As to Conservation and

THE PARTY WILL KEEP FAITH
Outline Of Future Legislation if Re
pubIicans Control the Next
Congress.

Herewith we present the third in
stallment of President Taft's great
message to the people. 1t is the most
important part in that it deals largely
with what the republican party pro-
poses to do. The program is an
nounced. The people are told just
what they may expect-and President
Taft mas a wonderful record for de
livering the goods. What has the dem
ocratic party to promise? What can
it give? What basis for hope of re-
form in democratic victory: There
: none. A democratic congress reans
two 7oars OF iuaction, Of agitation, OF
unrest, Of business uncertainty and
possible panic. Read the presidents
message 10 you. He concludes his let
te ras follows:

lieve he is essentially honest and that
in the main, what he says and does
makes for the general good.
This affection does not blind us to
his faults. The German empire is
very much in love with it's kaiser, but
it does not hesitate to disagree with
him, even to reprimand him at times.
Even so the American people may do
with Roosevelt, while still recognizing
him as the greatest factor of his time.
One may nave little sympathy with
and no affection For Senator Lorimer,
but one may still call attention to the
inconsistency Of Colonel Roosevelt in
taking the law into his own hands on
one day and strenuously advising 9th
ers not to do SO on the day following.

Conservation.

One of the great questions which
has been made a national issue and
aroused public interest through the in
sistence of President Roosevelt is that
of conservation of our national re-
sources. From the federal standpoint
this concerns the preservation of for
ests, the reclamation of arid lands OF
the government and the proper treat
ment and disposition of our govern
ment coal lands, phosphate lands, oil
and gas lands, and of the lands known
as water power sites at the points on
the streams where the water power
must be converted in order to be use
full During Mr.. Roosevelt's admins
tration millions of acres of land includ-
ed within the classes described were
withdrawn in the United States prop
er and in Alaska, in order to await
proper legislation. Doubt arose as to
the executive power to make these
Withdrawals, and therefore as to their
legality, should they be contested in
court
The present administration contin-
ued the executive Withdrawals, but
suggested as matter of wise precau-
ton, securing from congress express
power to make them. By republican
majorities in both houses a withdraw
al bill for this purpose was enacted,
and now over seventy million acres
have been withdrawn of lands includ-
ed within the classes described. Much
of the land reserved as coal land is
valuable for agriculture, and therefore
congress adopted an entirely feasible
and useful plan by which the home
stead laws we're applied to the surface
of the land, while the coal in the
ground is still reserved as the prop
erty OF the government.
CommendabIe Departure.
This is new departure in our land
laws and is highly to be commended.
In addition to this, it was deemed nee
essary, in order that certain reclama-
tiol projects of the government
should be completed within reason
able time, that an issue of $20,000,00
bonds should be authorized with which
to secure water for the settlers upon
government lands within the promise
of the project, the bonds to be re-
deemed by the water rents for the
service rendered. In this way hun

