try with the announcement that quar-
ter will neither be asked nor given.
Such a declaration from such a man
insures a finish fight.
On the mere issue of carrying out

Cummins program. But that is mere

The issue really involved is the i'm

Of congress did disregard platform

bill and therefore should be retired
There is the crux of the matter, and
so the whole thing hinges not SO much
on question of principle as on
question of fact in the application Of a
principle.
On this issue Cummins is fairly sure
to have the backing of the entire in
surgent group in both houses and of
considerable portion Of public senti-
ment on the outside. Even those in
surgents who voted for the bill on
vations and on the general issue are
liable to join with their former CON-
panion in arms and to continue the
fight on "Aldrichism," as standpatism
has come to be called. In the senate
there were six besides Cumm1ns who
voted against the Payne bill on final
passage-Beveridge Of Indiana, Mel
son and Clapp Of Minnesota, La Fol-
lette of Wisconsin, Dolliver Of Iowa
and Bristow of Kansas. In addition
to these were Brown and Burkett Of
Nebraska, Crawford of South Dakota
and Borah of Idaho, who had been in
insurrection all the time, but who final

appeal Of President Taft.

Since the advent of Cummins in the
senate, however, the Iowa man has
gradually forged to the front, and now
his action in issuing his defiance to the
powers that be will doubtless make
him the popular figure among those
who espouse the new idea. He is a

Badger Herald-Rustler: 1t is
charged against the American peo-
pie that while they are models of
neatness and order in their own
homes they are careless about the
appearance of their streets and
other public places. This charge is
too sweeping, yet it has much truth
in it. Waste paper, uncut grass and
weeds lessen the attractiveness of
any town. The real remedy is for cit
liens to take the same pride in the
appearance of their city or village
as they take in that Of their own

considered as the common home of
it's inhabitants and all should have
a common interest in it.
