"The Clarksburg Telegram. while
soundly proclalming its regularity,
takes the sensible view that Repub-
lican candidates in West Virginia
should accept all the honest votes
they can get, no matter what the
party name of the voters. The Tele-
gram Is both regular and right, In its
estimate of the case"
The foregoing appreciation Of the
Telegram's regularity and righteous
ness Is taken from the Huntington
Herald dispatch, which, by the way,
IS also rlghteous1y and regularly Re-
publican and which takes the occa-
sion in the same issue to point out
that the Republican party is suf-
ficently righteous and regular to re-
main true to itself anu 10 refrain
from any malodorous or entanging
alliances, as follows:
'In this simple rule lies the
safety of the Republican state ticket:
Let the Republican state ticket rec
ognize Itself as the Republican state
ticket, let its members recognize the
Republican party which made them
the Republican state ticket. Let a

That Guard PLANK.

:Reading the Democratic state
platform, one finds this paragraph,
remarkable, indeed, coming from the
source 1t doess
mo guard system should be al
lowed to supersede the power and
duty Of the state. 1t is the duty 81
the state to see that an ample and
efficient constabulary service shall
be maintained. I'VE denounce as un!
Just the present irresponsible guard
system"
When Democrats practise what
they preach, 1t will be time enough
for them to talk that way. The
plank is wholly inconsistent with the
practices OF large interests with
which the Democratic state bosses
are associated and no one knows it
better than those who come in con-
tact with the guards or who find
them thwarting them in the accom-
plishment OF things for the benefit
of labor.
1T may be that the state bosses
want the state to pay for the guards
their big business has and thus re-
lieve their companies from payment.
BE that as 1t may, it is apparent that
the prime motive is to delude voters
who have been victims of the guard
system as maintained by these big
interests. Thus, it is a most re-
markable plank in plat
form dictated by the bosses,

rejecting the Evidence.

That Democratic senator's recog-
nize the popular advantages which
the Republicans possess in their ad-
vocacy Of the retention OF the
tariif board is evidenced by three OF
them voting with the majority to
retain the appropriation despite the
action OF the Democratic majority
in the House eliminating 1t and by
the rest of them, under the leader
ship Of Senator Bacon, Offering a
compromise on congressional tar
if commission, declares the
Pittsburg dispatch, which, continu-
ing, says: &
This congressional commission
idea is, OF course, no better than the
old method of hearings by the
fnance committee of the Senate and
THE ways and means committee OF
the House, the senators and repre-
sentatives forming the commission
being named by those committees.
The whole value of the tariff board
is that it is body of experts who
will collect the data upon which
alone scientific tariff bill can be
based without regard to partisan OF
sectional aspects. 1t would be i'm
possible as it has been proved i'm
possible under the old log-rolling
method; for senators and representa-
tives to do this work as thoroughly
and impartially, because they have
neither the expert training nor the
absence of local and partisan inter
ests.
The Democrats have assailed Re
publican tariff-makers on charges oil
special interests, yet any one looking
over the tariff legislation proposed
by the House majority under Under
woods leadership will find Just the
same foundation for the same accu-
satIon. The only way to avoid this
is to have the facts and figures re-
garding the industries affected as
sembled by a non-partisan and ex-
pert board. This mas been MI.
Taft's position and 1t is unassailable.
To throw away the evidence gath
cred by the board and return
to the old haphazard methods of tar
if making, as the House has been
doing, is to go backward and not
forward, and give the lie IN action
to the professions which the Demo-
Gratis have for years been making
when out of office. The Democratic
platform promises that the tariff
policy OF the party will not injure
business. How is it ito know that
II it deliberately refuses the only
unbiased and reliable evidence OBJ
taipabie?
