The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1908-07-03

The st. Johns News apparently
knows as little about political affairs in
Oregon as it does about the situation in
the eighth congressional district. Last
week itreferred to Senator. elect Cake"
of that state and attempted some pun
Herewith. The public will recall that
Mr.. Cake was about two thousand votes
behind Gov. Chamberlain in the popu-
lar vote for senator and that it is ex-
pected the legislature will formally
chose the latter gentleman when it
meets. Then again, it would have us
believe that Speaker Cannon made the
statement that he would retire to pri-
yate life if the convention declared for
tariff revision. AS the plank adopted
along this line is very similar to the
resolution adopted in the Speakers con-
gressional district some weeks ago when
delegates were elected to the national
convention, and it was then stated that
the resolution was drafted by the speak
Or, it will be seen how far off the News
is. What the speaker did say was that
if a certain radical antiinjunction
plank was adopted he would retire
but it was not.

How Workers Are Aided.

The Department of Commerce and
Labor is doing a service for the cause
Of labor which was not contemplated
at the time the department was es-
tablished, although that is only five
years ago. Secretary Straus has
started out to find employment for
many of the idle workers, and at the
same time to aid the employers who
want workers and who do not know
where to look for them He has just
mailed over 100000 double postal
cards to rural employers all over the
country. asking how many persons
they want, and what sort of work
they have to do. The answers which
he will receive will be communicated
to the great business centers of the
country, where the idle workers re-
side. and addresses will be furnished
which will doubtless enable many of
the present idle persons to get work.
This is large task, but the de-
partment's chief has organized the
machinery to perform it. His object
is to shift the present mass of idle
persons to the places which are wait
ing for them, and thus will benefit
workers and employer. The immed-
late object of the new departure is to
furnish workers for the harvest fields
At this time almost every year, or a
few weeks later than this, there are
loud appeals from the wheat fields Of
Illinois. Missouri. Kansas and the
other states of the central west for
men to aid in gathering the crops.
The closing of some Of the factories
in the present business setback ought
to make workers for the harvest
fields little more plentiful than in
recent years.
But the difficulty is to bring the
men who want work and the men
who are looking for workers together
This is easy in the large centers,
where in the most active seasons
some idle persons can be found. But
such persons are seldom met with in
the rural regions. When the farmer
needs extra ''help'' one way in which
he expects to get it Is by advertising
in the newspapers of the big towns
nearest to him. But the Department
of Commerce has set out to sim
plify his task. and that of the worker
who seeks employment 1t is to be
hoped that it will succeed. The coun-
try will watch the experiment with
much interest. Secretary Straus'
work is "paternalism, but it is work
which the country will applaud

strong PROTECTION for the domes-
tic interests. 1t goes further than to
"avoid injury" insisting on "ade-
uate protection" In other words it
commits the Republican party to- a
course of aggressive and profitable
legislation instead of an indefinite,
uncertain and negative policy.
The organ says that the "plank"
was written before Mr.. Fordney ever
got to Chicago, or ever met the COM
mittee and that it was passed as orig
inally prepared, each statement being
false, as its own columns probably
show. Isn't it time for the even
ing organ to wake up and be-
come informed on the facts?-Sag-

Stand-Patters Can Afford TO Smile

1t was somewhat of stand-pat af-
fair, after all. Not only did the stand
| patters prevent the nomination for
Vice-President of notorious western
tariff ripper and an eastern shouter
| for "free raw materials" but they Sc
cured, instead, the nomination of q
sound and reliable Protectionist.
Moreover, while deprecating the de-
claration in favor of tariff revision,
they can point with satisfaction to the
fact that the platform adopted is in
its essential details more radically
and completely Protectionist than
any that has ever before been adopt
ed by a Republican national conven-
ton. This is true, not only as to the
strong pronouncement for Protective
duties that shall cover the difference
in production, cost at home and
abroad, together with a reasonable
profit" Ca most admirable stipulation,
which reflects high credit upon the
practical common-sense of the plat
form builders), but also as to the
provision that when dual Tariff sys-
tenn shall have become necessary the
minimum rates shall at all times af-
ford adequate Protection to American
labor and industry. Then, too. there
is wisdom and consistent Protection
ism in the hard and fast condition
that tariff concessions TO foreign
countries can be granted only under
limitations fixed by the law" With
the single exception of the(tariff re-
vision pledge. the platform is all that
any stand-patter could ask for

