WHERE CONTROL CENTERS.

Senator Root is one of Thomas F. Ryan's men.
He was suggested for the position Of chairman OF
the Chicago convention by Boss Barnes, of New
York State. He was nominated for that position by
a Republican national committee confessedly domi-
mated by Special Privilege, notoriousy out Of SYM
pathy with the people Of their party. He was elected
by convention which had been packed with stolen
delegates by this national committee.
Alton B. Parker is one of Thomas F. Ryans men.
He was suggested for the position Of chairman of
the Baltimore convention by Boss Murphy, Of New
York State. He was nominated for that position by
a Democratic national committee confessedly domi-
mated by Special Privilege, notoriousy out of SYM
pathy with the people of their party.
Boss Barnes and Boss Murphy have one thing in
common-servitude to the forces OF Big Business
ypifed by Ryan, They compete with each other
in only one hed-as to which may more faithfully
serve Wall Street.
Barnes and Root, Murphy and Parker-back oi
each combination stands Ryan; back of Ryan stand
all the Interests that prey upon the masses.
Never has the issue been more openly drawn a:
to whether this nation is governed owned, and mort
gagged by forces that center in New York city anc
Wall Street.

PEOPLE ARE CHALLENGED!

The Steam Roller at Chicago stole enough dele
gates to give Special Privilege control of the con-
venton.
The Steam Roller at Baltimore is gagging enough
delegates by the application Of the infamous unit
rule to give Special Privilege control OF the Demo-
cratic convention
In the Chicago convention when Special Privilege
wanted to control Kentucky 1t brazenly unseated
enough delegates whom the people had elected and
replaced them with manikins of its own to give II a
majority in the State delegation.
At Baltimore when Special Privilege needed
Kentuckys vote to support Parker, against one Of
Kentuckys own sons Ollie James, it applied the unit
rule which deprived all delegates from Kentucky
who represent the people from voting the way their
constituents and they themselves wish to vote.
The methods are different, but the result is the
same-the dsfranchsement Of the people.
In both instances the job has been engineered by
the Bosses operating behind the protection OF party
regularity.
There can be no longer any doubt that it is a
finish fight in this country between the people on one
hand, and the forces that would exploit them and
make popular government farce on the other.
Let no one be deceived, either, into believing that
because they vastly in the majority the people
have any odds in the fight.
When political parties, their own medium OF ex-
preston and tool Of government, are deliberately
and successfully stolen from them and turned into
an engine of oppression and msrule, OF theft, fraud
and suppression Of freedom OF speech and action
it is time for the people to realize that they must
fight. The issue cannot be ignored. The challenge
is too bold and nsoent to admit its being mistaken
for anything ese

SIMILARITY NOT AN ACCIDENT.

With all but four of Pennsylvania delegation
supporting all progressive propositions and pro-
gressve candidate Guffey, the national committee
man from that State voted in favor of Parker, the
candidate of Special Privilege.
With solid progressive delegation from Texas,
which unanimously requested its national committee
man to oppose Parker that committeeman, R. N.
tombstone (henchman of Joe Bailey, deRed the
wishes of his State and voted for Parker.
With soidly progressive delegation from Iowa
Martin ]. Wade, national committeeman from that
State, voted with the reactionaries in support OF
Parker.
The same situation prevailed in Arkansas, Ten
nessee, Oklahoma, and Mississippi.
Seven committeeman elected four years ago be-
fore present issues arose, deliberately and dehant
misrepresented the wishes of the people who com
pose the rank and file of the party in their State
and voted for Parker.
Were the Democratic national committee repre-
sentative of the people instead of being controlled
by Big Business, the vote would have stood 27 TO p
against Parker.
Had the national committee at Chicago beer

GRIMLY TESTING THE PEOPLE.

With what grim humor Boss Barnes and Charles
Warren Fairbanks must have penned that opening
sentence of the Chicago platform:
THE Republican party assembled in national con-
venton declares its unchanging faith in government
of the people, by the people, for the people"
They had just finished rejecting plank offered
by Governor Hadey pledging the party to direct
primaries.
The convention had just finished its Endorsement
of the action Of the national committee in unseating
delegates who had been elected by vote Of the
people and disfranchising whole States because they
had enacted into law government of the people and
by the people.
The convention had just been permanently or
ganized by votes of delegates against whom the
people of their respective communities had pro-
tested at the ballot box and in regularly organized
conventions.
Such jest at the expense of the people has not
been made since Marie Antoinette asked the hungry
mob why it did not eat cake, if it couldn't set bread
The Washington times., 1912-06-25
WHERE REFORM is NEEDED.

