REACTION REBUKED

We are afraid that President Wilson
is in the way of achieving large
measure of unpopularity among Dem
ocrats of IL certain sort in Illinois.
Somehow or other, the president has
imbibed the notion that the members of
the Illinois legislature who voted for
Lorimer are not the kind of citizens
who would make good, reliable federal
officials, and it has leaked out that
their valuable services cannot be
utilized by the government. Since
this information seeped oil the way
from the White House to the curving
shores of the Chicago river there is q
large and luxuriant foliage of gloom
in various pal is of the "Sucker" state.
Lorimerism has carried many pen
alties in its Shiny trail of bribery and
political prostitution. 1t has damned
regulations, smirched characters,
scotched ambition. 1t revealed bri-
berries and corruptions SO glaring thai

ance of the political machines, the de-
based connections of big business with
gang politics. Itwas one of the many
but unexposed incidents of political
machinations of which the people has
only remote suspicion. When its in
famies were uncovered the agitation
for the election of United States SEN
ators by direct vote received tre-
mendous impetus which has resulted
in an amendment to the national con-
stitution providing for this essential
reform. This one great and important
advance, at least, came out OF the ex-
no .ures of Lorimcrism, and if for no
o,ner reason it was a good thing that
tie iniquities were SO pronounced and
real.

of special industries above the
demand of the nation?
The Commoner commends the
spirit in which Colorado's sena-
tors have addressed themselves
to the work of fulfilling the
pledges of the party, and is glad
to believe that they will consult
their democratic colleagues who
are striving to assist the presi-
dent in the carrying out of his
high purpose rather than senators
who are willing to jeopardize the
party's fate merely because they
believe that some industry in
which they are specially interest
ed may suffer injustice. The in
justice which the tariff has
wrought for so many years still
exist and that injustice will con-
tinue until the rates are mater
tally lowered. The senators from
the sugar-producing states can
not afford to make all tariff re-
form dependent on what they
regard as fair rates to a single
industry"
Eastern Colorado times., 1913-05-30

But now comes President Wilson
and fills the cup Of Lorimeristic woe
to overfiowing. The legislators who
betrayed their party and degraded
their personal honor are left 70 stow
in their own grease 80 far as federal
appointments go. In so many words
the president tells them they are pn-
worthy, because of their action in
voting for Lorimer, to be trusted with
employment in the federal service.
The price of their treason TO the
people Is isolation. They are told
officially what their own consoiences
must have told them many times, AID
of which their own people have accused
them in many ways and from U9ny
standpoints. The notorious ''jsck
pot' of the Illinois Legislature was
the guillotine oftheir own construction
which worked their decapitation.
In refusing official recognition to
those Illinois solons of the old system
the president is also teaching moral
to those solons of other states who are
inclined to trot in the same class. II
is very plain from all the president has
said and from what he is doing that
he is in no big hurry to encourage tho
reactionaries to resume their perni-
cious and disreputable activities In
the politics of the country. This un-
doubtedly will not bring JOY to the
souls of many near statesmen and
strong arm politicians, but it proves
that the president stands not only for
progress but for cleanliness in his ad-
ministration. Which is reassuriug
testimony-if it were needed-that We
have president who is doing precise
ly what he promised to do, and which
the people outside of the believers IN
Lorimerism and its counterparts In
other states had absolute confidence
he would do.-Denver News.

the ropes. The physicians work
ed over the stricken man for
eight minutes when they pro-
nounced him dead, but continued
their efforts to resusticate him
by artificial respiration for more
than an hour.
There were probably 10, 600
men in the arena when it be-
came known that McCarty was
dead. A few minutes before,
whetted by the lust of primitive
battle in the preliminaries that
had been fought. it had been a
houling mob. but the news quiet
ed the spirits of the spectators
and they filed quietly out Of the
arena shocked by the news of
the battle.
RECEIVES BLOW IN CLiNCH
Both men apparently were in
splendid condition when they en-
tered the ring. McCarty was the
first to climb over the ropes.
He was laughing and joking with
his friends and assistants, and
apparently in a confident mood.
A few minutes later Pelkey ap-
peared. Both men were cheered.
Pelkey, a strong local favorite,
received the greater volume of
plaudits; the men shook hands,
were photographed and the bout
started.
The men spared cautiously at
the opening, both handling them
selves well. There were several
mixups of no consequence, then
Pelkey jabbed McCarty on the
jaw. 1t was a good stiff blow
and Nc Carly WINGED under it,
but smiled. Then after about a
minute of fighting there was a
fierce exchange and a clinch.
In this clinch McCarty received
the blow that caused his death.

McCarty died as the result of the

THE COOPERATIVE
CREAMERY.

