MITCHELL MUST RETIRE
United Mine Workers Vote to
Amend Constitution.
Mitchell Will Have Until April First
To Make Choice Between
Organizations.

Columbus, Ohio, Feb AFTER de-
batting the question at two previous
conventions, the United Mine Workers
of America by a vote Of 1,213 to 967
decided to amend the constitution so
that John Mitchell, former president
of the miners. either will have to re-
sign from the Civic Federation or get
out of the miners union. The social
list element of the convention voted
almost sOlidly against Mitchefls con-
nection with the Civic Federation, as
did also the Lewis strength. Mitchell
organization he will cling. A year ago
he was quoted as saying that he would
not forsake the miners under any con-
ditions. Indianapolis probably will
land the next convention.
In a telegram to the convention,
John Mitchell from New York said the
action is a 'cruel injustice" and went
on to say: Il recognize the legal right
of the convention to enact this legis
lation and while / believe that an in
vestigation should have been made by
the convention before passing judg
ment averse to the National Civic Fed
Grafton and against me, nevertheless,
l submit to your wishes, although |
shall live in the consciousness that the
men and women at home for whom I
worked for so many years will not con-
cur in your conclusions"

A Vicious Law.

Editor Lucknow, in Baraboo Democrat
The democrats are not going to be sat
isfed with any bill passed by this legis
lature which does not absolutely wipe
off the statute books the present 20 per
cent law. This is the measure which
forbids the placing on the official ballot
of the candidate of any party who does
not receive twenty per cent of the votes
cast by the party Of which he is the
nominee at the last general election.
The bill to make the vote which any
candidate must obtain to get on the
party ballot at least 10 per cent of the
party vote in elections is no more liked
by the democrats than the 20 per cent
law. 1t is the principle rather than the
percentage of votes in which the dem
ocrats are especially interested.

FILA TOILETTE III a BEEN
A DEM AT.

Senator La Follette's reelection, last
week, called out favorable comments
from many distinguished men Hon.
Champ Clark, the Democratic leader in
congress, INDUCED in kindly retro
spective view of Mr. LaFollette's stormy
career; but concluded "Of course he
is somewhat misguided, otherwise he
would be in the Democratic party
True enough, Mr. Clark. But Mr..
La Toilette is more Of a thorn in the
flesh to the Republican party leaders
than though he were many Democrats.
If La Toilette had been a Democrat
the grand governing conspiracy OF pro-
lection would long since have taken his
political or official life in Wisconsin, by
calling him a free trader Until the
high cost of living began to hurt it was
generally fatal to entertain rational
views on federal taxation.
If La Toilette had been a Democrat
his agitation, the initial speech Of
which was delivered in Mineral Point,
even on the 4th Of July, 1897, - would
never have levened the whole body
polite, as it were, and given him con
troll of the state.
If La Toilette had been a Democrat
he would never have gotten into the
United States Senate and smashed into
smithereens the divine right and power
of hold-over in that body
If La Toilette haG been a Democrat
the Taft administration would have
carried the state against him. and it
wouldn't have cost 100000 10 do it,
either
If La Toilette had been a Democrat
sound would have been the sleep
of many whose slumbers he has dis
turbed.
In fact the thought Of La Toilette
being Democrat suggests striking sit
nations too numerous to mention.
1t is even doubtful whether Champ
Clark right down in his heart of hearts,
would really want the senior Senator
from Wisconsin to come over into the
Democratic party. 1t is in the Repub
lican camp,-where he was in the be-
ginning and now is, - that he can do
the most execution.

Democrats Show Sense.

Milwaukee Journal: The Democrats
in the house of representatives have
shown unusual wisdom in giving APP
proval to the tariff commission measure
and compelling the adoption of an
amendment to require the commission
to report to either branch of congress at
its request.
The tariff commission proposal may
be no more than an expedient for work
ing delay and multiplying offices, yet
even though it be deemed futile and a
needless burden upon the treasury
tactically the Democrats could pursue
no course better calculated to minimize
it than to permit its adoptions and then
go ahead and revise such schedules of
the tariff the duties of which are known
to be excessive.
AT best, the tariff commission can do
no more than supply congress with in
formation. 1t can not take the tariff
out of politics. 1t can not make it
scientific. We have, it is true, scientific
pugilists. And Jesse James was a
scientific train robber. 1t is possible
that the word scientific may be applied
to tariff act. But the most scientific
protective tariff that we shall ever have
is the Payne Aldrich act. 1t plucks the
consumer about as bare as it is possible
to pluck him. There is no science in a
revenue only tariff 1t is just a ques
ton of raising taxes, not, perhaps, by
ideal methods, but with the justification.
at least, that the revenue it exacts is
taken by the government for its uses
rather than by private interests in the
form of guaranteed profits.
If the Democrats in congress should
continue to show as much sense as they

FRIENDSHIP UNBROKEN
Taft and Roosevelt Attachment
as Strong as Ever.
And This from Secretary MacVeagh,
Member of the Taft Cab
net Circle.

Washington, Feb. 1.-The first state
ministrations as to the present rela-
lions between President Taft and Col
Roosevelt was contained in a speech
delivered by Secretary of the Treas
ury MacVeagh before the National
Press club here.
1T was foregone conclusion from
the start" said Secretary MacVeagh
that the strong efforts to break the
alliance between these two men would
fail The theory that the way to make
the Republican party strong is to
break it in little bits was too much for
the humor of these old friends
These were the concluding sen
fences of an interesting speech by
the secretary upon the personal char
acteristics of the president as he OBJ
served them through two years of
service in the cabinet. The secretary
of the treasury with surprising frank
ness acknowledged the presidents in
difference to his own political for
tunes.
Gov. Wilson, another speaker, ac-
knowledged that his hobby, if he had
any was the popular movement TO
change the machinery of our govern
ment from privacy to publicity. He
added with telling effect:
"The only reason that I have been
thought to ride a high horse is that I
was, during the greater part of my
life trained to talk and then took the
liberty of talking about what | under
stood was everybody's business"
This was the first opportunity that
the newspaper correspondents had
had to meet Gov. Wilson and hear him
sneak. He receievd warm reception

whether it shall be ratified or rejected.

have been manifesting, it is quite pos
sible that we may yet get revision OF
the tariff downward in the interest of
the consumer. 1t may not be scientific;
we may believe that it won't be, and it
likely will be badly tinctured with
politics, most questions which the
people settle at the ballot box are, but
we can stand it if the duties shall come
down and the cost of living be reduced.

Evils in NicknameS.

Hudson True Republican: Many
parents will allow nicknames to be
fastened upon their children without
protest, not considering how it may eff
feet them in after years. A very large
per cent Of criminals have had nick
names associated with them. No one
holds that the name had any thing to
do with determining their career, but if
they were given them in their homes
they show. the social strata the bearer
came from; and if they have been &C
CURED in after life through the famil
iarity of pals they tell heavily on the
kind of people one has associated with.
Don't allow yourselves or children to
become needlessly burdened with such
evidences of low life or bad associa
tions.