session of Robert NJ. LaFollette."
The above tells the story OF the
Wisconsin primary. The regulars had
not only to fight the insurgents OF
their own party, but the democrats,
who Joined almost bodily with the La
Toilette forces. There is evidence
that the plan to load the dice against
regular republicanism in Wisconsin
was carefully thought out by the dem
ocrats and most skillfully executed.
In fact it succeeded only too we'll and
democracy as party was actually
wiped off the slate. According to the
Wisconsin law, party which fails to
receive 20 per cent of the total vote
is not entitled to place on the ballot.
The socialists achieved this, the pro-
hibitionists achieved it, but the demo
Gratis were so anxious to beat repub-
licanism at the polls by foisting La
Toilette on them at the primary
that they overdid the matter and so
many of them deserted their party,
temporarily, that not even 20 per cent
remained to guard the camp and their
place on the ticket is lost.
We disagree with Roosevelt when
he urges that any republican is bound
to abide the result of such primary.
60 h,,~1
government In all the states where
the primary prevails it is simply an
informal ballot" for candidates, par
ticipated in by men of all parties in
discriminatory.
Lacey, not Cummins, would be the
senator from Iowa had none but re-
publicans voted at the primary, and
no one knows where LaFollette would
have been had he not swallowed the
democracy of Wisconsin whole.
AS method of finding out the senti-
ment of a single political party the
primary is an absolute failure. 1t is
standing invitation to perjury and
self qualification. It gives opportunity
for minority party to dictate the
affairs of a majority party. 1t may
be all right from the standpoint OF
the Independent voter, bur there can
be no party solidarity, no harmony,
no homogenity when the affairs OF
one party are controlled by those who
have no interest in it save to destroy.
Had the Wisconsin republican pri-
mary been a party affair we would
have agreed with Roosevelt, but when
it is apparent that two-thirds OF the
democrats of that state voted the re-
publican ballot the result ceases to
be binding.
The primary is simply an informal
ballot for candidates. 1t is law I'M
der which no party organization can
long exist So far as parties are con-
cerned it simply spells anarchy and
will do so until some iron-clad pro-
visions are made which will exclude
the invasion of one party by organ
lied raids on the part of another. No
man should be allowed to vote at
party primary unless he is willing to
take oath that he has voted for the
majority of that party's candidates for
the three years preceding. Neither
the republican vote nor the independ-
ent vote should be allowed to dictate
a democratic nomination and vice
versa. The man who is "above party"
has no place at a primary. Under the
circumstances we can but sympathize
with Mr.. Bryan in his loss. So far as
the record goes the democratic party

and would seriously impair the power
of the courts of equity to do justice.
Then there is the measure to promote
the merchant marine engaged in for
eign service, to which in previous con-
crosses the democratic party has OPP
posed an almost solid front There is
the measure forbidding the acquisition
of stocks of one railway company in
a competing line, and there are also
those bills, already referred to, to Sc
cure further safety appliances on rail
ways and to establish basis for
workingmen's compensation. There is
also the promise OF the republican
platform to make better provision for
securing the health of the nation. The
most tangible and useful form that
this can take would be the establish
ment of national bureau of health
to include all the health agencies of
the government now distributed in
different departments.

ment of it's promises, and in view of
the standard that it has set in respect
to the sacredness of party pledges, l
have no hesitation in ugring all who
are in favor of progress, in favor of
practical conservation. in favor of
economy in government, in favor of
the just regulation of railways and in
terstate commerce corporations, in
favor of bureau of health, in favor
of proper limitation of the power of
equitable injunction, and who are in
favor of measures to promote the
merchant marine engaged in foreign
service, to vote for the republican can
didates for congress in order that their
wish for all this progressive legisla-
ton may be gratified.
Conclusion.
| In closing, it may not be inappro-
pirate for me to invite your attention,
and that of all those engaged in ad-
vocating the republican cause in the
coming election, to the fact that it is
of the utmost Importance to make this
campaign of education as to the
facts and to clear away the clouds of
misrepresentation that have obscured
the real issues and have made it diff
cult to secure for the republican ma
jorities in congress the real credit due
them from the country for the tremen-
dous task they have accomplished. If
this is brought clearly home to all
voters, and especially to the young
men now voting for the first time, and
they become impressed, as they ought
to be by this record, with the differ
ence in the governmental efficiency
and capacity Of the republican and
democratic parties, they will enroll
themselves with the party of construc-
ton and progress rather than with
the party of obstruction and negation,
and the resulting legislation of the
Sixty-second congress will vindicate
their choice. Sincerely yours,
VIM. H. Taft.

Feeding Alfalfa With Silaae.

An Iowa dairyman is quoted in the

recommending alfalfa iii connection

the countries where alfalfa hay can
be successfully raised there is no bet

on one hand the siiage is low in dry
matter and high In carbohydrates. On
the other hand. we aud alfalfa hay

proper proportions these foods make
