Mr.. Hows's Good Roads plan.

To the Editor Of The Times
II Mr.. Howe enjoys repairing roads;
II he has enough strength left after
hard and long days work and IL ne
feels 1t his duty to do this repair work
during his rest hours, that is his own
business. Civic pride is a fine thing'
but is 1t quite right or kind OF him
to ask working men to do, without pay,
work which rightfully should be done
by the city? Would Mr.. Howe Do
brave enough to address this appeal to
a soft-palmed millionaire. lf not, theh
II Is unjust to address II TO these
poorer men. These men have already
toiled all day and We know tnat al,
work and no play makes JACK ouIi
boy" When working men ana wo.
men have performed their days TASK ~
Is neither just nor humane TO persuaue
them TO do more manual labor Iney
have already had their NIL or naru
work. II Is like the request TO the
Israelites TO make bricks without
straw" for they are told to do work
for which they have not the necessary
strength. Perhaps these men are
making payments on their homes anu
for this reason as well as other gooa
reasons, they have to economic anu
probably they have insufficient nour-
ishment most OF the time as well as
being none too warmly clad nor well
heated In winter. Perhaps some Oh
these men are almost at the point
where they feel that they must give
up the fight for their home, when 10
cap the climax, this request reaches
them to go out because they are poor,
and repair the roads. Such requests
generally drive a poor man or woman
to religion or to drink, but generaliy
TO the latter. We would be too ,umio
to ask a rich man to do the work, ou'
we ask tired toiling man to DO IL
Is II fair?
II the ''ciyic pride" Of citizens Is re
quired to temporarily improve these
roads. suppose We get a gang OF the
idle rich on the job. II might make
men OF them. Or suppose we ask
crowd OF bankers, ministers, editors
lawyers, etc, TO undertake the work
They could have lot OF fun WINE
working because they are seldom pny
sicaly over-weary and II would save
them the trouble of taking gymnastlt
exercises until the work on the roads
were completed.

WHAT HELPS THE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY

Speaker Clark is pluming himself
greatly on the record OF the last
Democratic congress. He says that
II has made an impression on the
people by its passage of much con
structive legislation" Other Demo
cratic congressman voice the same
opinion.
II Speaker Clark and his political
associates in congress mean that the
record Of the last session has cleared
the way for Democratic success in
1912, they should get rid of the error
at once. That record is, 1t is true,
not an unworthy one. But II Is not
a record of accomplishments such as
make party invincible.
The truth is that the most import
ant things that were done for the
Democratic party during the recent
session were not the passage OF tariff
bills doomed in advance to the presi-
dental veto. They were the scatter
ed assertions OF the personal and
political independence Of the leaders
In the face of the familiar Bryan die
tatorship.
When Speaker Clark and Mr.. Oscar
w. Underwood went on their way
calmly and drafted and managed A
tariff bill as they thought the circum
stances required. in spite OF Mr..
Bryan's manifestation Of displeasure,
they did more to arouse confidence IN
the Democratic party and Its present
leadership than the passage OF any
number OF foredoomed tariff bills
could have done.
When Congressman Underwood
rose in his place In the house OF rep
Iiesentativcs and showed that Mr..
Bryan had slandered him, and when
other leading Democrats showed their
independence by bearing willing tes-
timony TO the falseness OF the Ne
lbraskan,s accusations, the Democratic
party got still another lift.
In brief, insofar as the Democrats
In the last session Of congress show
ed that they had seen the newer or.
der of things In their party-nao
realized the significance OF the sweep
ing Democratic victories In the great
pivotal states OF the nnion-to thar
extent they helped to rouse and main
tain the public confidence which Is
essential to victory.
Under Mr.. Bryan's dlctation, we do
not hesitate to say, the party might
have passed and secured the presi.
Dental dissent from any number Of
tariff bills without doing anything
more than unsettling the peoples
confidence in its reasonableness and
Its purposes. The last state would
have been worse than the first. Hall
the fruit OF recent victories would al
ready have withered on its lips.
The great. the important, the neces
sary thing for the Democratic party
ls to give yet further proofs that the
Significance of recent victories is full
lly understood-thatt the present lead
ers are men who can and will lead

clires to continue dashed to the

In his veto OF the wool bill Mr.. Tart
spoke OF the popular desire, which
fully recognize. for reduction or duties
believed TO be excessive" That desire
he had encouraged by promising hon.
est, downward revision No sooner
was the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill pass
ed than he condemned the wool sched-
ule as 'indefensible,"
In his Winona speech Mr.. Tart said:
I agree that II Is too high and that
IL ought TO have been reduced" 1T
Is the one important defect In the
present Payne Tariff bill" and Il am
quite willing TO admit that allowing
the woollen schedule TO remain where
