DeIving Into the Past

Our earnest progressive cOntem- pOrary, the Los Angeles Express prints on the front page in con- spicuous black-face type an extract from the republican national platform of 1908, highly and almost effusively eulogistic of MT. Roosevelt and the Express seems to regard that as a settler as conclusive proof that the republican party of today is not the republican party of four years ago and that the proper republican senti- ment just now is expressed through the progressive party.
 The Express seems not to have ob- served that the MT. Roosevelt of to- day is not the MT. Roosevelt of four years ago and that then he abhorred the things for which he stands now.
 While delving into the past, the Express might also have printed the opinion that "Theodore' entertained of will" four years ago and it also
 
 in which MT. Roosevelt then held Senator Root. Neither the president nor MT. Root has changed in four years
 Admitting that what the platform of 1908 said of MT. Roosevelt was true at that time, obviously the plat form of 1912 could not have reaffirmed that declaration without the repub- lican party having undergone as sweeping a change as that which has transformed MT Roosevelt.
 The opinion which a political party holds regarding any distinguished member of it, is likely to be evanes. cent and subject nome ntarily to re vision. Its quality of permanency de. bends entirely upon the future course of that member Such an opinion i:

There is a difference between a general truth and a specific truth. MT Abraham Spillers reply in the course of his naturalization examina- tion to a question by the court, that the presidents of the United States are elected by the republicans, is fine instance of the specific truth, subject, of course, to modification. But it had held water so long and reliably that to Mir Spiller it seemed to have the force of a general and unalterable truth. Not being a student of ancient history and having had a personal view of the political affairs of America for as brief a period as five years, MT. Spiller very naturally concluded that only republicans could elect president. Perhaps he supposed that with a broad and careless charity we tolerated the existence of such misguided persons as democrats, progressives, socialists and prohibitionists, to add to the gayety of presidential campaigns.
