lions who supported the ticket in
1876, 1900, 1904 and 1908.
1t seems to be assumed upon the
part of those for whom Mr.. Waiter
son speaks that no man is fit to be a
Democratic President unless he
helped to elect Republican Presi-
dent in the critical campaign of four
teen years ago. If 1t would promote
harmony for the six and half mill
lions to they willgladly
follow one who laid down his arms
and went over to the enemy, would it
not also promote harmony for those
who left to announce that they will
gladly support some one who has
an unbrOken record of regularity?
Generosity should not be one-sided.
Just word more. Mr.. Waiter
son must remember that bouquets,
delightful as they are, are not, after
all, the most important things to be
considered. II Is nice to have peO-
pie praise you, but no one knows
better than MIR. Watterson that one
should do this duty whether he wins
praise or encounters criticism.
Mr.. Bryan is not ut liberty to con.
slider the matter from purely per-
sOnal standpoint. He owes some
thing to the men who have thrice
nominated him in spite of the in
tluences that are now at work trying
to emasculate our platform and sub
stitute n reacti0nary for progress
sive program. Can he afford to sur
render these supporters into the
hands of the opposition, merely to
enjoy the plaudits of those who have
no sympathy with the platforms on
which he has won? Mr.. Bryan will
be pleased to discuss these very in
teresting questions with the editor
of the Courier-J ournal when the is
sue is sented.-The COmmoner.

THAT BUSINESS
MEMS AUXILIARY.


The State Democratic Committee
has been the object of considerable
criticism for instituting and or.
ganizing what is called "Busi-
ness Mems Auxiliary" committee
to help work mp au enthusiasm
and interest for the party in the
present campaign. We would ex-
onerate the State Committee of the
allegations made, one of which is
that it is a movement to further
the candidacy of Mr.. Francis for
United States Senator. Whatever
may apparently be the personal
preference OF some of the members
of the auxiliary in the senatorial
contest, the committees only pur-
pose we are sure was to get a work.
ing organization of business men
that would inspire confidence and
convince other business men sup
posed to be affiliated with the par
ty, but who do not give the atlen-
ton to politics and party success
that they should, of the necessity
of their active co. operation.
The auxiliary is rather q large
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1910-08-25

committee, composed as it is of
merchants, lawyers, physicians,
farmers, etc., from every county
in the State, aud it is not at all
surprising that among them may
be some personal adherants of Mr..
Francis, and if examined closely
there may be found a large number
of them who favor Mr.. Reed. 1t
is to be hoped, however, that the
auxiliary will subordinate their
personal preferences as to candi-
dates to the real work foI which
they have been selected.
In the organization of Il working
force such as the business mems
auxiliary, it is not an easy matter
to always select the best men for
the work in hand in a given local
ity. There may be some who have
heretofore placed business gain
above their political convictions.
1t is hard to eradicate that kind of
selfsEness, and little good may be
expected from them. There may be
others who have taken small or no
interest in their party except to go
to the polls and vote. If they are
associated with Others in party
work, they may be brought TO see
the necessity Of greater activity,
and perhaps a few who have not
thought it necessary or obligatory to
even 20 to the polls to vote be.
cause of imaginary Inconvenience
or some similar reason, may be
aroused by the example of other
business men. But there are many
business men in the auxiliary list,
who il they will can do efficient
work for the party and materially
assist the State Committee.
We have in mind, however, one
merchant whose name appears in
the auxiliary list, from whom it
appears to us scant results could
be expected; a man who contri.
butes several hundred dollars a
year-in u business way of course
to the support of flourishing
special privilege Republican organ,
and who doesn't deign to contri-
butte even as much in business as II
dollar-a.year subscription to his
home Democratic paper. 1t is to
be hoped that this is an extreme
instance in the makeup of the
auxiliary This man has Il perfect
right to do as he does, and we
don't complain Of the exclusive ex.
ercise of his business privilege in ,
that direction; but if Democratic
papers are of any use or impOr-
tancc at all in Il political campaign,
a professed Democrat, for what
ever imaginary reasons or preju-
dices, extends to local RepubIi- |
can paper all his business patron
age, ignoring entirely his home
Democratic paper, can hardly be
an ideal member of a Democratic
campaign committee.
