THE WOODROW WILSON
Ii A NOU EFT.

Governor Woodrow Wilson, invited
by the University of Wisconsin to de-
liver an address before the Social Cen
ter conference at Madison this Wednes
day evening, October %, will be ten
dered public luncheon in his honor by
the Dane County Democracy on to-
morrow, Thursday, October 90.
A cordial invitation to all Democrats
throughout the state to attend this
luncheon has been extended by the
COMMITTEES in charge. And the way
that messages have poured in upon the
secretary Of the committee, j. j. Mac
Manamy, accepting the invitation and
requesting seats, shows that If Democ
racy has been dead verify there be a
resurrection from the dead.
Democracy is very much alive in the
nation today; and Wisconsin Democrats
are never backward in upholding the
standard Of constitutional democracy.
In the candidacy OF Governor Wilson
there is that which harks back to the
best craftsmanship Of the fathers of the
Democratic party together with that
which IL alive and capable Of meeting
the manifold twentieth century needs of
this great country. 1t stands for u
leadership under which old true demo
Gratis who have stood these many years
for equal rights for all and special
privileges to none can see their joys of
good government fulfilled. Under such
leadership the party calls irresistibly to
the young men Of the country to enlist
in the struggle against the forces OF
selfishness which would despoiI the
state.

SHORT M Z MORIES.

The men who scattered abroad the
Stephenson money throughout Wis

lay the blame for their disbursements
upon the election reform laws Of recent
years must have short memories
There were fraudulent ballots before
there were official ballots, primary or
otherwise; and before the righthteous
decision In the state treasury cases
there were politicians In Wisconsin who
financed campaigns with money not
their own. 1t was the increment on
state funds. When those cases were
brought in court the practical poll
ticans who scoifed were not few. But
their soothing returned us n plague upon
their own heads. There are those who
now scott at attempts to eliminate from
elections the baneful influence of mon
ey. May their SOOTHING likewise come

Chicago, Oct 25.--A country bank

OF having received pay for his vote for
Lorimer, figured in 1909. He will be
subpoenaed.
The failure OF Mr.. Pavey to send on
the bank records became known at
the examination OF Former Repre-
Sentative Blair. Mr.. Blair, after de-
nying for three successive days week

for his Lorimer vote, was recalled to
shed further light on how he came into
possession OF the fourteen 500 bills
which he displayed while intoxicated
at ball game at Centralia on July
90 1909,
Before Mr.. Blair's finances came up
for consideration further evidence was
offered contradicting his testimony
when he said n week ago that he went

For Value Received.

Since teachers may attend the meet
ings of the State Teachers Association
without loss of pay, it is important
that the results of such attendance
shall justify the cost to the school dis
trict thus entailed. Superintendent
Mary d. Bradford of the Kenosha
schools last year carried out a plan
which is worthy of imitation by other
superintendent and principals She
asked that Kenosha teachers who at
tended the meeting of the State Teach
ers' Association should each be pre-
pared ON her return to talk for three
minutes in the presence of teachers,
members of the school board and
others on that feature of the meeting
which had been to her of most interest
and value. The discussions which re
suited aroused much interest; even the
timid teachers spoke with enthusiasm

PUSH THE TARIFF ISSUE.

Frank j. Rowan of Milwaukee sees
clearly the path of Democratic duty,
He would push the fight for tariff tax
reduction and trust the people. In an
able letter to State Chairman Schultz he
says;
''The signs of the times indicate that
protective tariff taxation is passing and
that it richly deserves to pass quickly.
II is unjust morally, unsound economi-
cally, and indefensible legally. 1t has
debauched elections and corrupted
legislatures. 1t has increased the cost
of living by destroying competition
from abroad needed to check the greed
of trusts and combines bred during the
last fifteen or twenty years under it's
corrupting influence. 1t has deprived
the average man of his just share of
the wealth he helped to create by tax
ing his food, clothing and shelter, and
IL has brought that condition predicted
in 1878 by the great Chief Justice Ryan
wherein organized wealth is marching
"not for economic conquest but for
political power"
with the cost of living advancing
faster than the price of labor, and
with the consumer paying war prices
for the things he needs, the issue in
1912 is so great that it rises mountain
high above the utilization of the average
man with any party. The greatest
good to the greatest number is the
proposition upon which Jefferson built
our party. and upon that proposition
rests the constitution of the Republic,
and no tariff, If avowedly for the pur-
pose Of protective tariff taxation, can
be supported in any court because it is
special privilege for the few Mt the ex
pense of the multitude to which the
average man belongs, and because it is
in conflict with the constitution under
which we live.
1.-The field is fertile and the oppor
tunity is here. The intelligence and
independence of the people were never
so high. Let us emulate the example
of the great Tilden in 1875 and in a
campaign Of education upon this
momentous issue carry the banner OF
Damocracy to victory

BANDIT ZAPATA DEFEATED
Mexican Government Wins Decisive
Battle Near Mexico City.

Mexico City, Oct. 25-The bandit
Zapata was defeated by government
troops in battle that lasted four
hours at Mipa Alto, in the state Of
Mexico, about an hour by train from
Mexico City.
The rebels retreated towards the
mountains in the state of Morales, but
burned three villages before they left.
This is the first decisive fight won by
the government. 1t is believed that it
will serve to drive the rebels farther
from Mexico City. Many families in
the states of Morales and Puebla are
leaving the country. 1t is said that
business there is paralyzed.
