The republican senatorial conven-
ton for the sixteenth district last ev-
ening was certainly between the devil
and the deep sea for a candidate TO
succeed Horace T. DeLong With
internal ructions in the Mesa county
delegation, some Dictates wanting

enough trouble, but they were driven
into the hard choice of deciding be
tween George Smith of Mesa county,
a man who admitted carrying a rail-
road pass but declared he would vote
against Simon Guggenheim no mat
ter what his party. constituents or
anybody else thought about it, and
George Stephan of Delta county. who
declared that his action as to voting
for Guggenheim would depend upon
the sentiment, not of the mass of the
people of Colorado, but of his party
as expressed in a state convention
where Guggenheim' candidacy might
be an issue.
And they selected Stephan.
More than an hour of the conven-
TONS time was taken up at the start
by caucuses and conferences, in which
Mesa county tried to whip enough
into line to insure Smiths nominal
ton. But there were six of the home
delegation that would not vote for
Smith, one persisting in voting for
Vincent. Vincent had sent down def
mite word that he was a poor man
depending on his law practice for a
livelihood, and could not afford to
take the nomination for the small
financial return there is in it,

REAL ISSUE UNCHANGED
Struggle Between Common Right anc
Privilege Is Issue Today.

struggle Between Common hIoht ana
Privilege Is Issue Today
Last year was the centenary OF
Lincoln's birth; this month the semi
centennial Of his first nomination
for the presidency. These events
serve to bring the man and his utter
Ances more frequently to the public
attention than at any previous time
Il our generation.
Probably never before has there
been more need tan now for the
American people to renew them
selves in the spirit of Lincoln and to
make effectual in our national life
the sentiments he uttered and lived.
For instance, from his reply to
Douglas in the last debate:
That is the real issue. That Is the
issue that will continue in this country
when these poor tongues OF Judge
Douglas and myself shall be silent. 1t is
the eternal struggle between these two
prinGnles-Iight and wrong-throughout
the world. They ara the two principles
that have stood face to face from the
beginning of time, and will ever con-
tinue to struggle. The one IS the COM
mon right of humanity and the other
the divine right of kings. 1t is the same
principle in whatever shape it develops
itself It Is the same spirit that says:
You toll and work and earn bread, and
I'll eat it." No matter in what shape it
comes whether from the mouth OF a
king who seeks to beStrde the people Of
his own nation and live by the fruit OF
their labor, or from one race Of men rs
an apology for enslaving another race. i
f. the same tyrannical principle.
1t will be well for Ohio voters to
carry these Lincoln words in mind
this summer and fall. The fight is
between the people and privilege,
and privilege fights ever under the
banner Of "reform"-for In its true
colors it can never hope to intrench
itself.
Today railroad and corporate inter.
ests seek in Ohio the reelection OF
Governor Harmon, that they may put
him forwfl d for White House honors
in 1912. Harmon continuing for eight
months after his Inauguration as gov
ernor, as custodian of the Morgan
railroad interests in Ohio, stamps him
lndelibly as the champion of organic
ed wealth. No amount Of s0phistry
can obliterate the mark.

BRYAN EVER ANTI. HARMON

Nebraskan Personally Explained to
Governor His Attitude.
William Jennings Bryan has never
concealed his feelings. politically, to-
ward Governor Harmon. The two
were never in accord. Harmon open
ly boltsd Bryan in 1896, and perhaps
voted against him in 1900. But 1t is
not on this account that Bryan Op-
poses the development OF Ohio's gov
ernor into a figure Of national prom
his corporation affiliations-his close
relationship to Morgan and the Wall
street crowd.
An old story is retold in the Gin
cinnAti Times-Star:
The attack ON Governor Harmon
in the current number of Mr.. Bryan'S
Commoner is not particularly surpris-
ing to those who have been watching
the governors career from moder-
ate distance. Some of Mr.. Harmon's
closest political friends may have for
gotten the Nebraskan. But to those
far enough away to get the proper
perspective, it has long been clear
that Bryan and the Harmon boom
would come into violent contact soon
er or later.
"one day, during q campaign trip.
they we're sitting in railroad car.
Suddenly Bryan turned to his com
panion. Harmon. you are an agree
able man he said. Personally I like
you very much. But you are too
much Of corporation man; I could
never support you for the presi-
dency.'"

Among the disappointments of the
hour to enemies Of the Republican
administration is that concerning the
attitude of President Taft in the face
of the present trying situation in
congress. Far from being drowned
by apparently discouraging circum
stances, the president has squared
his shoulders and presented cour
ageous determination to stand by
his own course and policies and tc
lead legislation into line with the
keeping of the Republican platform
