Cummins' Statement.

On the fifth inst, Senator Cummins
issued at Washington, D. c., a lengthy
announcement on the political situa
ton. It seems to have been carefully
prepared and yet it does not state
where he stands or who he Is going
to support for president. So important
a feature of his long story Is left out
The only point he makes is that he ia
opposed to the third party movement
He closes his statement with this sig
nificant paragraph:
"a fraudulent conspiracy vltiates
everything it touches and therefore as
to the republican, who after intelli.
gent inquiry reaches the conclusion

SATURDAY OSSH''I"0
July 10.
Beginning Saturday. July 10, the
Courier will for several weeks follow.
ing. on each Saturday, publish an IN
stallment of the recipes used by Mrs.
Marchmont at the Courier cooking
school, There will also be other
recipes published than those which
she used at the school here, but all
of them are recipes that Mrs. March
monr uses in her demonstration work.
These recipes will be published In
a way that they may be clipped out OF
the paper and pasted in recipe book
or scrap book. We will publish few
Of them each Saturday so that there
will be time during the week to try
them before the next installment Is
printed.
These recipes tell different ways OF
making bread, preparing meat and
fish. also how to make cakes and
pastry and sauces. This will be a nice
feature of the Saturday Courier and

he stamps upon himself the judgment
of m:serably wanting in integrity, in
moral tone and in love for his fellow
man. Others may trust him, cannot.
Now since Mr.. Cummins has pub
lished a long story without touching
the vital question as to where he
stand politically, in the light Of his
past, where have we the best reason
to place him?
His method Of reform seems to me
to be devoted primarily to the success

How a man can be right all of
the time and change bis beliefs
with every new moon is more than
tue average voter can understand
Was he right ia October, 1910,
when he said "In the last eighteen
months u long list of importaut
legislation, most heartily to he
commended, as combining wisdom
aud progress, has been enacted by
congress and approved by Pres.
Taft" Or is he right now when,
with a selfish motive, he declares
that Mr.. Taft's administration has
given us no progressive legislation /?
Was ne right when he heartily
commended the Canadian reciproc-
Iity treaty Z? or is he right now when
with a selfish motive Of catering to
the farmers support he bitterly
condemns it?
Was he right when in his Col
umbus speech he advocated the
recall Of judicial decisions? ? or was
he right a few days ago when he
said that the recall of decisions
would not be incorporated in the
platform of his new party?
Was he right when he applied
the commandment "lhou shalt
not steal" to the Chicago conven.
ton ? or is he right now in claim,
ing that that commandment does
not apply to an electoral college?

The national convention Of the
Bull Moose party will be held in
Chicago next Monday to nominate
a candidate for president. Mr..
Roosevelt told his followers at Chi
cago, when he bolted the repubE-
can convention, that when the new
party convention was held he want
ed the delegates to feel free to
nominate any one else besides him
for president if they saw fit, yet he
has already prepared his speech of
acceptance. Ia Chicago no one
except the elect knows where the
primaries are to be held and every
one who attends primary must
present ticket of admission at
the door given him by Medill Me-
Cormick of the international Har-
vester trust. In this state no eau
cuses have been held but it is pre-
sumed that delegates have been
appointed by some one of the in
ner council. Let the people rule !!

The Sioux Falls Press would
like to know the names of the sixty
republicans in Scotland precinct
who have signed the resolutions
pleGging themselves to support no
candidate on The republican ticket
who refuses to endorse the national
platform and candidates. If the
Press editor will come to Scotland
he can find them, and he viii not
have to go into the back alleys to
do it either. He will find them In
the principal business places OF
the town, and they will freely ac-
knowledge it to him, as none OF
them are "afraid of the cars.
He will also f"d another import
ant fact, and that is that only
two republicans that have been
asked to sign have refused.

The Chicago Record Herald, one

who accuse others of fraud and
theft must see TO it that their own
hands are perfectly clean and their
own proposals fair and honora-
ble." Il says such a plan "can

ton is not even to have the privi-
lege of electing it's own temporary
chairman? End can it be that a
contested delegate is to be allowed
to take his seat on the recommen-
dation of a provisional committee
before the convention has passed
upon his case? It looks as tho
the Colonel had borrowed the re-
publican steam roller and loaded
it with a double charge of steam.

