rArT AND The PROGRESSIVE VIEW

TAFT AND IhB fFUGhEoSitE ftEW
I [Chicago Record Herald. leading Republican pa
per Of Central westI
Senator Cummins, like his brother in
surgent, Bristow, has declared himself
personally opposed to President Taft.
He does not believe Taft takes the
progressive view" or sympathizes with
the sentiments and aspirations of the
frank and file of the republican party. F"
AS others are doubtless expected to
''come out" for or against Taft, it is
not inopportune to seek further and
fuller information on the question Of
the presidents progressiveness. If he
is not progressive, what are the things
that deprive him of that badge Of honor,
that title or claim? The country is so
thoroughly committed to progress that
reactionary hasn't the ghost of a
chance, but the country is also fair and
reasonable, and to read Taft out of the
progressive movement is to startle a
good many republicans ard independ-
ents. These will demand a bill of
particulars.
For two or three decades reciprocity
has been d progressive plank. To Taft
we owe the very liberal reciprocity
agreement with Canada. Has recipro-
city ceased to be progressive demand?
Tariff revision in the light of facts
and scientific tests, Lrotection without
extortion, log-rolling and greed, protec-
ton measured by the cost of produc-
ton, has for years been universally re-
garded as a progressive plank. Taft
is a revisionist, an anti-extortion tariff
man, a believer in the test theoretically
favored by all the insurgents. Wherein
is his attitude reactionary? True, he
has vetoed patchwork bills and insists
on giving the tariff board time for in
vestigation-time fixed by Congress
itself-and using its data. Does this
make him a reactionary? Is revision
in August in the dark-progres-
sive, and revision in December, and in
the light, reactionary?
Unlimited arbitration is one of the
most inspiring proposals ever made. Is
Taft, who has made it, worked for it,
given US the epoch-making treaties
with England and France. a reaction
airy?
Are the Presidents positions on con-
servation, income taxation, regulation
of common carries, employers liability,
trust control, legal procedure, economy
reactionary?
Mr.. Taft vetoed a recall provision,
but on the judiciary recall ne is at one
with progressives like Senator Borah
and Woodrow Wilson.
AS an independent and progressive
newspaper the Record Herald would
like to know from Senator Cummins
precisely on what grounds, by reason
of what vital, fundamental differences,
he feels justified in asserting that the
president does not take "the progress.
sive view" of matters political and eco
nomic.

National and state politics have com
menced to boil for the campaign of
1912. People who desire any peace of
mind and to still retain their normal
sanity will be willing to let the profess
sional politicians, who never have any
thing else to do but exist on political
carton, do the blood sweating for sons
months yet to come. Political patriots
will save the couL,ss, so all the rest of
the people have to do is to try and saw e
up enough cash from their daily earn
ings to pay the taxes hesredupon them.

Minneapolis during the three days
ended August 80 broke all records for
the past eight years. Five hundred and
ninety-tive car loads arrived over the
Great Northern road, the eonsignments
coming principally from Minnesota
points, as grain shipments from North
Dakota have not yet reached any great
proportions owing to weather condi-

grain arrived in Minneapolis on all
roads during the three days named.

DR.. DANNA SEES SOME
CHANCE FOR PARTING
FILIPINO TWINS.

After an examination by Or
Danna At the Charity Hospital
Yesterday. it was decided that
Lucio and Simplicio. the Samar
twins. might be cut apart by an
extremely dangerous operation.
This decision was reached after
a careful examination by DIR.
Danna and some other physicians.
At the joining there is one set u
muscles that serves for both.
Whether another set is there, I'M
developed. is the question. The
examination took place in the
amphithca-re, and aroused much
interest among the nurses and
internes.
The boys arrived i'll taxicab

They are only a little over two
years old, and are fine, healthy
children, very strong from pull

front does most of the work. Sim
plicio was in the lead. They went
straight on back to the amphi-
theatre. and were not bit afraid.
The doctors talked and Joked with
them.
The question was how could
they. with the least baby opposi-
ton. remove their clothes for the
examination. One Of the doctors
was playing with them. making
them name the pans and tables
and things. "NIucha caliente,
he said to Lucio. trying to argue
him into taking off his coat. "Not
too mucha hot" he replied. and,
folding his arms, he almost cried.
