ed on the dignity and effectiveness
of the administration.
The rebuke to Cannon in the
house, followed the submission OF
the Pinchot-Ballinger case. The
minority members, seeing no pat
ronage, or sugar. cotton or hides
tariff duties involved. and the safety
of no dry docks threatened. joined
the insurgent Republicans, and gave
Joe Cannon the first rude shock he
has felt.
The presidents message has pleas
ed the west. Chicago papers pub
lished editorial comments and inter
views with editors and leaders in the
Mississippi valley, especially the in
surgent territory. and they are un-
animous in their approval of the
program and expressions of conf
dence in the president. The presi-
dent and Cannon stand for different
ideals in government AS Cannon
ism wanes, the power of Taft as
cends. When the former disappears
behind the political horizon, and the
latter reaches its zenith, Taft will
be found in command of the pro-
gressive forces in the United States
congress, and there will be no reac-
tionary influence to be fought in the
next national Republican convention.

STATE PRESS.

Political Fouraushing at Frankfort.

Political Fourtiushing at Frankfort
Echoing over the state Is the first
gun of the Democrats ushering in
the campaign of 1911. From Frank
fort a new story was sent out broad
east painting a dismal picture of the
condition OF the state treasury after
two years Of Republican administra-
ton.
In substance this story said that
the treasury is nearly a million dol
lars in debt and that the governor
and other officials secretly favored a
bond issue. Along this line it was
stated that when the Democrats went
out Of office they left nearly a million
dollars in the treasury. thus making
out a bad situation, indeed. for the
Republicans, provided facts are as
they have been alleged.
Now for the real situation. At
the close of the 1907 campaign there
was a considerable amount OF money
in the treasury. But the Democratic
administration had deliberately de-
layed payment on hundreds of war
rants against the treasury in order to
have a surplus on hand for pollti-
cal showing to the people.
When Governor Wilson swept the
state, he found that the first thing
Treasurer Farley had to do was to
pay off several hundred thousand dol
lars in overdue warrants. Then the
1903 legislature made the unprece-
dented appropriation Of $500 600 for
education. and another $500 900 for
the new capitol. other big amounts
were appropriated and all of these
extraordinary expenses have had to
be paid by the Republican admins
tration out of current revenues.
As Auditor James says. 1t is an un-
heard of thing for a state TO build a
50 900 900 capitol without a bond
issue. As future generations will en-

whose wishes the Republican admin
istration has had to carry out II
remains to be seen what the present
session will do further to make a
bad financial showing for the admin
istration to bear.
But of this fact, Republicans
throughout the state may be sure.
that the juggling OF figures and facts
by the Democratic party bosses at
Frankfort, especially in a case so
plainly the work OF the Democrats
themselves. is sham 20 Transparent

PRESIDENT TAFT AND HIS
PARTY.

Three things happened in Wash
ington in one day that will affect
the relations of the present admins
tration to the Republican party, and
of the Republican party to the coun-
try at large. President Taft sent his
special message on interstate COM
merce corporations TO congress and
discharged Clifford Pinchot. chief
forester of the department of agri-
culture; and the Republican insur-
gents in the house. with the aid of
the Democrats. deprived Speaker
Cannon of authority to appoint the
investigating committee in the Pin
chot-Ballinger case, and assumed
that power to themselves.
Those. who have read so much OF
the Pinchot-Ballinger incident as
prejudiced periodicals contain. and
refrained from reading President
Taft's message viii never have a
clear understanding of the situation;
for the three incidents combine in
marking the present status of the
administration.

of COMPANY.

PHILADELPHIA, April AFTER a ses-

carmen of the Philadelphia Rapid Transit
Company voted to remain on strike until
their demands have been granted by the

According to the strike leaders it was
unanimously voted to ignore the PROPOSE
ton Of the company, made through Mayor
Reyburn two weeks ago, and to remain
out until the company agreed to give the
,nen. their old runs with their rights Of
seniority.
Many men left the meeting before the
vote was taken, but Peter Driscoll, presi-
dent of the local carmen's union. denied
that there had been any wholesale deser-
tions and declared that most Of the men
were more determined than ever to hold
out until an honorable settlement had
been reached.
Other accounts Of the meeting, which
was secret. state that c. o. Pratt and the
other leaders had difficulty in restraining
the men from accepting the company's
offer.
