FOR GAAAP CLARK
Picturesque M'SSOnr,al Becomes
Conservative as He Views
Possibility of Achieving
Ambition of His
Political Life.

Such a result would be peculiarly un
fortunate for the Democratic party.
since the revolt against the house ma
chine was one of the chief causes of
Democratic victory. That Champ
Clark, who was such tower OF
strength in the fight against the Can
non rules, should now throw his in
fiuence toward perpetuating the most
Objectionable of those rules passes be-
lief. Whatever may be his personal
attitude, it is assured that the battle
for free and truly representative
house will go forward until 1t is won.
Another issue that will be n factor
In the speakership fight is the method
Of tariff revision. There will be an
element in the new majority that will
be for a sweeping reduction all along
the line. They will demand a tariff
for revenue bill, including all sched-
ules 1t is certain that such a meas.
ure would be defeated in the senate
1t could result in no relief to the peo-
pie and would be useful only in a po-
litical way as establishing a party rec
ord on which to go to the country in

gate difference in cost of production
at home and abroad, together with
other facts bearing on the question
After this commission reports congress
takes up its findings as to any partic-
ular item and legislates thereon with
out disturbing the remainder of the
tariff.
Thus far the Democrats have shown
no disposition to favor the tariff COM
mission system, and some of them
have openly opposed 1t. Now a faction
is developing in the party favorable to
reductions, one schedule at a time.
Their contention is that with a Re
publican senate and president such a
method is the only one that stands
any chance of going through
Mr.. Clark has already intimated that
he will advise caution in tariff reduc-
ton and has spoken faVorably of the
one schedule at time plan. On both
this question and that of the house
rules it is fairly certain that he will
acquiesce in the action of a majority

to eliminate these issues as factors in
his candidacy for the speakership.
Even though he is a Chautauqua lee
turer and a rather fiery orator of the
transforming persuasion, Champ Clark
does not lack in political astuteness
and is not liable to stumble into any
pitfalls his enemies may dig for his
feet. He is something Of a seasoned
veteran and has already called atten-
tion to the fact that Talbot of Mary
land, Jones of West Virginia and him
self are the only Democrats of the
new congress who were members
when the party was last in power in
the house. He should have learned
some things about the political game
in all these years.
Mr.. Clark's friends insist that he has
been much uuderrated by the country
and that he himself is to some de-
gree responsible for the misunder-
standing. They say that he is really
more of the scholar in politics than

division or otherwise they should re-
veal the fact that they are not effec-
lively and sincerely progressive the
verdict against them will be as swift
and decisive as was this one In their
favor The voters will either return to
the Republican party or, what is more
probable, will form a new party that
will be all progressive.
New Party In Sight.
Right now there is movement oil
foot to form a progressive league. Ii
is to be nonpartisan-that is, composed
of members of both parties. 1t will.
not be in any sense a new party, at
least not yet, but will be pledged to
advance progressive legislation and
progressive candidates. Whether mem
bers Of this league or not, the MAORI
ty of the American people are Of this
mind. and they have passed the point
where they can be trified with. In all
friendship this fact should be made
apparent to the Democratic majority
of the incoming congress.
AS already stated, Champ Clark has
shown himself TO be fairly progressive,
and this is fortunate. He has one of
the greatest opportunities that ever
faced an American public official. If
he measures up to 1t he will become
one of the nations really great fig
ures.
Mr.. Clark was born in Kentucky in

more he was president of Marshall
