WILL ALL COME OUT IN THE WASH.

IT will "ll come out in the wash And the story of illicit
II contributions to national campaigns should go back to 1896,
when Hanna was the Republican national manager. Some
of the revelations of the vast amounts paid that year and in other
years to the Republican campaign funds occurred in the Arm
strong insurance investigation in New York, but while there have
been charges the story has never been told. For many years
"frying the fat" out of the highly protected manufacturers was
VIGOROUSLY a practise, but the era of big contributions, such as
Archbold confesses that the Standard Oil Company made in 1904,
began with Hanna. In 1904, it will be remembered, it was not
Roosevelt who was desired as the Republican convention candi-
date by the men who commanded the source of the large contrl-
buttons, and they were lukewarm in the campaign. They did not
desire Taft in 1908, believing that he represented the Roosevelt
policies, but still less did they want Bryan. Taft is their candi-
date for 1912, and his campaign stands in more need than the
campaign which Hanna financed in 1896, and there are now much
larger resources to draw upon. Investigation should therefore
take up all these presidential campaigns and, obviously, the most
important is the present one, including the contributions to the
ante-convention campaign. 1t is gratifying to Democrats that in
all the elimination and recrimination going on at Washington
not a word has been said to charge such practises upon the
Democratic national managers. And it all reads like the death
bed confession of an expiring party.

CANDIDATES IN THE CAMPAIGN.

cTr1 HERE has been some doubt at Sea Girt as to whether Gov
ernor Woodrow Wilson should make any extended speak
ing tours in the fall. What President Tafts program is
has not been given out, but he has been so uniformly unsuccess-
full in his campaign speeches that it is probable he will be coun-
seled to let others do the spellbinding. Moreover, in his case,
there would be reason to fear platform blunders. AS to Roose-
velt, there is no doubt about his campaign program. He will
tour every State and make the campaign of his life. 1t will de-
pend altogether upon the apparent results of this strenuous work
whether the other two candidates will remain in comparative
repose. Mr.. Taft was stirred into activity in the campaign for the
Chicago nomination by the progress made by Roosevelt and he
was compelled to fairly comb his own State of Ohio from end
to end. The chances are that he will again be dragged into ex-
hausting campaign labors. 1t is yet to be seen to what extent the
Roosevelt candidacy appeals to Democratic voters. Signs of dan
ger in that respect must necessarily put an end to any uncertainty
at Sea Girt. The Democratic candidate will have to hustle.

OPEN MAINE CAMPAIGN

PORTLAND, Me, Aug. 26.-With
the invasion of Maine today by Gov
ernor Marshall, of Indiana, the Demo-
cratic candidate for vice-president.
the campaign for the biennial State
election of September 9 will get into
full swing. Governor Marshall will
be the first outsider to appear. He
will be followed by Speaker Champ
Clark, and later by other national
leaders of the different parties. Mr..
Clark will speak at Bar Harbor.
The Republicans have endeavored
thus far to confine the campaign to
State issues, and there has been no
great demand on their part for out
side help. The supporters of the Pro-
gressive movement, although differing
with their neutrality-suspicious. on ma
tional questions, have not sought to
put a State ticket into the field, and
are expected to support the regular
Republican nominees.

for the moral uplift of our own peo-
Pile and for good citizenship in the
State. Let US hope that the reverend
directors in the other counties will
emulate their brethren in Hudson and
Essex, and we may expect that some
day we will have q distinctly diocesan
federation of Holy Name societies,
whose influence will be provocative
of everything that is good civilly and
enthusiastically.
OF late the press in some of our
cities where vice prevails, and where
II ere has been a movement to mini
mize the social evil and its feeders
the disgusting dance halls attached
to disreputable saloons; the ques-
tionable picture shows and the night
picnics fathered by beariless youths
has asked whether tine Holy Name
societies might not be the agents to
bring abou' the much-oeeded reforms.
We are p.'ouo to say that there is not
a man upon rur roster who would not
be pleased to lend his assistance to
counterGct these abuses: but, we
might ask in return: Villa: are our
Young Mems Christian associations
doing! vi ere are the Junior Order
of American Mechanics? And what of
the Guardians of Liberty? Let US
respectfully submit to the editors OF
the press that these forces be like
wise modified, and 1t may be said
that much that is detrimental to the
moral tone of our cities and to the
improper bringing up of our families
will be in a short while eliminated.

calling upon the reverend directors to
make our coming rally day a very
memorable one in the annals Of our
society; but. it has been, | might

WHY SEC. WILSON
WANTS TAFT AGAIN
Refers to Achievements of Ag-
ricuIturaI Dept. Under His
Administration.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wilson has issued
a statement explaining why. in his
opinion, President Taft should b. re-
elected. The achievements of his own
department under the present admin
istration are given as his chief rea
son
Incidentally Secretary Wilson dis
closes why he has become so we'll
known the country owe by the fact
that the department has issued 200.-
900, 900 copies of bulletins and pub
LEGATIONS of interest to public welfare.
Mr.. Wilson quotes Mr.. Taft's in
augural address at length, in which
the President. while calling atten-
tion to the necessity of economy in
expenditures, deprecated any cur
tailment in the appropriations of the
Department of Agriculture. Mr.. Will
o explains particularly the work of
the Weather Bureau and points to
the assurance given of healthy cat
tie and pure food and drugs.
Mr.. Wilson says that President
Taft's whole-hearted support of the
departments work and his utteraDces
in regard to 1t In his annual mes
sages have been a source of great
qualification to him.

