The president says he is dis
appointed at the result in Can
ada. But his disappointment is
as nothing compared with that
he will experience in November,
1912.

If in the struggle to control
the party organization the dem
ocrats throw away the opportun-
ity to elect a president, one jack
ass will not be sufficient to EN-
blemize the party hereafter. An
entire herd will be needed.

Cornelius Roach, secretary

state auditor, two of the mem
sers Of the commission, held up
he publication of Tolerton's re-
port, for the reason that he dis
cgssed in it the partisan pro-
ceedings by democrats in the
legislature last winter. They
further objected to setting out

People have not forgotten
about that $61,5OO Sub-Treas-
urer Tom Atkins let get away in
his office and for which theft the
taxpayers, instead Of Tom and
his bondsmen, had to make good.
The report that Tom has let
$25, 900 cold cash get away since
he became postmaster at st.
Louis comes as no surprise.
Toms experience teaches him
these thefts preceded his promo
ton to fatter federal jobs. The
things are characteristic Of re-

Here are the views of three
great independent papers upon
the effect that the Canadian de-
feat Of reciprocity will have up
on President Taft:
Springfield, Mass, Republican
What had seemed to be Taft's
greatest achievement is sudden
ly struck dead, and all the strain
and labor of the special session
Of congress that grew out Of it
are gone to waste. He is left
with the burden Of his tariff
vetoes and his widened breach
with the insurgents Of his own
party while he has been depriv-
ed Of The one great success
which had crowned his career in
the presidency. The Canadian
result seems to throw our p6li-
teal situation into a degree Of
confusion that hitherto has not
distinguished il, and the condi-
ions which Mr.. Taft now con-
fronts must tax his abilities to

effect upon a tariff revision will
probably be direct and immedi-
ate. Finally in an effort to Sc
cure this measure of liberty and
enlightment in our most difficult
fiscal task the democratic party
will be more determined to at
tack the tariff citadel from other
and weaker sides. Unless the
tariff commission displays over
capacity to handle
rapidly the difficult investiga-
tons committed to its charge, it
win be swept away. President
Taft, who is committed so com
pletely to its success, may be in
extricably involved in its ruin"
Philadelphia Financial Bulle-
tin:
Defeat of the reciprocity treaty
in Canada, following the Taft
tariff vetoes and his late speech
es attacking the trusts, are now
looked upon in important finan-
cial circles as sounding the death
knell of Taft so far as reelection
is concerned. Much had been
hoped for from the reciprocity
situation. The peace treaties
too, would have helped, put
through, but even they are held
up. The accomplishments Of
the administration are viewed
as small, it is said in responsible
political circles"

Perhaps the most remarkable feature of
