leader, Mr. Roosevelt, is to be admired
for his manliness, his brilliant energy,
and his wonderful aggressiveness-the
fact that he and his party are pledged
TO the perpetuation of the principles of
protective tariff. must forfeit them
at present the support of the thought
full and conscientious voter.
If then, as ought to be contended,
legalized special privilege In the pres
ent disguise of a protective tariff, is
the chief source of nationwide extor-
ton, of organized political corruption,
and of the fixing upon this nation of
privileged class, It becomes our mani
fest duty to support vigorously and I'M
fiinchiE ely the one and only party,
which. in repudiating the protective
tariff, sounds the death knell of special
privileges in its most insidious form.
The democratic party alone stands
pledged to the destruction of protec-
ton. That it will carry out the pledge
with courage and precision no one can
seriously doubt who has followed the
last democratic congress under the
leadership of Speaker Clark in its en-
deavor to accomplish the most press
ing reductions, or who knows of the
historic tenacity with which it has
ever cried for its destruction. That it
will carry out the reform wisely, no
one can doubt who appreciates the
mastery Of the subject by the presiden-
tial candidate, Woodrow Wilson. For
no man in this republic today is better
qualified TO guide the nation to a wise
solution of its political and economic
problems than he.
Now and then, IN the past, has the
democratic party, in days Of prosper
/ ity, failed to heed the voice of prog
gress; now and then, in the past. in
days Of adversely, has it yielded to the
pitiful voice of distress and lend it's
aid to desperate measures. But never,
Z in all the long years Of useful exist
ence, was there ever an hour when it
had ceased TO voice its pleading pro-
test in the most emphatic and be
seeching manner against the iniquity
and menace of a persistent protective
tariff
We do not indulge in the slightest
delusion as TO the democratic party
We worship IL no more and no less
than any other human, and therefore

in England, and one of the best of
men, once wisely said:
There is nothing in public affairs
that tends more to make men dishon-
est, than the system of protection. 1t
was so in this country before our free
trade era; it is so now in the United
States"
And this is the very system that the
new progressive party had the oppor-
tunity to purge itself of, and by failing
TO do so it has planted within its con-
stitution the seed which must ultimate
~ destroy it, and which. at present at
least destroys its usefulness as a me
dunn for the realization Of new or
der.
But was not there corruption when
the democratic party ruled? Unques-
tiOnably, and altogether too much of
it. But it has no meaning so far as
corruption might affect federal legis-
lation. The corruption is local, spor.
adic. subject to being attacked and
put down by local sentiment. Ii is not
intrenched in immensely powerful in.
terests upheld by the government.
Thus democratic corruption. however
noxious, can be reached and overcome
by local forces In a national sense,
almost every suspicious element had
been eliminated from places of van.
tage at the Baltimore convention and
previously by the candidate for the
presidency, whose ultimate victory
must ever stand as a glorious achieve
ment Of an enlightened and awakened
party conscience.
! And now is not the republican party
more than ever to be Stunned? The
/ progressive elements have forsaken il
and what is left is reeking with the
pollution of entrenched Iegalized priv
ilege. Granted that Mr.. Taft is an I'D
right, independent and even progress
sive statesman, would he not be NOR,
( poweriess than ever in dragging on
ward the cause of progress with all tn,
united dynamics Of retrogression bount
10 pull in the opposite direction?
Much as the new party movement &
20 be welcomed as a potential medium
for good in the future; much as IT.

Far more ominous than the econom

moral and political bearing-the cor
ruption it breeds.
The big business interests of the ma
