MACHINES

The Douglas Dispatch is evidently
getting its eyes open to the fact that
the republican political machine is
not a thing to be proud of in this ter
ritory. We are not surprised at this.
What is known as the organization
in this territory has Undertaken to
control appointments without regard
to whether the appointees would do
for these positions or not, so long as
they were known to be willing to
remain loyal 10 the machine; men
have been appointed who would not
be elected to any Office by the ote )
of the people and appointments have
proposition, but to induce friends and
been made because of the amount OF
money they were willing to hand
ayer to the political bogses. All this
IS bringing on big disgdst IN the re
publican party, as : would In any
party where such methods are pur-
sued
The republican party is becoming
more and more a machine party from
day 10 day and that is why the peo-
pie are growing more and more tired
OF it. The Payne-Aldrich tariff bill
does not represent the desires of one
fourth of the republican party in the
country. yet we see republican
president bolstering it up as the very
best that could be passed because OPP
position to a measure which would
have carried out the pledges of the
republican party. The president
also explains that the corporation
tax was passed because of the desire
to keep the party together All this
shows that from President Taft down
party solidity is paramount among
the leaders OF the republican party.
In Arizona there Is the closest cor
poration in control OF the republican
party ever known in any state OF
territory. The Organization" is ar
rogant and ipsolent in turning away
everyone who applies for public po-
sition who is not able to show re
ceipts for campaign. contributions
and loyalty to Hoval A. Smith and
