Governor Wilson took occasion
to repeat his criticism of Wednesday
evening OF President Taft n At
torney General Wickersham, going
into some detail.
"My relation to you is rather that
of teacher to pupil than politician to
voter, and ] would not come to you
as a partisan enthusiast" said the
governor. II am rather to tell you
OF soberness and truth. Party lines
are going to pieces In this country.
There IS q new analysis revealing it.
self in our affairs.
There is a difference between
those who move and wish to move
and those who do not care to move
at all. The progressives are in con-
troll of the Democratic party and
are not in control of the Republican
party. One party is ready to lead
and the other is moi. At the pres
snt moment the Democratic party is
ready to lead and act and the Re-
publican is not. The Republicans
are divided among themselves.
Used Politics In Business.
at has been necessary for men to
govern politics tn order to govern
their business successfully. In this
there was very little choice between
the Republican and Democratic par
tics. James Smith, Jr., was no more
Democrat than John Kean was Re-
publican. Their only atm WAS to
use their politics in business. Their
methods in controlling those whom
they nominated were to get them in
peculiar business situations. They
swould choke any man who dared
disregard their orders. They sub
scribed to Republican funds as we'll
as Democratic funds. Whichever
party was put in office would be un-
der some peculiar ~pecuniary obliga-
lions to them.
Progress is merely breaking UP
such practices as have been going
on in Atlantic county, I smile when
they, call 1t radicalism to be pro-
gressive. The Republican platform
ciaims credit for the corrupt prac-,,
tees act. 1t is true that a Republic
can introduced this act, but he was
careful TO remove every tooth In 1T.
Do you think that when ! speak of
the Republican party / speak OF Re
publican voters? Certainly not. !
am speaking Of the men who have
misled and depraved them
Poor Choice in Essex.
Oh realities, and a reactionary Of
those things that have become
ghostly unrea1ities. Progressive
Democrats have already beeh nomi-
mated In every county but Essex.
Essex now has lis choice between a
crowd Of Democrats who have de-
eIined to be progressive and Repub-
Itcans who stand pat. The fndepenu-
ents there Will have to go fishing on
election day.
