it is forgotten
