The Latest Democratic Recruit.

Pity the endorsements. not TO say
the sorrows, OF. Senator Works of Cali
fornia.
Until recently republican. he has left
that party because OF its lack of pro-
sressiyeness Demanding progressive
ness. he rejects the so-called progressive
PARTY because of its dishonest Juggling
with the suffrage i'll his home state in the
interests of Theodore Roosevelt So he
lands with both feet in the democratic
partv. and will vote for Wilson and Mar
shall
Is Mr.. Works likely 10 remain long i'll
his new quarters? If the democratic
party wins will its prOgressiveness suit
him? When republican he was pro-
,ectionist: and California is for prOtec-
ton When a republican he was an ex-
pansionist: and the whole Pacific coast is
opposed to the mere suggestion of scuttle
as respects the Philippines. And when
a republican he took the western view OF
conservation. and did not interpret the
policy as hampering development.
What will Mr.. Works do when the
tariff is taken up by the next Congress?
Will a bill fashioned on the Baltimore
platform. or in part so, suit him? And
If it is sought to give legislative express
sion TO the democratic proposition of
early independence for the Philippines,
will he support the movement? And how
far will he go with his new allies as to
conseryation-a policy Of much interest
n the west?
The row at the republican national con-
vention over delegates caused much re-
greet in republican circles generally. But
There were many excellent members of
the party who, while regretting the row.
refused to leave the party on account of
it. They knew of the trickery that had
been attempted in Mr.. RoOsevelt's be-
iialf. and they saw nothing alluring in the
record or promises of the democratic
party So they decided to remain where
they were, and try for the progress and
Improvement they desired within the
ranks of the old organization.
But Mr. Works, losing faith, has
changed base. Too progressive for his
old associates. and too honest to CO.
operate with those who are making a
mockery of progress in California. he
goes over TO the democrats, and for the
moment endows them with all his sena-
torial goods.
But suppose California votes for Roose-
Welt Suppose the dishonest juggling
Nth the suffrage is Endorsed at the polls.
VIII Mr.. Works. elected as republican,
and now representing a constituency
committed as he thinks to fraud. retain
his commission? 1t is most likely that
another demand will be made for his
.esgnatiop, and I'm the circumstances sup
osed the question will take on new and
considerable interest

Roosevelt, Wilson and the Tariff.

Mr.. ROosevelt's impatience with Mr..
Wilson on the tariff question has both a
serious and a comic side. There is some
warrant for the feeling. for Mr.. Wilson
is handling the question in, his speeches
in very hay way. In one address he
appears as an old-fashiOned foe of pro-
lection. Echoes Of Samuel j. Tilden.
John c. Carlisle, Henry Watterson and
the famous ''Parsee Merchant" are
heard. Protection is unconstitutional and
harmful. and must be destroyed. In an
other address he appears as defender.
a champion. of protection. He sOothes
the robber barons with soft words. Let
theHa not be uneasy. No tariff legisla-
ton is meditated on lines to disturb their
Investments. All business will be safe in
democratic hands.
1t is easy to point out and explain Mr..
Wilson's contradictions and embarrass-
ments. They spring out of his position
as leader of a party divided on the tariff,
and yet battling for power with the
tariff as the issue. One day he appeals
for the support of free trade democrats
and the next day for the support of
protection democrats. He cannot reach
the White House unless both factions Of
by a union of the factions? That. in
the language of Mr.. Kipling, is another
story
But i'm showing Mr.. Wilson up. Mr..
Roosevelt shows himself up: and he cuts
no better figure than the man he criti-
cises He claims to be "a protectiOnist,
but of new school. He wants the tariff
put into the hands Of commission.
Away with the OLD form Of revision
That was inadequate. and produced in
justice and special privilege. Congress
was not properly equipped by it for its
work. The proper caper, the progressive
caper, is a commission of experts, with
far larger powers than those bestowed
on the late tariff board, whose duty it
shall be to investigate the whole SUBJ
ject, rearrange the schedules. and ad-
just duties to the needs Of capital, OF
labor and Of consumer.
Beautiful from the Rooseveltian point
of view, and completes his scheme for
reducing Congress to nothing and exalt-
ing the President TO the skies. With a
commissOn-headed or dominated by
George W. Perkins-for the regulation Of
trusts; with another commission appoint
ed by himself for regulating the tariff,
and with still another commission headed
by Clifford Pinclot, for fixing and execut-
ing a policy for conservation. Mr.. Roose-
welt would realize much Of his desire to
be. complete master of the situation.
In the matter of the tariff the Consti-
tuition is in his way. Under that anti
uuated and obstructive instrument. Con-
gress alone has the power to levy taxes
arrange tariff schedules and fix rates of
duty. But so much the worse for the
obstruction The Rooseveltian shibbOleth
is. THE Constitution must co.

Are you going upon the stage, fair lass:
On fame have YOU set your heart?
Then think Of the things that must come

Before you are great in art.
You must write book. You must make

On feminine politics.
You must have pet horses and dogs to

Your family troubles you must tell
Each day in q burst Of print.
You must golf and motor and ride as
