Mr.. WILSON'S APOLOGY.
Afraid to Publish What He Said About
Union Labor and Immigrants.


The so called Wilson defense bu-
reau has issued a long statement to
the effect that Woodrow Wilson's Pub
lisheA opinions in his books on the al
legged mferiority of European inlrni'
grants and American workingmen
generally to the Chinese and favoriae
Chinese immigration. etc, have been
"misinrelpreted."
There is one ready and complete re-
ply 20 misinterpretation, and that is
to repubnsh what Wilson said TO let
him speak for himself This the vii
son defense bureau of the Democratic
national committee carefully re.rains
from doing, and neither Wilson nor his
apologists, therefore, can blame Amer
ican workingmen in general and Euro
pean immigrants in particular for con-
cluding that Wilson meant just what
his language meant when he ex-
pressed his bad opinion of trades
unions and his preference for Chinese
over Europeans.

HE TURNS TO TRUSTS.
Woodrow Wilson EVades Discussion
Of the Tariff Question.

Of the Tariff Question.
II is the trust issue, we are now told
by Woodrow Wilson, that is para.
mount in the campaign. Last week il
was the tariff What it will be nex'
week has not yet been indicated.
In his speech OF acceptance Cover
nor Wilson emphasized the fact that a
platform was not a program. Those
were words of wisdom. A program is
something to be followed with some
degree of fidelity A platform. in the
lexicon of the Democratic candidate,
is a flexible thing, not to be taken too
seriously. but to be bent and altered
to meet the demands of the moment
A nice, adaptable platform is good
enough for him.
In all fairness and in all decency,
however. DR.. Wilson should not be
permitted TO eFade a discussion ofrthe
issue he brought forward as the i'm
portant one early in his campaign His
campaign manager refused a chal-
lenge for a joint debate between Re-
publican and Democratic speakers on
the tariff, and the candidate might
disclaim personal responsibility for
that, but certainly Dr. Wilson cannot
avoid responsibility for his own
words and his own arguments. The
fact that he found his audiences to-
tally out Of sympathy with his free
trade views should not still his tongue
if he has the courage of his cOnvic-
tions and honestly believes the doc
trine which he preached. If he be a
true leader of the anti-protectiOnists
he will justify his beliefs and opin-
ions.
SO far from doing this. however, he
has elected to evade, precisely as his
managers evade. adequate discussion
of the subject which means so much
to every individual in the land. Firs;
assailing protection and making state
ments that demonstrated his lack Cf
knowledge Of the facts, he shifted
from that position to one where he was
trying to calm the fears of the indus
trial and commercial elements in the
population aroused by his initial ut-
El duNFo. Out vi All Ills ulOlE VI AtoH
vague talk on the subject only one
Thing emerges clearly and distinctly
that is. that he and his party pro
pose C. purely political revision Of the
arin. with all the disaster, distress
md disturbance that such a revision
entails Scientific revision on accur.
tie information is rejected by aim
md his party Political revision is
ust what the people do not want, but
,oth candidate and party are comm 4
ed to it; hence. their desire to get
way from the issue
BY all means let the trusts be dis
ussed. too. but not in terms of gen
ralities. such as Governor Wilson in
ulged in before the Democratic state
onv,htion at Trenton last Tuesday.

on might explain why it was that the
house curtailed the trust

Milford chronicle., 1912-11-01

Dispassionate judges win accord to
the Taft administration the credit OF
putting in force more measures of q
positively progressive character than
any other administration since the
civil war. Not only have such meas
ures been numerous, but they have
been Of great and far-reaehing impor-
tance. President Taft has labored in
defatigably to serve the whole people,
and by means Of his broad experience
and rare judicial mind and having at
his command legal talen of the high
est order he has put his progressive
policies one after another into valid
and practical legislation. This has
been done without boasting and noise.
Whether vindicated or not at the com
ing election, Mr.. Taft's work will
stand as a chapter of achievement as
brilliant as it is meritorious.
We wish at this time to invite atten-
ton to two specific features of gov
ernmental progress. One consists of
the interstate commerce commissions
investigation of the express compa-
mics, resulting in the recent report or
dering the companies to reduce rates
and institute sweeping reforms in va
rious directions. The other is the en-
Rctment of the Bourne parcels post
bill. one of the most useful measures
ever put in force In this country under
any administration. These two re-
forms, taken in connection, will exert
q powerful influence for a reduction
of the cost of living
Mr.. Taft has been in complete sym
pathy with the interstate commerce !
commissions inquiry into the express !
business. a process consistent in all re-
spects with the administration gen /
eral policy of compelling big corpora 4
tiOns to square themselves with the
law and the public interest. Some Of |
the more powerful corporations do not
like that policy. but the public ought
to indOrse It. The enactment Of par
cells post law brings to fruition a plan
that found Endorsement in the plat
form upon which the president was
elected. Through the action OF the
senate the Bourne bill, looking to a
parcels service at the lowest practica.
BILE rates within a given territory, was
substituted for the house bill with its
nat rate provisions. The measure as
passed probably is not perfect, nor
should the rates be regarded as per.
The plan is experimental in
certain respects. But we believe the {
principle Of the act is correct One Of I
the most important aspects Of this {
measure Is its bearing on the food sit \
nation. It will give consumers and pro +
iucers a new medium Of direct con. 8
act. The interstate commerce com.
rulings respecting the ex.
lress companies also make special &C. {
cunt Of this problem. The express Il
are required to order their t
usiness in such a manner as to give 4
uicker service and lower rates on
BOD products.
