this scramble for afree which would
lead Democratic candidates to betray
their party principles for the sake of
catering to the discredited element in
the old Republican machine.
The Press is not appealing to any
Democrat who believes in the principle
that the end justifies the means. But
it does appeal to those who believe
there are vital principles at stake in
this campaign to do what this journal
and what hundreds of thousands of
Republicans have done, throw party 20
the winds and stand for principle, re-
fusing to support any scheme which
seeks to make of the same men, at the
same time, the candidates of the Dem
ocratic party and of the reactionary
Republicans.
Either the Democratic party is
party of principle or of the graft OF
office. If there is nothing better IN
the Democratic party than a hunt for
soft jobs at any sacrifice of principle,
then the Progressive Democrats should
accept the welcome of the Progressive
Republicans to joint action with them
to set up higher ideals in the nation.
How Democrat who believes in
progressive principles can uphold this
unholy alliance passes understanding.
Imperial Valley press., 1912-11-01
NHR. LONGS CONTENTION

ANA 1t has been understood from
the beginning of his industry tina.
George A. Long has been barred by
the freight rates from shipping the
cured meat of this valley further west
than Cotton. That is, when he got
that far Los Angeles had superior
freight rates that barred the product
of his packing house, even against
products of the valley which had been
shipped to Los Angeles on the hoof
Now, Mr.. Long has taken the matter
before the state railroad commission
which gave hearing here yesterday
Chairman Eshleman sitting in the case
While this is Mr.. Longs case and
especially the case of Imperial, in
broader sense every person in the val
ley is Interested in the outcome. Mr
Long has laid the foundation of a great
business in Imperial and he has con-
tributed greatly to the welfare of the
valley from the fact that he has Gre
ated a regular market for the live
stock which the farmers wish to sell
in small quantities, but there was
limit on the growth of the business
in the fact that he has been barred
from making shipments from his pack
ing house to Los Angeles, where the
great demand is to be found.
The Press has also known of other
persons who desired 10 establish pack
ing houses in the valley, but did not
feel encourage TO enter the business
simply because of the freight discrim-
ination against the valley.
Apparently the Southern Pacific Com
pany is putting UP a strong opposition
In No Of
tn y are practically compelled to do
wherever their rates are attacked. And
yet, judging by former experience, the
Press does not believe this case will
be resisted to the limit. Whatever
criticism one may from time to time
be called on to offer against the South
ern Pacific Company, in fairness we
are always brought to admission that
so far as this valley is concerned, the
railroad has always, on fair presen-
tation, done the things which have
seemed necessary for the advancement
of the interests of the valley.
When the company comes to realize
as it apparently must, that it's freight
schedule is barring from this valley
a great industry which naturally be
longs here, we think the road will
cheerfully make the concessions that
are needed, even aside from the re-
duction which the commission may
order.
For many years to come, at least,
this must be a great live stock region,
and the Southern Pacific knows that
that community which ships the fin
ished product is the most prosperous
country, and for its own sake the
Southern Pacific must desire to see the
greatest possible degree of prosperity
in this valley, which means its influ-
ence must be put forth to aid the
shipping of finished products-packed
meat instead of meat on the hoof, for
instance.
Imperial Valley press., 1912-11-01

anxious TO support the best principles
presented in this campaign. If the
Press were a Democratic newspaper II
would be forced to face this condition:
Throughout the state the politicians
who formerly ruled the Republican
party are supporting the Democratic
candidates for president and vice-pres
ident, and the Democratic politicians
are doing everything possible to further
this alliance.
In the congressional district the
candidate for congress is repudiating
the tariff plank of his party as a bid
for the support of the reactionary Re
publicans, and those so-called Republi-
cans are doing everything to force his
election.
In the state senatorial district the
candidate of the Democratic party is
openly boasting that he is supported
by the discredited bosses of the Re
publican party in his district
If these facts were viewed by this
paper as a Democrat, how could IT
as matter of principle support any
one of those candidates?
Never in the whole history of Amer
lean politics was there worse debase-
ment of ideals than is presented in

The disciples like the rest of us were

He never forgets to provide our daily

made pharisees, and Herodian philos-
ophy that made Herod; that fermented

L. SIGNS.
What? Signs-wonder works O
as credentials, or evidences of divine
auth ority; (2) as symbols of ethical
and spiritual significance. To the spir-
itually minded the latter, "(2)" is suf-
ficient. and most valued; the non-spir-
itual are insensible to the celestial
import, and demand mere marvels of
physical demonstrations, stupendous
portents in the heavens above, or the
earth beneath. But the latter if given,
and they had been, would not have
changed their minds. because they
could not change their hearts

sees"-recall their character, their per-
sistent opposition, their characterize

demanded, none that would move them
Lk. 16:3D. The raising of Lazarus
only famed the flames of hell in their
hearts On. 11:46-53); the rising of
Jesus only kept it ablaze. (4) "And
He left them"-this is no incidental
phrase, but a weighty testimony. He
left them in their sin; in their hard
heartedness; in the purblnd edness;