The hope of the reactionary forces at Baltimore
to win their fight to Parker as temporary chair
man rests with a number of reactionary national
committeeman, elected four years ago, but whose
States have sent progressive delegations to the
venton.
How like the situation at Chicago, where the
Steam Roller engineered by committeeman
wholly out of sympathy with their constituency!
The ultimate result of this will be that all busI-
connected with the organization of national
ventions will be conducted by the newly elected ma
tonal committee, fresh from the people, instead Of
by committee hanging over from the previous cam
paign and, if of the party in power, part Of the
national administration that seeks perpetuate itself
The Washington times., 1912-06-25

trolled by Big Business Senator Root would never
have presided at the Chicago convention, nor Taft
been nominated.
Gufey corresponds to Penrose, Johnstone to
Rosewater, Wade to Mulvane and so the parallel
might be continued.
II should become clear that it is no longer a
question Of Democrats and Republicans but an issue
between Bosses and Popular Government. Such
similarity in both old parties is not mere conci
dence II is the direct, logical, and mathematically
precise result Of Special Privilege controlling the
machinery of government

The Spirit Of the Constitution, the
Progressiyes, And the Caucasian

To the Editor OF THE TINES:
The clause the blessings of liberty"
in the preamble to the Constitution of
the United States, Is a misleading error
or all beings that are not fit for liberty
the unframed Caucasian Is the least fit.
Or, II that clause presupposed that each
state would make proper provision for
the prope. training of It's members, it Is
still an error. For no State has made
such proper provision. That clause
leads the individual to presume himself
at liberty to prey upon his fellow-men
other vicious Indulgence.
OF the two conspicuous errors IN the
body of the Constitution one was the
attempt to recognize the STAKEHOLDER 8
er was the attempt by an amendmert
to confer upon the negro a Caucasian
equivalent, Both of these attempts
were against nature-and they both
failed. But even with its impcrfections
the PRONUNCIATION of the Constitution
was one Of the greatest steps in prog
ress that the Caucasian race fas ever
made. And an opportunity for still
greater step Is now presented and rep
resented by the three several sets of
our present-day progressive3-the insur-
gents, the socialists, and the prohibit
tionists. But 1t is necessary for them
to pull together-as did the patriots
IN the American Revolution. But let
uS see "ndl progressive HlednS
and what its application involves.
Progressive comes from progress. and
the dictionary defines the latter word
as "a going forward. or the gradual
improvement in every respect that IL
possible to the nature of the individual
or of the race" This meaning closely
spproXimates that used by evolution
! lists to indicate change from old habits
| to those that more nearly conform &c
the new characteristics of an evolved
| species-in this case the Caucasian race
The term progressive is more compre.
| hensive and appropriate than many OF
! us now realize. For in It's proper apli'
cation It means that the Caucasian
| must make an effort to do his race
some positive good. as we'll as to re-
| frain from trying to do II positive harm
| And to do this involves the teaching Of
| a new creed and a new morality. Ir
| another letter I will point out some
| thing OF these in connection with the
| characteristics of the evolved Caucas
| ian.
For the information of n. S., woulC
state that I do not think that the eau
| casian race Is decaying nor that I N
| tend my letters to be 'lugubrious." Blu
| l try to be serious in showing that Il
our present social system we are no
, living up to our evolved estate.

THE APRIL.HEARTED ROOT.

Another genial and tender soul has long been
misjudged From the seat of Hamilton College,
alma mater OF Senator Root, and the center Of re-
cent centennial ceremonies, comes this informing
aftermath:
Contemporary writers are fond of emphasizing the
cold composure of the senior Senator from New York
Those who know him on the campus and have heard
him speak of the old ties with tears In his eyes will
tell that Elihu Root Is cold and Unconditional
They know better.
II is, indeed rather unusual to think of the senior
Senator in a sort OF April alienation between smiles
and tears, and it is pathetic to think how his i'm
pressonabe, not to say womanly sensibilities must
have suffered during all the years that he has been
misunderstood. Even yet the vision OF the great
alumnus playing at leap frog and turning hand
spring in the exuberance OF his boyish nature on
the old college campus seems like that simle of the
Psamist THE mountains skipped like rams and the
little hills like lambs" Even the eye Of faith can
scarcely picture him laughing, not softly in his sleeve
but uproariously, Numerically, at one Of his own
piquant stories, mayhap.
But now we know that behind the quick, vulpine
glance there is warm and sunny nature ready with
quips and quiddites, anxious to join In the chorus
Of the Bacchic lilt, I'VE Won't Go Home Till Morn
ing or sobbng heart out to the pious refrain, What
Shall the Harvest Be?'
The blight Of bashfulness has fallen upon him
and not until now, in the midst Of his silver gray
years. has anyone discovered that his Arctic aspect
Is but the Northwest passage
Unto the glowing India of his soul.
But now that we know him as he really is, hi:
mirthfulness becomes contagious. The people read
this excerpt from the new biography and like Catos
Roman augurs, cannot look into each others face:
without laughing.
