IRISH MEMBERS TO HOLD BAL
ANcE OF POWER IN GREAT
BRITAIN.

While the British elections are
not yet finished. enough is already
known to make 1T reasonably certain
that the Irish members will hold the
balance of power in the next House
OF Commons.
At no previous time during the
lives of those now living has Ire
lands parliamentary delegation oc
cupied such vantage ground.
If this advantage is wisely usee
it will secure for Ireland, in the neal
future, a reasonable grant of HON,

ocratic house of representatives and

CHAMP CLARK FOR SPEAKER OF
THE HOUSE.


Champ Clark of Missouri is dem
ocratic democrat, and he is filling
the position Of minority leader with
such ability and fairness that it is
not alone possible but exceedingly
probable that the parties will change
places in the next House of Repre-
sentatives, and that the progressive
republicans will be relieved of the
disagreeable duty of again attempt
Ing to knock down and drag out the
Cannon machine.
1t would be great victory for
real democrats if honest old Champ
Clark should be the next Speaker of
the House.

THE BALLlNeER-plNcHoT IN.
CURRY.

Senator Nelson of Minnesota is
chairman of the committee which will
investigate the differences between
Ballinger and Pinchot.
To commence with, the committee
should ascertain whether or not the
Cunningham crowd of coal land grab
bers, through their agent. Mr.. Ballin-
ger, helped to finance Mr.. Taft's
presidential campaign, upon and with
the understanding that if they sue
ceeded at the polls Ballinger would
be made Secretary of the Interior.
II there is nothing of that nature in
the case, the President and his sec
rotary should have the benefit of ev-
cry fairly established doubt.
On the other hand, if the office
was given to Ballinger, as the result
of a corrupt deal between the coal
land grsbbers and Mr.. Taft's cam
paign committee. then every infer
ence Of guilt should be given full
weight against the resident and
his accused Secretary.
1T is safe to say. however, that Il
Ballinger's land grabbing clients were
large contributors to Mr.. Taft's cam
paign fund, no committee appointed
by the present congress will permi
that subject to be investigated. I
there is anything real rotten in
around. or about this Ballinger ap
pointment, 1T is quite safe to sa!
that the present committee will d

of supreme Hypocrisy in which such
men as himself and Aldrlch are at a

itatingly characterizes as demagogues
The very fact that Taft has felt
the necessity OF making another apol-
ogy and explanation to the people
indicates that he appreciates how. dis
NAL a failure is his administration
and how utterly gone is the peoples
faith in him.

ton of the railroads of Manchuria
got badly knocked out. Japan was
the first to turn it down, and Rus

it after it was down.

The people are heartily sick and
tired of Taft and are clamoring for
Roosevelt. And some of Roosevelt's
enemies are saying that before he
forced the republican party to nomi-
nate Taft he knew perfectly we'll the
kind of man Taft was and that he
deliberately calculated what would
naturally happen as result of Taft's
administration proving colossal fail
ure. We do not believe any such
story, although the turning to Roos-
evelt for help is quite marked in all
sections Of the country. There are
many who would like to give him e
seat III congress and make him the
next Speaker of the House.

does not matter whether the undue
profits come through Sitting compe-

devices, through corrupting public Of

The first step should not be in
the direction of home rule. For many
years the voters of the United King
dom have been willing to permit Ire
land to manage its local affairs
much the same as is done by the
several states of this country. But
the House of Lords has blocked the
way to any form of self government
for Ireland. Now let the Irish ma
tionalists join hands with the Eng
lish liberals and mend or end the
House of Lords. When that is done
home rule will come with the compli-
