Ask Aldrich. Ask SmOot, the Mormon
elder, who became Aldrich's right

Cummins can fight. And did he stop
fighting when the tariff bill was

tor makes it plain that he supports the
president, whom he regards as Il pro-
gressive. and he adds significantly
that he will continue in this policy
until or unless the president proves
that he is not progressive. Still more
significantly Mr.. Cummins intimates
that lie would not himself be ayerse to
becoming the standard bearer in 1912.
This makes the issue explicit. fur
nishes a battlecry and a candidate
around whom TO rally. throws down
the gauntlet defiantly and makes COM

the contest will have to be fought out
to conclusion. There is TO be no
quarter asked or given. In good old
phraseology, it is to be war TO the
knife and knife to the hilt.
1t is about the most definite and
fighting challenge that has been is
sued in American politics in the last
dozen years.
What of the man who makes it? is
his character such as to insure that ne
means what he says and that he has
, the purpose and the ability to make
finish fight? And, if he measures up
to the task he has set himself, what of
the forces behind him? y general
must have an army. Has Cummins
lieutenants who will stay by him? Can

"HE statement of Senator A. B..

vention and will he fought out on the
floor of the national convention ii

American politics.
In my own view, no more important
step nor one fraught with possibilities
of more farreaching consequences has
been made in recent years. OF course
the present purpose of this fight is
to unhorse the stand pat leadership in
congress. and especially in the senate,
and To control the Republican party.
That is the Intention of the inSurgent
leaders. aut it isl one thing To start
political prairie fire and quite an
other thing To control it when It is
once under way. No one can tell just
what proportions the blaze will as
sllme nor where il will end. The en-
tmsiastic reception given To Cummins
when lie returned to Iowa would III
dicate that the people OF that state are
with him. Signs are not wanting that
there is Il deep undercurrent of senti-
ment in that direction throughout the
land. being most intense perhaps in the
states of the central west.

And this is the tman that has now
thrown down, his glove in front of the
tariff barons and trusts of America.

shown equal nugnacity and determina-
ton; Dolliyer and Beveridge, the ora
tors; Bristow, the man who exposed

shows its wise political generalship,
catches the enemy at his weakest
point and raises an issue against which
IT will be impossible to make n sue
cessful fight. In theory all men agree
that party promises should be kept.
Amy other policy is insincere and dis
honest, and woe to that politician or
group of politicians whose sincerity
and honesty the public comes TO doubt.
Nothing means such speedy and GER
tain political death. The Iowa senator
thus assails Aldrichism at the one IA
tai breach in the wall. 1t is impos-
sible to argue against the principle. A
Dolitical platform is not, like car
platform. meant to get in on. but not
to stand on. 1t must be made in good
faith and considered as sacred as the
promisSOry note of private individ-
ual-indeed. more so, for with the plat
form pledge tens of millions of private
individuals are involved. and the duty
To fulfill the obligation is raised to
the nth power This principle is pri-
mary and fundamental. There is no
gainsaying IT. The issue then becomes
one of fact as to whether platform
pledges have been carried ont or not,

ton, the basis for making rates being
that laid down in the last Republican
national platform and made promi-
nent In the campaign of President
Taft. which is that the tariff on any
given article should equal the differ
ence between the cost of domestic and
foreign production, with the addition

How Cummins Corralled Dolliver.


