THURSDAY, OCTOBER II, 1912.
SUPPORT THAT SUPPORTS.
Actions speak louder than words.

Actions speak louder than words.
For long time prior to the Baltl'
more convention there was great deal
of speculation INDUCED in as to where
Mr.. Bryan would throw his support
Some claimed that he would try to Sc
cure the nomination for himself; some
claimed that he favored Clark; WINE
Others predicted that when the proper
time came he would support wilson.
The Democrat early pointed out that
Mr.. Bryan was industriously kicking
stones out of Gov Wilson's way to the
presidency, and that helpful action
along this line Mt that time was more
important than mere professions OF
support. That Mr.. Bryan did help GOV.
Wilson, and help him most eilectualIy,
In time of greatest need, il matter OF
history.
or late there has been good deal OF
speculation M to Senator LA Toilette
choice for the presidency. Last week
report was started that he had come
out for Wilson; but it proved to be
without foundation. In this case, too
actions are more important than words
Mr.. La Toilette has done great deal to
help along the Wilson movement. Like
Mr.. BRYAN he has cleared u good many
obstacles out of the highway from Sea
Girt to Washington.
The Democrat does not expect that
La Toilette will go to the length OF
breaking party ranks t, help Wilson
But in the good providence prevailing
there il time coming when the lead
ing progressive Republican will sup
port the accepted leader Of democratic
Democrats to the great benefit and be
hoof of the nation. When Gov. Wilson
has been elected to the more respons-
ible leadership of President we expec,
that he will have the support of Senator
La Toilette in standing for equal rights
and against special privileges. When
the dictatorship of the Speaker was
overthrown in the national house OF
representatives, Speaker Cannon him
self said, " 1t was the followers of Bob
LaFollette that did it," It is to their
everlasting credit that they did it by
Gratis LaFolllette inspired the insur-
rection; and great victory was won
for representative government.
The support that counts is the sup
port in action that make for the public
welfare.

WHY Not?

One thing is plain about the cam
paign this year, and it is admitted in
both the Taft and Roosevelt camps
that the democrats are sure to control
thee House of Representatives and the
United States senate Then why not
elect Wilson to make the triumvirate

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE

How il Looks to an Average Voter.
To The Democrat: For everything
there is n season, and time for every
purpose under heaven
AS newspaper readers are now being
furnished with all kinds of political
food and dope, determined TO con
tribute my share to the general supply.
The Republican party served the in
terests, not wisely, but too well, Those
interests found it very effective in
strument in accomplishing their pur
poses. But, fine earthenware jug that
it was, it appears to have gone to the
well too often.
Insurgent Republicans, under the
leadership of LaFollette. made a brave
effort to save the party. A large cam
paign fund was guaranteed, several
single contributions amounting to ten
thousand dollars each. At this time
Roosevelt appeared upon the scene, and
showed that where LaFollette could
raise dollar Roosevelt could raise II
double eagle. Every one knows how
LaFollette's supporters deserted him
and went over to the man with the
longest purse and the loudest roar.
And the efforts to save the party, if
not entirely abandoned, at least re-
ceived n serious setback.
But who that loves his country can
shed tears when he reflects that both
factions in this difficulty believe in the
Anticipated doctrine that government
can create prosperity and wealth by
legal enactment, and that the con
suners and users of products through
out the country should be taxed for the
benefit of producers and manufacture
ers. Surely charity must be like the
bounty of heaven if it covers such II
multitude of sins. They profess to be
ever progressing and learning; but
surely they are never coming to a
knowledge of the truth.
They say the tariff is complicated
question, too hard for the average
voter When we say that it is not at
all complicated, but beautifully simple,
they do not agree with us. Apparently
they do not want to be convinced.
Why seekers after knowledge who are
so eager that they strive to search out
what even the Almighty has concealed,
should balk at this simple proposition,
is one of the things II democrat cannot
understand,
For the sake of harmony we may
admit that tariff bills are sometimes
complicated. That is when the tariff
is being revised by its friends, or by a
commission of experts, who use mys.
terious phrases, jokers, and interlinea-
tions. After such manipulation it is
easily understood that the question may
be too intricate for the average voter.
But II that is true we should haye n
system of taxation that is more easily
understood and that does not persist in
being SO complex and mysterious.
Whether the republican party is to
survive the present furry and regain
its former prestige is for the future to
determine. The lesson is that when
any party ceases to serve the people and
to benefit mankind there is no necessity
for its existence. especially in these
times when new party is liable to
spring mp over night.

Two Strong Men Stand,
Face to Face.

Charles e. Pearce, in his editorial
notes, written from New York City to
the Sun. Republic, thus pleasingly
describes what he regarded rs one of
the best happenings of the present
campaign;
One of the best happenings of this
campaign was when Bryan welcomed
Wilson to Nebraska ON Saturday of last
week. 1t was no feeble, formal, ordin.
airy welcome 1t was big, generous,
whole. souled, Western welcome. 1t
had the spirit of Bryan and the spirit
of the West. The Commoner and the
Governor stood up face to face, and
clasped hands in perfect understanding.
Kipling must of had such scene in
mind when he wrote
For East is East, and West IL West
And never the two shall meet,
TIL brothers all shall brothers meet
At Gods great Judgment seat
But there il neither East nor West
Border, nor breed, nor airth
When two strong mon stand face to- face
Though they come from the ends of the
earth"
Mr.. Wilson said in part: Il am
proud to come to Lincoln and render
my tribute of respect to the great
champion of liberty who set the Demo .
crat party free ut Baltimore. III as
result of that convention. was the
choice of the convention. my respon
sibility is all the greater to live up to
the standard to which Mr.. BRYAN
brought that body of representative
Democrats. | am proud to stand
shoulder to shoulder with him."
He was speaking to an immense
audience in the Lincoln Auditorium
and not single one of these sentences
We're uttered without producing wild
applause. When the terrific yell that
greeted the last sentence had subsidized
the Governor undertook to 90 ON with
his regular speech,
Now, ladies and gentlemen, what
is there to doY" he began, but loud
voice to the right of the hall replied
Vote for Wilson," and pandemoniuu
was ON again.
Bryan said III part: Mr.. Wilson
has shown courage that not one man
in a million has shown. Let me ask
you to do twice as much for Wilson a.
you ever did for Bryan, For have "A.
much at stake in this fight as he has
and you have as much as | have"

COAL PRICES GO UP
Independent Operators to Realize
Fortunes on Present Jump.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Oct. 1.-THE cost
OF coal has taken another jump and
independent operators are to realize
fortunes on the prices demanded of
the consumers. Stove and nut coal
sizes were sold by independent opera
tors for $685. ton (. o. b. at the
mines.
This is an advance of one dollar
over what has been considered a good
price for the commodity except in
times OF strike and coal famines.

In their night clothing by dropping from
