How LeFollelts = Different.

In reply to Standpat New York Suns
attack on LaFolIette, Life says He
seems to have paid for Office by work
ing about sixteen hours day year in
year out for the Outs against the ms.
The difference between his "virtuous
pretenses and long distance eloquence"
and those of the regular and authorized
machine politicians with whom he has
contended, has been. apparently, that
he has been incorrigible addicted to
making some OF his pretenses good.
They tell us he has changed and bet
tered many laws in Wisconsin: in the
senate we remember how he fought
the Payne bin, and he speaks in his au-
photography Of fighting many other bad
bills. If we follow the autobiography
we shall doubtless get fairly COM
plete record OF his good political deeds
lie is an aggressive grasping person
who likes power, but when he gets It
he does something with it, and here
the point il is usually something that
needed to be done. He likes politics,
not as Murphy likes politics, because
it's a good thing, and a condition pre-
cedent to personal enrichment but, APP
parently, because government interests
him, and because he loves to poke laws
and other obstacles between the self !
selected heirs of the earth and the in |
heritance they coyet.

WALL STREET is alarmed at the re-
markable strength of the movement to
nominate Senator LaFollette for the
Presidency Big business has determ-
ined that Senator LaFollette must not
be nominated. and it has reached the
conclusion that President Taft must
not be nominated. 1t is therefore pre-
pairing to bring out candidate TO dis
place the President The fact that
Wall Street is determined to defeat
Senator LaFollette at all costs is the
best illustration OF his remarkable
strength throughout the country. a
strength which is being demonstrated
every time a newspaper takes a poll.

MILITIA PAY BILL
NOT TO Be PRESSED
IN CONGRESS NOW
Neither Measure to Be Sub
ject of Partisan Action
Next Session.

The Pepper bill for Federal pay for
the organized militia. will not be press
ed In the House this session. But it
will be put on the calendar, and the
way will be cleared for action on II at
the regular session next winter.
1t Is expected the House will pass It,
and probably the Senate, at the regular
session. 1t has been wisely decided by
the House leaders not to treat II as a
partisan matter. Many Republicans
favor 1t as well as many Democrats,
and II an attempt Is made to make 1t
q Democratic caucus affair II may be
weakened instead OF helped.
The hearings before the Military Com
mittees of the two houses on Federal
pay legislation made a good impression
on the committees. The committee of
National Guard officers made a showing
that apparently strengthened the cause
of the proposed legislation. The efforts
of the guard officers were directed TO
showing the difficulty of getting men
out to drill and perform the duties Of
guardsmen without some compensation,
and to showing that the Federal pay
scheme was the cheapest route to the
organization Of an effective fighting
force without maintaining a large regu-
lar esta blishment.

BELIEVES IN TAFT
THOUGH ARRESTED
At WHITE HOUSE
Iowa Woman With Broken
Mind to Be Sent Back
Home.

with her confidence in the ability Of
President Taft to solve the troubles she
had come all the way from Iowa to lay
before him. still unshaken, Johanna
Buecking is now held at the Washing
ton Asylum Hospital She was arrest
ed late yesterday at the White House.
when she attempted to gain admittance
to the office OF the Chief Executive.
She soon will return home, the journey
to be made at the expense Of the Dis
trict, as the little woman had but a
few cents of her small store remaining
when taken into custody.
Following her arrest the police i'm
mediatelv wired Mrs. Minnie Neun1an,
a daughter. living in Mason City. Iowa,
of the detention Of her mother. This
morning the answer came back that
Mrs. Buecking was paroied patient of
An insane asylum at Mt. Pleasant, Iowa,
and had slipped away from home with
oLt the knowledge of her relatives
Where she had obtained the money to
make the journey thev did not know,
for they could not even pay the cost Of
her return.
None of these matters, however,
bother the little German woman who Is
here. When first arrested she felt her
position keenly, and pleaded with the
officers to permit her to go, but when
she reached the Washington Asylum
Hospital and was taken in charge by a
motherly nurse she forgot her troubles
and became composed.
According to the story told to the
White House police, the woman had
come from Iowa to see the President
about lands she had once owned there,
and which had been taken from her. She
was arrested by one of the Secret Serv-
ice men and then turned over to the po-
lice.

Taft ShortenS Sentence
Of Farmer Boy Banker

President Taft has commuted the
fve-year sentence of Herman Gems,
who was convicted in the United
States district court at Houston, Tex,
for embezzling national bank funds,
March Z, 1911. to one year and one
day.
The action was taken upon the rec
ioumendation of Attorney General
wickersham, who described Gems as
a. farmers boy who had been over
come by the temptations Of city and
he recommended, despite the fact
that the national banking laws had
been violated, that the sentence be
COMMITTED. The bank officials refused
to prosecute and declared Gems repu-
tation TO be good.
