CURRENT COMMENT
Says Bird Elected Walsh.

Before he went into politics Mr..
Charles Summer Bird was recognized as
one of the most exemplary citizens of
the commonwealth. Since then he has
lost in reputation only by reason. of a
lessened frankness in speech and deal
ings. But Mr.. Bird has made remark
ably good run. No other Progressive
candidate, in the length and breadth of
the land, has done so well. He Is the
only one under whose leadership the new
party has not slipped amazingly from
its record of 1912. With him it is
surely standing firm. Viewed from
some angles, it is actually making pro-
gress But he has failed to carry the
election, as he evidently believed he
would, and as his journalistic supporters
have steadily insisted.
1t would, however, be a mistake to
suppose that his canvass has been de-
void of organic results of the first mag
nitude. 1t has elected David |. Walsh
governor of the commonwealth, and
while nothing can be said against him
personally, the retiring executive has
undoubtedly told some plain truths
about the associates upon whom Mr..
Walsh must rely. Without Mr.. Birds
candidacy Mr.. Gardner, or any other Re-
publican, would have been elected, and 1t
is the Republican party that has given
the most liberal and pro-
gressive legislative code of any state in
the union. The party has made it, in
the words of George w. Gable, brave
soldier of the confederacy now residing
with us, "the model commonwealth of
the world"
That it is worth while to turn out of
power the party which has accomplished
this, in order to take chance on secur-
ing the rather vaguely conceived ends
which Mr.. Bird undoubtedly had in view,
is a question for him and his supporters
to decide. We cannot decide for them.
We know that the Republican party, |
clearly stronger in forty seven states of
the union than it was year ago, is
going forward to perform its necessary |
mission of opposition to the persistently

A GOOD EXAMPLE FOR LAZY
VOTERS


1t is fitting that the man at the head
of the nation should set good example
for the voters of the United States, SO
the presidents take great pains to go
from Washington to their home towns
in order to cast their ballots on election
days. Following the custom, President
Princeton, in New Jersey, his voting
place, considerable distance and requir-
ing practically the hours of working
day; and that in spite of the fact that
his administration was confronted by one
of the most serious problems likely to
come before it in four years--the trouble
with Mexico in which the United States
was an interested party. President Will
son might have been pardoned had he
stayed in Washington to await news
from Mexico City and, if necessary, to
call his cabinet into immediate consulta-
ton; yet he felt his personal duty to be
so strong that he travelled the long dis
tance to Princeton, although keeping in
touch with affairs of state. Therein,
President Wilson set good example for
those of us who have to travel as far as
a hundred yards in order to reach the
polling place. His action ought to shame
the stay-at home voters who might cast
their ballots without great exertion.
