TAFT VISITS HARTFORD.
The President Attends the Connecticut
state Fair.

Hartford. Sept. THE visit of President
Taft in this city and the state fair at
Charter Oak park today brought an i'm
mense throng of people hither from every
part Of the state the day having particu-
lar significance to them, as it is the first
time that a chief magistrate has been the
guest of an oId-fashioned exhibition of
the products of the farms of this state.
The disapproval of the position of the
president on reciprocity by the executive
committee of the state grange which has
a very strong hold among the Connect
cut farmers and the fact that that COM
nittee would not make the day of the
presidents visit Grange day, also has kin
died an interest in the event.
The program was for short parade
through the city streets to the new state
library building on the southern side of
Capitol hill, where a state luncheon had
been spread, the guests numbering some
IS representatives of the states official
business and political life. Business
houses along the streets were hidden un-
der folds Of bunting and flags.

In speaking to some of the prom
iuent Democrats OF California, Gov
ernor Woodrow Wilson, OF New Jer
sey made the following statement:
ut is interesting to me as a Dem
ocrat TO note that, while We have had
a, great deal OF talk about insursenti
republicans we have heard very III
tie about insurgent democrats In
surgents are those who throw OIL
authority. 1t must be that the insui'
gent Republicans are throwing OH
their authority OF the major portion
OF their party, while Democrats are
Tree to be progressive without being
insurgents. 1t would seem that to be
progressive is not to defy the gener-
al authority of their party colleagues,
| should like to believe that this
meant that the Democratic party as
whole is naturally progressive, and
that it is easier, through the instrL-
mentality of that party, to accom-
plish the new purposes OF the day
tnan through the fundamentally OF
the Republican party.
Governor Wilson is right The In
surgents are kicking against the fun
damental principles of their own par
ty. The Democrats have always op-
posed sucn principles. 1t Is the Dem
ocratic party that deserves the credit
OF awakening the public conscience.
Every principle that the Republican
party advocates nationality as pro
Lressiye" was advocated years ago
by the great Commoner of Nebraska
SO it will be seen that if the peo-
pie expect any remedial legislation
along the lines of progression 1t
can be more easily secured through
the Democratic party than through
the Republican party. Nine-tenths
Of the Democratic party is progress
slve" while three-fOurths OF the Re
publican party is reactionary. All
that desire legislation in the inter-
ests of the whole people should act
with the Democratic party. The Re
pulicans will nominate Taft, a reac-
tionary; the Democrats will nomi-
nate progressive" There Will
be realignment of parties to Ger
tain extent. The Democrats will
represent the people and the Repub
lican party will represent special
privilege"
