First of all, as I hear the talk
among the workers in the party, ev-
erywhere I have been, there is sim
cere desire to avoid selecting for COM
mittee leadership men who are con-
trolled or dominated by ambitious in
dividuals. The call is for chair
man, who, in himself, embodies quail
tiles of leadership that will induce
the party TO unite and follow him.
| do not know who the mans is. If
| did know his name / would not
mention it. But there is positive de-
mand for a positive organization that
will work for the party and that will
refuse TO permit any man or set of
men within the party to issue orders
on behalf of personal interests.
Republicans are tired of handing
over congressional seats to demo
Gratis. They have become convinced
that they have been making gifts to
the opposition all along the line.
They see no good reason why they
should continue to do so. They are
alive to THE mistakes made In the
past and they are alive to political
errors as they are made from time to
time by overanxious individuals who
may aspire to leadership. Republi-
cans are talking good politics, and
locally, in 1.-THE counties, they are
playing the game sensibly, and with
an eye to victory in 1912. If they
are encouraged properly they will go
ahead and win. The democrats have
paved the way"

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION
AN AMAZING SITUATION.

The unenviable POSITION of the
democratic House. lust adjourned, Is
forcibly stated in this recent edi-
torial from the Indianapolis Star.
1t is known that the President Will
veto the tariff dickers of the present
session. 1t is known that even If he
should permit them TO become law,
they would be short-lived, for new
bills will be brought forward and en-
acted this winter. In view Of the
absolute needlessness and futility of
these tariff proceedings, the dicker-
ing and bargaining between Under
wood and LaFollette becomes so
foolish and mischievous as TO APP
proach a national scandal.
Probably not single one OF these
rates that these frlcksters are joe
keying over will stand, probably
there is not one of them that de-
serves on its merits TO stand. They
represent no conclusions of study
and conviction. They are not the
rates that Mr. La Toilette s investl-
cations dictated, they are not the
rates produced with ostentatlous
laboss by Mr.. Underwood's COM
mittee. They are mere .esultants
OF political haggling for confessedly
discreditable ends of personal and
factional ambitions. They are no
more fitted to become the law of the
land than If the figures had been
drawn by a blindfolded man out OF
a hat.
Such reckless playing with great
issues Is thing almost unbelleve-
able. 1t makes joke out OF tariff
reform. and repudiates every ayow-
ed principle OF protection or revenue
as expressed by either Republican
or Democratic authority. More
than this, it basely betrays the de-
sires of the American people toward
our manufacturing industries; fol
while nobody wants the wool grow
err or the wooden manufacturer tt
enjoy inordinate or unnecessary pro
lection, neither does any honest o.
thoughtful man want to see thes'
important industries made the foot
ball of wanton, haphazard and chang
ing tariff legislation. This temper
ary guesswork and thimble-rigg1n:
type of tariff is as indefensible a
the Payne-Aldrich wool schedule 1T
self. In preventing this travesty Of
tariff reform and this wanton har

STANDING BY HOME INDUSTRY

This week a representative OF TT.
Wavne glove manufacturing concern
was in Plymouth to sell OF his wares.
He usually had received some good
orders from Plymouth merchants,
but this time he got not a bite.
Why? There's reason"
Plymouth has a glove factory of
its own. The manager, Mr.. Dono-
chine. had so well satisfied the mer-
chants with both good goods and
right prices. that they told the FIT
Wavne man they were rot going
TO buy a single glove this year from
anybody else.
< This was the story of the TT.

good to the ear.

Faid Fire Department.

1t is the purpose of the ctlncil to
put in a new, paid, and up-to-date
fire department. 1t will have paid
service, thoroughly efficient and
equipped for every duty. The water
works system is also to be extended
and perfected by complete system
of mains surrounding the city on all
sides as has already been stated in
the Republican. All the old wooden
mains will be taken up and replaced
with iron pipes. Many of the four
inch mains will be taken up and re-
placed with six inch pipe, the
smaller ones being usedfor farther
out toward the edges of the city.
In reporting their estimates the
committee said: "We estimate we
will have enough money from the
fall installment of taxes, and that
will be coming in from various
sources. and on hand. to pay the
running expenses Of the city for the
year 1912. We have money enough
