London, Dec. 1T-Rumor says that
Queen Mary is going to have a black
carpet in her boudoir in Buckingham
Palace. and. il the rumor is true, black
drawiEg-rooms will speedily become the

ago there was a temporary liking for
black carpets. and smart people fitted

but the fashion quickly died out
II was found that black as a back

well with a black carpet. it is next to
impossible TO have any light OF delicate

out. This last campaign has shown
the folly of fighting with a party that
is half one way and half the other.
A house divided against itself can no
more stand now than It could in the
days of Lincoln or of the Galilean.
Somehow and somewhere the progress
sives Of the country are going to get
together and fight together.
The matter of a new party is not an
Immediate issue, however. Time will
show the right and wise thing to do
in respect to that. The thing immedi-
ately before us now is -te~advance our
principles in the present and coming
congress. To this end we must get the
true representatives, OF the people in
both parties out from among the
agents Of the interests IN both parties.
We must know who are our friends
and who are our enemies, find where
we stand and where our enemies stand,
draw the line and fight it out. That
is the manly way, the honest way, the
only way. ev* <s ~
This is not a matter of partisanship
or even of politics as usually under
stood. 1t is a matter of business and
patriotism. 1t involves not. only a
lower tariff, a free congress. direct
nominations, direct legislation and
popular rule as opposed Incorporation
rule. 1t includes these things, but is
greater than any or all of them. 1t In
wolves the cost of living and hence the
welfare and happiness of every man,
woman and child. Aye, more, 1t con
Germs public and private morality. The
outcome of this fight will influence the
very existence of free government it
self-not only now, but IN the future;
not only here, but in all lands.
The contest can only be won by men
who are in earnest. There is no room
in it for the timeserver or self seeker,
nc place for compromise, no space for
the half hearted or insincere. 1t viii
be a mans fight before 1t Is over. 1t
will not be a thing Of make-belieye,
gallery play or grand-standing. 1t will
have no Use for the man who is n
thing in n part of the country and
something else In another part. 1t will
have no blowing hot and blowing cold.
He must be all one thing or oil the
other. God is In this struggle. and God
has no employment for shams or make
believes. He knows his own, and in
the crises he reveals his own to the
people, The men who win this fight
for the rights of man-and it is going
to be won-will be those Of Puritan
fervor and determination.
The Anglo-Saxon world has seen two
supreme struggles for human liberty
and advancement. One was the Crom-
well revolution in England. The other
was the wal for independence in
America. 1t is a rather startling fact
that from the beginning OF the Crom.
well revolution, 1912, to the openiag o.
the American Revolution, 17T6, was 1S4
years and that another 1874 years from
1776 brings us to 1910.
Are we approaching another titanic
struggle of the same magnitudef There
are many signs in the affirmative no
only In America, but throughout tn,
world. The contest viii naturally b.
iereest in the great republic. It 4

until after long years OF EFFORT. To
drive the special interests out Of poll
tics and TO restore the government to
the people, to make this q republic
after the ideals OF Washington and
Lincoln, will require nothing Tess than
a political revolution. Let as-hops
that 1t will be a peaceful revolution,
but it will have to go far and accom-
plish much to end the reign. Of greed
and graft that is over US. -
The progressive movement has only
begun. This year saw it's first ma
tional campaign. There will be many
campaigns, both state and national,
before the end comes. The mere
swing of the pendulum to the Demo
cratic party establishes nothing, ex-
cept in SO far as the Democratic
party shows itself progressive. This
change came not because the PED
pie loved the Democraey=morerbut
because they loved the stand pat Re
publicans less. If the Democrats oil
any considerable portion Of them
prove to be re~actionists, If they favor
the interests even by tndirection or
delay, the revolt against them will ba
as swift and disastrous as it was
against Cannonism and 'AfdrichfsmF
Not only so, but there are enough
true progressives in the Democratic
ranks to split that party as wide
open as the Republican party has been
split. The fight is on, and at last the
people know what they are fighting
for and whom they are lighting
against. If the Democrats decide to
stand for progressive principles sim
cerely and whole heartedly all well n
good. But it must be no divided or
hating allegiance. The country's eyes
are on them, and the people have
passed the stage where they can be
fooled or triled with. Party names
and professions are nothing at all;
performance is everything. Democra-
cy has it's opportunity, as it had in
1893. 1t failed then. If 1t falls again
Its day will be over. In that event
the progressives will either capture
the Republican party or form a new
party that will be all one way. AS
time passes the signs multiply that
the new party will be the only road

never before. The voters have spoken
and have administered a singing re-
buke. to s%tandpatism. But that is only
a small step In the direction of real
reform. If the people imagine that
they can gain relief merely by Jump.
Ing from one party to the other their
memories are short. They have tried
that method before with but indif-
ferent results.--lt is not parties but
measures that must be changed. The
appeal should now be made to the
progressives IN the Democratic party
as-welI a to those in the Repub-
lican to stand for popular rights as
against special privilege. Nor are
high sounding platforms and protesta-
tons enough. The people should de.
mand results.

Pregressives should not make the
mistake of letting up in their efforts
because election is over. Now is the
very time to secur the fruits Of such
victories. as they have won by insist
ing that their representatives In con
gress and other officials should put
the new principles in force. They
should demand that the progressiyes
In both parties In congress stand to-
gether for advanced legislation. The
real dividing line in this country is
between those who are for the people
and those who are for special interests.
No p~artisanship of the old and out
worn brand should be allowed to blind
the eyes of the voters and their rep
resentati to this actual line of
cleavage. 1t is no longer a question
of Republican or Democrat, but n of
progressive or reacttonary. To make
sure that members Of congress act on
this principle, their constituents, re-
CARELESS of past party affiliations,
should instruct their congressman and

as against private graft.
