Washington, ID. c., March 26.-
Senator Borah of Idaho, one of the
progressive Republican leaders of
the senate. speaking in that body
today, charged both of the great
political parties with utter failures
in their campaigns to give TO the
people clear and distinct issues as
of old. He contrasted present is
sues with those discussed by Lincoln
and Douglass.
we awake each morning to a
saturnalia of personal drivel. to
chickering's and quarrrelings which
have all the flavor of discussions
carried on in the political groggeries
of the lowest dives in the most
rotten districts of our great cities,
said Senator Borah. "One week our
great dailies are teeming with the
difference between Wilson and Har-
vey. the next week with what Col
onel Roosevelt said to some personal
friend in Oyster May, the next week
how the President failed to appreci-
ate the worth of some Rough Rider
and thereby changed the current of
history
If we could know the withering
contempt and bitter scorn which the
earnest and industrious people of
this country really have for this
cowardly abandonment of the great
issues. for this betrayal of the des-
TIMES of a great party, some heroic
effort would certainly be made to
get away from the most shameless
and disgraceful contention that ever
embarrassed a great cause. Turn
back and read the great debates of
Lincoln and Douglass when those
intellectual giants fought for su-
premacy- scarcely a personal allu-
sion from beginning to end. They
