OSCAR UNDERWOOD

The appearance of Oscar Underwood
here last night, in advocacy of the Deml
ocratic principles he has done so mud
to advance, was an event not only hipbl
gratifying to his party associates \
Louisville, but Of exceptional interest n
the community in general
Ii is not often that a man returns ID
the scenes OF his youth to speak will
such authority, from so commanding l
position, won on his own merit II lid
not been so long as the years ago-he h
not yet 50-since Oscar Underwood wsJ
schoolboy here; he comes back now
the recognized and applauded leader a
his party on the floor OF the National
House of Representatives, the head d
the great committee which shapes The
fiscal legislation of the country; a new
chieftain of Democracy who has arisen
IT crisis when the old party seemtl
all but loaderless.
Bravo, Oscar Underwood Il is a
bright day for Democrats when they are
fortunate 10 frd and quick to acclaim

ALABAMA AND
r1R. UNDERWOOD

But the present leader of the House
is not impulsive, In truth, that fact
explains his leadership. He is a man
of calculation Had he not been, he
could never have pilo,ed his party
through the difficulties OF the extra ses-
sion, His task then called for a calm
vision and single purpose. Had he
been a spellbinder and a scatterer he
would have wasted his opportunity.
Were Mr., Underwood to set his heart
on the White House and maneuver for
a stay under that famous roof he would
play hobs with all the reputation he has
Just acquired, His vision would be-
come confused, and everything would 20
by the board He could not serve two
masters, and his work in the House has
the first and highest claim on his at
tention.
This does not mean that Mr.. Under
woods name will, as the result of his
reply to his House colleagues, disap.
pear from the Presidential speculation.
OF course, il will not. It is there 10
stay with the other names now on
many pens and tongues. The matter of
the nominee is in the lap of fate, and
we shall all have to wait for the deci-
sion.-The Washington Sunday Star,
December, 1911

THE TAN TO WIN

The Mobile Register declares that
the relief of ninety millions of people
from tax extortion is the issue, and the
issue is personified in Oscar w. Under
wood. What more fitting, therefore,
asks this paper, than that the man who
is the personihcation OF the issue should
stand before the President who vetoed
the bills drawn by Mr.. Underwood seek
ing to give relief to the American peo-
plei What more fitting that the can
didate should be Mr.. Underwood, stand
ing for tariff reduction as against Mr..
Taft standing in defense of present tariff
laws? What more fitting for the Demo-
cratic party to nominate a man who can
wn-for this is the time Democracy can
win. Powerful political leaders Of
thought and those Journalistic opponents
of Democracy throughout the country
should take note of Mr.. Underwood.
They should investigate; and with party
loyalty frm--with sectional prejudice
eliminated, learn to know the man and
the principles for which he stands. The
Southern press, especially, should rally
with unhesitating vigor to support and
use their influence for the man who has
done more than any living Democrat to
reunite Democracy, and who can, as a
Southern Democrat in the White House,
establish forever reunited COUNTY,

UNDERWOOD AS A CANDIDATE

If Oscar Underwood, when he wa'

UNDERWOOD OVER AGAIN

The rapid rise of Oscar w. Under
wood in the discussion OF Presidential
possibilities is full of significance, and
may well cause CONSERVATION in the
Wilson, Clark and Harmon camps. As
a distinctive Souiherner, his boom espe-
cially is a menace to Wilson, who ap-
pealed strongly to the sentiment of that
section, in which he was born and spent
his early years. In the soundness Of
his Democracy, the statcsmanlike judg-
ment and moderation he displays in
dealing with the issues OF the hour
Mr., Underwood has no superior among
his rivals He avoids indorsing very
questionable issues to which Wilson
committed himself somewhat inconti-
nently.-The Troy Press, New York