Cooperative creamery organizafloa
based on true cooperative principles
distributes it's profits on the basis OF
patronage and not on capital stock.
Capital stock, which is necessary to
establish such an enterprise should
receive compensation. a just rate of
interest must be paid out of any pros
fits accumulated, above interest on
capital stock and cost of operation,
which shall be divided pro-rata ac-
cording to patronage. Indeed such a
division would be only fair since the
success of the creamery business Is
directly determined by their patron
age.
There have been failures among CO.
operative enterprises, but with sufh-
cient patronage and proper business
management these would never have
occurred. The cooperative creamery
has been great success in Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Iowa, our leading
dairy states. Insufficient patronage
has been the cause of most OF the
failures. 1t is absolutely necessary
that there be on hand enough butter
fat so that interest on capital and cost
of operation will not reduce the price
to the patron below current prices.
Therefore creamery should not be
organized unless at least four hundred
COWS can he secured within convenient
reach of the creamery. 1t is also sd-
visable to have the patrons own the
capital stock so they, will stay with
the organization during unfair CON-
petition.
The organization should also get the
right start and be properly organized
under proper business management. If
group of farmers are interested, let
them call meeting and invite q re-
preventative from their agricultural
college or U. S. Dairy Division, to
attend aad discuss plaps of organ

cry, instead of dairy supply house
promoter.
The cooperative creamery is not as
popular here in Colorado as it should
be, chiefly because many have been
started prematruely or else we're
started by promoters who robbed the
farmers of three to four thousand dol
lars on buildings and equipment, thus
putting them out of business right in
the start. 1t is sure, however, that if
Colorado farmers will go into this "
terprise more advisedly the co-opera-
tive creamery will prove q great sue
cess as it has elsewhere,

McCarty Killed by a Knock
out Blow on Heart.

CALGARY, ALBERTA, May
24-Luther McCarty, claimant of
the white heavyweight cham
pionship of the world. today took
the count of ten from Referee
Edward Smith, of Chicago,
which marked him the loser in a
scheduled fight with Arthur Pei
key, and eight minutes later was
dead. His death was caused by
a chance blow delivered some
where in the region of the solar
plexus after exactly one minute
and forty-five seconds of fighting
time had elapsed. Arthur Pei
key tonight was arrested on the
charge of manslaughter by the
Northwestern mounted police
and released a short time after
wards on bail.
Pelkey's bond was $40, 900,
which was provided by Tommy
Burns and Fred o. Loves.
An autopsy on McCarty was
held this evening. Coroner Cos
telo swore in the jury and ad-
journed the inquest until Monday
afternoon at 4 o'clock. McCarty
was not medically examined just
before the fight and not since
last Monday when he was re-
ported physically fit.
There had been one or two
mixups of an inconsequential
kind, then come a clinch. Ref
cree Smith separated the men.
Both squared off, neither SEEM
ing to be the worse for the clinch.
Suddenly McCarty was seen to
double up in a crouching attitude.
To the spectators it looked as if
his crouch simply was fighting
pose. He crouched lower and
lower however, his eyes rolling;
then he collapsed and fell full
length on the floor.
DIES IN THE RING.
The referee, assuming that
Mccarthy had been knocked out,
stood over him to count off the
fatal seconds. 1t was the final
count for the young fighter.
Arthur Pelkey, winner of ,today's
battle at such heavy cost, stood
at one side of his fallen adversa-
ry. He scarcely could realize
what had happened. BY this
time the referee had become
alarmed. He called for doctor;
several responded. u

were called in to clear the ring

By Edward Heating,
Congressman4at-I,arge
From Colorado.

weekly report ana was ABOUT 10
put it in the maids when l was
handed a copy;6f Bryan's Com
moner ofsMay2Srd.
! found olethe first page an
editorial from the pen of the
Great Comrnoner himself under
the caption Sugar in the State
of Colorado" and l decided to
ask the editors of the hundred or
more Democratic papers in Colo
RADIO who have been good enough
to print my report every week to
substitute B,yan's editorial for
my contribution.
Colorado's senators have been
urged to abandon their party. re-
pudiate, their President and dis
regard the interests Of the great
army of American consumers and
to ally themselves with the SEN
ators from Louisiana who have
announced that they are for the
Sugar trust first and the people
of the United States afterward.
Bryan's answer to that plea
should be read by every right
thinking citizen of Colorado.
Here it is:
Sugar in the State Of Colorado"
1T is not often that The Com
moner has occasion to differ from
its esteem friend, ex-senator Pat
terson, of Colorado, but it feels
its duty to dissent from him in
the matter of the sugar schedule.
1T is outside of the purpose of
this comment to enter into an
argument upon the merits Of the
case. 1t is enough at this time
to say that the arguments which
j Senator Patterson presents. are,
from beginning to end, a repro
duction of the arguments that
have been made for a hundred
wears in. behalf of every industry
for which protection has been
asked, For century each in
dustry that asks for the privilege
of taxing the rest of the people,
has been accustomed to marshal
figures to show that a failure to
comply with it's demand would
mean the sure destruction of the
industry and ultimate suffering
to the country. ..-.
Mr.. Patterson's argument fol-
lows the protectionist line even to
the final warning that the reduc-
ton may only be temporary, and
that ''if' favored industry is de-
stroyed, the consumer will be-
come the victim of higher prices.
He says:
"That putting sugar on the
free list will make sugar cheaper
in the end, is justly open to chal-
lenge; for should free sugar de-
stroy or seriously cripple the
American sugar industry, the
last condition of the consumer
may be worse than the first. !"
And then he adds: q
But l make no issue on this
point only the future can deter
mine it.
This saving clause does not
save. If it is not intended as an
argument it ought not to be ad-
vanced.,s 1t is merely a specula-
ton, and indicates the extent to
(which Mr.. Patterson has allowed
3 shis advocacy of this particular
industry to lea him into the Ian
guage employed by the protect
ionist.,
