THE BOSSES. VICTORY"

Pueblo's Republican bosses have
won their last victory. BY shrewd
manipulation OF the state and county
comittees. by denying to the rank
and file the right to decide between
Taft and Roosevelt, by the lavish
use of money, by threats and intim.
idation. by the promise of political
Jobs, the old machine has once more
asserted its control over the organ
ization In this county.
But 1t Is a hollow victory 1t lie
merely another instance where the
bosses. in order to hold control OF
three or four federal officers and IN
obedience to the commands OF the
corporations that they so faithfully
represent. have traded the good OF
the party as whole for the contin-
ued dominance OF the organization
IT Taft should be nominated. by
repetition of the same tactics In
other counties and in other states
that were displayed yesterday In
Pueblo county. he will inevitably be
defeated. With him will go down
in defeat the local representatives
OF the machine he is using to force
his nomination upon the people.

WHAT CANDIDATES CLAIM

1t is interesting to note at this
stage of the presidential campaign
how the various big men mentioned
for the nomination Ior president by
the democrats are being doomed by
their respective managers.
Among the democratic candidates
the Wilson boomers are boosting
their man as the scholar in politics;
the fact that he redeemed the state
OF New Jersey and made 1t demo-
cratic state and his record as gov
ernor and the speeches that he has
made all over the country since his
election to that high office, being
the first political position he ever
filed. They also claim that Wilson
is progressive democrat of the
progressives and that he will draw
very largely from the progressive
republican vote in the coming cleo
ton If nominated.
The Harmon people are making
much of the fact that their candi-
date has redeemed the state of
Ohio, a rock-ribbed republican state
! heretofore, having twice been elect
/ ed governor for that great state.
They claim that he has saved the
/ NoNPos VI onlo itsS ludu
S25 100000 since he has been gov
ernor by increasing the tax rate OF
corporations and compelling the
railroads and others to pay their
| portion of the taxes, which they
have heretofore been lodging. They
claim that he is conservative and

DEMOCRACY IN WORK

In the struggle to live. demo
cratic methods must come. as surely
as in political government they are
in the main already here. An in-
dustrial oligarchy cannot remain IN
a political democracy. This means
either socialism or thoroughgoins
and constant industrial reform.
Take your choice. There is no
other way. Hence the importance

viding for a paid commission. to in
