WE'D, JAN.12, 1909.

Governor Wilson, in his mes
sage to the Legislature. covered
much ground and revealed hut
little not heretofore known, in
fact, it largely assumes the nature
of a defense of himself and party
before the voice OF an accuser
has been heard. In calling the
attention Of the Legislature to
the financial condition Of the
State he shows that 81, 123, 706, Is
is the deficit, and the appropria-
lions that should be made brings
the total amount up to nearly
two million dollars that the Leg
islature should provide for n
even pull for the next year. To
do this means n increase in
tax, or a bond issue. While the
message shows that the present
administration inherited from
the Democrats a deficit of $124,-
s97, yet it claims no responsible
ty for the increase, but charges
the deficit up to a Democratic
Legislature. Not charging. ex-
travagance, not lodging party
responsibilities, but it seems
strange that a Democratic Leg
islature would elect Mr.. Bradley
to the u. S. Senate. Regardless
of responsibility the Legislature,
in our judgment, should increase
the revenues, even though the
burden falls on the tax payers,
and cut out the appropriations
until the deficit has been wiped
out. This would doubtless re-
tard some progressive movements
already inaugurated, would Grip
pie to some extent the beneficent
work % f charitable institutions
depending on state aid, but the
season of depression would not
be long, and when once cut of
debt renewed vigor would fol-
low in the revival of charities,
'buoyant hope and iberalities of
the State. In fact the present
assembly has. a difficult task and
a responsibility that should not
be lightly considered. If it es-
cares without much criticism it
will be necessary to reduce ap-
preparations to the lowest dollar
possible. The deficit under Mr..
Wilson is a magnificent show
ing of expert executive ability
and unless relieved by the Gen
eral Assembly will doubtless equal
the capital stock of some of the
modern industrial corporations
by the time his term expires.
His argument to shift response
bility from his party to the op-
posite may be pleasing to some,
but not convincing to many. Ken

POSITION OF MIR. ROOSEVELT
He Should Advocate Popular Govern
ment, Saws Senator Bourne.

Chicago, June 27-The position that ex-
President Roosevelt may take in American
affairs was outlined yesterday by United
States Senator Jonathan Bourne. jr., of
Oregon. who was in Chicago on his way to
Peoria.
'I believe that the great issue before the
American people will be popular govern
ment against delegated government" he
said. 'and / hope Mr.. Roosevelt will take
the leadership and advocacy of general
adoption of popular government. by which
I mean direct accountability Of all public
servants TO party and general celebrates.
rather than TO irresponsible political ma
chimes. The people undoubtedly will
weigh carefully any ideas he may have to
submit. His position in history will depend
as much upon the doctrines he may at
tempt to promulgate as on his accomplish
ments while President.
The work of this Congress was extreme
! " satisfactory, so far it goes" said Mr.
Bourne. In its relativeness to other Con-
crosses il has been more progressive in ef-
! fort and partial accomplishment than any
! for several decades"
