THE DEMOCRATIC VIEW
POINT

BY S. STANWOOD MENKEN
Member of the Executive Com
mittee of the New York Demo-
cratic League.)
In the sense that a political
party is composed of men OF like
political ideas, l believe that a
new political party has been
born. It's members are in both
of the old parties, and in the alb
sence of the sincere adoption OF
progressive principles by one or
the other of the present parties
the organization of a new party
as such as to solve the problems
confronting US will be brought
about.
The Democratic party If true
to it's traditional principles should
be the progressive party, adopt
ing in the main the propaganda
of the progressives, much OF
which is Democratic in its origin
and fairly consistent with that
party's platform.
| trust that the Democracy will
recognize this obligation, but be-
fore this can be done the Democ-
racy will recognize this obliga-
ton, but before this can be done
the Democracy must face a serl-
Gus internal struggle.
That there must also be a new
alignment of party membership
seems clear. The growth of the
country, the facility for inter-
communication has lessened the
opposition to Capitalization to
such degree that greater fed
eral direction in many ways is
recognized as necessity anu
many Democrats as we'll as Re
publicans are in favor of it, pro-
vided it be surrounded with prop
err safeguards.
The tariff is now recognized as a
"Iocal issue" Ito borrow General
Hancock's famous phrase) to be
adjusted to with regard to gen
eral economic rather than indi-
vidual needs, and such being the
case there is little basis of dis
tinction as to principle between
the two parties, unless we agree
that the future will find US with
a conservative party represent
ing wealth and reaction, and a

progressive party responsive "
the needs of the hour, and it may
be a consistently radical party
without interference with legiti-
mate business interests.
The suggestion is now made
that Roosevelt, La Toilette and
others will convert the Republi-
can party into a radical party
and that when this occurs the
Democratic party will become
the conservative party, repre-
senting the so-called interests"
or privilege owning classes, who
will furnish It with the financial
means for victory at the polls,
and the intimation follows that
as now constituted these inter-
ests now regard the Democratic
party as the safer party for them,
a view largely taken in the last
New York state campaign by
men identified with important
corporations.
There is, however, a large
body of democrats who feel that
the party must not allow itself
to be controlled by the interests
and that it must drive the in
terests away from it, and that it
can only do so by adopting and
living up to a platform so pro-
gressive as to make any alliance
between the vested interests and
the holders of privilege within
the Democracy impossible.
In the internal struggle, how
ever, the Democracy has I'd
purge itself of these Democrats
for profit. and wether it is to be
the progressive party must de-
pend upon the result of this con-
test. To succeed in this endeav-
or we must recognize that the
problems suggested by the pro-
gressives are not only economic
and political, but have their basis
in matters largely ethical and
gravely personal.
The cry must only be for speci-
fic reasons advocated but for the
elimination of the men who stand
for graft and privilege. These
men are equally in force in both
parties. They work together or
separately as the interests may
dictate. They are distraction
lists to real reforms, and their
influence must be destroyed,
otherwise we shall have preten-
sions and palliatives instead of
remedies. The Democratic par
ties for the future must realize
that there cannot be any REFORM
meriting success so long as they
have a vestige of influence in the
party.
The extent to which both par.
ties in our great cities are con-
tIolled by the VIGOROUSLY unfit
and the power of the autocratic
rule of the bosses is too patent to
require discussion. In clearing
the way, however, for the adj
vent of a new party this element
must be primarily dealt with, as
it constitutes our gravest nation
al evil, the extent of which is
not limited to local mis- govern
ment or temporary wrongs to the
city, state or nation through
which the corrupting influence
radiates, but makes certain eco
nomic waste, saps national vital
ity, and destroys the potentiality
of American and Americans.
It might also be added that If

BANK PLAN
Independent Statesmen Come Out in

One Senator Declares Latest Propo-
sition Would Create Bankers

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1S.-The Aid
rich plan TO place the finances and
business OF the country In the con-
troll OF central bank is regarded with
disapproval by many senators today.
The "Old guard" stand with their
leader as usual. but independent SEN
ators hold the opinion that the Rhode
Island senator's scheme Of reform, rs
outlined yesterday, is not in the public
interest.
As the question Is not one for con-
sideration at this session, few sena-
tors took the time necessary to study
the plan and so were adverse to dis
cussing II for publication. Their i'm
preston based on the main features
Of the plan was that no such power
would be given the bankers by con-
gress. One declared II would create
q bankers trust.
No arrangements have been made
by the monetary commission for TAX
ing up the Aldrich plan and preparing
report TO congress. Their purpose
seems to hive the details of the
scheme thoroughly circulated through
out the country and thus to draw out
opinions OF all sorts of interests. The
sentiment thus developed will be TAX

tion OF a report to congress.

