PARTYS POWER AT END STRIKING FASTER GAIT
BREAKUP OF REPUBLICAN ORGAN
IzATIoN is APPARENT.
Its Only Bond Fast Approaching Disco
luton With the Personal Quarrel
Between President Taft and
Theodore Roosevelt.

The Republican party is going TO
pieces because the only bond that mas
held 1t together for years past has lost
its power over the people. That BOND
is the protective tarin.
Republicanism' two great leaders
are now openly at war. They accuse
each other of many wrongs, but In
every case the charge has to do with
the tariff or its beneficiaries. Both
wings of the party are In full flight
from the organizations tariff and trust
record and the harshest things that
Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt can say
of each other are those that allege I'M
due subserviency to the grasping ooss-
es of business. and politics.
Some such end as this is inevitable
in the case Of every political party that
has no aim but plumber. In all OF Re
publicanism's bookkeeping for ~
years there has been no entry OF
moral idea. Its sole purpose has been
the enrichment of class at the ex-
pense Of another class Its sentiments
are all sordid. B. It's battle cries are all
Of greed.
Mr.. Taft confesses the hopelessness
of further monopolistic tariffs by de-
nouncing the present schedules and
their authors and promising relief as
soon as the tariff board shall have COM
pleted it's Investigations.
Mr.. Roosevelt confesses the worth
lessness of the trust-building tariff for
campaign purposes hereafter by seek
ing a third term on other and very re-
mote Issues There were few presi-
denotes in the bloody shirt. There
have been several presidencies in the
tariff, but Republicans everywhere
agree that there will be no more
A party actuated by high ideals
could not possibly develop a situation
such as that which has led to the vio-
lent personal quarrel between Mr..
Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt. They have
fallen apart because the various bene-
ficiaries of favoring laws have sepa-
rated into jealous and warning groups.
Some of these gluttonous interests IA
vor one man. Some Of them favor
, the other. In the exposures now in
progress we have proof of guilt on all
sides and revelations of the truth that
cannot fail to startle the country.
The break between Mr.. Taft and Mr..
Roosevelt is more than a rupture be-
tween two men. 1t signifies that the
two wings of the Republican party are
turning states evidence against each
other. Neither side has any defense
to offer for the party as such. Both
admit every count in the indictment
of that organization as presented by
Democrats There is no hope of saw
ing the party. for 1t is conceded that
it is not worth saving. The present
Republican watchword is Every man
for himself!"-St. Louis Republic.

this is presidential year. Naturally
1t takes the president and members

upon the ratification of the general ar