the bunch. Jonathan L. Dolliver, Cum
Minis colleague from Iowa, has the
American eagle trained so that 1t will
not only spread and soar for him, but
turn fiipfiaps in midair and scream in
sheer rhetorical delight. Dolliver is
also an insurgent. though there are
those who say that Cummins had to
kidnap him and drag him into the
game, or rather, Cummins grabbed off
the whole state of Iowa and Dolliver
had to come along If he wanted TO play
at ALL At any rate, he is committed
and now makes Il noise like a pro-
| gressive Likewise he gave Brothers
| Aldrich. Hale and Lodge several un-
| comfortable half hours during the late
| lamented extra session. Dolliver was
| born in what is now West Virginia
fifty-one years ago and has been in
congress nineteen years, seven Of
which have been spent in the senate.
Joseph l.. Bristow of Kansas IS an
| editor and a reformer of the Roose-
Welt type. When he was not running
| paper in the Sunfiower country he
was secretary of the Republican state
committee and private secretary To
Governor Morrill,. Mckinley made him
| one of the assistant postmaster gen
erals. third, fourth or seventeenth.
and he unearthed the Cuban postal
| frauds. This made him right with
| Roosevelt. who set him to work clean
| ing out the whole postoffice depart
ment. which needed 1t enough, as the
| sequel showed Bristow was born in
| 1861 and is new member of the sen
ate. The only pity is that he cannet
investigate that body and clean it up
as he did the postoffice bunch.
Personally speaking. it is grief to
| me that Burkett and Brown of Ne
braska. who insurged up to the very
| last hour. had not the stamina to stick
| it out and vote against Brother Al
| drich in the last diuch-and beyond.
| / used to know both of them in my
salad days. when l was trying To do
a little reforming on my own hook.
| But there is hope that in spite of that
| one vote for the conference report they
will return to the insurgent camp and
make things interesting along the
| Platte.
Nor should Knute Nelson. the grand
| old Norwegian from Minnesota, he for
| gotten, nor Clapp, both of whom stuck
to the end; nor Coe I. Crawford of
| South Dakota who insurged in spots
and at intervals, although lacking at
| the last roll call; nor Victor Murdoch
and a host of others in the house: nor
| old Uncle Josh and Bill Jones. back on
| the farm and in the shops, who had no
chance to spout in the halls of legis-
! lation, but who are look ing grim and
waiting till they get chance to go
| to the polls. These are the boys that
have the last say in the matter, and
| their verdict is yet to be heard.

Handsome Albert. +"

Senator Cummins is tifty-nine years
old. of distinguished appearance. iron
gray hair and mustache, graceful and
Chesterfieldian in manner, always
wins the support of the women-so
much so. in fact, that if woman suf-
frage were in force he would be elect
cd almost unanimously man who
dresses we'll and knows how TO wear
his clothes, called by his enemies
Handsome Albert" and this man
Cummius.' an orator who is equally
at home with n column of figures and
a spread eagle peroration-in fact. an
aii around leader that if he catches
the tide on this present proposition is
liable TO go to almost any heights. He
is of the sort who will either be presi-
dent or die in the last ditch. Glue
your optic to Cummins, for. without
trying to pun. lie is Il coming man.
Then there is La Toilette. small aud
scrappy. who has fought even harder
| than Cummins and has been abused
more, who also was three times gov
ernor of his state and fought against
the railroads and the old political
! bosses, Il man who would not accept
| his election to the senate until sure
| that his state reforms would he car
ried out, La Toilette is five years
Younger than Cummins and has been
in the senate four years longer. When
| he went to that body the AldriclIes
! and Hales tried TO haze him. but he
hit them so hard that they soon gave
up that policy. We'll hated by the in
| lerests aud better loved every year by
| the plain people of the United States.
| it is a tossup whether Cummins or
! La Toilette is the real leader of the in-
| Surgent forces. and it does not much
matter since they are so nearly alike
| in principle that the same cause will
triumph whichever carries the banner.
| Perhaps the third in Importance
among the senate insurrectos is AL
| bert J. Beveridge of Indiana. who is
Younger than either CumminS or La
| Toilette and has been in the senate
much longer. Beveridge is outgrow!ng
| his reputation as Il boy orator and
| through his fight against child labor
and for other reforms is more aud
more endearing himself to the hearts
! of the progreSsiveS. He was born i'll
| Ohio in 1862, beat Bryan in 4 college
| oratoricai contest and has long been
Il Chautauqua idol and a spelbinder
that could do anything with the Eng
liSh language except shut it off. The
J old chaps in the senate never would

movement has happened along he is