COLUMBUS, o., Jan. 1S.-The annual
report of President. Lewis, OF the
United Mine Workers. read before the
national convention today contained
q denunciation OF strikes as a means
Of organizing non-union mining dis
tricts and plea for continuation OF
the joint movement policy. In the re-
port he also denounced the Sherman
antitrust law, declaring that II Is like
other laws enacted for the protection
of the people, being in reality used
to deprive the wage-earners of their
rights to organize. He endorsed the
proposed employers LIABILITY law,
urged that charter be granted the
Western Federation of Miners In the
American Federation of Labor, and
that II be amalgamated with the Unit
ed Mine Workers of America.
Much of the address dealt with
complications resulting from factional
district fights. but despite internal
strife, President Lewis pointed out
cause for congratulation In the fact
that there are now 350,000 miners EN-.
ployed under joint agreements that
provide the highest rate OF wages ever
paid the mine-workers OF the country.
AS evidence Of strength, he pointed
out that I'm March, 1910, per capita TAX

ITALIAN HELD AS
MURDER SUSPECT
Police Believe Vito Matrageno Knows
Something Of the Killing of Patrol
man Wilson in 1907.

Among the many recent arrests oi
Italians Is one which the police have
kept quiet and which Is OF much i'm
portance. Vito Matrageno, who was
gathered in, Tuesday, by Detectives
Tremonte and Boloni, is wanted on
suspicion OF knowing a whole lot about
the murder of Patrolman George H.
Wilson.
Wilson was killed by an Italian dur
ing disturbance In front of a re-
sort on Champlain-st., early in the
morning Of Nov. 13, 1907.
Matrageno. the police say, left De

name was brought in in connection
with the case at the time. The police
tried to get him then, but he had
gone.

Interesting details Of how The com

Rohncrt's court during the hearing OF
the case of the Frohlich Glass Co.
against the Independent Glass Co., a
New Jersey corporation doing busi-
ness in Plttsburg.
The Independent Glass Co. controls
the sale of rs glass factories, and in
1902 contracted with the Frohlich COM
pany to supply $4,000 boxes during
May and June. Not sheet Of glass
was delivered during that time. II was
testified, and as a result, Mr.. Frohlich
was compelled TO go into the market
to buy his glass. He then found that
the entire output Of the country was
controlled by three concerns, the In
dependent Glass Co., the Federation
Glass Co. and the American Glass
Co. The first two companies were
oyer-seld TO the extent of 10000 boxes,
and the American was In absolute
control of the situation. IL imnledi-
ately advanced the price 81 per box,
and Mr.. Frohlich was compelled to pay
that much more than his contract
price.
He then brought suit to recover the
difference between the contract price
and the market price. which is $4,000.
This, with the interest added since
1902, amounts to $4,000. The case has
been in progress for several years,
and has been to the supreme court
once.

, PORT HURON, Mich, Jan. 1s.--
Especially condition Of William

were rescued from an ice foe In
Lake Huron, after being exposed to

is not regarded as serious, although
Herbert may have to undergo amputa-

ers and who found themselves i'm
periled after battling with the ice
foes have been safely landed at Lex
ington.
They likewise suffered greatly from
the long exposure to the frigid
weather.
AS the two tugs and the life-savers
endeavored to reach the marooncd
men last night, a bonfire of pine
/ trees, leaping 100 feet into the air.
and a huge searchlight whose rays
penetrated bleak sections of the lake,
were used as guides to the rescuers.
AS the winds swept across the lake,
playing a shrill tune as 1t sped
through the pine trees along the
shore, a group Of men and women
stood around the bonfire awaiting
anxiously for news Of the fate OF the
fishermen. Others dashed up and
down the shore, gazing at the dark
ness beyond to obtain some clue OF
the men.
AS the hours sped by and the
tugs and life-savers slowly cut the dis
tance between them and those whom
they sought to rescue, the anxiety OF
the watchers on the shore became In
tense. About 3 o'clock this morning
after q night OF suspense that will al
ways remain vivid In the memories
of everybody In the region Of the
thrilling drama, the siren blasts of
the tug Diver announced that the two
men had been rescued A sigh oi
relief went up from those along the
shore, but there was still anxiety foI

been received that they, too, had
been landed safely, did the groups
along the shore disperse. The life-say'
ers were taken to Lexington.
