vania (Mr Penrose)" At once Sen
ator Penrose addressed the Senate,
and said that he could plead an abb
and Senator Johnston made hating
explanation Then Senator Works,
(Insurgent) of California arose to
confirm what Senator Bristow had
said. Upon this Senator Penrose adj
mitted that he had had the converse
ton, also admitting that he did not
intend to vote on the bill.
This was the first important occa-
sion on which Penrose, elected floor
leader last spring Of the Republican
party in the Senate, has exercised his
leadership. In certain reactionary
newspapers his action has been com
mended as 'shrewd tactics and 'clev-
er strategy'-but as a matter of fact
1t was the cheap device of a ward
leader in city council. 1t demand
ed that Senators of the United States
should dodge into cloakrooms to
avoid meeting an Issue fairly. Sew
eral of the ADLER men among the
standpattsrs would have no part in
this cheap trick--notably men like
Root of New York and Cullom of
| Illinois.
Senator Cummins of Iowa invok-
ed the rule of the Senate which re-
quires a member when present either
to vote or to give his reason for not
voting. Senators Penrose and Oliver
gave their reasons (Lorlmer, Steven
son, Smoot. Guggenheim and many
other senators having disappeared
| from the Senate) and vote was ia
ken to see II they should be excused.
This vote was highly significant. All
the standpat Democrats and all the
stand-pat Republicans who were in
attendance voted to excuse Penrose.
but the Insurgents and a number OF
the progressive Democrats voted not
to excuse. The progressive Demo
Gratis so voting with the progressive
Republicans were Chamberlain of
Oregon, Kern of Indiana, Lea of Ten
nessee, Pomerene OF Ohio. Reed of
Missouri and Shively of Indiana"
The moral OF 1t all is that the
Republicans before they can be again
fully trusted In national affairs must
come back TO the interests of the
whole people instead of the great az
gregations Of capital. while the Dem
ocrats must dissolve their back.door

The great rank and hle OF both
parties is honest, sincere and patri

and determination and the judgment
to send men to Washington who have
the moral courage TO sink party rival
RES and selfish interests and enact
laws for the benefit of the whole
country and its long suffering peo
pie.

CHAMP CLARK TO ANSWER TAFT
Speaker Says President CARRIED Facts
In His Address

Quincy, ILL.,, Aug. 2S.-Champ Clark,
Speaker of the House of Representa-.
tives, who is here, did not learn until
late today of President Taft's keynote
speech in Hamilton, Mass, on Satur-
day.
President Taft will hear from me,
for / am going after him with hammer
and tongs," said Clark. "The Insur-
gents can take care of themselves but
| will reply for the Democrats"
Clark Is exercised about the presi.
dents speech and the speaker intima-
ted he will have something to say
about Taft and the Tariff Board in
particular, of the members of which
he is said to entertain not the most
favorable opinion as to their expert
ness on tariff affairs. Clark says Taft
was unfair and garbled facts in his
Hamilton address.

Massachusetts speech, in which he
attacked La Toilette and his insur-
gent associates, who worked with the
Democrats for tariff revision, Senator
Cummins Of Iowa has come out in an
interview for La Toilette for presi-
dent.
Senator Cummlns made his pro-
lnouncement recently and as he reach
ed Iowa after the close OF the session
A copy of 1t reached here today. His
declaration for La Toilette is of the
more moment because the Wisconsin
senator has been trying to get Cum
Minis to take an active hand in pro-
noting the La Toilette boom. Sena.
tor Cummins has hitherto refused to
do this. Moreover, Cummins has been
looked on himself as a presidential
aspirant. Criticising the vetoes OF
the wool bill and the free list bill by
the president, Senator Cummins ex-
pressed disapproval Of Taft for re-
nomination. He said he did not con-
slider Taft took the progressive Wow
and that the president was out of
harmony with the political views of
the rank and file OF the Republican
party.
Commenting La Toilette as his
own personal choice for President and
criticlsing Taft, Senator Cummins
said Personally am opposed to
President Taft. If had my way, he
would not be the choice of the Repub-
lican National convention and If It
were possible for me to prevent 1t,
do not hesitate to say that | would do
So La Toilette stands for legislation
which Is perfectly safe and sane, not
withstanding the efforts that have
been made by his enemies to discred
III him as unsafe.
Senator Cummins did not go 10 the
point of declaring he would lead a
fight in Iowa to wrest the state from
Taft, but the interview he has given
tout will undoubtedly prove a signal
for many of his followers to busy
themselves in behalf of La Toilette.
Senator Cummins said he saw little
hope for tariff legislation next winter.
He saw plenty of indications that a
Democratic House would refuse to
follow any suggestions from the presi-
dent on the tariff"

Let Them all Alone.

