FRIDAY. JANUARY 81. 1913.
Recognizing the
Republican Party.

Standpat newspapers and reaction
airy individuals are talking very glibly
about recognizing the discredited and
beaten republican party. Men who
only few months ago were denounc-
ing LaFoilette, Cummins, Bristow and
Borah as traitors and thieves. are now
pushing these progressive gentlemen to
the front as the saviors Of the party.
Many OF these hopeful takers are now
referring to either LaFollette or Borah
as future leaders Of the republican
party and possible republican candi-
dates for the presidency in 1916.
OF course such talk from men who
have followed Taft and Cannon. PEN
rose and Smoot. really shows the hope
Iessness of their cause. A party lead
by Borah and LaFonette and advo-
eating the principles OF government
they believe In. whatever might be it's
name. would not be the republican
party.
On all large and important political
questions that will arise during the
extra session of congress these men
who are called upon to reorganize the
republican party, are sure to vote
with the democrats. The views of
these statesmen on the tariff, bank
ing and currency laws. the income
tax and the trust problem are not re-
publican but democratic views.
The republican outlook is not
bright, from a partisan standpoint.
Those who believe the progressive
party people win disband and join
the discredited republicans will do
well to study the last public speech
of Former Senator Beveridge.

Republicans May Lose
Committee Places.

Many well informed politicians be-
lieve that fight, or rather a move

sive party being recognized as the
reai minority party in congress and
that the minority places on the COM
mittees Will be given to members of
that organization in considerable
numbers, rather than to the old line
republicans.
It Is said in this connection that
however remote reunion OF progress
sives and republicans may be, the
democrats would like to prevent even
the possibility Of such an occurrence
and that recognizing the progressives
as a minority party, if not the min
ority party. would make such a coali-
ton practically impossible.
Progressive party leaders from Col
onel Roosevelt all the way down the
line. say there viii be no union OF
the two parties unless the republicans
turn progressive. This the leaders
like Taft, Root. smoot and Cannon
will never do.