WHY | AM FOR
OSCAR UNDERWOOD

q Because he is the strongest all
round man in the field;
(2) Because he is old enough to have
learned a great deal, and young enough
10 learn more;
90 Because he is a constructive,
practical statesman;
(4) Because he fathered the Farm
ers' Free List Bill, which was an in-
mcnse stride toward free trade, and a
measure that would have been magically
beneficial to our over-taxed people;
% Because he proposed and put
through Congress a drastic reform of
the Infamous wooden tariff; and also a
sweeping reduction in the cotton goods
schedule;
(6) Because he had the manhood to
defy the birmingham Board of Trade,
when it tried 10 intimidate him as to
tariff reduction;
o. Because he has introduced a bill
TO cut the steel and iron schedule
from so to so per cent;
(S) Because he had the courage to
oppose the Sherwood pension grab,
which the shirkers and skulkers, and
dcscr,crs, and bounty-jumpers deman~..
Champ Clark voted for the grab !:
Bryan has not had the pluck TO say a
word against it, nor has Woodrow
Wilson.
~ Because he has the sanity and
the spunk to tell the people that all this
talk about the initiative, referendum
and recall, in national politics, is
tommy-ro, Everybody should know
that the Constitution of the United
States would have to be radically

UNDERWOOD THE MAN
OF THE HOUR

But Mr.. Underwood's rise in public
favor has not been spectacular. His
is not the kind of popularity that will
decline II dawned suddenly but its
dawning was rather the awakening OF
recognition than the discovery of new
star. Mr.. Underwood and his ability
lad been there all the time, but they
had Dot been called into action, OPP
poriunity revealed the man and the
leader.

Mr.. Underwood's public record is I'M
usual for its clean brilliancy. II stands
without a flaw. Critics may search il
through and through and Mr.. Under
woods smile would never waver. His
party record is just as clear. His pri-
vate life is without a blemish.
lie is peculiarly fitted by nature and
training for the leadership of men and
the administration of executive func-
tions. He comes of good stock, if tina,
means anything in this peoples repub-

WIDE APPEAL OF UNDERWOOD's CANDIDACY

That Representative Oscar w. I'm
derwood is rapidly crowding to the wall
all other aspirants for the Democratic
presidential nomination, is the informa-
ton that comes from sources close to
the Alabama leader to-day. In fact, it
Is now a subject of open gossip about
the House that New York State is veer-
ing toward the Alabama member and
that Clark, Wilson and Harmon are los
ing ground in the chief pivotal State Of
the Union.
A member of the New York delega-
ton in the House, who is not person
ally an advocate Of the candidacy Of
Mr.. Underwood admitted in confidence
to-day that the trend Of sentiment in
New York city and New York State
now favors the Alabama leader. From

changed, before the present system OF
representative government and legsla-
lion could be changed for direct law
making.
When, do you suppose, we could elect
Congress that would give the people
the opportunity to vote away the pre-
negatives of Congresss
When, do you suppose, there would
he 81 States ready to adopt the new
system3
When, do you suppose, would the
small States be willing to surrender
their equality, in the Federal Govern
mentl
When Wilson and Bryan pirate of a
national initiative, referendum and re-
call, they make themselves demagogues,
Can either of them tell us how Direct
legislation can be applied, nationally,
in such a manner as 10 preserve the
sovereign equality of the small States 7
If either OF them can, ! should be
glad TO publish their plan.
1t will be time enough 10 talk about
national Direct legislation and the recall
after we shall have tried it, in the
States.

Alabama, also, comes confirmation Of
the fact that the Underwood boomers
are receiving most encouraging reports
from New York. These reports go so
far as to say that If the South will keep
Representative Underwood's name be-
fore the convention, New York State
may be counted on to fall into line after
the second or third ballot.
II the South can get over the ancient
obsession that Southern man cannot
be nominated for President and if the
South will keep the name of Underwood
before the convention, for a few ballots,
there are many wise political observers
in Washington and New York who are
confident that the New York delegation
will swing into line for Underwood

UNDERWOOD

Every public speech that Oscar w.
Underwood, Democratic leader of the
House OF Representatives, makes brings
him closer TO the people as a presiden-
tial possibility. What Congressman
Longworth, a Republican, said of him
at the dinner of the Pennsylvania So
ciety in New York on Saturday night
is coming to be generally felt by the
public.
Not for many years." said Colonel
Roosevelts son-in-law, has so forceful
a personality come to the front of his
party as the present leader of the House.
Not in my time, certainly, and not, as /
believe, in modern times, has the Demo-
cratic party developed man possessing
in so full degree the qualifications for
real leadership as it has this year in the
person of Oscar Underwood.eThe Ter