In all the large cities there are So
called brokerage concerns and indi.
yiduals that are engaged in defraud-
ing the public by selling. worthless
investment securities. In New York
city the other day the postoface au-
thorities arrested three members OF
a firm charged with obtaining during
the past few years, more than ST.
100000 by the selling Of worthless
stocks Of oil and mining companies.
This concern advertised largely, and
followed up its advertisements with
alluring prospectuses sent tarough
the mails. It was such use Of the
mails that enabled the PostotEice de-
partment to act. In every ccrnmun-
fty there are honest, hardw crking,
industrious men and women pos
sessed of few hundred dollars, per-
haps. who want suddenly to become
rich and are constantly seeking the
get-rich-quick route. They read al
Turing advertisements, bite the bait,
and are soon parted from their mon
ey for which they have taken in ex-
change beautiful engraved pieces of
parchment and large promises. They
do not know that no more than one
oil company in so ever makes dol
lar, or more than one mine in 800
ever pans out. But such are the
facts. It was P. T. Barnum who
said that a fool was born every min
ute. He may have been right. But
for the fools some men In this world
would never get a living. 1t was Bar
mum who also said that the people
like to be humbugged, and they do
when they know they are being hum
bugged, but they always resent being
played for suckers, though they swal-
low bait, hook, sinker and all. Our
advice to all is to let these get rich
quick concerns alone. Everyone of
them are frauds and humbugs. If
you have money to invest do not
invest it with strangers, but with
people you know and in home en-
terprises.

been evaded If proper fire escapes
and means of egress had been provid-
ed. That they were not was due
either to gross negligence on the part
of the civic authorities in not en-
forcing the law involved, or to the
cupidity of property owners who were
willing to risk the lives Of their fell
low creatures rather than install
safety appliances. Not unlikely the
blame should be distributed, but
nothing can bring to life those who
suffered so horrible a death or re,
move the anguish of mind from those
who are bereaved. Evidently in all
such buildings insufRciently supplied
with fire escapes and used as the
building was used where the disas-
ter happened, the thousands Of en-
p1oyees take their lives in their hands
when they go to work. How is it
right here at home? Are all our
public buildings properly fixed TO
safeguard human life?

THE AWAKENING.

How little do we know or care
OF Poverty and Want,
Until abroad those creatures fare
TO pause, red-eyed and gaunt,
Upon the threshold of that way
Where Plenty guarded yesterday;
And then to cast their venomed darts
All stained with blood of men,
To hidden corners Of our hearts
Again and yet again,
How little do NE ever feel
OF sympathy for Woe,
Till Sorrow as a thief doth steal
Our joy and tread it low,
Or send to US some bitter shame
To tarnish an unblemished name,
Or yet Despair on vulture wings
Doth fall upon the heart,
And fercely tear the tensioned
strings
Till blood of life doth start.
And so it is we better learn,
The height of joy when we
Through our own SORROWS may dis
Germ,
The depth of misery.

Why Men Don't Go.

A preacher in a distant city some
time ago invited full, frank and free
answer from the average man s
standpoint why men do not go to
church and taking these answers as
a text, he preached series of SER
mons, inviting the non-church goers
to come and listen to the discussion.
This was a very practical way to
handle situation that doubtless
confronts the churches in all the
cities, says the Augusta Herald. The
question is "Why is it that more
men do not go to church," Who
can answer it.
The Herald asks, "WAat do you
imagine is the percentage Of the male
population in Augusta who do not
go to church and what is the reason
why more men in Augusta do not
go to church? The problem is one
that ought to interest both the men
of the city as well as the churches
of Augusta"
The question Of non-church at
tendance generally, and the non~at-
tendance of church by men partic-
ularly, has been a subject Of dis
cussion for several years in the news
papers and magazines of the coun-
try. That men do not so to church
like they did some years back is a
fact patent to all. VIII ,an tell why
such is the case.
