Smyrna times., 1912-05-22

Now that the ground is cleared
and ready, why the delay with
Smyrna's proposed s25.O Federal
Building? Large bodies, like
Uncle Sam, move slowly, but maybe
a little effort on the part of "the
committee" with our representa-
tives in Congress, might result in
getting the work started this
spring.

MUST PERKINS GO?

George w. Perkins has lived long
enough to know that parties, like re-
publics, are ungrateful. He was the
financial brains of the Roosevelt pro-
gressiye movement. He organized it
With the same skill that he employed
ia promoting the steel and harvester
trusts. He was it's monetary genius.
Omitting the great sums he contribut-
ed to help Roosevelt win in the pri-
Iaaries, he gave $4,000 in an effort
to elect him. This was a meEe baga-
telle, as Manager Dixon told the SEN
ate investigating committee, when
ever We needed more money Mr.. Per
kins supplied it."
Now some of the progressive, not
ably Pinchot, Bristow, Garfield, Nor
ris Isador Straus, insist that Perkins
IS dead weight and must be thrown
overbosvd. II is declared that he cost
the party hundreds of thousands of
votes
There is truth in their contention.
Reforms cannot be brought about by
men who need reforming. Perkins
stands for the very things the people
want to get rid of. He is the head
and front of the offending. He is
Wall street as he is the interests. He
is many tines a millionaire and he
acquired his wealth by promoting out.
lawry in the steel and harvester trusts
/ by being one of a select few who con
troll the great life insurance compan
/ les and the Standard Oil bank.
! If Perkins is to go, shall Munsey
Bill Finn and Tim Woodruff stay
The progressive party can not win
with suspects as leaders and no more
than it can with a third term as
pirant as it's leader and all will have
to go, If even over the Rooseveltiar
protest.

CAUSES OF WRECKS.

In a statement issued from Wash
ington Interstate Commerce Commits
sioner Clark declares that most Of
the railroad wrecks may be put in the
class OF avoidable accidents. Poor
rails, speed craze. and human negli-
gence are the causes"
Avoidable. why are they not avoid
ED Because the makers of steel
rails can get larger profits from poor
rails than from good ones. The man
ayers Of railroads do not insist upon
better rails because the men who
control the railroads also control the
steel rails.
Upon the public rests responsibility
for the speed craze. II is intent upon
getting TO its destination in the short
est possible time. one ~ailroad beat
ing another by an hour or two be
tween two points, It gets the business