Better Wake Up-Learn the Facts

Beitef wake tp-Leafn the Facts.
Our esteemed evening contempo-
rary last week had a spell of what it
was pleased to term "night-horse, :"
and under the influences, dire and
dreadful, of this heretofore unheard
of Democratic nervous attack tried
to discuss some matters appertaining
to the Republican national conven-
ton. Naturally it attempted to treat
contemptuously all personages prom
inent in and actions taken by the con-
vention. but under the influence of
the aforesaid "night-horse' it's
judgment ran riot with the plain
facts and produced the usual and ex-
pected misstatement.
Several days since the attention Of
the evening organ was called to the
mis-statements and apparently after
correspondence with some of the paid
political editorial bureaus through
out the country, which supply copy to
some papers, defense has been at
tempted. Yesterday these interest
ing statements were made evidently
the "night-horse" still being in
charge of the dream editors desk:
''The plank (referring to the
tariff relations of the United
States and the Philippines) was
written in Columbus, Ohio, APP
proved in Washington, and
printed in full by Associated
: Press papers before Rep. Ford
ney, as a member of the commit
tee on resolutions, ever met with
the committee. There was not
a word of discussion at ANY time
over the sugar plank Of the
platform. 1t was written be-
fore Rep. Fordney ever got to
Chicago and went through as
originally prepared"
No greater mis-sttement of facts
could be printed. In the first place
the sugar" plank reported by the
committee on resolutions and as
passed by the Republican convention
is NOT the plank which the e\ening
organ printed four times in it's edi-
torial yesterday. 1t has got hold of
the tentative uTdlJ, WHICH, WAS CIldHS-
ed in the committee on resolutions
through the influence of Mr.. Fordney
and which was passed by the con-
vention as reported by the commit
tee. Apparently the evening or
gan does not yet know what the So
called sugar" plank is that was
passed by the convention. therefore
it is repeated again in this paper for
it's benefit:
Between the United States
and the Philippines we believe
in free interchange of products
with such limitations as to sugar
and tobacco as will afford ade-
quate protection to domestic
interests
This plank is greatly different in
language and meaning from the pre-
liminary draft reported as the real
thing by the obflscated organ, as fol-
lows:
Between the United States
and the Philippines we believe
in a free interchange of products
with such limitations as to sugar
and tobacco as will avoid injury
to domestic interests.

The Owosso times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1897-1926, 1908-07-03

The ST. Johns News is making a rep
utation for political dishonesty which il
will not be able to outlive for some
time to come-even when apologies are
published. For instance in its last Issue
it stated that Cong Fordney was the
only man outside of Speaker Cannon s
own state to vote for him for president.
Reference to any table giving the vote
will show that the statement is false,
Apology number two is due, Mr. News.
False as is that statement it does not
compare with the next: Not only that,
but at Chicago he (Mr Fordney) voted
against every measure that Roosevelt
and Taft stand for" There is not even
the semblance of truth in the assertion
and the News must have known it when
writing the sentence. 1t is true that
Cong. Fordnry as member of the COM
mittee on resolutions did work against
the adoption of radical anti-injunc-
tion plank and in this he had the back
ing of the entire Michigan delegation,
who requested and instructed Mr.. Ford
ney as a member of the committee to so
vote and to use his influence to that end.
There was no division in the delegation
on that point, each of the twenty eight
members answering Eyes" on roll call
on motion to that effect, in addition
TO which hundreds of Michigan manu-
facturers, business and professional
men requested it by kilograms. The
plank as finally adopted by the COM
mittee was reported to the convention
by unanimous vote Of the committee
and the twenty eight votes of Michigan
we're cast in favor of the adoption of
the report. On the question of the
tariff on sugar and tobacco imported
from the Philippines, Cong. Fordney
offered an amendment to the report of
the subcommittee on resolutions which
was adopted and it was stated by
Chicago papers that this was the only
change made in the report of the sub.
committee. This amendment was ac-
oepted by the friends of Pres. Roosevelt
and Secv. Taft on the committee as be-
ing fair solution of the fight which
has been waged on this question for
several years past and the adoption of
Cong. Fordney's amendment was a not
able victory for that gentlemen and
source of great satisfaction to the beet
sugar interests of the country for which
he has long commended. If the News
insists that Mr.. Fordney opposed the
wishes of Roosevelt and Taft in this
regard, it will'have to include also the
other fifty-two members of the com
mittee who signed the report present ted
TO the convention. But no, the state
ment of the News as to Mr.. Fordney is
y great big error-to put it mildly-and
apology number three is due. In fact,
if the News were to correct all its err.
rors In its editorial of last week much
space would be required.
