II is perfectly certain that tho Demo
cratic battle of 1912 must be fought
upon the record and achievements OF
the Sixty second congress.
The landslide which elected six gov
errors and forty-seven congressman in
1910 was not an expression OF conf
dence In tn Democratic party. 1t was
essentially an expression of disapprov-
al and distrust of the Republica party.
AS result, the Democratic party came
into power distinctly on trial-to be
measured by it's achievements, to be
reckoned upon its worth, to be reward
ed for its fidelity. or 10 be con
demned for its failure to meet the pop,
ular will.
The record of the house majority in
the Sixty-second congress is without a
superior in our modern legislative an
nails for unity, Conference definiteness
and practical achievement The Dem.
ocratic party has never had such an
effective fighting machine. AS a re-
suit of the extra session, called by the
president to pass the reciprocity bill,
the Democratic majority passed swift
ly and smoothly. and yet with perfect
fairness and deliberation, every single
bill that its platform pledges promised
&c the American people. AS fighting
platform for the campaign of 1912 it
is faw,ess and complete. No party
ever went with better record to
ask the ballots Of the American peo-
pie.
And this coherent and effective Dem
ocratic majority is as much or more
the product of Champ Clark than Of
any other single individual 1t is
quite true that Oscar Underwood. as
chairman of the ways and means COM
mittee, has conducted the cause of the
majority on the floor with consummate
balance and skin. He has won and
deserves golden opinions for his cour-
age his calmness. his discretion and
his ability

But 1t is also true that the Demo.

been conducted with equal skill and eff.
fectiveness by Champ Clark. Since
John Sharp Williams withdrew from
the Democratic leadership, Champ

HULL BOY
Runs Away on a Train But
He us Sent Back
Home.

PARKBRSBURG, Nov. 9-Charles
HUI, six-year-old newsboy from
Clarksburg. who came to this city
on the Baltimore and Ohio accom-
notation train Wednesday evening,
was sent back to his home yesterday
evening. The boy was selling pa
pers around the depot at cIarksburg
Wednesday evening and got on the
train. He took a seat beside a wo-
man and after the train started the
CONDUCTOR thought he belonged
with her until the woman got off the
train at West Union On question
Ing the boy he ascertained that he
belonged at .clarksburg, and brought
him on here, turning him over to the
Baltimore and Ohio police author
tiles. The boy was cared for and
turned over to the city authorities.
A telegram was received at police
headquarters from Mrs. Martha
Childers. mother of the boy, con-
corning his absence. The little fell
low did not worry any over being
away from home, and had about
forty cents in change which he had
made selling papers.

Lirine Cost-Serviee Cost.

During the last year we have had
a great many Investigations, Tnunic-
ipal, state and national, Of the high
cost of living problem. During the
campaign Governor Wilson made
promises on various occasions that,
if elected, he would try to bring the
cost of living down. Just how he will
set about reducing the living expen-
ditures remains to be demonstrated
but whatever the next president may
attempt to do the prospect is,that the
investigations will go solemnly on
Now and then some investigating
committee does deliver some common
sense remarks concerning the in
creases in the cost of existence. The
theory that the food supply IS grad
uaIly but surely falling short of the
Increasing demand is easily disproved.
During the last ten years the crop
records OF this and other countries
Show that the food supply has in
creased in greater ratio than popula-
ton. But another theory is much
better sustained by the facts of COM
mon observations.
This last referred to theory is that
which places the increased cost upon
the extra service. Things are ordered
over the telephone and the delivery
service enters into the price of the
commodity. Foods are sold in par
ann paper and in alright packages,
and the cost is thus increased from .
to 40 per cent. The modern house
wife pays extra in order to crafty
her esthetic tastes, and, strange
though it may sound. the fancy pack
age service forces up the price even
OF the same things not put up SO.
Another reason for high prices is that
people in this prosperous age have
the money 10 spend and pay what is
asked without murmur. 1t fire.
quently makes difference to ask the
price before buying.

A 1Snliurfne Principle.

Perhaps the strenuous fight made
against Democratic representatives
IN Congress is partly responsible;
maybe the fact that the popular vote
Of the protectionists exceeded the
democratic popular vote by some
thing like a million has something
to do with it; likely the reports OF
the tariR hoard and the wranglings
over the Underwood tariff bills also
played an important part; and no
doubt the general prosperity of the
country also has considerable
weight; but no matter what the
causes or how many, it is neverthe-
less an interesting fact that Demo
cratic Eominees from Woodrow
Wilson down are practically Onant-
nous ia. their desertion OF the an-
Gent, dyed-in-the wool tarin princi-
pies OF the old Democratic party.
From All sides come the solemn as
auranees that all legitimate business
need fear neither interference nor
embarrassment from the new ad-
minfstration; that tariff duties are

Just how close the Democratic
president and the Democratic Con-

mains to be seen-the Democratic
party IS on trial and its tariff tam

be the Democrats will keep Their
