The Advisers of a President

we find from the evidence to be Will
liam Barnes, Jr., him3elf.
This report was made as recently
as March % of the present year.
But last Monday-and that not for
the first time-"Red Light Bill" was
taken into the bosom OF President
Taft's home.
And there also was Penrose, a
political corruptionist OF such long
standing and nationwide reputation
as to overshadow even Barnes and
TO require no charge more circum-
stantial than his mere name.
And there were Crane and Vorys,
both aiders and abettors in the stolen
nomination at Chicago.
Colonel Roosevelt spoke the exact
truth when he said that mo people
is wholly civilized where a distinc-
ltion Is drawn between stealing an
office and stealing purse. No truly
honest man should be satisfied with
an office to which his title is not as
valid as that Of the homestead which
shelters his family"
A man who steals chunk OF ice
or can OF condensed milk Is q
criminal because the law defines
such thefts as crimes. The members
OF the national committee who par
ticipated in the theft of the conven-
ton are morally no better than
others who steal Legally, they are
not criminals only because the law
fails TO make the stealing of pres
idential nomination a crime.
We know of no rule Of ethics
which mitigates the turpitude OF a
host who entertains men fresh from
the commission of political crimes
Of which he has been the direct ben
eficiary. In the absence of a Solo
mon, we must await the action Of
the American people for their YER
! dict North American.

When President Taft entertains as

House big Steve" of Colorado. We
fail TO see how such an act differs
in principle from other Hypothetical
cases.
Long before big Steve" conspired
with other members Of the Republi-

advertised far and wide by Judge
of Colorado court as dangerous
and persistent lawbreaker.

On Monday last President Taft

national committee. who, like big
Steve" had aided in the preparation
Of the theft of the convention. And
in the choice group OF the presi-

who, like Big Steve" had variously
and frequently been accused OF
crimes against the communities and
states which they represent and
against the public at large.

That, however, is a matter for

In the natural order Of progress it is
difficult to see how any other condl-

the progress Of agriculture and the
introduction of Iabor-saviug ma.
chinery it is possible for farm
worker to do than formerly by his
years labor, it necessarily follows
that a smaller proportion of our
population must be engaged in agri-
cultural pursuits and it follows also
that the farmer prospering from his
increased output, must wear better

and buy pianos and automobiles in
order to supply demand for the
manufactured products turned out