SCOTLAND, HoMNlE COUNTY, THURSDAY, AUG,
The editor of the Tvndall Trib

The editor of the Tvndall Irib
une thinks the resolutions that are
being freely signed BY the republl-
cans Of Scotland, in which they
pledge themselves to oppose for
election all candidates on the re-
publican state and congressional
ticket who since their nomination
have repudiated the republican ma
tional platform and candidates,
go too far. The Tribune says:
The measure goes entirely too
far as it jeopardizes the candidacy
of every republican candidate on
The state ticket as we'll as striking
at the county ticket. In other
words 1t is proposed to sacrifice the
whole ticket in order to get revenge.
The editor of the Tribune has
evidently not read the resolutions
carefully or he would not make
such statement. The resolutions
make no allusion to candidates for
county Offices, for it is supposed
that they are still loyal to the re-
publican party, as they have made
no declarations to the contrary.
On the state and congressional
tickets they apply only to those
candidates who. at the Huron con
vention withdrew their allegiance
from their party by refusing to
endorse the principles of the ma
tional party or its candidates, Such
candidates have foresworn their al
legiance to the republican party,
and can no longer claim any sup
port as republicans.
No political party is entitled to
the confidence of the people if it
does not make every possible el
fort to fulfill the pledges that it
makes in its platform. What claim
would a party have upon the con-
hdence of the people If it proclaim
ed its principles, and then proceed
ed to elect men to carry out those
principles who openly repudlate
them +? The party then becomes
simply an organization maintained
for the ;gnoble purpose Of securing
the spoiIs Of office. Its platform
will Justly he regarded as pledge
of insincerity proclaimed for the
purpose of deceiving the voters and
getting their support for the can
didates. No party can afford To
practice such hypocrisy with the
voters, aud there is no better nueth-
Cd OF establishing public confidence
III the party than lor tile republ
cans themselves, who believe III
honest politics, to openly and fear,
lessly rebuke such treachyry AT The
polls 20 jeoparliza The can3i
dates is not fatal TO the party 10
jeopafdize our principles Is ana
ought to be fatal.
The Tribune intimates that the
movement is for revenge. Moth
ing is further from the minds Of
those who support this resolution
This fact is shown in the resolu
tions themselves by putting the
question plainly up to the candi
dates and demanding that they be
what they pretend to be. So far
as we know there is no enmfty a
gainst any candidate on the ticket,
but the voters feel that they have
a right to some assurance from ev
cry candidate that he is loyal to
the principles of the party from
which he is asking support.
OF course there may be a few
voters who are more interested in
the success OF some individual can
didate than they are in maintain
ing tie integrity of their party. Tc
such these resolutions will not ap
peal.

REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.

At Phoenix, Wednesday there was held a meeting of the Republi- can State Executive Committee which promulgated a call for a state convention to be held at Tucson on June Sd to select six delegates to the National Republi- can Convention which meets at Chicago about the middle of the same month.
 It was decided by the committee to leave to the various county com mittees the methods to be adopted in selecting their delegates to the state convention. The county committees may call primary cleo tions to select delegates; they may call county conventions, consisting of delegates sent up from precinct primary mass meetings; or the county committees may name the delegates from their respective counties. Either method will meet

approval and delegates selected by whichever way will be seated If primary elections are chosen they will be held on May 25th.
 The executive committee, with three dissenting votes adopted resolutions endorsing the admins tration of President Taft.
 Santa Cruz county will be en- titled to five delegates to the state convention.
 Chairman H. Gordon Glore of the County Central Committee has called d meeting of that com mittee, to be held in Nogales, on Wednesday May 18th, at 10 o'clock a. m.. to determine the methods to be adopted in selecting delegates.

WILL THERE BE INTERvENTIoN7

Is a question over which there is manifest wide difference of opinion. Nearly everybody along the border or having interests in Mexico holds that intervention is inevitab ble, and that the sooner it is hastened the better it will be for all concerned. But there is a large element, who look. beyond the issue of the moment who hold that there will be no such policy pursued by the United States, and that there should not be. General Anson Mills U. s. A., chief of the Inter national Boundary Commission, who is a resident of El PasO, and has there large financial interests, has taken, in recent interview, high ground against the proposi- tion for intervention, and the gentleman holds there is no neces- sity nor need nor justification for the government and people of the United States mixing into the Mexican difficulties. He cites our own war between the states fifty years ago, and he holds that the Mexicans should be left to fight out their own issues, just as we fought out our own in the early eos. Upon the other hand many military men of broad experience are outspoken in their belief that intervention is immi- nent and ought to be.
 Among our friends across the border there seems to be a mixed feeling that is hardly fathoma ble. Some very good people among the Mexicans seem to feel that the government and the people of the United States are mixing in some- thing which does not concern them, and they resent with bitter hostii- ty the idea of intervention. In that connection they make some unwarranted assertions. And if they paid less attention to what they hear said about the subject by
The oasis., 1912-05-04

THE El Paso Times; "The Ari- zona legislature has proved a dis tinct disappointment to the entire country" Had it not done so there would have been many level head ed people disappointed.
The oasis., 1912-05-04

That fact will cause no little hesi- tancY when it comes to the final casting of the die for or against intervention.
The oasis., 1912-05-04

be their own frame of mind. If they realized that a great deal of the talk about intervention was sprung in the United States for political effect, they would not be half so greatly worried. According to some political wiseacres the Taft administration is keenly anxious to precipitate trouble with Mexico, through a belief that a war would fire the popular heart in favor of the administration and make 1t strong for reelection of the Presi dent. To THE OASIS that idea seems incorrect. This newspaper believes that there is no desire on the part of President Taft nor his advisers to precipitate war with Mexico or any other power. It is our belief that the President is we'll aware that intervention would be an open act of war which would require an Act of Congress, and that such an act cannot be obtained in the present temper of the Ameri- can people. And it will require much more than appears possible at present to inhame the public mind so such an act can be passed by the Congress It should not be forgotten that every congressman will vote upon such a proposition as his constituents feel and very few constituencies are apt to get the war fever upon the present showing in Mexico or upon any showing that is possible.
 But if the United States does have to take hold and restore order in Mexico it will be made thor ough job. There will be no half way measures. Order will be res tored, and it will be preserved It is in contemplation of what the latter implies that all true Amer jeans dread the undertaking. De- cupation of the country by an American army will not be a very difficult matter. But 1t Is in the preservation of order so that life and property will be safe in all parts where will come the tug. That will mean adoption of Diaz me- thods; and when 1t comes to that there will arise all over the. United States great Outcry against the alleged cruelty and inhumanity of such methods. Banditism and bringandage will be put down with an iron hand. For all taken in arms against American author ity there will be the firing squad in front of an adobe wall. But, as General Mills says, it twill require fifty years to reduce all the disor
 derly elements" to a wholesome desire for peace. Those who un- dertake the job will have not only the natives to fight, but they will have to fight strong sentiment at home against despotic methods.
