THE GOVERNOR WHO MAKES
GOOD.

One of the strongest Democratic pa
Ders in the land is the Baltimore Sun.
Nor is there a more consistent advo-
cate of Gov. Wilson. But while this is
true, the Sun is not blinded to the
good qualities of other men. 1t does
not think it is necessary to blackguard
other candidates to make room for its
own favorite. 1t refuses to endorse
he methods so many have adopted OF
oludgeoning every head that makes its
appearance in opposition to the New
Jersey candidate. 1t realizes that
while there can be but one presiden-
tial candidate selected there can be IL
number of very able, highly honorable,
and exceedingly worthy aspirants.
Above all, the Sun, like the great
majority of staunch Democratic pa
pers, refuses to follow the lead ri
Bryan and endorse his attack on Har-
mon and Underwood, simply that the
Nebraskan may settle up old scores
against those aspirants for the nomill-
alton. 1t declines to be a party to the
policy that has always marked Bryan,
Of killing where he cannot rule,
Recently Bryan has been atackin2
Harmon in Ohio, attacking him with
his usual innuendoes, charges restinp
on a slim or false basis, endeavOrins
by sly limitations and slurs to pu,
down the man who has given Ohi-
such a magnificent administration as
to put the state almost definitely in
the Democrat column. Without re-
ferring to Bryan directly, the Sun
pays this tribute to the man the Ne
braskan agitator and would-be-Czar of
Democracy. is assailing:
Governor Harmon, in his notable
speech at Wooster, Ohio, gave utter
ance to this sentiment:
1.-The deaIe wish of my heart has
been to repay the great honor done
me by so conducting the affairs of the
State that a succession of Democratic
administrations would follow mine.
The Governors first administration
was followed by a second one, and at
[ his second election he received a ma
| jority three times as great as that
which he received at his first election.
How was this ACCOMPLISHED? What
! kind of conduct does the Governoc
suppose will bring a succession of
| Democratic adminstl atoms? The an
! swer to this question would be a
! pointer to every Democratic office
| holder in the land. The Governor S
method is the true one, for he has
proved it, What. then, is that method ?
Is it building up of a political ma
chine and the rerairing of political
fences? Is it making political use of
the reople's offices?
The answer to all these questions
is No The Governor answers the
question by telling what he has done
He has opposed and routed the polit-
cal crooks of his own party. He mas
| forced from the legislature good laws.
He has readjusted taxation so that the
rich corporation tax dodgers were
compelled to pay their just proper
tons. BY this means the homes an
farms have been relieved of the I'M
lust portion which thed had been car
rying.
That is to say, the hest way for 4
oarty to win is to deserve to win. If
It is to tee public interest that a party
should be in rover. the chances are
th9t TIE people viii nut it in powef.
Governor Harmon has shown the
way"

the republic today, the anniversary
of the independence of Bolivia and
the opening of the recently complet-
ed trans-Andcan railway connecting
AFRICA with La Paz. The line, which
is 275 miles long, has been construct
ed in accordance with treaty arrange
ments entered into between the
Chilean and bolivian governments IN
1904. The work was actually begun
by the former government, but In
April, 1909, a British firm undertook
to complete the line and supply the
rolling stock for Letr. 100000. The
time named in the contract was three
years, an extremely short period in
view of the great engineering dill
culties that had to be overcome IN
building the line which crosses the
Andes at an altitude of $4,000 feet
above sea level.
