fact, the question ofretaining or rejecting
a man should not be settled by one act,
for an official may do one thing which
his constituents may not agree with and
still be capable of doing the other things
in manner which will find appreciation
among the people at home. However,
we do not send representatives and sem
ators to Congress simply to reflect home
sentiment, but we send them there to
legislate for the whole country after they
have gained the broadest vision which
close study of condition may give them :;
and, for ourselves, we would not give
much for the representative or senator
who didn't have an opinion ofhis own or
who didn't have the courage to yoteco

he had become honestly convinced that
the home sentiment was not the most

while feeling that he took the wrong side
of the question, are nevertheless glad to

not turn his back when confronted by a
great wave OF public opinion which be-
lieves to the contrary. For showing his
courage and his consistency, Senator

Wilson and American Labor

Gov. Wilson's writing and speeches
prove him to be a free trader, for in his
gubernatorial campaign he endeavored to
prove that the protective tariff produced
only shoddy goods by showing that he
bought in Aberdeen, Scotland, for sixpence
socks that wore for years, when the home
product costing twice as much did not
last many weeks. In other words, he is
of the Englishman's opinions regarding his
beverage" You can't make hale in this
country because you aven't the ops; !"
that is it says, "you haven't the wool
and the skill" to make socks as they do
in Aberdeen. There is one consideration
in the Governors free trade views for the
welfare of the American wage worker,
whose standard ofliving is higher through
the better wages for his labor than pre-.
vail in Scotland, where oatmeal porridge
is the standard diet But when the Gov
ernor takes the stump and tackles the
tariff for revenue plank Of his party plat
form, it viii be interesting to learn how
he will cndeavor to induce American
wage carriers to believe that by combining
their daily diet largely to oatmeal they
can make cheaper stockings and be just
as happy as they are now. That would
certainly cheaper the cost OF living, at all
events

A Voice Out Of Tune

In the fierce glare which will beat upon
New Jersey Governor for the next four
months the country will come to see him
as he is, and there are Democrats like
Henry Watterson and other men OF prom
ineDce who believe that he will stand re-
vealed, as he is better known as a crafty,
d.blooded, selfcentered type of man.
Others maintain that beneath his polish
ed pedagogic exterior he is an unrecon-
structed Virginia rebel at heart. Which
may be so or not, but it is evident, how
ever, from his pre- convention speeches,
that he If shifty, equivocal and disingen-
uous in his attitude on public questions,
and while making proclamation OF his
radicaiism in the West, tried hard and
with some success to cloak it in ambigu-
Gus utterance and repudiateit by implica-
ton in the East. How long he can ride
two horses remains to be seen; but when
he is forced, as he is likely to be, as the
campaign progresses, to make choice of
one of them, we shall probably see him
letting the conservative faction of his
party go and make canvass on the pro-
gressive steed. In fact it need surprise no
one if the strategy of his campaign as it
Develops will be to capture the Roosevelt,
ultra radical vote, even if in SO doing he
ALLEVIATE his conservative support.