ON SHORT TOUR
Conference Today Determines
on Only Few Speeches
in Larger Cities.

SEA GRIT, Aug. 26.-Governor
Woodrow Wilson's plan for making
only a few scheduled campaign ad-
with the approval of the members of
the campaign committee with whom
the governor conferred at national
Democratic headquarters in New
York today.
Il am only to speak on particular
occasions" announced the governor,
land there is to be no stumping
tour"
In announcing his itinerary for the
next three weeks the governor re-
vealed his intention of concentrating
his attention on New York, Pennsyl-
vania and New Jersey. He will open
his campaign in New York with a
speech on Labor Day at Buffalo.
II have a speech in my system
about workingmen," said the Gov
ernor, which I have intended to get
out for some time
The Governor is to speak outside
of New Jersey for the first time when
he addresses the State Changers at
Williams Grove, Pa, on Thursday OF
this week. Today. en- route to sea
Girt from New York, he
his speaking engagements for n
next three weeks as follows:
August 29-At Williams Grove, Pa,
State Changers picnic.
September Labor Day ceieora-
ton al Buffalo, N. Y.
September 4-Dollar dinner of
Workingmen's Woodrow Wilson
League at New York city.

September 1O.-United Spanish Wal
Veterans at Atlantic City.
September 12.-New York State Fair
at Syracuse.

ton, Pa, notifying Pennsylvania
Democratic ticket of nominations.
The Governor said he had talked
about campaign finances with Ma
tional Treasurer Wells and Messrs.
Morgenthau and Crane, of the finance
committee. He was in conference just
two hours and had to rush to the
Pennsylvania station in a taxicab to
catch a train.
Governor Wilson issued a statement
denying the report that Mr.. McCombs
was so i'll hat he might be unable to
undertake any active campaign work.
He said it. was confidently expected
hat Mr.. McCombs would be able to
take up his duties as chairman after
a rest of a few weeks. He also
denied that any friction existed be-
tween Mr.. McCombs and other mem
bers of the national committee.

What the Holy Name Stands For.
To the Editor of the Evening Star
Sir-June q, at 2;So p. m, a meet
ing of the reverend directors of the
Holy Name Society was held in st.
Michael's Hall, Jersey City. 1t was
determined that the annua rally
parade would be, as heretofore, on
the afternoon Of the second Sunday
Of october, with the usual be%nediction
services. The rallying points desig-
mated are the same as last Year, and,
II is moreover resolved, hat all rules
respecting former parades should be
faithfully and strictly adhered to.
The following suggestions we're
made at the executive session: Here
after, instead of sending annual re-
ports OF tho different societies to the
secretary of the Diocesan Union, such

GOOD LOGIC SADLY BELATED.

TO RESIDENT TAFTS memorandum accompanying his sigma
ture of the canal bill is strong common sense and sound
American doctrine curiously belated. With unanswerable
logic the President dissects the claim of England that remission
of tolls to American vessels would controvert the spirit of the
treaty. He shows that inasmuch as many nations rebate tolls
to their shipping at Suez and are preparing to do the same at
Panama, England is asking us to put our own commerce at a
disadvantage on the canal which we built and own. The British
protest, as Mr.. Taft says, ais a proposal to read into the treaty
a surrender by the United States of its right to regulate its COM
MERGE in its own way and by its own methods, a right which
neither Great Britain herself nor any other nation that may use
the canal has surrendered or proposes to surrender" Why,
Grover Cleveland might have written that. What a contrast
is this red-bloodedu tterance to the weak and vaciIating message
in which Mr.. Taft wanted to give foreign nations an appeal to our
courts on a matter of plain and unassanable national policy and
right! The memorandum should have been the message in the
first place. And would Mr.. Taft have used this logic and vetoed
rhe Panama canal bill if it had come to him in the shape that his
reactionary friends in the Senate wanted it?

cussed, and, as it is a well known
fact, that we have sufficient talent in
our ranks for many, if not all eve
ming entertainments, it was decided
that all directors would send the
names of such gentlemen to Father
Corcoran, who will be able, if so
fortified, to select speakers and others
to furnish entertainment for our So
cieties gratis.
Your attention is also called to
what our right reverend bishop
stated in his letter of congratulation
to the Hudson county federation:
mo doubt it will unite our men more
thoroughly in their efforts to uphold
the principles of morality and of rue
patriotism, especially in view of the
dangers which threaten from the
spread of socialistic ideas. I"
For the honor and glory of the Holy
Name the federation Is organized,
and in it's work for that end 1t will
prove itself beneficial to the progress
and prosperity of Il holy religion.
Hence, 1t is that l hope the fedora
ton will be heartily supported by all
the members of the Holy Name So
cieties in Hudson county, and that a
| similar federation will be maintained
with equal success in every other
county in this diocese"
1t is worthy of note that our ban
quet in Hudson county was a great
| social success, and it is with peculiar
Joy that we notice that Essex county
is preparing for it's first annual gath
ering Of a like social function. Great
benefit is expected from these as.
semblages. Our men in different
towns and cities in the same district
arc made acquainted with one an
other. and Catholic social intercourse
is established, and, as a consequence
We become a factor in the community

