A BAD BLUNDER.

In the Jubllatlon of the Democrats
over their good work during the extra
session of Congress, the Detroit Free
Press brings forward a matter of omis.
sion that, though it may be called a
minor affair is really one of considerable
consequence, IL appears that the Dem.
ocratlc House. while pluming itself on
things done by it, failed in a matter
where action was earnestly desired by
the country 1t made no appropriate
to hnlsh the work of raising the Maine
In Havana harbor. Sufficient appro.
Priaflou had been made to get on with
about half OF the work; but further
appropriation was needed in order 10
hnlsh 1T. The appropriation ought TO
have been made ut the extra session of
congress- otherwise the money already
spent is wasted. If the work of nm.
covering the wreck must stpp- the bod.
les still entombed in the wreck must
remain without proper intermeut. the
secret OF the cause Of the disaster can
not be determined. All this, AS the
Free Press Justly urges, is blot upon
the record Of the Democrats at the cx.
ira session. No explanation is made
OF the neglect TO make the needed
appropriation. 1t appears, in fact, TO
nave been matter of inattention rather
than economy, for, surely economy
would not prompt the omission Of an
appropriation like this, for that sort of
economy wastes the hundreds of thous
ands of dollars already expended in
pushing the work as far as il has pong,
AS our contemporary Justly saws. '"try.
ing TO save money when an euterprisc
Is undertaken is, never wise when il
involves the loss of money already
spent, as it docs in this case. And
penurious parsimony with public money
where sincere public wish is involved
is poor policy at any time"
All this is good reasoning and good
sense. Tho appropriation ought Ger.
tainly TO have been made: but as il
was not made. We trust that the War

PROGRESSIVE ORGANIZATION.

Some time ago there was organized il
Washington what was called the Pro
gressive League by insurgent Repub
lcans. The movement was killed, how
ever, by clubbing it Bourne Saliva
tion Army But, not in the leas
daunted by the failure of the first ef
fort to form an effective organization
a new start has been made, this time
evidently on a solid foundation. Pro
gressive Republican headquarters hay,
been opened in Washington under The
auspices of Senator LaFollette s friends
and tho organization is enthusiastic and
hopeful in the highest degree,
1t is from this source that comes
most of the real criticism of President
Taft. The record of President Taft
with respect to the tariff, his utter.
ances in explaining during his cam
paign speeches in 1908 that the tariff
revision would be downward, his in.
consistency in signing the tariff bill
of 1909 which revised upward instead,
all this is presented to the country in
various forms and in earnest, pressing
effectiveness. 1t is shown that Presi-
dent Taft held aloof from the tariff
revision of 1909 until it was too late
for him to make any impression upon
the standpatters. and that his promises
came to nothing; his efforts, SO far as
he made any efforts, were failures.
This snpineness of the President in
1909 when the standpa;ters were revers-
ing the pledge of the Republican party
as interpreted by him, and putting him
personally in the attitude of bctraying
his own campaign utterances and
pledges, is contrasted sharply with the
President S eagerness and his activity
IN urging the reciprocity agreement
upon Congress, and in his activities dur.
ing the last session of the SIxty-first
Congress in various forms. 1t is asked
if President Taft intended TO interfere
with Congressional legislation. why he
did not interfere earlier in the tariff
legislation of 1909, so as to make him
self Influential in bringing that tariff
in line with the pledges of the Re

der of his young wife He left the fOl-

Il, Henry Clay Beattie, Jr, desirous
of standing right before God and man,
do on this 29d day of November, 1911,
confess my guilt OF the crime charged
against me. Much that was published

that l am at peace with God and am

Beattie's confession was followed by
the following statement by the attend
ing ministers:
This statement was signed in the
presence Of the attending ministers
and is the only statement that can and
will be made by them.
"Mr Beattie desired to thank the
many friends for kind letters and ex-
pressions OF interest and the public
for whatever sympathy was felt or ex-
pressed"
The confession evidently was made
at the eleventh hour, when Beattie (
finally became convinced that all hope |

announced that Beattie had said he
would not confess.
This was ascribed to the fact that
Beattie desired to spare his father the
blow of admitting his guilt after his

aged parent There was a fight be-
