A STRANGE SITUATION.

L VEN those who take only a casual interest in
IL matters political must be impressed by the
fact that, nationally speaking, politics are much
mixed For instance, there is only slight con-
nection between the republcanism of an Aldrich
or a Boies Penrose and a LaFoilette or a Senator
Clapp. The Wisconsin wizard is now curing
Ohio announcing his platform ana The -things he
stands for, which have won him success in his own
state, brought him into national prominence and
made him contender Of no mean abillry for-the
control of the party to which he belongs.
Among other things for which Mr. LaFollette
stands are the initiative and referendum and re-
call direct primaries, direct election of Senators
and all the radically progressive ideas Senator
Ciapp who recently spoke in Wilmington sup
ports the same principles which are also held by
9 large group Of western senators.
II is natural, then, to assume that this group
viii try TO have these ideas, or at least some Of
them, incorporated into the national platform Of
their party.
A Republican Of the Aldrieh or the James S.
Sherman stamp, for example, is opposed to every
one Of the political doctrines enuncated by La
Toilette. No one could listen to speech by
LaFollette and believe thar he was a Republican
as Repubhcansm was considered years ago.
After Mr. laFollette has finished his tour Of
Ohio, it Is stated that President Taft will also
make tour Of the state and Republicanism will
be presented from another point Of view.
view Of the Democratic situation dscoses
practically the same condition as that which exists
in the Republican party. There is one faction
which may be spoken of as representing the VIII
son-Brysn element and the other the Harmon-Wall
street element although the linking of Wall street
with Harmon may hardly be fair, for should Har-
mon be nominated and expect support from Wall
street, he would probably be buncoed just as Judge
Parker was
The so-called radical Democrats support many

ROME, Dec. 30-While the final out
come of Italy's occupation and annex
alton of Tripoii and Gyrenaica is still
problemstical, yet at the present mo-
ment there is nothing to indicate that
in the end it will not be success
full
In a general way, it is not believed
Italy will have to abandon the pro-
ject unless there would be an un-
usual combination of adverse circunl-
stances. Such a combination, for iI-
stance, might be L very serious epi-
demio Of cholera among the troops,
adverse intervention by the powers, a
series of defeats, all of which coming
at once might. and most likely would,
result in arousing a big opposition at
home. Such a combination, however.
does not seem likely at the present
moment, and it is unlikely that a
single one Of such a combination Of
adversitis would appear to be sufi-
cient TO force Italy to withdraw.
For the present, therefore, Italy is
making slow, but certain steps to-
wards the subiugation and occupation
of the territory. At the present time
the military lines about Tripoli and
the other occupied cities are being
advanced, and the Italians are seek
ing to force the enemy back into the
desert. These advances are being
successful, although not without loss
Of life to the Italians. but this they
appear to be taking as a matter OF
course
In the meantime the rainy season
has set in in Tripoh and the native
tribes are declared to be without the
necessary TO remain in the field. In
addition the sowing season is COM
ling on with total crop failure for
the past three years, it is believed the
tribes will desert the Turks and re-
turn TO their farms.
In addition, by the rigid patrol Of
the coast which Italy is able TO main
tain with its large feet, all supplies
and munitions of war TO the natives
are practically cut of. It is con-
ceded that the resisting tribes have

that such situation is illogical and that it points
to a new alignment of political parties so that
all who believe in one thing can be in one party
and all who believe in the other thing can be in

The leaders who see this as inevitable are fear
full Of taking the plunge for they think that it
would be necessary TO change the names of the

Tariff Not to Be Laid Aside.

Laying aside the tariff Is another
one OF the things that is good deal
easier said than done Even the New
York Republicans ought to know this.
and one may suspect that they do.
Nevertheless, in an appeal to the
malefactors of great wealth for cam
paign funds, they say:
Republican control (of the house
of representatives) assures the laying
aside of this troublesome (tariff)
question until nonpartisan commits
sion shall have obtained such data as
will warrant sound and permanent
adjustment by separate schedules"
The inference to be drawn by per
sons who do not want the tariff re-
vised is that the troublesome question
will be laid aside for long time, and,
no doubt, this inference Is justified
when the obstacles that confront that
same nonpartisan commission In OBJ.
tanning such data are considered. Al
the same time, the fact is that the
New York Republicans will not con
troll the next house, and that some
other Republicans hold views directly
at variance with those that commend
the Payne tariff law in the New Yorl
platform Realizing that the burden
which has been put on the people Ii
msnacing the very life of the party, {
large and increasing number of Re
publicans are by no means inclined t
invite annihilation by laying the tar

REALLY OPENED THEIR EYES
Parishioner's Remark, However, Left
Young Minister Somewhat In
the Dark.

Rev. Henry R. Rose in the Newark
Star tells the story of a young min
lister who had recently taken charge
of small parish in Vermont He
aspired to greater things and large
field, and in the hope that his reputa-
ton would travel beyond the limits of
the village to which he had been sent
he threw into his sermons all the
force and eloquence at his command.
He was, however, totally unprepared
for what was intended for a compli-
ment, but which was put to him in
such way that it left him In doubt
as to the real impression he had made.
One Sunday morning, after an espe-
cially brilliant effort, he was greeted
by an old lady, who was one of the
most faithful attendants at all serv-
ices. Approaching the young minister,
she said: "Ah, sir, we do enjoy your
sermons so much, they are SO in
structive. Do you believe it, we never
knew what sin was until you came to
the parish"

Westminster and his subsequent de-
capitation, after which his head was
placed in London bridge, as proof
of the fickleness of royal favor.
Other owners of the hall were An
tonic Bonvisi, an Italian and an tRti-
mate friend of Sir Thomas More, and
Aid. Bond, after whom 1t passed into
the possession of Sir John Spencer.
During his occupancy Of 1t Crosby
Hall was the scene of lavish enter
tainment. In 1t the ambassador Of
Henry w. of France, who was sent
on a grave political mission to Eng
land, was received and feasted and at
various times Queen Elizabeth and
Raleigh, Bacon and Shakespeare and
other great luminaries in the life Of
England, dined and danced, made love,
and hated, plotted and contemplated
and paraded their virtues and their
follies within its walls.
Crosby Hall afterward became a
Presbyterian meeting house and later
still a warehouse. In 1881 the ancient
house was restored and is today one
OF England's most interesting struc-
lures. Thousands of American tour
lists visit 1t annually.

"The recent warnings against imita-

that by comparing the fur Of live

be able to detect the difference in dyed

STARTED ON THE RIGHT PATH
Democratic Attitude on the Matter Of
Committees Is Greatly to Be
Commended.

The most promising thing done in
the Democratic party in many years
Is the agreement among the members
OF the house that there shall be a
caucus Of the members of the pres
ent house and the members-elect OF
the next house; that this caucus shall
choose the committee of the next
house at once-these committees to
name the other committees later
and that between the adjournment of
the present congress and the con.
vening of the next, the new ways and
means committee shall prepare defin.
ite plans for the revising of the tar
iff, schedule by schedule, or by spe
cific Items when expedient, beginning
with the most flagrantly offensive
provisions Of the present law.
The seeming unani- of the
Democratic house members on this
policy betokens high purpose, prac-
tical method and strong leadership.
1t gives promise Of greater efficiency
than the Democratic party has for
merly shown in approaching tariff
revision. 1t is especially commend.
able in Representative Clark, who
will be the next speaker, that he
adapts himself entirely to the de-

him by retaining the authority to ap-

Mr.. Clark shows himself bigger
man than he would be If he attached
Importance to any perquisite for per.

they have outlined for the time when
they shall control the house, they will