HISGEN FOR T. r.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Aug. 26.-
Thomas L. Hisgen. formerly Indepen-
dence League candidate for president
of the United States, has issued a
statement in which he aligns himself
with the Progressive party. Hisgen
said in part:
When John D. Archibald testified
Saturday I was trying to discover Just
who Standard Oil was backing in the
presidential fight, and 1 have decided
that it is not Theodore Roosevelt. I
have therefore decided that from this
time until the close of the campaign
I shall devote whatever talents l may
have to contribute toward his cleo

A QUEER SENATE PARTNERSHIP.

OmOL1T1CS makes strange bedfelows," and no stranger
combination Of the two was ever seen in the Senate
than that Of the radical la Toilette and the reaction
airy Penose- A fellow feeling makes us wondrous kind. Until the
Chicago convention in June these two men were antipodal in
everything. The Wisconsin senator represented all that Penrose
was antagonistic to and was looked upon by him as a Jack Cade,
tendencies and was a servant of the special interests. It was a
disappointed presidential ambition that brought these two oppo-
sites together with a common object. Penrose had nothing to
lose by the temporary partnership. How about La Toilette?

PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD VALUES.

oTa HAT the asset value of the Pennsylvania railroad is probably
twice as great as its book value is the opinion of the
London Statist. In the last ten years, as the Statst shows,
the company has devoted $2OO,00O, 900 of profits to capital pur-
poses. Allowing for expenses, says the statist, the sum actually
expended upon road and property has probably been double
the sum charged to capital. And this calculation takes no a-
count of the enormous increase in the value of land. The most
valuable part of the Pennsylvania railroad system consists of the
road and terminal in New Jersey, which for years paid only
nominal taxes to the State and is very lightly taxed now. 1t
may be asked, therefore, how much the people Of New Jersey
have contributed to the wealth of the Pennsylvania railroad since
it absorbed the United Railroads to get a terminal on New York
hay.

NEGRO EDITOR HITS
AT 7. RS POLICY
Denounces Stand on Southern
Delegates and Declares
Race Will Fight.

NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-Reverdy G.
Ransom, editor Of the African Metho-
diet Church Review, vigorously as
sailed Colonel Roosevelt last night for
his negro policy in the new third
party. DR.. Ransom was the principal
speaker in Bethel A. M. E. Church,
West T~wenty-f1fth street, where the
121st anniversary of the revolt of the
plantation slaves in Hayti was re-
membered. Taking for his text the
words of the Prophet Isaiah, Lay
Judgment to the line and righteous
ness to the pIummet," DR.. Ransom
criticised Roosevelt. saying he had
buried 1.-The hope of the negroes which
he had raised so high, acting as exc
cutioner, undertaken and officiating
priest" In the Progressive party's ma
tional convention.
"Roosevelt's promises are as IN
stable as water" said DIR. Ransom.
His covenant with the people is a
mask for personal ambition; his doc
trines are used as beautiful traps to
catch the noble, earnest and aspiring,
but unsuspecting. He would make the
Constitution easy of amendment,
while openly advocating the nullifica-
ton of the fifteenth amendment. He
has proven faithless an6 the fight is
on.
There is no need for Mr.. Roose-
velt's party in the South to exclude
the negro from politics and let the
best white peopls' rule The Demo-
cratic party has been attending to
that business quite effectively for
more than thirty years.
"Mr. Roosevelt says he is acting in
the best interests OF the negro and
a excluded him from his party for
his W good. We no more agree
with him in this than he agrees with
those who would exclude him from
the presidency for the nations good"

Name practises all it breaches"
To not one, but to several of our
members, this question has been pro-
posed. The answer is, unequivocally,
most assuredly we do, and wherever
our voices can be raised to assist
Justice and right and to condemn
wrongdoing and whatever may be
baneful to society, we will be al
ways to the fore, remembering, how
ever, that we are powerless to pre-
vent evil even as the Master was
when He walked this earth in the
flesh and told the parable of the
''tares and wheat" Prohibiting Is one
thing, minimizing Is another; we
stand for the latter, for we know the
former to be impossible while the
Great God permits us the freedom of
our will.
To make our usual public act of
faith, let us march on the second
Sunday of October. 1912. to protest
against cursing and swearing and
blasphemy, and in general the evil
uses of the tongue. Under His BAN
ner let us array ourselves and prom
ise fealty to His cause that the name
of Jesus, the sun of the religious
world, may be glorifed forever and
ever.
Immediately on receipt of this let
ter the district director will call q
meeting of the directors in his 10.
cality. and proceed at once to make
arrangements, so that all our pro.
cessions nay move at 2:30 with music
MIA wing and banners dyfnR like on,

the Holy Name. Yours sincerely,
