THE sLunoeR AND THE LESSON

1t is agreed on all sides that the
Democratic landslide was caused by
the Payne-Aldrich tariff to greater
extent than by any or all of the 9TH
Ell combined sins OF the party In pow.
er--the Ballinger muddle. the boycott
ting of the insurgents, the bitterness
over the Wfckersham railroad bill, etc.
When men like Dolliver declared the
tariff revision OF 1909 to be hoax
second only to the Cook pole claim
the knell of Republican control of the
house was sounded, The Democrats
did not need better campaign litera-
ture than that which the insurgents
SO freely furnished-and they did not
even try to better 1t.
Verify. there are blunders that are
worse than crimes. Suppose the presi-
dent had vetoed the hoax in a ring
ing message, reminding the regulars
of their pledges, reaffiming to the ele
mentary moralities and demanding
real revision of the schedules and
rates. Or suppose he had served no
tice on the bourbon standpatters that
veto awaited any bill that was not
downward pledge! How the country
would have been stirred TO admiration
an how irresistible its support would
have been.
